GIVE THE PEOPLE A CHANCE.
The Monopolists Have Been Protected
Too Long Already.
Prepared by the National Democratic Cam
paign Committee.
Does the tariff tax take anything out
ot the pockets of the wage-earner? No
tax-gatheret^ver comes to his house
with a bill for tariff taxes and demands
a settlement. Nothing is heard about
it the year round. There is nothing on
tho surface to indicate that the day la
borer, the clerk, the mechanic, the
car driver, the coachman, the cook, the
nurse or the newsboy ever contribute
anything toward the. income of the
government or the extra profits of the
manufacturing capitalists. But they
do, nevertheless. For every SI that
goes to t he government $5 goes to the
manufacturer as bounty, ihe taxe*
were collected when the persons nam
ed bought what they had in their hous
es and on their backs.
On one man’s working suit of clothes
costing S7, 1 he bounty to the manufac
turer Is $2.37; one good suit costing
S20, bounty $0.48; o /ercoat costing Slo,
bounty $4.85; two flannel shirts $1.50,
bounty 04 cents; two flannel drawers
$1.50, bounty 54 cents; six wool socks
$2, bounty 80 cts; one wool hat $3, boun
ty $1.20; one pair suspenders 50 cents,
bounty 14 cents; one pair wool gloves
50 cents, bounty 21 cents; one pair
shoes $3.50, bounty 70 cents; rubber
coat $3.50, bounty 81 cents; umbrella
$1, bounty 34 cents; three linen hand
kerchiefs $1, bounty 20 cents; one
pocket knife $1.25, bounty 42 cents;
one silk tie 50 cents, bounty 17 cents;
razor $1.50, bounty 42 cents; shaving
brush 35 cents, bounty 11 cents; four
shirts $3, bounty 75 cents; two pair cot
ton drawers $1, bounty 31 cents; one
wool scarf 50 cents, bounty 21 cents.
Any laboring man or other person
having a small income is able to judge
whether ho is in a position to make a
present to anybody of the bounty he
pays on e£c4tpf the articles here men
tioned. If he is a single man perhaps
he can spare the suipis named, and is
willing to do so. lint if he has use for
the money, amounting on these articles
alone to $22.29 a year, he has a right to
vote at the polls to keep it in his pock
et. Put in life insurance or in the sav
ings bank $22.29 a year may provide
very nicely for a rainy day. But if he
is a married man, with a family, he will
find the tariff tax taking the following
sums also out of his pocket to swell the
surplus at Washington, or to add to the
profits of the manufacturer: Three
calico dresses for wife cost $2.25, boun
ty 50 cents; three aprons 50 cents,
bounty 10 cents; two woolen dresses
$10, bounty $6.60; two balmoral skirts
$3, bounty $1.10; two cotton skirts
$1.50, bounty 25 cents; two suits of
flannels $3, bounty $1.29; two suits cot
ton underwear $2, bounty 58 cents;
three pair cotton hose $1, bounty 29
cents; woolen cloak $12, bounty $2,88;
shawl $6, bounty $2.79; hood $1.25,
bounty 54 cents; straw bonnet $1,
bounty 33 cents; two pair shoes $4,
bounty 80 cents; rubbers 50' cents,
bounty 10 cents; parasol $2, bounty 40
cents; veil 70 cents, bounty 24 cents;
live yards ribbon 50 cents, bounty 17
cents; three linen collars 50 cents,
bounty 12 cents; three pairs linen cuffs
60 cents, bounty 14 cents; three hand
kerchiefs 75 cents, bounty 20 cents;
tuck comb 20 cents, bounty 7 cents;
tooth brush 35 cents, bounty 8 cents;
pair wool mits 50 cents, bounty 21 cents;
pair gloves $1.25, bounty 47 cents.. On
the expenditure of $61.90 in settlement
of wife’s store bill the struggling citi
zen has thus paid $21.76 in tariff taxes,
about one-fifth of which went into the
government treasury and the other
four-fifths to some far-off manufactur
ing capitalist.
