Covsci, Brvers, Ia, Nov. 9.~To the Fditor of Tar Bre: Will you kindir answer the following question through the columns of your paver: As I understana it, it is the poliey of the republican party to so raise the tariff as to give sufficiont protection to home industries to manufacture everything at nome. This, of conrse, will keep out all for eign manutactured goods, and consequently wo will get no revenue from that source. Now I learn that our internal revenue sunly amounts to something like $100,000,000 and our government is rua at & yoarly cost of about $360,000,000, How will this expense be met if we mako ovorything at home and receive no duties! Yours hopefully and re- speetfully, K. S, McCranry, Republican, The tariff policy of the republican party, us plainly defined in its national platform and clearly illustrated in its various acts, is to so levy duties upon foreign products as to meet the revenue needs of the government, making such duties at the same time so discriminat- ing as to give our own people and our producers a preforonce in this market over the producers of the other coun- the world. The fundamental busis of the doctrine of protection is that the laboring men of this country ought not and shall not submit to the wages yreceived in Buropean orany other coun- tric I'he republican party says that the tariff luws should be so adjusted as to give tothe American producer of any ruiele that 1 be made in this country nosu 'nt degree of protection to ens able the manufacturer to pay the labor- ing men the wages demanded by our civilization and by the habits and toms of our people. It says that where the brain power, the physical power and the inventive genius in our conntry equal to the similar powoers in other countries and have also the natural advantages of climate, produc- tion, ete should encourage the those articles we can tries of cus have Lwe manufacture of pooduce. The principle of the republican tariff policy is that we shatl develop and utal ize all the resources at command and give to labor afair return. Whers aduty was so high as to give to our own producers a monopoly of the article, higher thun necessary to a reasonuble protection, it has been re- duced. This was aone in the present tavill law. On nearly every important article of ivon and steel the duty reduced. 1t lowered upon steel rails, structural steel and strue- tural ipon bar iron, nnd upon all iron which enters into the general con- sumption of the countt Thus the purpose of the republican tarifi policy 1510 proteet, not to prohibit. Under the present tarifl law the i 5 ased during the | ) . An experi- of thirty years with this policy demonstrates that. American industries can be developed and American labor protected without seriously impairing the revenues of the government from tarifl duties, There will never be a time when we shall not be able to col- lect a large revenue from those articles of foreign production which only the rich ean have. The expensivesilks,satins, velvets and tapestries; the jewelry and precious stones; the perfumes; the wines and brandies und other things which people of moderate means cannot buy, will always be sources of revenue. Nor isitat all probable that the time will ever come whea European manufacturers will wholly withdraw from this great market, even though they are com- pelied to pay the duties, [t ought to be obvious to our corre- spondent, therefore, that there is on Qanger of the republican tariff policy, continued o the lines pursued during the past thirt ars, depriving the government of ne wry revenue from customs dutics. With the payment of the public debt, which will bo accom- plished within a fow years, and a steady reduction in the annual demand for pen- sions, the expenditures of the govern- ment will be reduced and the question of revenue will become less troublesome than it has been for the last quarter of ucentury. Meanwhile the duty and ex- pediency of maintaining the system of protection, as it is embodied in the tarift policy of tho republican party, are plain ard imperative. eve or was was npon on A SIGNIFICA CONTRAST, in a list of twenty-one prominent cities in the United States in which the carnings of working people are given according to the present consus, Omuha stands eighth in the amount earned per capita and first in the amount of in- crease in earnings per capita during tho ten years that elapsod between this cen- sus und the one preceding 1it. The fig- ures given in the last census upon this subject are for the year 1839, when the unnual earnings per hand ia this city were 3431 Since then there has been a decided increase in manufacturing en- torprises in Omuha requiring the em- ployment of skilled labor, and the pro- portion of increase in the averuge wages must thorefore huve advanced consider- ably. (o all but one of the twenty-one cities referred to the percentage of gain in wages has been more than 20 per cent. At the same time there hus been o large decline in the cost of the neces- suries of life and the workingman buys more food and clothing now for a given sum of money than he did ten years ago. Rents in the citics have advanced some- what but in thousands of instances the workingmen themselves have profited by the rise in real estate values which hus caused