CHEAP SUGAR

Remarks of Mr. Wm. Lloyd Garrison Concerning Sugar, in his Address at Danvers, April 8. Just now the protectionists are jubilant over removal of the duty on sugar, and point to it as a vindication of the McKinley bill. Is admitting sugar untaxed protection or free trade? If it is protection, then I am a protectionist and am willing to work for more of the same sort. If it is free trade, why are you so happy over it, Mr. Protectionist? Especially since you profess to believe the foreigner pays the duty, and its removal is therefore a boon to him instead of to us. Ah, bHt the price has been cheapened two cents a pound to the American consumer, you declare. Does not that look as if he paid the tax before McKiniey struck it off? Or does frae trade in sugar save the foreigner and the \ merican each two cents a pound, and if it does, why is it not wise to extend the blessing further and treat wool, iron and coal the same way? Indeed it would .have been far better to liberate those commodities or necessities before freeing sugar. And for this reason, the duty on sugar was a revenue duty, and was nearly all paid into the Treasury of the United States. There was a satisfaction in that. But when we pay an extra price for wool, coal, or iron, which the tariff compels us to do, who gets the benefit of it? The Treasury a part, surely, but a small part. The wool-growers; the ironmasters, and the coal-barons of Pennsylvania absorbs the bulk of it, which explains why Ohio and Pennsylvania were the strongest advocates of the MoKinley bill and contributed so liberally to the campaign funds that elected this protective Administration. And you men of Massachusetts sit passively, nay, you assist in permitting these wool nDd mineral States to tax this Commonwealth for their own benefit, or rather for the benefit of a fraction of the people of those States who hold the monopoly of those industries while our foundries are idle and New England suffers. When a despot treats his people so, submission is a necessity, but when the sovereign people of a republic treat themselves in the same way, they deserve the characterisation of Carlyle, which we can apply to this oountry as’well as to England, and say, “ The United States is composed of 63,000,000 people; mostly fools." One of the consolations of working in a good cause is the continual help extended by the enemies of reform. Mr. McKinley, Mr. Blaine, or Senator Aldrich never make a plea' for protection that does not bear indirect testimony of the wisdom and rightfulness of free exchange. Now here is Mr. Uavemever, the head of the great sugar trust, and a strong protectionist, who testifies unconsciously that it is free trade which promotes infant industries. He says: “ One of the cohsequences of the reduction of the duty and lessening price on sugar will be the establish ment of new industries in this oountry. For instance, we have no large manufactory of jam here, while in England they manufacture upwards of 100,000 tons a

year. It is probable that such an industry will shortly be started here, because we can now enter into competition with the English." Only think of the heresy which this admission implies. Free trade not only nnrtnres infant industries, but enables them to compete with the pauper labor of England. And do not forget that infants thus born have every prospect of longevity and have not to shiver in the wind every time Congress meets for fear the puties willlbe disturbed. And they are saved the gloomy orospect of dependency and pauperism which the hundred years old infants of to-day are experiencing.

Monon Excursions.

GRAND INTERSTATE DRILL TOURNAMENT. The Monon will sell excursion tickets at one lowest limited first class fare for the round trip, on the occasion of the Grand Interstate Drill Tournament at Indianapolis, Ind„ June 30th to July 7th, 1891. Tickets to be sold July 2d, to be i ood going only on date of sale, and limited to return until and including July 6th, 1891. For Military Companies of not less than 20, traveling together in uniform, on one solid ticket in each direction, a rate of one cent per mile, distance traveled, per capita may be made: tickets to be good for continuous passage only, good to arrive at Indianapolis not later than July 2d, 1891, and good returning on July 6th 1891, only.

I A Wicked Conspibact.—As the levies for county, township, school and municipal taxes are not levied until September, the Crescent will make it very plain, that if a dollar more is levied than actually needed, it will be done by political conspirators who want to make the new law odious. The evidences multiply that a Ibroad conspiracy exists to defeat the objects of the law for political purposes. No democratic official will be caught.— Frankfort Crescent. The state tax under the new law will be 18 oents) on the hundred dollars. The McKinley tax is 60 cents on the dollar. Quite a difference.

THE REPUBLICAN LITERARY BUREAU,

Some presumably trusted -Republican sends the New York Evening Post a circular, with the address containing his name neatly cut out, which he has received from the “American Protective League." The document contains much interesting information, including the following; “In addition to other work, we are now supplying 2,000 newspapers with their tariff matter, and through confidential agents in I,Boo'dift'orent places are extending the operations of the League. The campaign of 1892 will be a comparatively easy one, if—if we can increase and continue the work of placing reliable information iu the hands of the people. The necessity of early and continuous work cannot be overestimated. By order of the executive oommittee we beg to ask from you a contribution of sissy (SSO) doelars for the current year.” This indicates that the “fat-frying" process has begun somewhat earlier than in 1888, when it was started by the renowned Foster, and that it is to be prosecuted with no less zeal, but with more discretion tha u he showed. Possibly the statement of the circular that it is “supplying 2,000 newspapers wit their tariff matter" explains the prevalence of the tin plate lie, and the remarkable vitality which it s hows in spite of repoated exposures.— Every true Republican ought to be willing to P n y SSO to have tho same lie “kept standing” in 2,000 papers for an entire year. The price is ridiculously low. The “bureau" is located with the “New York Press" and the "fat-fried” are invited “to contrit nte fifty (SSO) dollars each to pay that establishment fori “supplying 2.000 papers" with tariff lies on the tinplate and other industries. Tho “tariff diagrams" which so frequently illuminate the pages of the Rensselaer Republican, and other monopoly organs, are the products of the aforesaid “bureau."

