WAGES AND THE TARIFF PROTECTION THAT DOES NOT PROTECT. Pianos and the McKinley Tariff—Under Thia Glorious (?) Protection Myetem the Hngwr Treat Will Make a Profit of 825.000,000 Per Teat Working, ui the Tariff. John De Witt Warner represents in Congress one of the largest manufacturing distrlots in the country, the Eleventh New Ydrk City District. The workmen employed in the factories are intelligent, and understand the effect of the tariff on wages. During the debate On the Springer bill, Mr. Warner thus described the labor question as his constituents understand it. The labor question, Mr. Speaker, is one in which I feel a peculiar interest. In the first place, sir, I come from a district which, in the amount of wages paid for skilled labor each year, and in the extent and variety of its industries, is perhaps the greatest manufacturing district in the United States; more than that, I come from a district whore there is perhaps a more thorough organization of skilled labor on an intelligent and independent basis then in any other district in the United States. The wage-earners there, sir, are perfectly aware of what there is in this tariff matter. They know perfectly well what it means. They see a ship coming in opposite the street in which they live and from it coining, without any duty, the men whom their employers can hire to take their places—free trade in flesh and blood. At the same time they see on the decks of that ship goods they want, but are not flowed to buy until they have been through the customhouse, In order to make them take the alternative of buying foreign goods at higher prices or paying an additional bonus to their employers. And they have sent me here by a majority of between 8,000 and 0,000 to say to my colleagues in Congress and to wage-earners all over the land that they do not want any protection. All they want is a free field and no favor and the same right and privilege to buy whatever they need wherever they can get it cheapest, as their employer now has to buy the labor that crowds hither duty-free from foreign nations. They are not afraid of fair competition, sir. They are ready to meet it from any quarter. What they demand, however, is fair treatment. They demand, sir, the chance to get tbe full value for their wages, and not to be compelled to expend them at the great national pluck-me-store of the protected industries that our tariff has built to fleece them. . It is fair, too, that on Behalf of the manufacturing employers in my district I should make'h brief statement. Many, if not the majority of them, are engaged in what are known as protected industries. A large proportion of them are enthusiastic Democratic reformers or free-traders. And of the small minority who still vote with the Republican party and who profess allegiance to the doctrine of protection, there is but an insignificant number who do not frankly admit that, so far as their own business is concerned, they would be better off were there po tariff whatever. The Game In Up. The sugar trust, now that it has secured complete control of all of the refineries in the country, and- expects to make a profit of over $25,0d0,000 per year by advancing prices, has stirred up a great deal of excitement among those high-tariff papers which, when the McKinley tariff was being discussed, insisted that only raw sugars should be put on the free list. They wanted to let the trust get its share of the taxes which are wrung from the people by the tariff, and so induced McKinley to leave a large duty on refined sugar. But now that the sugar .trust is collecting its share of the tariff tax, these organs find fault with it because it does not wait until after the Presidential election. The Manufacturer, the ororgan of the high-tariff Manufacturers’ Club, of Philadelphia, calls the trust to account as follows: “Within a few months the political parties will enter upon one of the most important campaigns in the history of the country. The contest will be made chiefly upon the issue of continuance of Jariff protection to American industry as that system is exemplified in the McKinley act. The men whose function it is to maintain the cause of protection before the people, in the press and on the platform, have intended to present as an important part of their argument the fact that the removal of certain of the duties from sugar, by the McKinley act, has conferred large benefit upon consumers without