STRONG CASE IN POINT.
Atlantic Seaboard Workmen Get No
Advantage From Increased Cost
of Their Productions. =.

Frederick Seymour. a Democratic
lawyer, nominated for Congress in
New Jersey, in his letter of acceptance
makes Il practical plea for the issues
raised by his party, addressing himself
directly to tradesmen and working men
of New Jersey.
With the statement that the interests
of New Jersey are largely manufactur-
ing he asserts that Tin common with all
the seabOard States it is hard hit by
our present tariff on raw materials
which enter into the various processes
Of domestic industry and on articles
partly made up, which are virtually
raw materials, and on animals and
foods,
After pointing out the various arti-
Giles adversely affected by the tariff he
turns to the relations of the tariff to
the labor question, pure and simple.
with this interesting and irrefutablc
argument:
"The labor question and the tariff are
closely connected. but in q very differ.
ent way from what our opponents say.
While no Federal law can directly raise
wages, the Federal Government can as
certain the facts, and can make plain
the general principles to be derived
from them. and can settle to the ac-
ceptance of all men that raw materials
and coal are dearer on the Atlantic
coast than in the great interior manu-
featuring centres. that the seaboard is
the best place to manufacture for the
export trade, that the cost of labor in
manufactured products is less in the
United States than anywhere else in
the world, that the tariff on most man.
ufactured goods is twice and. in many
Instances, four times the cost of labor
in the product. that the tariff is excess
sive and injurious. that it is the direct
cause of part-tlme work in our factor
les, that the cost of living is increased
by the tariff. and that the increased
cost of manufactured goods does not so
to labor. and having established these
facts may publish them"

For Voters to Decide.

Professor Wyckoff. of Princeton Uni

account for his tariff vagaries and de-
clares that the industrial prosperity
Of this country has been achieved in
spite of protection, and at the cost Of
incalculable evils consequent upon pro-
lection.
The voter should decide IL he is sat-
isfied with the greatly increased cost
of living. which the protective tariff
and its monster child. the trust, have
brought about. Another anomaly over
which thoughtful voters should ponder
in the workings of this wonderful
prosperity producer-the TARIFFS that

POOLING THE FARMER.
Rooscvcit's Letter Drops Into the
} Old Republican Pretense,

The Republican party hes for years
been trying to delude the farmer and
the workingman into the belief that
the present tariff makes them better
off; that is, that 1t makes the American
wage Garner or farmer richer to pay
heavy taxes-taXes on all that he
wears, his tools, on his agricultural
machinery, on the nails and wood that
go into his house, his bed, his table
and his coffin, on his swaddling clothes.
his wedding garments and his shroud.
1t is pure pretense that fifty-two
per cent. Of the American farmers
crops ere used as the manufacturers
raw material. 1t is characteristic of
the Presidents letter of acceptance
that he does not say tina. raw cotton
makes more than half of the products
of the farm used in this way, and there
is no reason why this fact should have
been emitted unless the assertion
would have made the whole statement
ridiculous.

The admirers of our White House

Especially opposite to the trend of the
times and the fell spirits who are striv-
Ing to force that trend were the words
OF Right Rev. j. Percival, Bishop Of
Hereford, in sermon preached in Bos-
ton last Sunday. He made a powerful
plea for universal peace, and CON
demned wars brought about by politi-
clans or rulers to satisfy pride and per-
sonal ambition.
Looking around" said Bishop Per-

"A lesson that we have to learn Is
that a selfish war, a war of greed, a

SURPLUS AND DEFICIT.
Comparison by Bryan to the Credit
OF Cleveland's Administration.

Speaking of the panic of 1898. VIII

sue of the COmmoner:
"The first indication of its coming
appeared November II, 1890, when
the New York Clearing House AssO-
citation voted Its certificates to banks
in need of assistance. November II
the Boston Clearing House did like
wise. Barker Bros. & Co., bankers,
Of Philadelphia, failed with liabilities
of $5,000,000. Mr.. Bryan then gives
long list of failures, beginning with
the United Rolling Stock Company, Of
Chicago. November %, 1890, and end
ing with that of the Spring Garden
Bank, of Philadelphia, May s, 1891.
Then came the Homestead and other
great labor troubles. followed by the
election of Cleveland to the Presiden.
cy. In May, 1893. there were more
failures, and finally the raids on the
United States Treasury. January II,
1894. the Administration ordered q
$50,O00,O00 bond issue. August 1,
1894. the Wilson tariff went into eff
feet"
Continuing with lis most interest
ing and timely retrospect, Mr.. Bryan
says:
ut will be observed that the Cleve-
land Administration ordered the $780,
100000 bond issue January II, 1884,,
That was seven months before the
Wilson bill became a law. Perhaps
1t is not significant. but in view Of
Mr.. Roosevelt's claim. 1t is at least
interesting, that the first indications
of the panic occurred November II.
1890. little more than thirty days
after the Mckinley tariff bill became
law. From that date the panic ragged
and while its effects were felt for
several years, 1t reached its worst
stage in 1893 and during the early,
days of 1894, during all of which time
the Mckinley tariff law was in effect.
SIT may not be out of place to point
out that when the Democratic Admin
istration surrendered the reins of gov
eminent, March 4, 1889, there was in
the Federal Treasury the largest sur.