A TARIFF STORM RISING.

[Pittsburgh Post.] And where, pray, are the increased wages for American workingmen promised as a certainty to follow the passage ol the McK nley bill? Has not the trend of wages been downward? The strikes and lockouts from one end of the Union to the other, almost exclusively in the protected industries, answer ihe questions. The McKinley bill was framed to care for the fat-fried contributors to campaign funds, and the fat fried are taking preoious good good care of themselves with the aid of imported cheap labor, ruthless evictions, deputy sheriffs, soldiers—all warring against organized labor. The belter the McKinley bill is understood in its purpose and working the more intense the anger against it. The cyclone oi 1890 will be as a summer gale to the storm that is rising.

Representative Buchanan, of New Jersey, says the Democrats in Congress next December will adopt the Reed rules. If they don’t, be says, the Republicans will “mesmerize them.” Mr. Buchanan speaks without reflection. Reed rales are not needed to enable a majority to govern.— They are only needed when a party that ought to have a majority doesn’t have it. In the last House the nominal majority of the Republicans was so small that they had great difficulty in producing a real majority In the hext House the Democrats will be able to let 30 or 40 men go a fishing and then have a quorum without any Republican assistance. The Republicans in the next House will not mesmerize anybody, but there is some danger that they will not be nu erous enough <o keep the huge Democratic majority fully awake—Natiohal Democrat.

Why the Cobpobations Kick.— One pretty good test of a law is to be found m those who oppose it. All the corporations and large interests that have hitherto escaped taxation altogether or only paid a small amount aie bitterly opposed to the new tax *aw passed by the last legislature. It makes these interests pay up and to that extent it lightens the burdens on the laboring, producing masses. —Terre Haute Gazette. A Succession op Climaxes.—Harrison declared in Denver that his reception here was the climax of his tour. He had three climaxes later on—one at Omaha, another at Springfield and the last at Indianapolis. The president lost Denver’s climax en route.—Rocky Mountain News. An increase of 1,695 in the number of Government employes, and of more than $5,100,000 in the annual pay roll—something more than $3,000 each on an average—was one of the minor achievements of the Reed Congress.

more McKinley blessings

The MeKinlfiy tariff has driven four large smeltibg establishments to Mexico, begun to divert Mexican ere from the United States to Germany, driven an iron foundry from Maine to Novia Scotia, reduced tho wages in the rolling mill in New Haven, and caused or permitted the reduction of wages in a couple of hundred other induatriea or individual establishments. Among its other effects has beeh the announcement that the American Screw Company would remove a considerable part of its machinery to Englar d to make screws for the foroign trade because our duties on raw material render it impossible to make screws for the foreign trade here, and the drawback clauses of the McKinley law have been found impracticable. While the new tariff has not yet established the manufacture of tin-plau in this cc untry it has driveu a dinner pail factory over into Canada. These two latest achievements of the masterpiece of protectionism deserves to be looked at a little mere in detail. The officers of the screw company hove stated, according to the Providence Journal, that if they could get their raw material here free of duty th' y could manufacture screws for the foreign trade. They pay higher wages here than are paid in Europe, but the superior character of the labor aud the larger use of machinery under the American system more than offset this, so that the company could send screws to Europo and sell them there largely. The tax on the raw material prevents this, and though the new tariff promises to return 99 per oent. of the duties imposed when the goods are exported the cond tions are so onerous that the screw company finds it impossible to comply with them. The company will establish a factory in England with American machinery anh American workmen in charge of the different branches of the work. The Buffalo Courier has investigated the manufacture of the Nestable dinner pail by F. G. 0. Ehl# & Co., in Buffalo, with interesting results. Mr. Eble said he was just starting a factory in Canada to make the pails for the foreign trade because the MoKinley bill wouldn’t let him make the goods in Buffalo. The duty on tin was such that he could turn out manufactured goods in Canada for about what the tin cost in the United States.— He was asked if he were buying Amerioan tin plate. “I have tried to, but bo far have failed, * said Mr. Ehle, smiling. “The concerns which claim to be manufacturing now in this country have not even classified their goods. I tried to order some home-made tin not long ago, andlcouldn’t got it. Tin plate can be imported from England to Canada at a basis of $3,62 per box. The same thing delivered here costs $6. The duty of 22 10 cents a pound does it. It has ruined our export trade. How can we pay higher wages?" “Did you export any before the McKinley law was passed?” “A little, but the old duty of one oent a pound hampered us. We can manufacture these pails in Canada and import them into -this country with the duty of 50 per cent, on the manufactured product, and still save 15 per cent, over the cost of manufacturing here. Why, the duty on the waste we make here would pay our rent three times over.” “But haven’t you forgotten the rebate of 99 per cent, of the duties patd on ail goods you export?" no, we haven’t forgotten that.— But bur oi ders from abroad are smaller than our home orders, and when we figure on the labor and expense of collecting the rebate, we find it does not pay to try for it.” “Are any other coueerns moving into Canada for manufacturing purposes?*