injuring any domestic industry. This is a fact that has come within the personal experience of everybody, and it should have great value in commending to the people the now tariff law and the principles embodied therein. But, before the campaign has begun, certain refiners of sugar, protected in their operations by the tariff law, propose to put the entire refining industry Into the control of a trust, which shall use the monopoly thus obtained, to force up the prices of sugar. Congress has provided that many millions of revenue heretofore obtained from sugar duties shall be diverted from the public treasury and be given to the people. The trust, unless the duties given to it by Congress for a wise and fair purpose, proposes in turn to divert a portion of this money from the pockets of the people to the pockets of the members of the trust. “Brethren, we say to you that, if the protective system is to be employed for such purposes as this, the game is up. No champion of thatsystem can succeed, even if ho were willing to try, In commending to "the people, at one and the same time, the protective system and the sugar trust. It is quite impossible to expect the nation to regard with enthusiasm, because it proposed to reduce the price of sugar, a law which enables the sugar trust to defeat that Intention. What the purpose of the act is, consumers do not so much care. The thing that appeals most strongly to them is the actual fact that sugar prices have fallen; now, if sugar prices shall again advance under the manipulation of a protected conspiracy against the people, it will be useless to eommend conetftners to the purpose of Mr. McKinley. They will conclude, and regretfully, that If the whole benefit of the home duties is not to come to them, it should go once again into the Treasury of the United States. The opponents of the protective system will have placed in their hands, at the most critical mo.ment in £he history of American protection, a potent weapon with which to assail the protective theory: and we venture to say that there is small reason to doubt that the result will be overwhelming defeat for the protective system. ; », in view of every man in the naere will be unanswerable demonstration that the free traders do not lank justification for their oft-repeated allegation that the protective tariff is Vised by manufacturers for the purpose of- enriching themselves at the cost of theirfell^ciffiienß? B Pianos and the McKinley Tariff. The year 1891 was one of the dullest known in thohlstory of the piano Indus- j try, and the prospects are not flattering i 1 lot 1892. For many months in 18911 « ... . _ ■■ . i ; •

numerous factories were running on half time, and not a few gave their employes extended vacations. Factories that usually turn out forty or fifty pianos a week last year made but twelve or fifteen a week. A prominent manufacturer said the other day that the MoKinley tariff bill has increased tho cost of making pianos from $1 to $6. Tuning pins, hammer felt, music wire, etc., cost more than formerly. Home of the larger manufacturers, however, say that the extreme dullness, in trade is not due so much to the increased cost of producing pianos—which is comparatively small—as to the evil effects on the country at large of the McKinley measure. Beveral prominent manufacturers, who stood by “protection” two years ago, . are now outspoken enemies of that misnamed system. Handicapped as our manufacturers have always been under “protection,” they have, by superior ingenuity and ability, been able to compote in the markets of the world, and our exports of pianos have exceeded $250,000 a year. With free row materials our exports would soon exceed $1,000,000. It never occurred to McKinley that by giving raw materials free to our manufacturers he would not only enable them to sell cheaper at holne but to compete abroad, sell more goods, increase their plants and employ more men at better wages. It has. however, occurred to thousands of workmen who have had their wages reduced, or are thrown out of work, because of highpriced, restricted, “protected" markets, and they will as speedily as possible stop the career of this robber of the poor man —“protection.” The World’s Sheep. The following table, compiled by the statistician of the Department of Agriculture from official records, shows the number of sheep kfept in the leading countries of the world: Sheep Square per eq.

