A few days ago, in the United States Senate, Ingalls of Kansas, Vice President pro tern., denounced Generals McClellan and Hancock as alli< of the Southern Confederacy. Senator Blackburn, of Kentucky, retorted upon Ingalls, denounced the falsehoods and billingsgate slang emanating from his putrid carcass, and exposed the part he played in defense of the Union —as a judge advocate sitting in judgment upon ant littleflirregularities of Kansas jayhawkers.— Ingalls swallowed the bitter dose without a show of resistance. He is a disgrace to even the Republican party.
We suggest that John James Ingalls, of Kausas, might be prevailed upon to accent the republican nom.nation for the Presidency.
Our neighbor resorts to the “Tariff League Bulletin,” a periodical established and fostered by monopolies, for arguments in favor of the war tariff—the exaotion of tribute from the many to fill the coffers 01 the few. From an article copied by the Republican this week we extract a few passages. The Tariff League Bulletin says: • “The essential thing with all produces is not cost of production, but demand for products and the price they sell at ” Now everybody knows that the cost of production, caused by tariff duties on raw material, confine s the demand for our productions within our own limits —prohibits demand abroad and prevents competition with foreign manufacturers in the markets of the world. Therefore when production is in excess of demand manufactories a re closed up, employes requested to go to devil until the surplus is disposed of, and prices are maintained by virtue of combinations and .trusts. Remove the duties on raw m aterials, place our manufactures in the markets of the world and insure a demand tor our suplus. This will afford continuous employment and remunerative wages to the toilers; reduce the duties on manufactured products, the oost to the consumers of our land will be less, an increased demand for the comforts and r ecessaries of life will go out from • eveov home. It may not result in ' as rapid an increase of the wealth of the mono, olits, but they will receive just and honest compensation for their productions and the people will be relieved from forced and unjust tribute. Again, tr.e “Tariff League Bulletin” says: “Now price depend* upon de mand and the extent of competition—in other words, the extent of the supply.” Not at all, in this day and generation, *hank you. The “price depends upon” the orders of the ccmbip. lion cr trust interested.
