<2 $ Spe Jerald and gipertiscii. Newnan, Ga., Friday, October 5. 1888. 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. AN 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! If You Are Sick With Hc.adnehe, Neuralgia. Kh iimr.tism Dyspep sia, Biliousness.

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 dee Medeechy wears No. 6’s, and she is a He will want a hatch- '■ model of true proportion. 1-1 i . -n ivqy ~ '■ “Vvnnflr ” Cflifl flip olfivk. 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. Don’t Experiment. You cannot afford to waste time in experimenting when your lungs are in danger.
