SOME TARIFF NUTS
That Our Protection Friends May Crack
at Their Leisure.
The falsehood and absurdity of the
claim is demonstrated. Meantime,
while the workingmen of this country
have been mulcted in increased prices
by the tariff for the benefit of the mil
lionaire monopolists, wages in England
have increased over 50 per cent, since
the same theory was broken up there,

the disastrous flood of 1852, when the

Editor Joseph Medill.
“When I hear the word‘protection,’I
ask: ‘Whom does it protect and who
pays for it;’ and fail to see who is ben-
fited by it beyond a few monopolists,
not equal to 10 per cent, of the entire
population of the country. The tariff
constitutes a great Chinese wall be
tween the American producer and man
ufacturer, and a profitable foreign
trade. Only a small portion of our cot
ton crop, fc>r instance, is consumed at
home. The great bulk of it is exported
to Great Britain, and thence, in the
name of English goods, is sold at a
good profit all over the world. Why
should not we manufacture these goods,
and sell .them to foreign countries?
Simply because we levy such a high
import tax upon every article which is
a factor in their production, that Great
Britain easily undersells us, and the
home consumer has to pay the enhanc
ed price, besides.”
Chicago Tribune
It is notorious that the worst paid
labor in the United States is that em
ployed in the high protection indus
tries. Beggarly wages forced Ameri
cans out, of the mills and factories of
New England to give place to the
Irish, whose discontent was expressed
in strikes until they were made to give
way to the wretched, superstitious,
priest-ridden Freneh-Canadian import
ed operatives, who can live on
less and endure more than any oth
er class the mill barons have yet found.
Woman and child labor is the distinc
tive curse of the industries having ’the
heaviest tariff protection. New Eng
land has two strongly distinguished
classes of population—tariff-protected
monopolists and coupon-clippers, so
rich that they don’t know how to spend
their money, and the pauper factory
hands who never get a cent’s worth of
protection out of the tariff.
New York World.
The Republican Senators and news
papers evade discussion of the “condi
tion” that called forth the President’s
message, and direct their attention to a
“theory” that is wholly irrelevant.
The main question is the surplus. The
Treasury balance is over $85,000,000.
Government is collecting $500,000 a day,
of capital it started? Less than $1,-
000,000. IIow did it acquire the other
$119,000,000? By a system of highway
robbery and crime such as no civilized
country ought to tolerate. Individual
enterprises, lionest competition, trans
portation lines, refineries and pipe
lines were all trampled to death un
der its merciless march to aggrandize
ment. Look at the sugar trust to-day.
Do you want to investigate that?
Summon the Havemeyers with their
books. Ask them two questions—First,
what was the value of their plant when
they went into the trust; second, what
are the profits they are receiving out of
it ? Why, the total plant of all the re
fineries only amounted to $16,000,000;
and then, when you are done with the
Standard Oil company and t-lie cotton
seed oil trust and the sugar trust, take
up the rubber trust, with a capital of
fifty millions; and then, when you have
done with that, take up the lead trust,
and the linseed oil trust, and the slate
trust, and the oil-clotli and salt, trusts,
an 1 scores of others organizing daily
with all the speed they can, in order to
anticipate any action of Congress. I
tell you Congress will have adjourned
and another Congress will have met
and adjourned before you will hardly
have commenced the investigation.
They will form trusts quicker than you
can follow them. I assert the time has
arrived for action. The country is
looking to Congress for relief, and the
hour of deliverance is at hand if you will
only realize the magnitude of the sub
ject before you. Listen to the voice of a
suffering people, appealing to their
representatives to rescue them from
the clutches of the most dangerous
monopolies that have ever raised their
forms upon the soil.”
The Great Flood in China.
The brief telegrams which have told
of the overflow of the Yellow river, in
China, gave no proper idea of what
seems to have been the most disastrous
calamity history records. The scene is
so remote that even great events liap-
peniug there excites little interest in
this country, but this disaster is so
overwhelming in extent that details of
it must excite pity in all parts of the
world. The following is from the Bal
timore Sun:
lation, and that of Honan, with twenty-
three millions of inhabitants, dwelling
in the great plain through which the
Yellow river flows, that the destruction
recorded by the papers fell. The break
in the river occurred four hundred
miles inland from the sea, near Cheng
Chow, a third-class city in Honan.
There had been incessant rains for ten
days, tne embankments were sodded,
all the local streams were filled to
overflowing, and added tlieir waters to
those of the Yellow river. The pressure
of the water on a bend of the river
broke through the protecting fascines,
and speedily made a breach twelve
hundred yards wide, through which
was emptied the whole contents of the
river into the plain. Then followed
the greatest disaster that China has
ever experienced. Below Changman a
hundred villages were swallowed up,
and three hundred inundated. Seventy
miles below fifteen hundred, other
villages were submerged. The flood
then passed over other districts equally
densely populated, and from Hung
Hai to the sea the loss of life and
property was enormous. In the prov
ince of Honan it is estimated that from
one to two millions perished, and it is
stated from Pekin that the total loss is
put at seven millions. Surely, since
the first deluge, no such frightful dis
aster ever before occurred among any
people known to history.

SPLENDID FOR A SPRING TONIC.
A wicked tariff-reform writer says:
“Wlien a sewing-woman slips on her
thimble (taxed 25 per cent.) and threads
her needle (taxed 25 per cent.) with
thread (taxed 55 per cent.) and snips it
off with scissors (taxed 35 per cent.),
and sews a button (taxed 25 per cent.)
on her husband’s winter flannel shirt
(taxed 68 per cent.), she is quite uncon
scious in her effort to get on in the world
how the blessed tariff bears down upon
her.” It is certainly high time to
distribute a basket of protection tracts
among the poor sewing-women.