Part of this tax the poor man will be
relieved from—a small part, it is true—
if the Mills bill become a law, but
much the larger part he will always
have to bear, as it is the settled policy
of our government to obtain the most
of its revenue from tariff taxes. Still
he will not object if the Mills bill gets
him a discount of from 7 to 10 per ceut.
off his wife’s and his own store bill. If
the wage-earner has one daughter to
clothe, he will feel additional interest
iu the tariff, as it will make her store
bill $58.50, or *20.15 more than it would
be without the existing high tariff. If
there is a boy in the family to buy for,
his store bill is increased about $2S.12
on a total expenditure of $53.60. With
a family consisting of wife and two
children, it is expedient to keep house
This is the opportunity of the tariff
lord. To furnish the kitchen 3S6.50
will have to be paid out, of which sum
$29.74 is tariff tax. On the cook stove
alone costing $18, there is a tariff tax
of $2.43; on dishes costing $10, a tax of
$3.55.
Passing to household furniture, the
mechanic in furnishing his dwelling
will find that buying one heating stove
at $15 he is paying a tax of $4.65; on
fifty yards of carpet costing $40, a tax
of $10; on three sets of bedroom furni
ture costing $75, a tax of $19.45. If he
spends $239.60 to furnish his rooms, he
will have paid a tariff tax of $67.66. In
the course of a year he will spend some
$60 at the grocer’s, $20 of which be tar
iff tribute. But the housekeeper’s
wants are as numerous as the holes in a
cornmeal sifter
et, costing $1, on which he will pay a
cents, on which he pays 10 cents tax; a
basket, costing $1, on which the tax is
30 cents; a grindstone, costing $3, on
which the tax amounts to 50 cents; a
spade, costing 50 cents, on which the
tax is 15 cents. If he should buy 20
pounds of nails liis tax would be 25
cents.
These are a few of the things the
householder buys, and on all he is tax
ed. Ilis rent even is higher by reason
of the tariff, as the tariff has enhanced
the cost of the materials of which his
house was built. Anybody can see that
a reduction of tariff duties is desirable.
As the average rate now is 4i.l0 per
cent., it is plain that the Mills bill is
moderate in proposing, as it does, a re
duction of but 7 per cent.
to get them on. He had never heard of
“dee Medeechy,” but he was up to a trick
or two himself. “After all,” he said,
“These are too large. You’ll find the
4’s just right.”
He was ODly gone a moment; but in
that time he had erased 5 E from the in
side of a pair and substituted 4 B.
“There, I thought.it was strange,” she
said, when they were on and paid for.
“Why, those are just as easy as my
old ones. I believe I could just as well
have had 3’s after all.” And the young
man without a conscience went back to
his duties with the air of one well satis
fied with himself.

By request.
HONEST RUMSELLER’S AD
VERTISEMENT.
She Was Business.
Detroit Free Press.
There was a big excursion from Can
ada yesterday, and the Third street de
pot was jam full of the foreigners all
day. One of Detroit’s smart Alecks was
hanging around the place, and by and
by observed to an acquaintance;
“If you find a sharp, smart widow in
the lot who wants a second husband
just let me know.”
He turned to go, when a woman
about 35, well dressed, sharp-nosed and
hawk-eyed tapped him on the shoulder
and said:
“Mister, I overheard you. Do you
want a wife.”
“Why-ah-why-ah—” he was stammer
ing, when she interrupted him with:
“I am a widow; Pm smart; I caught
the man a dozen other girls were after.
I’m sharp; I’ve turned a forty acre
farm into a mill paying $2,000 per year.
You were inquiring for me.”
“Vfell, ma’am, I-I was only in fun,
you know.”
“You didn’t mean it?”
“No.”
“You are a married man already?”
“Yes.”
“See here, sir,” she continued as she
came closer; “how dare you trifle with
my feelings.”
“I-I didn’t.”
“Don’t add the sin of lying to your
other crimes. Who are you, sir?”
“I never meant it, ma’am.”
“Where’s the depot policeman? I’ll
see if I can’t come to Detroit on an ex
cursion without having my feelings tri
fled with. Where is the officer?”
