Because it Is my deliberate Judgment that the prosperity Of America is mainly due to its system of protective laws I urge that Eerßiany has now reached that paint where it is necessary to imitate the tariff system of the United States.— Biimmrcf: la Hfte J2em/tst<tg, Map -4,4882 The Republicans of the county should all turn out to the mass conventions,onSatui day, and select good men, that trill go, as delegates to-all the conventions.

Jill Republican voters should endeavor, if possible, to attend the township convention, nest Satnr—day alternaan, fojjtfce ejection of delegates to the various conventions specified in the call.

It lies been generally understood throughout this judicial circuit that there would be no opposition to Capt. Marshall for Prosecuting Attorney. But Benton county now looms up with a c indidate, i:i the i erann of Mr. John ,T. D own. ijr h*.s not ' made a>y formal annoiufcement; but has Either been trying the still hunt, or has just concluded to run.

Both the Lleprosentntivr and Judicial conventions meet in Goodfand next Tuesday, July 21. ii. W. Marshall will b • nominated for Prosecuting Attorney, unless his friends allow the battle to go by default. For Representative Messrs. 1). L. Bishopp and J. F. Johnson, of Newton county, are in tlie field. They ar.o both “A No. 1” men for the place. Jasper will send over 60ine good delegates to help Newton decide which it shall bp. ..

The thousand dollars still remain on deposit in Fletcher's Bank, at Indianapolis, subject to the order of any person who will prove that General Harrison ever said that a dollar a day was enough for any workingman. Another thousand dollars has been deposited in the same bank, to be paid to any person who will produce the proof that General Harrison ever said of the railroad strikers, in 1877, that “if he [Harrison] was in i power ho would put men to work at the point of the bayonet, and if |lmt would not do, lie would shoot them down like dogs.”

The Mills bill takes the tariff clear off from salt but does not disturb the 68 per cent, duty on rice. It admits wool free of duty but neglects to lower the tariff on sugar. The reasons for these seeming inconsistences are obvious enough. Rice is a production of South Carolina and sugar of Louisiana, while wool and salt are mainly the products of Republican states. The wfiqje bill is formulated upon the principles indicated in thesa instances. The productions of ’democraticstates and sections are protected, those of Republican states and sections are sacrificed.

State Senator John S. Day, of New Albany, is an active Democratic partisan, but at the same time he has judgment enough to preceive that the Republican position on the tariff is the right and the Democratic position the wrong one. In a late letter to a friend at Crawfordsville, he says: “While I am not a Republican, yet I am an American who believes that we, as Americans, should make and manufacture all our goods that we consume, and that every man so engaged with capital and labor Should be so far protected that he can live as only Americans live. I don’t want to see our labor stand idle,and $560,000,000 vyprtb of iron annually imported here for consumption, or compel our laborers to work for 30 or 40 cents per day in its production. Nor do 1 to see men who have, in good faith, put | up money to develop the country, lose it, for the will or wish of thirteen or fourteen Southern states. None of it for me. I want to see every dollar of labor and every dollar of American money guarded and protected to the fullest. When this is done we will have a prosperous and happy land. Our j milh are all cloned except the cot-j ton mills. We have between two thousand and three thousand idle men here at this time.”

Prices Under a Protective Tariff.

The attorneys for free trade, who seek, to create prejudice eif Protection by charging that it raises the cost to consumers, can best be met by a comparison of prices of a few articles in common use. In 3,860 salt, then on the free list, sold'to consumers at an average price of per barrel. —The tariff on salt inrbarrels is now 12 cents per hundred pounds, (or say 33| cents pei barrel,) and the average price is not more than half that of 1860. As salt has been made the subject of special attack, it may be well to ascertain just how much of the present selling price goes to the manufacturer, ate prejudice. In 1887, at the works in Michigan* Mil sold At 00

cents per barrel —and of this sum 20 cents was paid to the cooper for making the barrel. All beJween this price and that by consumers went for transportation and profits of middlemen. The manufacture of plate glass ; was established in 1800, when the foreign-made article sold-for $2.00 i per square foot. The tariff on a similar quality of glass is now 50 | cents per foot, and file price Ims steadily lowered until it is now 75 cents per-square foot. Rig.lron, in 1800, sold $22.75 per toil. With a tariff of $0.72 per ton, it now sells for $lB. Steel rails were first made here in 1807, when the price was SIOO. per ton. The tariff has been as high as S2B per ton, and is now sl7. Steel rails are now quoted at $31., and have sometimes been lower,

A favorite plea of free traders is that with wools and woolens on the free list “the poor man’s blanket” would be sold for onehalf its present price—when the fact is prices for blankets of equal quality are about the same in the United States and England. Here i! the proof: Last year the Secretary of War invited bids for supplying army blankets of four pounds weight, and allowed foreigners to compete on the same terms as American manufacturers, that is without paying the.tariff. The lowest British .bid was only 30 cents per blaiiket less than that of an American. The tariff, if it had been charged, would be about $1.50. Our free trade ["Cabinet officer gave the contract to the foreigner who pays no taxes- and buys nothihg'in this country, instead of favoring the American, who supplies work to hundreds of people and otherwise adds to the wealth of our country. The money from national treasury went to a foreign country, and American soldiers are to sleep under British blankets, because they can be made in England for thirty cents less than in this country. And here is some testimony

from the other side: Matthew Arnold, the eminent English scholar, statesmen and free trade advocate, recently deceased, last year made a tour of this country, and afterwards gave his conclusions in the Nineteenth Century Magazine, (April, 1888.) In this paper the writer admits that conditions in the United States are favorable to “that immense class of people” whose iucomes.are less than $1,500 a year, while in England the advantage “is greatly in favor of those with income above that sum.” Of wages lie says, “the humbler kind of work is better paid in America than with us, the higher kind worse. Luxuries are, as I have said very dear — above all, European luxuries; but a working-man’s clothing is nearly as cheap as in England, and plain food is on the whole cheaper.
