DEFENSE OF PHOTECTIOX.
Democrats Mast Not Be atvca Power
to Enforce Their Views
The democratic platform prom 1ms a repeal of
the tariff law containing this provision anil es
pecially denounces as a "sham reciprocity" that
section of the law under which these trade ar
rangements base been made. If no other Issue
were Insulted In the campaign, this alon* would
gise It momentous Importance. Aro the farm
ers of the great grain growing statue willing to
surrender these now, large and increasing mar
kets for their surplus! Are we to base nothing
In ssccantre for the free Importation of sugar
and coffee, and at the same tlmo destroy the
sugar planters of the south and the beet sugar
Industry of the northwest and of the Pacific
coast, or are we to have the tnxed
sugar an I coffee which a "tariff for revenue"
only necessarily Involves, with the ndded loss of
the ns\s markets which base been opened! As I
have shown, our commercial rolatlou* in Europe
do not regard this reciprocity policy as a "sham."
but as a serious tbresl to a trade aupreinacy they
have long enjoyed. They would rejoice and. If
prudence did not restralu, would Illuminate their
depressed manufacturing cities, over the news
that Uncle Ham had atiandoued his system of
protection and reciprocity. They see very
clearly that a restriction of American production
and trade and a corresponding Increase of
European production and it ado would follow.
And 1 will not believe that what is so plain to
them can be hidden from our own people.
TurllTaml Wages and Capital.
The declaration of the republican platform In
favor of "The American Doctrine of Protection"
meets my most hearty approval. Tha convention
did not adopt a echedule, buta principle that Is
to control all the tariff schedules. There may ho
differences of upmlou among protectionists as to
tha rate upon particular articles necessary to
effect an equalisation between wages abroad and
at home. In some not remote campaigns the
Issue has been, or, more correctly, has been
made to appear to be. between a high and a low
1 protective tariff, both |»rtlet expressing some
solicitous regard for the wages of our working
people and for the prosperity of our domestfo
industries. But under a more courageous leader
ship tha democratic party has now practically
declared that. If given power. It will enact a
tariff law without any regard to Its effect upon
wages or upon the capita) invested In our great
industries. The malorlty report of the com
mittee on platform at the democratic national
convention at Chicago contained this clause.
"That when custom house taxatiou la levied
upon articles of any klud produced in this
country, tha difference between tha cost of
labor here and abroad, when such a difference
exists, fully measures any possibly benefits to
tha laborer, and the enormous a tdltlonal Impo
sition of the existing tariff falls with crushing
force upon our farmers and workingmen."
Here wa have a distinct admission of the re
publican contention that Amerlcau workingmen
are advantaged by a tariff rate equal to the dif
ference between home aud foreign wages, and a
declaration only agalns, the alleged "additional
impositions" of the existing tariff law.

