WAGES AND THE TARIFF.
Contention % Free Traders That Il
Set at Naught by Existing
Conditions.

One Mr.. Brickett writes 10 the Bos-
ton Herald. assuming that the tariff
on watches amounts to more on the
output of certain watch company
than il pays for wages. The conciu-
sion drawn. both by Mr.. Brickett and
the Herald, Is that the railway men
and others requiring watches have 10
pay this amount for the timepieces
they use IN addition to their cost. It
has always been the contention OF the
free traders. says the Lowell Mass
Citizen. that high duties so stimulated
home production. that II soon reduced
prices beyond a profitable point. and
soon ruined home industry. II the
watch business Is so tremendously
profitable, why do not more peopls
make watches? Capital Is always
seeking remunerative Investment. and
matchmaking r. not monopoly.
Whenever a trust is kept alive by
heavy duties on foreign competing
prcducts-as Is no doubt true In some
cases-then Is the time to ham-string
the trust by cutting down the tariff.
But there are modifying circumstances
even here. II ham-stringing The trust
az the same time knocks out a large
number OF Independent industries IN

Anti Dog League.

Although the dog Is generally ac-
cepted as being the truest friend OF
the human race. he has his enemies
who are loyal to their hatred. An ef-
fort Of these people TO get together
and give force and direction to their
antipathy has just begun. having its
origin with Ambrose Bierce. the es-

the situation like a brick ship in a

telligence TO fawn upon his master

OF the attention.. but that Is a matter
Of thrift and signifies no superiority