the increased rents. Many of them have been gradually paying for liomes of their own and the growth and improvement of the cities in which they live have advanced the value of their property. But in many places, smong which Omaha may be mentioned, there has been 0o general ad e io rents and therefo o no increase in any ivem of the workingmun’s living expense, while in many ways the cost of living has baen greatly reduced. The contrast between this state of af- fairs and the condition of the working people of Great Britain is very striking. At one of the great meetings of the un- employed now being lheld nearly every day in London, the chairman com- plained that “a gentleman had tempted away six of the best speakers by the promise of a meil.” The correspondent of the New York Sun in London vouches for the truth of this. The committee that is arranging for the great demonstration to be held In the sawe city ou Novewber 13 hus prepared resolutions to be adopted on that oc- onsion, aMirming that the number of un- emploved workingmen in the United Kingdom, and especially in London, is incronsing with alarming eapidity; that the suffering during the coming winter is likely to be unprecedented, and that therefore the government ought to pro- vide employment to keep the peoplo from starving. This wretched condi- tion of the English wage earnors exists under the same free trade policy which the American people are now asked to adopt and which the democratic party distinctly favors, as a substitute for the protective laws under which our own workingmen are prospering as they never have before. There is but one rational answer for the workingmen of the United States to give to this proposition when they cast their bal- lots. Tt is incredible that they can be decelved into voting for the trial of an oxperiment that is full of danger to their interests. The most ingenious and specious arguments of the free traders must fall before such facts as are here pointed out. LORENZO CROUNSE. It is conceded by men of all that Lorenzo Crounse is in every re- spect the peer of thetwo candidates that are competing with him in the race for the governorship. Heis a man of char- acter and integrity. Ho is level-headed and trained to weigh every question and issue dispassionately. [is ? experience on the district and supreme beneh qualifies him to pass upon legal and constitutional questions presented to the chief executive in the enactment of laws that arve submitted to him for approval, His vipe experience in public life as a member of congress, collector of internal revenue nnd assis tary of the trensury qualifies him admirably for the responsible duties of the executive and the supervision of the various subordi- nate branches of the state government. Coming from the ranks of the pro- ducers, with brain and muscle as his only inheritancs, Lorenzo Crounse isnow as he always has been in touch with the people. Irank, manly and outspoken in every emergency and upon every is sue, ho never has played and never will play the demagogue or profess any creed which Lie does not sincercly be- lieve. He hasnever sought popularity by dishonest expedients or veered like a weathercock with the passing brocze. Liver a fearless opponent of monopoly, he hus never faltered in giving expros- sion to lis views and backed up his con- victions by his acts both in the state and national legislatures, Upright in all his dealings as a citizen and public man, Lorenzo Crounse has never been tainted even with the suspicion of dis- honor or dishonesty. His social and political associations have always been reputable and he has never bargained for political backing with corporations or jobbers. Such a man is worthy of popular con- fidence and can safely be trusted with the conduct of the affairs cf our com- monwealth, + SOUND ADVICE TO POPULISTS. Mrs. Lease has spoken in Omaha and her denunciation of the southern out- rages upon General Weaver was un- paring. Mvrs. Loase has lost all hopo of carrying any southern state for Weaver and Field and she did not hesi- tate to repeat to the large audience that greeted her at Exposition hall the views she had expressed recontly at St . Louis as to the duty of members of the third party in Kansas, Nebraska and South Dakota, Mrs. Lease declares that shu has not changed hor views as regaids the de- mands made by the people’s party at the Omaha convention, but she is most decidedly opposed to pulling chestnuts out of the fire for Grover Cleveland. She believes that the only way to bring the southern bulldozers to their senses is to re-elect Harrison and to break up the solid democratic south. As between Cleveland and Harrison Mrs. Lease b lieves that populists should cast thei votes direct for Harrison. She realizes that Weaver statds no show of election now anc no populist can hope for elec- tion until men can cast their votes in Georgia just a3 freely as they can in Ne- braska and Kansas. The election of Cloveland would solidify the south more than ever, while the election of Harri- son would givo the alliance a chance to become popular in the south as well as in the west. There certainly is good logic in this view of the situation and intelligent populists will coincide readily with Mrs, Lease that a vote for tho Weaver elec- tors