But. in making a reduction la taxes. It Is not

Coufcrred—Tin I'lnte Industry.
Aod row a few words !a r.carJ to the exiting
tariff law. We are fortunately al;Ie to jirixa of
iu inSueore upon production and prices br mar
ket report# Tba day of the prophet of calamity
has been succeeded by that of the trade re
porter An examination into the effect of the
law upon the price# of protected product#, and
of the com of aoch articles as enter into the Ut
htg of people of email means, has been made by
a aczate committee composed of leading senators
of both parties, with tbs ski of lbs best statisti
cians. and the report, signed by ali tbs members
of the committee, has been given to the public.
I*o such wide and careful inquiry has ever before
been made. These facts appear from the repo; t:
rlrrt-TLe oat of ftelv* entering Into tbs
use of those earning less than $1,000 per annum
has decreased up to May. im, 8.4 per cent,
while in farm products there has been an m
crease in prices, owing in part to au increased
foreign demand and the opening of new markets.
In England during the same period, the cost of
living increased 1.9 per cent. Tested by their
power to purchase articles of necessity, the earn
ings of our work loir people have never been as
great os they are now.
Second—There hss been an average advance in
the rate of wages of .7 of 1 per cent.
Third—1There has b.»en an advance In the price
of all farmers* products of lb.87 per cent and of
all cereals. 88.59 per cert.
The ninth annual report of the chief of the la
bor bureau of statistics of the state of Near York,
a democratic officer, very recently issued,
strongly corroborates, as to that state, the facts
found by the senate committee. His report
shows that la the year following the passage of
the tariff act of JKrt) the aggregate sum paid in
wages in that stale was $6,877.11*3 In excess, and
the aggregate production $4!,323.18U in excess of
the preceding year, in view of this nhowing of
an Increase in wegee, of a reduction in the cost
of articles of common necessity, and of a marked
advance in prices of agricultural products, it is
plain that this tariff law has not imposed bur
den, but has conferred benefits upon the farmer
and the workingman.
urowtn or the Tin Plate Industry.
Borne special effects or the act should be no
ticed. It teas a courageous attempt to rid our
people of a Ionic maintained foreign monopoly In
the production of tin plate, pearl buttons, silt
Slush, linens, lace, etc. Once or twice in our
Istory the production of tin plate had been at
tempted and tba prices obtained by tbe Wt lab
makers would have enabled our makers to pro
duce it et a profit, hut the Weleb makers at
once cut prlcce to a point that drove the Ameri
can beginners out of tbe businees, and, when this
was accomplished, again made their own prices.
A correspondent of tbe Industrial World,
tbe official organ of the Welsh
tin plate workers, published at Swansea,
in tbe issue of June 10, 1894, advises • nsw trial
of these methods He says: "Do not bo de
ceived. The victory of the republlenns at tha
polls means the retention of the McKinley bill
and ’ means the rapidly accruing loss of 8) per
eenk of the American export trade. Had there
been no democratic victory in 1884 the manu
facture of tin plate In the United states would
have been more rapid. It Is uot yet too late to
do something to reduce the price of plates. Put
them down to 11 shillings per box of 10,14x40.
full weight basis. Let the workman take half
pay for a few months and then turn out more.
Then 1st tbe masters forego profits for the same
time.”
And again that paper eaya: “It is clearly tbe
Interest of both employer and workmen to pro
duce tin plates, tariff or no tariff, at rates that
will drive all competitors from the field.”
la Here to stay.
But In spite of tbe doubts raised hr the elec
tions of 1800, and the machinations of foreign
producers to maintain their monoply, the tin
plate industry has been established In the United
States ami the alliance between tbe Welsh pro
ducers aud the democratic party for lie desi ruc
tion will not succeed. The official returns to tba
treasury department of tbe production of tin and
tin plates In the United StAtes during the last
fiscal year show a total production of iav-io.-MO
pounds, and a comparison of tbe first quarter,
tkM.OJ; pounds, with the last 8.000.000 pounds,
shows the rapid development of the industry.
Cver n.ouo.ooo pounds during tbe Inst quarter
were made from American block plates, the re
mainder from foreign plate*. Mr. Ayer, the
treasury agent in charge, estimates, os the re
sult of careful luqiilry, that the production ot
the current year will be UW.COC.ikW pounds, and
that by the end of the year our production will
be at the rate of WO.OOO.wxi pounds per annum
Another Industry that has been practically
created by the McKinley bill la the making of
pearl buttons. Few articles coming to us from
abroad were so distinctly tbe product of starva
tion wage*. But without unduly extending this
letter. 1 cannot follow In detail the Infiuences of
tlie tariff law of leOO. It has transplanted sev
ers 1 important Industrie! and established them
here and has revived or enlarged all others. Tba
act gives to the miner* protection against for
eign sliver bearing lead ores, free introduction ot
which threatened the great mining Industries of
the Rocky rootin'ain states, and to the wool
growers protection for their fleeces and flocks,
which baa saved them from a further and more
disastrous decline. Tbe bouse ot representatives
at Its last session passed bills placing these ores
and wool upon the free list. The people of tbe
west will know how destructive to their pros
perity these measures would be.
'londs to Illffhor Wages.
This tariff law has Riven employment to many
thousand* of Americsu men and women and will
each year give employment to increasing thou
sands. It* repeal would throw thousands out
of employment and give work to others only at ;
reduced wages. The appeals of the free trader
to the workingmen aro largely addressed to ills
prejudices or to hie passions, and not infrequent
ly are pronouncedly communistic. The new
democratic leadership rages at the employer and
seeks to communicate this rage to the employe. I
I regret that all employers of labor ore not just i
and considerate, and that capital sometime#
takes too large a share of the proceeds or profits. 1
But l do not see that these evils would be ameli
orated by a tariff policy the first necessary
effect of which is a severe wage cut, and the
second a large diminution of the aggregate j
amount of work to be done in this country. |
If the injustice of his employer tempts the
workman to strike back, be should be very sure 1
that his blow does not fall upon his own head, or
upon his wife and children. The workmen in
our great industries are as a body remarkably
intelligent, and are lovers of home and couutrv. j
They may be roused by injustice, or wlmt st ems 1
to them to be such, or be led for the moment
by others into acts of passion, but they will settle
tael tariff contest In the calm light of their No- i
▼ember firesides and with sober reference to the
prosperity of the country of which they are citi
sens and for the homes they have founded for
their wives and children.
No Intelligent advocate of a protective tariff
ctatms that it is able of itself to maintain a uni
form rate of wages without regard to iluctua- '
tlcos in the supply of and demand for the prod
ucts of labor. But it is confident'y claimed that
protective duties'strougty tend to hold up wages
and are the only barrier against a reduction to
the European scale.
Every Citizen In tbe Land Benefited.
The southern states have hod a liberal partioU
potion in the benefits of the tariff law, I Am
sure, though their representatives have generally
opposed the protection policy. I rejoice that
their sugar, rice, coal, ores, iron, fruits, cotton
cloths and other products have net been left to
tbs fats which ths vt tss of their representatives

