This definition is a fair and Stank one, and I seeeptit. A revenue tariff is, therefore, each a one aa will produce the largest revenue from the lovrest duty. Toe lowest, rata of duty will meouraee importations, diminish homo production, and inevitably increase tha revenue ; It will at- necessity check competition at home aid send oar merchant abroad to-bay ; it affords no , ytutauHunu awt even incidental, tor the very )nrtant yon . discover that such doty favors) the hams producer, thai, instant yon discover that importations wwi revenue are cheeked, anC that oar own producers ere ahlo to control the home market or a part of it.

This objection would be worthy of airious cons vie ration it it were true, but, as bat been demonstrated over snd over sain, it is without foundation ia fact. Wherever the tirelsn product has successful competition at homo the duty is rarely paid by the convcnicr.

Suppos-' ina for example, there was a tax upon tea and on sc.

At 10 cents a pound 89,000,000 and spward would have gone into the Treasury, every dollar of which would have bean paid by oar own people. Take sugar, as another example. We produced last year in this country about 8 per cmt of whit oar people consumed. TbadatyeoBsctejI from im parted sugar amountad to 6,,0. The d-mjetic prodoctiun was so teiawisiderable as compared with the domestic consumption as to have bad lit lo, if any, appresfable effect upon the pries Ut the consumer, and therefore this sum was almost wholly paid by ovr own cittsauavand the coat of sugar, to the American conaomer, btcanse ot the insxleaaata home supply, U prius ically the foreign price, doty added, the domestic prodnc tfc being s small contrasted, with the domestic demand that it fn no wise controlled or influenced the priei. The price to as is fixed by the S3 per cent, which came from abroad, plus the amount of the doty enflseUd at ciistvavbouae, ft wpukj hsye bean other

wise 1f the bulk of onr consumption was produced at home. It yon take any Anieriean production which ht large enough to suppl" Uio domestic demand the effect is different. 'Xhon the foreign production must undersoil tho 1 onie production in order to get a foothold in this i norket, and (horefom the foreign producer is willing to surrender tot whole duty, or a consideiablo part of It, consea'Jng to less prottta for the mice of extending his market , with the hope of ultimately destroying home competition. The rani question, therefore, is whether in raising money to supply tho government needs we should have tbxaghttul concern ot the Intaustriai interos a of the people we represent, or, discarding ever; other consideration shall adjust onr duties upon tho revenue principle to soouro revenue, and revenue only. The, money mast bo raised, and in raising it the protectionist is mindful ot the interests of oox own people. The tariff reformer is considcrato ot everybody else's interest Lu, aurowo. I can not nuderstiuid why bo loni; astaxation mast bo resorted to (and that will be the case so long aa governments exist) It should not be raised npon tho foreign artlelo which competes with the -domestic article, and thus discriminate ia favor ot our awn and against tue foreign, rather than to admit to oqunlity in onr markets untaxed and npon equal terms vita our own producers, the products of onr torolgn; vlVMta:

