Disagreement in tbe Protection
Camp.
The American Protertianift in it last
issue attacks the Secretary of the Treas
ury for recommending in his annual re
port a further reduction of customs duties
in order to lessen the surplus of revenue.
It says that “after the experience of the
past season any invoice clerk or sharp
messenger boy could tell the Secretary
that to reduce rates of duty is not to re
duce revenues from imports. In its
anxiety todef*-ml the protection policy The
Pr-trrti-.Hist ignores facts and relies upon
assertion*. The very little reduction in
the tariff on a few articles that was made
l ist Congress makes a perceptible differ
ene*- in the revenues, as the Secretary's
report shows. There is a large number of
articles the importation of which is
not materially affected bv the tariff.
There would te just so much of each
i nil>rted, whether the tariff was high or
!v. With respect to a very large num
b rof other articles which come in com
petition with our manufactured products
a reduction of the tariff would not result
in increased importation. It would
simply result in lower prices to con
sumers. Home manufactures would con
tinue to supply the home demand to the
extent tbev do now, but they might not
I able to make fortunes every year.
The leading manuiacturers in this State
! not long ago declared that they did not
want any protection. If The Protectionist
had studied the situation a little more
carefully it would not have attacked the
-ecretary so rashly. That journal will
hardly admit that Mr. Blair, the New
Hampshire Senator, is an enemy of the
protection policy, and yet he has intro
duced a bill “to reduce revenue” by
granting a drawrback of duty on all
articles wholly or partially manufactured
of imported materials when these articles
are exported. It must be admitted
the bill is a sort of crazy scheme, because
it proposes something that cannot very
well be accomplished, and because it con
t mplates selling to foreigners cheaper
taan to home consumers. It shows, how
ever, to what straights the Protectionists
are put to maintain their doctrine. The
manufacturers want their products pro
tected, but they want the raw material
admitted free. As long as the raw mate
rial is protected they are shut out of the
markets ot the world, and the home mar-
ket quickly becomes overstocked.
Mr. Dinglev, of Maine, another Protec
tionist, has introduced a bill which prac
tically admits tree raw materials required
for the building of ocean ships. Most
ship building materials are now not du
tiable, and this bill removes the restric
tions that remain. Does the Protection
ists mean to say that the Blair and Ding
ley bills will not reduce the revenue if
they become laws? They are trying to
bolster up industries which cannot exist
under a high protective tariff. Mr. Blair s
scheme will not, of course, be seriously
considered. He had better change his
bill so as to put simply a revenue duty on
raw materials.
Logan and His Candidacy.
Before the meeting of the National Re
publican Committee Arthur seemed to be
the favorite of his party as a Presidential
caniiidate, but since that meeting Senator
Logan's prospects appear to have greatly
improved. It is certain that he and liis
friends had everything pretty much their
own way in the committee, and since
then his admirers have been pushing him
to the front with a great show of en
thusiasm and energy. They look upon
Grant, Blaine and Conkling as out of the
wav. In fact, they assert that all of
them have declared that they were not
candidates, and would not be, and that
Logan was agreeable to them. If these
three leaders are united in favor of
Logan, he has something in his favor, but
their position to-day may not be
their jiosition a few months from now.
Logan's friends also point with pride
to his little bill introduced in the Senate
in March, 1882, which provides for distrib
uting the whisky tax among the States
and Territories for educational purposes.
This they declare is a much better solu
tion of the surplus revenue problem than
that offered by either MThartonJ Barker or
Mr. Blaine, it also has the advantage of
having been suggested before the plans of
Barker and Blaine. Logan’s friends claim
that this bill of his shows genuine states
manship. It accomplishes three objects—
first, it provides for getting rid of $*6,000.-
000 annually, just about the amount of
the surplus; second, it preserves the war
tariff intact, and thus wins the favor of
the great protection monopolists; and
third, it accomplishes a great moral work,
because it provides for the education of
the masses. This is certainly a nice show
ing for Gen. Logan, and helps to make his
candidacy look promising. The temper
ance people, however, may object to hav
ing their children educated from the pro
ceeds of the whisky traffic, and the great
mass of voters may not agree to a plan
that taxes them in order that a few may
accumulate enormous fortunes. Gen.
Logan has started out well, but he has
started so early that he may not hold out
long enough to reach the prize. Arthur,
who controls all the machinery in the
Southern States, has an immense advan
tage, which the swarthy Senator may find
impossible to overcome. He will be ex
tremely fortunate it he does not find his
place among disappointed statesmen. It
was the unexpected which happened at
Chicago the last time the convention met
there, and it would not be surprising if
the unexpected happened again.
llescrtions from the Army.
Gen. O. O. Howard declares that his
recommendation relative to branding de
serters from the army has been misunder
stood. His idea, he says, is not that
deserters shall be branded with a red-hot
iron, but that they shall be marked with
indelible ink in the same way that bounty