at this time is simply a vote to solidify the demooracy in the south and render the populist cause hopeless in the future. A MATTER OF BUSINESS. Every business man ought to feel a deep intercst in the pending national contest, It involves much that is of the most vital concorn to the vast commor- cial and industrisl interests of the coun- try. One of the great merchants of New York recently said that while he had opposed the McKinley bill with all his might before its adoption, he was now opposed to its repeal or any radical mod- ification of it. **We have too many changes,” he siid. “‘Business has set- tled itself to that measure und is thriv- ing. In fact, it is doing a great deal better than most of us thought possible. What is tha sense of having another chango just when all are prospering? Even the expectation of change would raise the very mischief with trade in & thousand ways, Whatever harm this new tariff can do it has done, and the country is beginning to get the good of it. For one I call it simply foolish for business men to favor more agitation, another period of uncertainty and an- other change.” There is reason to belisve that this view is held by u majority of the pros- perous business men of the country. They have adjusted their affairs to the existing conditions and they know it would mean a serious distu-bance of their business and inevitable loss to go through another poriod of tarift agita- . tlon with its attendant uncertainty and disquieting effects. Nobody could fore- see what the result of such un agitation would be and while awaiting it the whole business of the country would be in an unsettiod gondition. It have the effectflo check enterprise in all directions, &fd if there was reason toexpect & very rhéeal change, ns there cortainly would he, in the event of the democrats electitig a'president and house of representativés, thare undoubtedly would ensuo a‘general stagnution of ness more damaging than the couns try has known for many years. ivery intelligent and practical busi- ness man mustjrealize that this isso, whatever may b hig opinion of the vx- 1sting tariff, If taiff agitation is re- newed noxt year{ with the idea of effect- ing an extreme change in the fiscal policy of the country, it will be impossi- ble to keep business on the prosperous lines it is now pursuing. Capital will be withheld from investment, confidence will be weakened, industrial develop: ment will hait, labor will be in less de mand and wages will decline, and uncer- tainty and distrust will permeate evory channel of business, The country is prosperous. Iiven the democratic leaders do not deny this, though they refuse to give any credit to the tarill for this prosperity. It ficient, however, that they admit the fact, and the country being prosperous, with every promise of continuing so if existing conditions are not disturbed, the duty as woll as the interests of busi ness men demand that they shall vote with the party whose policy is clearly essentinl to a continuance of national progress and prosperity. is sul Tue Daily Drovers’ Jowrnal of Chi- “Receipts of hogs at Chi- October were 140,000 smaller than ayear ago, and 201,000 smaller than two years ago, Arrivals at Kaunsas City for the past month were 48,000 smaller, while Omaha veceipts were 17,000 larger thana year ago.” This is a straw which plainly shows the ascendancy of Omaha as a pack ing center. All the facts and indi- cations point to Omaha as the second greatest hog market in this country, and indue timo Omaha may dis isfied with second place. THE citizens of South Omaha are talk ing of a public meeting to discuss pro- posed ameudments to their city charter, which is in some particulars defect They will do well to make the work as thorough as possible, for an imperfect charter is o perpetual source of annoy- ance and trouble. The difficulty is in many that the most intelligent thought and labor are not given to the subject and the document upon which so much depends in city government is al- lowed to be a patchwork of inconsisten- cies and imperfections, eago for become cases THE record of mortgages filed and re- leased in Fillmare ' county during the month of October havmonizes well with reports of mértgage indebtedness throughout the state of Nebraska for a year past. It shows that the numnber and amount of méT™ghkes of all kinds released was greater than the number and amount of these ‘flled during the month. No arguunient is needed to prove that the property owners of this state are reducing their indebtednoss and making steady progress toward inde- pendence. JUDGE FELKER 18 recommended highly to the citizens of Douglas county as ‘‘an able lawyer, courteous gentle- man and faithful legislator.” Judge IPelker’s ubility as a lawyer may be all that is claimed for him and his courtesy will be couceded, but when it comesto being a faithful logislator we enter a de- murrer. Judge Felker’s record in the last logislature doos not commend him to taxpayers. At the legislature two years ago he was one of the members controlled by the corporations and job- bers. —_— TUTrLE and Osthoff both worked and voted to put Ketcham furniture into the cith hall in the face of the fact that fur- nitare of better quality could all have been made in Omaha at a lower orice.