The protective system hot Invokes thaligby est Jaw or natiire &naii ui u-Kuytn .jwu-hv. There is every reason, founded in justice, -vvhyi the American prodncer should in every sous) itutional way be favored as against the fondga producer whose products comiwte with his. This is is our natural market ; wo have made it. We have made it after a century of strangle. We have made it after a cost of apital and brain and mnacle. We have prewrvod it against, foreign wars and domestic conilicts, at a great SKcridce of men mid money. The foreign tiro, dueer has contribut d nothing to the growth or development of the country. Whatever itit! uonco he hi i exerted has been against us snd to our detriment. Ho has nothing in common with us. He is without tho fariwUotloa of oiur laws. He cannot bo nached by the tax-gatherer. Ho is exempt from a& civil -obligations in ovorypart of the republic. We can make no reo.ul jit.ion upon him, cither in peace or in war. Onr mode of reaching him ia through the product he would send to our markets. Wo can demand ot him that his merchandise ahull make contril ration to anr Treasury l( ho -would enjoy the nsoof onr markets. We can make him servo us in no other way. In the case of a revenue tariff, as ; have ABE YEZ SQDKI: minted eut, his product never boars the burden. Whatever wo pat npon it is borne by onr own neopie, and in no wise shared by him. This .sriueinle of caring for our own Is founded upon the highest authority, human and divisa It commsuces with the family, extends up through the com m unity, to the State, and at last to the nation. Then is no city ia the country ia any section that does not invoke this principle in the administration ot municipal government lot the profc-ction and encouragement of its ownciifzsns. The itinerant vend it Is taxed in every oily of the htnd. If he would expose his wan upon the streets ot Atlanta at public auction I doubt not the ciky government compels him to pr.y a tax for the privilege of dotig it, and that tax is added to tha ordinary revenues of the city to assist in meeting its obligations. Now, why is this doner T'pon exactly the some princ iple that we tax the foreign competing product under the system ot protectiou. It is done to rotoot the resident merchants of your city, wl.o are with yon always, within yoiu- jurisdicttcii, subject to your laws,.contributinc to the weal h and progress ot your city, pay lug taxes to adorn and beautify it, paying taxes to support your public schools and make public improvements. The itinerate vender baa no sued relation to vour community. Be is no, part of your political organism. He comes and goon; ho is act a tax-payer; ha shares in none of toe bnrfejis of' yottr people; he is a free-trader, who looks npon your mar hut as much his and aa open to him as to your own tradespeople. Tour city government toxiishim to diminish the burdens borne by your own citirens. This is protection, simple and pure, and la the exact character of that whljh we would apply to foreign nations seokhui onr markets. Oar fathers recognized this principle. It was emphasized in the sec and act over passed by the Congress of the I Tailed Btatos. The rinctag-words of that doclarati on for industrial indispendenes I wish might ibid alodgsiont in every Amorican heart: Whep.eas, It ia necessary for tho sujmort of the Government, for the discharge of t liu debts ot the nation, and tor tho cneoumgumtiat and vroteution of manufacturers that du'iios :bo levied on imported goods, wares and mnrchandise. A more positive declaration in favor of the protective system it would be ciifficult to find iangnage to'expresa. This was the first i H)ortant legilutive declaration auder tho redurai Const itation. The only othor law that preceded It was that of fixing the oath of otl'ica of certaic Federal officials. Itwasmado even before Witsh ington was inaugurated. It BiibaorxuHintly roceiv od his .sanction, aud it io a foot not without signiiicance that his appro vid was given to . it on t. day memorable in Auicricau history, tha jthail July, nm. It had the approval of Jam en 'Madison, Bufoa King, Better Sherman, Tramb iU, Lee. and a host of other ictt&ing men from all part1, ot the Union. Additional tariff legislation was hod ia 1799. 8ome duties were Inereated, Tho journal of tho House of Representatives discloses the f set tba: of the thirty-nine vot s given in favor of tho bill twenty-one were from the Southern States. 0! the thirteen votes against, nino woroirom th--New Ensland Stites, three from the Su itbcm States, and one from the Middle States. It will thus be seen that we are largely indebttd to the South for tho Inauguration aud estebliabment o! the protective system in the United States which has for the most part govorue l oar legit lotion since the formation of our government. For nearly' sixty sixty years of oar national lif-t th: s principle in its f lncss has been roeoynijo in oar laws, and whenever recognised it lm been accompanied by commercial aii'l industrial development, stimulating now enterprises, ami securing prosperity to the masses without r. parallel in tho world's annals. The revenue tarirt periods ht onr history hav been periods of greatest financial revulsions an-' industrial deoadouce, wont and poverty amou the ncopie, private cuterprlios chocked, on-: public works retarded. From 1833 to 1 HI, undo the low tariff legislation then prevailing, business was at a standstill, nud our merchnnts owl traders were bankrupted, our lndustri -s wcr. paralysed, our labor remained idle, and our capital was unemployed. Foreign product crowded our market i, destroyed domestio oom petition, and, as invariably follows, the p-ice c r commodities to eonsumerB was appreciable raiwal. It is an instructive tact that every pant . tjlfs eoontry has ever oxperioneod has b n prccededby enorjaons importations. From ISt'.i t . IH0I a siniiiar sittvttleu was prcsontel under the low tariff of that period. Contrast t.hl s perio with the pcr.od from 16) to 188' tbo K rmc under a revenue tariff, the latter under a pixitet tire tariff.