jumpers were marked during the war. It
may be that Gen. Howard was misunder
stood. but it is more than probable that
finding that his brutal recommendation
was meeting with merited condemnation
he deemed it necessary to make a soften
ing explanation. The average army
officer has little or no respect for the com
mon soldier.
It the stones which are constantly find
ing their way into the newspapers are to
lie credited the officers of the army treat
the privates little better than dogs, and
make their lives so miserable that
death is sometimes preferable to
remaining in the army. In Sun
day's New York Sun a letter trom
Fort McHenry was published, in which
some of the reasons why enlisted men de
sert from the army are given. In this
letter it is asserted that the men are
robbed, starved, treated with brutality
and made to perform all sorts of menial
services. If this Assertion is true, there
is certainly need of a reform in the army.
What is the Secretary of War doing that
he permits such abuses? What
is the use of talking about a remedy
for desertions without finding out the
cause of them, if the cause is removed
there will probably lie no need of a reme
dy. A great many of the enlisted men are
the peers of the officers. Misfortunes of
one kind or another have driven them into
the ranks of the army. These men will
not submit to being made slop carriers and
bootblacks. It was never intended they
should render that sort of menial service.
Some of the officers, however, compel
them to do all kinds of degrading work,
and if they murmur or complain they are
punished. Would it not be well for Con
gress to look into this matter? The Sec
retary of War, in his annual report, has
called attention to it, and it might be well
for Congress to see if there isn’t an oppor
tunity for the exercise of its authority to
protect enlisted men. Desertions can
never be prevented as long as the cause
of them exists.
The management of the House of Refuge,
a State charitable institution at Roches
ter, N. Y., is being severely criticised.
Not only are nuisances maintained on
the premises affecting the health of the
inmates, but they are locked up at night
so as to render escape in case of fire im
possible. As an instance of the great
waste and extravagance of the Superin
tendent It is stated that it costs SBOO per
year to keep one pair of horses. There
appear to be rascals all over the country
who must be turned out, but they never
receive adequate punishment.
The Morgan Mystery.
The antl-Masonic agitation which reach
ed its climax in I*3l. and was lost sight
of in the struggle which grew out of
President Jackson’s veto of the L nited
States Bank charter in 1832, and the re
moval of the deposits in 1833, it seems has
only been dormant. Every few years
some new crank comes to the front with
(juixotic chivalry to bring Himself into
notoriety by attacking the ancient anil
honorable Masonic order. The death of
Thurlow Weed, who devoted his life to
the anti-Mason and anti-slavery agita
tions, seems to have suggested to a few
visionary and obscure men the idea of a
renewal of the various stories, with varia
tions to give them the spiee of freshness,
about the alleged kidnapping of William
Morgan in 1826.
This latest candidate for fame in this
field is one Rev. Mr. Stoddard, who lec
tured last week in the small village of
Newfane. near Loekport. N. Y'. The lec
turer exhibited a solid block of stone nine
inches square at the base and twelve
inches high, with an iron ring fixed by
means of a staple to the top, which he de
clared to be the veritable sinker with
which Morgan was drowned near the
mouth of Niagara river. In the stone,
near the staple, was cut the number 36.
It is alleged that this stone was found in
the channel where the average depth is
60 feet, by Peter Tower, of Niagara coun
ty, tvho was engaged in dragging tbe river
for Morgan's body a short time after
bis disappearance. The body of Mor
gan was never found, indeed
it has been asserted that
be died in Australia a few years ago, but
Mr. Stoddard is sure the stone must have
been attached to it, but how it became
separated from the body in the short time
that elapsed before its discovery is not
explained. The speaker said that the
stone has been kept in the family of Tower
ever since its discovery, and no one else
knew the secret until recently, when
Tower’s widow, now in her 84th year, was.
persuaded to allow it to lie exhibited by
tbe lecturer and his coadjutors as a con
vincing proof of Morgan's fate, and they
proposed to deposit it soon in the “sacred
archives” of the Anti-Masonic temple in
Chicago.
It is not explained why so much pains
should have been taken to prepare the
stone amid all the secrecy and haste of
Morgan’s supposed taking off, or why
such a valuable link in the chain ot evi
dence was not brought to light in the trials
of the persons accused of complicity in
his abduction and the subsequent politi
cal campaigns, especially as the tinder
was one of the most earnest anti-Masons
of those exciting days. In view of these
facts, and of the history of this notable
case, the story ot this stone can but be re
garded as far-fetched and the attempt to
connect it with the Morgan mystery an
imposition on the public.

What America Should Do.
Louitrille Courier-Journal (Rem.).
!n America we use more machinery and

JJetrott Free Tree* [Dem.).

it would end many an argument. Instead of

serve to bait hooks for gudgeons.
Gen. Logan’s Great Bid.
Xew York ITerald ( Ind .).
Gen. Logan would not, like the sage Blaine,

money; on the contrary, he would have all
this cash spent for education. What a lovely

is to be the hand-maiden of education, and
innocent little boys and girls arc to be nur
tured by money that the government collects
from drunkards.
