Free Raw Materials.

Give the American manufacturer hie raw materials free of duty ; give him the efficient machinery which his inventive genius can produce; give him the superior skill of our workingmen, and he can do three things as easily as he con rolloff a log. 1. He can afford to pay high wages because his employes can accomplish more in eight hours than the same class anywhere else can accomplish in ten. 2. He can do a rushing, thriving business and clear a handsome profit for himself, which is his right and his due. 3. He can take these goods, produced at high wages, and compete in London, Berlin, Paris, Madrid, India, China, Japan and South America with the cheapest wages and the longest hours that pauper labor ever dreamed of accepting or ever tried to starve on .—New York Herald. I am for a protection which leads to ultimata free trade.— James A. Garfield.