This advancement is tho world's wonder. Tho nitlonsof the earth can not furnish such a splendid pi ogress In any age or period. We defy a rovenuo tadll policy to present such an exhibition of material prosperity aud industrial development. Arts, science and literature -have hold their own tn this wonderful march. We ore prosperous to-day beyond any other peo ole. The masi-'s ore bettor cared for, batter provided for, mori self-respecting, aud moro independent that ever before in our history, which ctn uot be said of tho masses of other countries. One of tho iitrikinr differences between a reven lo tarilf and aprotoctive torift is that the former sends the uonoy of ils people abroad for foreign si.ppllen, and Heoks out a foreign nuukot. 'Che latter lceeps tho money at homo among ur own peoplo. cbviilating through the arteries of trade, and create a market at homo, which ii always the best because the most reliable. Ono of tt a chief complaints against the proi tective system-is its alleged hindrance to forolga trade ana i. foreign market for ourownps-oduots. It is arguot that if wo conld import raw material from other countries free, and manufacture such raw material into products for nso, wo could export them at great pront and thus secure a standing in the markets of tlie world. This story is wholly, as I believe, illusory. It is without substance. We have an ovamplo of irce raw material in a certain lino of maniUBctures t'tat of leather for booty, shoes, etc., otc. In 1373 hides and skins wore mode free so that our manufacturers could import them witlmt custom house burdens. Thoy have had "fine trade" in their raw material now for sixteen years. Tho industry has been an exceptionally successful ono, and you cau not avoid bein-r t. tupriscd when I say to you that in those sixteen years wo have been able to export but $ per cot it, of the It oiler production of tbo aounlry. But if f:oo raw nintorial be iiocosstTy to secure an oxport trade and the foreign markets, then I answer that our manufacturer to-day havo BUbsi.t.iitlal free tt'ddo in foreign raw materials which they make into tho finished product in tbo I'nilcd Htatos, provided th y export it, Kootions 3,019, 3,020, 8,021, and 8,0 .9 of the I nlted States Ktatutes providofor thonnnission of datios tin all foreign materials used In inanufa'jturing lor tho oxport triulo. The lair is positive, that all articles mauufacturod tor export from imported materials, upon whici duties have been paid, shall, when exported, bo entitled to a drawback of 90 per cent, of tie duties aid on such raw materials. Some uso lias been mado ot those laws. The -ri mission 3f duties in 11 paid upon imported material manufactered for freltn markets amounted to &!,!!.,- OL'6. On sjmo articles tho drwhack is equal to the daty paid, but in no instance whore articles aro imported "to bo manufactured hero and sent abroad is tho duty to exceed 10 per cont. And yet wo aro gravely told by tho tariff reformers that we cauuot reach foreign n arkola on account of the higt. tariB on tlie raw material, when,' in tact, for foreign trade, foroign raw materials aro practically froo. This principle was recognized ns early as tho administration of Gcorgo Washington, and has been cnliirged aud uindo applicable to all imported m vtorisls, tuo drawoacks varying from 90 to lop per cent- What bctioinos, thin, of the cry f ' r f ree raw matcrl Is hi the presence of this fact? Tbd truth is, wo tiro not so much ooncorm d uhnut the foreign tnarkot as wo iiro about the home murket. Tho latter is tho host, and we havo not yot boon ablo to control it, and until wo do. that should lio our chief concern ; but if any of oar peoplo aro sighing 'or a foreign marl et, rmd vuluoitmoro bUlily than our own, thoy can import foreign raw material practically tr-'O of duty, aud afttr advaminj into the hig1i r forms of ltian'ifacturo can go out end posses the world's markets. Taxed raw luatoriais do not stand in their way, and It is hypocrisy to claim otherwise. "The uinrliets o tna world in ourp oaojit condition aro a snare and a delusion. Wo will roach ilium vhonovor we can mdersaU competing nations and no soonsr. Tariffs du not keep us out, and free trade will uot make it ca tier to enter tl em. i-rfjt me give you a brief oxh'bit of smnoof our foreign trade, what we buy nud what wo sell In the ycarewU-.ig June')).