She rushed around to find one, and
Smart Aleck took advantage of the
break to fly. When she found him gone
she gave her bonnet a fresh slant and
said;
“He has escaped, has he? Well, ]
want him and all other men to under
stand that I’m straight business from
head to heel, and I don’t take any
body’s bluff.”
He Never Spoke.
Detroit Free Press.
“Have you lost your way, ma’am?”
queried a Jefferson avenue policeman
of a woman who was acting as if bewild
ered.
“Lost my way? Naw!” she exclaimed
as she came to a halt. “I’m looking for
the old man.”
“Yours?”
‘ ‘Of course, I’m not looking for anybody
else’s. He is short, bends over and—”
“I saw him a few minutes ago, with
a piece of watermelon in his hand.”
“You did, eh? That’s his game, is it?
He was in a rush to get off alone, and I
suspected something.”
“I think you’ll find him in that hall
way, ma’am,” said the officer, indicat
ing a spot a few doors below.
“Thanks,” she said as she tip-toed off.
The watching officer saw her take a
few sly observations and then she sud
denly sprang into the doorway. There
was a yell of terror, followed by a
thump and bump, but before he could
reach the spot the woman appeared,
clutching the old man by the callar with
oue hand and holding the half devour
ed slice of watemelou in the other.
“Didn’t expect me, did you?” she
said as she wobbled him around.
“Sneaked off when my. back was turn
ed, and the first thing you did was to
go for watermelons! Played sueak on
your wife, didn’t you? Hid away and
gnawed it clean down to the rind, you
old shote you! Come along back to the
depot and if you try to break away I’ll
make it the worse for you.”
He didn’t try. She wobbled him back
and forth, but he licked his chops and
made no protest. She had caught him
red-handed and red-cored.
A Corn Rhapsody.
Louisville Courier-Journal
There stands nature’s cornu-copia.
Making a maccaroni of the English and
Latin in the form of the word, we shall
call corn, the king of plenty. There
stands the American nonpareil of all
the vegetable kingdom, 8,9,10 feet high,
towering far above all other annual
plants, and serried into armies of
defense against want, file by file and
rank by rank into battalions, divisions
and corps d’armee, a gallant and gaily
caparisoned host covering a battlefield
of 79,000,000, acres. See him where he
stands, erect, proud of bearing, with
his plume swaying grandly in the breeze
and in the gladsome warmth of the sun
shine which he loves. But as he stands
iu his strength and splendor he works
and never sleeps. With his alchemy of
long, tapering blades, he is extracting
the wealth of oxygen and ozone from
the air to combine with the mineral el
ements extracted by his sappers a,nd
miners from the generous soil on which
he stands, and he is converting it all
into gold. Springing from a wee little
germinal kernel, growing into a miracle
of beauty and strength, he is, with all
his dignity and finery, not forgetting
his destiny—the destiny not only of
presenting to mankind the climax of
vegetal bravery, of apparel and form,
but also the climax of creative capacity
and execution. As he waxes in height,
strength and grace with his pennons
and plume, he adorns his frame with
jewels—ear after ear of the generous
fruitage of his body, which, ever as at
tentive to beauty as to substance, be
festoons with tassels of silk, and anon
he enriches them row after row in
phalanxes of tens, hundreds, thousands
of the richest gift of Ceres to the earth,
See him where he stands, the combin
ation and ultimate culmination of veg
etable strength, beauty and creative
powers, infi nite in numbers and strength
above all things else to protect man
and beast from want and to bless the
earth with plenty and wealth. Kin
cotton alone could dispute his empire,
hut being friends and mutual helpers
and allies in their relations, they unite
their forces, these, the two grandest
and richest of all economic dynasties,
in ten times as much abundance here
as in any other nation of the e v arth, and
iu power to enrich it above all nations.
All hail, friends and neighbors, I’ve opened a
shop,
At which I invite you politely to stop;
I beep liquid fire to sell to you all,
And therefore beseech you to give me a call.
I’ve purchased indulgence from Court, aud
begin
Dealing out to my neighbors, rum, brandy
and gin.
I expect to make paupers fbr you to support,
And to help on the business your custom I
court. ' ^
I’ll also make drunkards, and beggars like
wise,
But then I am honest and need no disguise.
