rHE usuAL AnouMENr.

Little is to be gained by controversy with high tariff paper. though some times the desire to argue a bit with them becomes irresistible. The Bessemer Weekly is such paper because 1t be- lieves, we presume. that high tarif would be god for Bessemer and its sur roundings, and 1t argues the question in the style which has become practically stereotyped and always ready for use by the protectionists. For example:
 The first concern of government is to protect the people, not only from foreign invasion. but from foreign competition In our markets, until our own industries can be placed upon the basis of meeting this competition.
 If 1t is the concern or duty of the gov ernment to protect the people it would abolish the tariff entirely. If The Weekly will study up little on statistics and see the small number of people en- gagged in manufacturing industries. com pared with the balance of the population it will hardly talk so glibly about those manufacturers being 'the people" The people. by an overwhelming majority. are those who have to pay for the pro- lection enjoyed by the few, and they do this by paying an extra price for every protected article they use. That is the way the government is caring for the people under our present laws.
 And the talk about their protecting ttax, hn pI r rpd upon the basis of meeting this competi- tion" is absurd The Weekly should know, and doubtless does know, that the great corporations. 'the trusts" if you please. are always on the alert to head off any legislation looking to reduc- | tion of tariff duties. The horseleech | hath two daughters, crying Give. give. | says the proverb. and these trusts and combinations are very near relations of l the horseleech, If they are not his daugh- ters and the horseieech in America is protection. His nav is never full and his greed never satisfied, and those who have to pay the prices which he fixes on all protected articles are the victims upon whom the leech grows fat. When he admits that he is able to live with out protection we may as we'll put our ears to the ground to catch the blast of the last trump.
 And our Bessemer contemporary in- dulges in an equally fallacious argument when it argues that If any line of manufacturing is so profitable or by reason of protective duties becomes so profitable. what flinders any one from engaging in 1t until home competition brings down the price?" This argument is puerile, because The Weekly knows that it takes large capital to set up any kind of manufacturing plant that can com pete with the large concerns which have become so rich and powerful that they can and do freeze out any small con cerns which undertake to interfere or compete with them. To talk about any individual going into the manufacturing business in competition with these pro- tected barons Is about as sensible as ii would be to talk about an individual en- tering into competition with the United States in conducting military operations There is no valid argument that will
 bolster up high protective tariff.

THE ALTA HAS HE ORE. !"

Readers of this paper have during the
last three months been made familiar
with the name of The Alta Mines Com
pany Our advertisements have recited
with minute detail the facts regarding

Let Us state, once pfbre. the principal

ton mill. equipped with the most mod
ern machinery. as 100000 could build.
1t has two aerial tramways, costing $50
600 and saving many '"i'"ts daily in the
transportation of ore from mine to mill.
3. The Alta has the largest unfailing
water supply controlled 10y any mine in
its district. owning in fee simple three
lakes on Silver Mountai1. above its mill,
having an area of about 81 acres.