They are not oc!y a medium

highly beneficial results from this conference,

FltEE BALLOT AND HONEST COUNT.
Political Jugglery Demonstrates the
Need of New Laws.
In ray lost annual message to congress I said
and I must yet entertain the idea that it U possi
ble to secure a calm, patriotic consideration of
constitutional or statutory changes, as
may be necessary, to secure the
choice of the officers of the goverment
Ur the people by fair apportionments and
free elections. I belleye it would be possible to
constitute a commission. Don-partisan in its
membership and composed of patriotic, wise and
Impartial men, to whom the consideration of the
questious of the evils connected with our election
system and methods might tie committed with a
good prospect of securing unanimity in some plan
for removing or mitigating those evils. The con
stitution would permit the selection of a com
mission to be vested in the supreme court if that
method would give the best guaranty of impar
tiality. This comniitteo should be charged with
the duty of Inquiring into the whole subject of the
law of elections as related to the choice of the of
ficers of the national government, with a view to
securing to every elector a free and unmolested
esercise of the suffrage and as near an approach
to equality of value In each ballot cast as is at
tainable. The demand that the limita
tions of suffrage shall be found in the law
and there only. Is a just demand, and no just
man should resent or resist It. It seemed to me
that an appeal to our people to consider the
question of readjusting our legislation on abso
lutely fair and impartial lines might find some
effective response.
Equal Representation Necessary.
Many times I have had occasion to say that
JawA and election methods designated to eive
unfair advantages to the party making them
wou.d some time be used to perpetuate in power
a faction or a party against the will of
the majority of people. Of this
!*•. se4,,n* a. to , havo an illustration
in the recent Btate election In Alabama. There
was no republican ticket in the field. The cen
test was between woite democrats. The Kolb
party say they were refused the representation
guaranteed by law upon the election boatds,
and that when the courts by mandamus
attempted to right this wrong an appeal
wa* taken that could not be heard until
after the election made the write ineffectual.
Ba lot boxes were thrown out f<r alleged irregu
larities or dest my ed and, it is assarted, on behalf
of one-half, at least, of the white voters of Ala
bama, that the officers to whom certificates have
been given were not honestly elected
rcurity for lhe Personal or po
litical rights of any man in any community where
any e ther man in deprived of his per»onal or t o
litlcal rights The power of states over the
qut-stlon of the qualifications of electors is
ample to protect tnem against the dangers
ot . .?n a iKnor,ttntv cr depraved suffrage,
* .H?0./a*,l‘and f*>nt every man found to be
qualified under the laws shall bo made secure in
the right to cast a free ballot and to have that
ballot honestly counted cannot be abridged Our
old republican battle cry,"A free ballot and'a fair
count, comes back to us.not only from Alabama,
but from other states and from men who,differing
with us widely in opinion, have coins to s.*» that
parties and political debate are but a mockery if
when the debate is ended, the judgment of bon
eat majorities is to be reversed by ballot box
frauds and tally sheet manipulation In the inter
Mt of the party or party faction in power.
Unfair Apportionments.
Those new political movements in the states
and the recent decisions of some of the state
courts agaiust unfair apportionment laws en
courage the hope that the arbitr.™
and partisan election laws and practices which
‘YTa ,e‘i Inay, bB corrected by the
thi9Jfws ,mide e*l',al »nd bqn-rartisaa
and the elections free and honest. The republi

assurance of free end honest elections

not doubt, place our relations with

Tb® anion soMi-rs and sailors are now vete'ans
of time as weii as of war. The parallels of age
have approached close to the cicadels of life and
the end for each of a brave and honorable strug
gle is not remote. Increasing infirmity
and years give the minor tones
or 8adnem and pathos to the mighty
appeal of service and suffering. The ear that
coes no*, listen with sympathy and the heart
that does not respond with generosity are
the ear and heart of an alien and
not of an American. Mow soon again the

I have us* d every suitable occasion to urge
upon tbe people of all sections tba consideration
that no ip>od cause can be promoted upon the
lines of fawiessnew. Mobs do not discriminate
and the punishments inflicted by them
have DO representative or salutary in
fluence. On tne contrary, they beget revenges
andperpetuate feuds. It is especially the duty
of the educated and influential to see that the
weak and ignorant, when accused of crime, are
fairly tried before lawful tribunes. The moral
sentiment of the country should be aroused and