The former admits all wools free of duty, while the latter imposes a higher duty on wool than any other country. Under free wool the number of sheep kept in the United Kingdom has shown a considerable increase for several years. Under high duties on wool the number of sheep kept in the United States has not increased but actually decreased. Os the above countries, the United States, the Argentine Republic and Russia, are the only ones which levy a duty on the Importation of raw wool. Does not this show clearly that no amount of duty can make the keeping of sheep for wool profitable in the greater part of the United States? The farmers of all the European countries have solved the difficulty, and are keeping sheep for mutton, wool being only an incidental product. Is not this a good policy for the farmers os distinguished from the ranchmen, to adopt? The Jewel In the Soup. •See what I’ve found in my soup,” remarked a guest at a Woodward avenue restaurant to her friend. “Oh, isn’t it rich? What will you do with it?" “Keep it. • It’s mine. Didn’t I pay for the soup?” “Yes, but you didn’t expect such a find as that. How much do you think it’s worth?” The other rolled her treasure between her thumb and finger, then held it up critically to the light. “A hundred dollars, perhaps. If it is, dear, I’ll divide with you. Don’t let’s tell a soul about it. ” “ You will have a lawsuit with the restaurant keeper; he will claim it for sure.” “ How is he to know where I found it? It was in the soup. Let us go and see how much it is worth. ” As the two ladies arose from their untasted meal, the waiter inquired: “Any thing wrong with your stews, ladies?" “No,” they answered in concert, and then they went out and at once proceeded to a jeweler’s store.” “I have a valuable pearl I would like to dispose of,” said the finder. “This way, ladies;” and the jeweler led them into a little private office, gaslighted. Then he produced a pad of jeweler’s cotton, and the jjearl was deposited carefully thereon. The jeweler looked at it a moment as if overcome by its size and weight, then he burst into an eclamation: “Why, it’s been cooked!” he said. “How much is it worth?” asked the two ladies anxiously. “About the value of a shoe button.” As the two went out slowly and sorrowfully, the same thought found expression with each: “We lost our oysters. Wish we’d swallowed tho old thing! —Free Press. Results of McKlnleyism. The Arlington Woolen Mills of Lawrence, Mass., of which William Whitman, the President of the Wool Manufacturers’ Association, is President, earned a dividend of 50 per cent, in 1891. The high duties on woolen goods imposed by the McKinley tariff made these enormous earnings possible. At the hearings before the Ways and Means Committee, Mr. Whitman asked for these high duties, not for his own interests to lie sure, but fqr the interests of his workmen. The sequel of this has now come to pass. Fifty weavers in his mills have struck against a reduction in their wages from $8 to $6 per week, not produced directly but by an underhand method in the classification of new work. What a comment is this on the idea that a high propective tariff is in the workingman’s interest. Disgraced Forever. The Boston -Symphony concerts have become, in away, sacred ceremonials, at which even those not born with a muical car must assist in becoming fashion. One Friday afternoon the tvto little daughters of a certain family" returned from the music hall “in a state of mind. ’’ One of them was evidently scornful, and the other depressed. “What’sthe matter?” asked some one. “Wasn’t the concert fine?” “The concert was all right,” said Ethel, superbly, “I don’t complain of the Concert!” aj “Thon what did go wrong’VSomething, I’m sure.” “The amount of the matter is," said the young lady, looking haughtily at : her drooping sister, “that Mildred has disgraced herself.

A MOST GRAPHIC STORY. IT IS TAKEN DIRECT FROM REAL LlFfe. ACbarmlnc Mbw Kn«lHn<l I.ady Telia Her Exp.ri.noe Both Abroad and In America. The unwritten romance* of life are more wonderful and far more Interesting than tho rnoat vivid works of Uctlop. The one we are about to relate occurred hweal life, and la both Interesting and instructive. Mra. Jennie ,Bay formerly lived In Manchester, N. H. Her homo waa pleasant, her surrounding* comfortable. In the year 1880 ahe vislteo England, and while In that , country began to experience strange aenaa- 1 tlons. At lint she attributed them to the change of climate, but they continued and liicrtumod. until finally, like many another woman, she beeume utterly discouraged. It wks while in this condition that Mrs. Ray returned to America and her home. Thousauda pf women who read this story can appreciate the condition in which Mra. Bay then waa, and sympathize with her Buffering. Two prominent physicians were called and endeavored to do all fn their power for her relief. In avlte, however, of their skill Mrs Ray grew weaker and more