Thou shalt nut be content to go about
thy business looking like a bum, fcr

appearance is better than a letter of

Thou shalt not try to make excuses,
nor shalt thou say to those that chide
thee, "I don't think."

Thou shalt not wait to be told what
thou shalt do, nor in what manner thou
shalt do it, for thus may thy days be

And so when the Tariff duties on im
ported Scotch hosiery were increased in
ISStO there was a terrible hullabaloo set
up about the increase it would occasion
in the price of all Scotch hosiery. A
Freeport merchant, William Walton,
who always prided himself in keeping
for sale in his store the .very best of
anything made anywhere in the world,
laid in an increased stock of Scotch
hosiery, sure that the price would be
increased. But there was no increase
in price. Mr. Walton himself told us
that the makers of Scotch hosiery sent
eirculars to the American merchants
that the price would not be increased
they would pay the increased Tariff du
ties, and lay down their goods in the
American market at the same price as
formerly.
Just now a terrible hullabaloo is set
up about the increase in the Tariff du
ties proposed in the Payne bill now
pending in Congress, and foolish women
are signing petitions against it. We do
not pretend to know, and we do not be
lieve that one woman in a thousand
knows whether the Tariff duties on
stockings ought to be increased or not,
nor do we know that there will be any
increase of the Tariff duties on import
ed stockings when the bill is finally
passed or not. But we do know that
tie Tariff duties on imported stockings
ought to be increased if the result shall
be, as in the case of tin, that all the
stockings worn in America shall be
made in America by American working
men who are paid American wages, and
the price of stockings to those who
wear them will be cheaper than ever
before. The Tariff always works that
way. It did work that way in the case
of tin; it did work that way in the case
of steel railway rails; it always works
thit way. -Freeport, (111.) Jonrnnl.