I shall deal in foul spirits, and hope to excite
Men to rob and to murder, by day and by
night.
I shall drive away comfort, expenses aug
ment;
I shall stir up contention, on this I’m intent.
At a very short notice and for a small sum,
By the wonderful magic of brandy and rum,
I’ll fill your asylums, and poor-houses too;
To your prisons and scaffolds I’ll send not a
few.
I will sell you, kind neighbors, if you will but
call,
A drink that will poison and ruin you all;
Make accidents frequent, diseases increase,
Or those in existence more fatal, at least.
The goods I shall deal in will take away life;
Deprive some of reason; fill the country with
strife;
Make widows and orphans; of fathers make
fiends;
The loud wail of thousands my business at
tends.
I will see that the youth are in ignorance
kept;
Their morals corrupted; nor shall I forget
Of natural affections the parent to rob.
I’ll incite insurrections, and stir up the mob.
I’ll upro t religion—the soul I’ll destroy;
For none ef my votaries will heaven enjoy.
Though sprits are priceless, I’ll send them to
hell.
Should any one ask my reason to give,
My answer is, “Money—and money I’ll have.”
By trading in spirits I can it obtain,
And if I keep trading no one should com
plain;
Legislators sustain me, my business support,
And then I have license directly from Court;
Judges assure me my business is just,
Though it ruins my neighbor and grinds him
to dust.
I’ve purchased indulgence from them and I
hope
It’s as good as indulgences sold by the Pope.
My trade, then, is lawful and I’m not ashamed
To push it for money, nor should I be blamed
If I don’t pursue it some other one will.
Those croakers against me should therefore
be still.
I live in a country where liberty (?; reigns;
I’ve purchased the right to augment the pains
Of those who surround me; to prostrate their
health;
Bring them down to the grave, and prey on
their wealth. % j
I know that the Bible says, “Thou shalt not
kill,”
But the Court says I may, with the juice of
the still.
I know that no drunkard shell Paradise gain,
And, as I make drunltaids, no doubt I’d be
slain
Did not legislators step in to my aid,
And by their enactments take the guilt of my
trade.
But I must make money—though thousands
I slay—
Come then, friends and neighbors, come, call
every day!

The Bliss of Ignorance.
She walked into a fashionable shoe
store, says the Detroit Free Press, and
said to the polite clerk:
“You may show me a pair of walking
boots No. 4. I used to wear 3’s, but. I go
in for solid comfort now.
The clerk tried the boots, but they
would not go on.
“Strange,” she murmured; “it must
be rheumatism. Try 5’s B width,
know I can swim in them, but my feet
are so tender.
While the clerk was getting them on
she said:
“I used to have a beautiful foot, not
small, but such a good shape. I never
had a small foot, but I wore 2* sizes for
years, until I walked so much and grew
heavier.”
“Your foot is a peculiar shape; the
instep is so high—that is why you re
quire a large size,” said the clerk, who
had no fear of Ananias before his eyes.
“Iv’e heard,” she said, “that Venus

Land and Water.
As the final result of his long research
on the height of the land and the depth,
of the ocean Mr. John Murray estimates
the mean height of the land of the globe
at 2,252 feet. He finds that 84 per cent
lies between the sea level and a
height of 5,000 feet. The mean depth
of the ocean is 14,640 feet; only 42 per
cent of its waters lie between the sur
face and a depth of 6,000 feet, while 56
per cent, of the ocean waters are be
tween depths of 6,000 and 18,000 feet.
The total area of the dryland Mr. Mur
ray makes to be 55,000,000 square miles,
while that of the ocean is 137,200,000
square miles. The bulk of the dry land
above the sea is 23,450,000 cubic miles,
and the volume of the waters of the
ocean 323,800,000 cubic miles. The
amount of matter carried from the land
each year in suspension and solution he
estimates at 3.7 cubic miles; it would
thus take 6,340,000 years to transport the
whole of the solid land down to the
sea. Should the whole of the solid land
be reduced to one level the surface of
the earth would be covered by an ocean
with a uniform depth of about two
miles. The volume of the whole sphere
Mr. Murray estimates at 259,850,117,778
cubic miles.