depressed, while tbe agony she endured seemed to increase. Il was at this time that a noted physician who was called de- i dared Mrs. Kay was suffering from cancer. I said there was no help, and told her friends she Could not live more than a week at tbe , farthest. And here comes the Interesting part of the story, which we will endeavor to tell In Mrs. Bay’s own words. She said: “Unknown to all these physicians, I had been Using a preparation of which I had heard much. I did not tell the physicians - because I feared they would ridicule me, j and perhaps order Its discontinuance. During all the while that the physicians were attending me tho preparation was steadily* and faithfully doing Its own work In its awn way, and I had faith In Its power. At last the doctor said there was ntf nso of his coming, for he could do mo no good. I had Buffered so much that I was quite willing to die, but it seems I was nearer relief than I know. Ono week from tho day the doctor last called a false growth, as large as a coffee cup, and which looked as though It had been very large, left ma I sent tor a doctor, and he declared It was a fibroid tumor, but said he had never known one to come away es Itself before. I Immediately began to gain health and strength, and I unhesitatingly declare that my re.cue from death was due solely to the marvellous effects of Warner's Safe Cure, which was the remedy 1 took unknown to the physicians, and which certainly rescued me from the grave. It is my firm belief that many ladies who are bald to die of cancer of the womb are cases like mine, snd If they could be induced to use Warner’s Safe Cure they, like me, might be saved." The above graphic account is perfectly true In every respect. Mrs. Jennie Ray is now living at 142 West 6th street, South Boston, Mass., and if any lady doubts the above statement she can address Mrs. Ray, who will gladly answer all questions or grant an interview of a confidential nature to any lady who may choose to call ttpon her. It is said that “truth is stranger than fiction," , and when the thousands of suffering, help- i less women who are upon the road which I physicians say leads only to death, consider I the story as above given, there Is reason for ; hope and joy, even although they may be now in the depths of despondency and misery. To such ladles the above truthful account is willingly given. Didn't Want a Pony. Small Boy—Papa, Willie Winkers ’s got a pony. Papa—Has?

A boy couldn’t t hurt on that ponev.”’ “I suppose not” ‘.‘lt eats hardly anything, too, and doesn't cost much to keep.” “It doesn’t?” “N€t anything, hardly. Willie said his papa bought it real cheap.” “No doubt.” “And he said there was plenty more where that came from.” “Humph! Do you want me to buy you a pony?” “N —o. I was only thinKin’ what a pice pony Willie Winkers has.” “Oh!” “Yes. Willie’s got a nice papa, too, hasn’t he?”—Street & Smith's Good News. And This In Ohio. A most horrible instance of filial ingratitude came to light at Akron. Ohio, a tew days since. For a year William Ager has been keeping his father, 90 years old and almost helpless, in a pen attached to his barn. He has been fed with scraps from the table and kept warm with filthy rags and a little stove. Ager’s wife would not have the ol& man in the house, saying that he was too filthy to live with The case was discovered through the curiosity of »he nextdoor neighbor, who was annoyed by the stench from the old man’s pen and peeped in to see what was kept there. When the old man saw her he begged to be either rescued or killed. Ho was removed to an infirmary. A REMARKABLE SUCCESS. What Ability and Research Accomplish. There is the widest difference in the world between the study of a profession and its practice. Experience, practical knowledge from real eases, is the most essential material in building up any profession. Physicians frequently disJI; H. c. m'cobmick, m. d.. ph. g. guise from patients their true condition, because of their inability to provide a successful remedy. With twenty-one years’ experience as a practitioner I can conscientiously say that I have never used a preparation with such uniform good results as that attained by Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root. It is a veritable discovery ami as such is an inestimable acquisition to medical science. I have prescribed this remedy in many of the worst kidney and bladder disorders, both in acute and chronic cases where the p«timts presented tho most complicated and alarming symptoms, and ha\p noted with great interest its effect. The results have be. n most satisfactory. Its action on the affected kidneys and bladder and consequent disordered liver and digestion has been gentle yet immediate, tho relief speedy and the cures perms--nent. I have found’it a most invigorating tonio in broken-down constitutions, La Grippe, and in other cases where tho vitality has been greatly wasted and enfeebled. H. C. McCobmick, M. D., Ph. G.
