For the hundredth time we reply to tbU question. There Is no earthly analogy be tweon tbe tariff on sugar-whicb was a reva. one tanff-and the tariff on wool, for instance lnch is a protective tariff. The former susl 'Rined no domestic industry of any moment. gave practically no employment to American labor and capital. Under it nearly all our sugar w.is imported, and when it lu abolished there was no oollnpse of domsstie ln.ms-ry. Ihe few sugar prodnoers received in exchange for Ihe tariff a bounty, undar which th -y prosper even mora than Wor. But remove the duty on wool, which now sus tains the Immensely important industry nf sheep busdandry, and you carry death and desoU'ion among thousands of now falrlr prosperous flockmusters. Australian and Argentine wools would flood our markets till Ihe American fine wool industry was no more. After 1 hat wa should have no guarantee that we would get our wools any cheaper than now. Wo should be obliged 10 take our chances on that score. Cut about the losses we should sustain in the slaughter of flocks for their tal. low, as occurred before under a low revenue tariff oa wool, thors can be no manner of doubt. Even free sugar would not, perhaps, bo re- ceivlngthe encomiums pronounoed upon It on ery cand had the American sugar industry not been securely protected against disaster by the bounty. For, in that event, the cry of dis tress which would ere this have reached us from tbe Louisiana plantations would, per haps, causa us to pause and consider whether t was wise to Imnovm-Uh vn fa r.1 ... 1 hla nrrn A iv.. , v - uiirn. 1111 intioi K'ni ra'tirA -,.aJ ir ..ia inv itfAMmrflt onon-u ner flrarnoa l . uy munif 11. . ,,i o nits mttfiul "rough darkness and dao, . ltn eyes, then supping u -- " ieu totiim?

We oecinre u to be a fundamental principle of the tioin.icralli: party that the Fedoral Government has uo constitutional power to imposoand ool lect tariff duties, except for the purpose of rev euaeonly. We demand that tho collection of such taxes be limited to the necessities of the Government whou honestly and economically administered.

Iheso sc urces are not to ba found In r.;cant Congressional speeches, whether made hy mombora of one party or another.

To guard against such a calamity to the woo interest, if we are to carry out strictly the comparison with sugar, we should need to provide for a bounty on American wool suffi ciently liberal to take lha plaoaof tha existing Tariff. But, under that arrangement, not a cent would be saved to the people, for tbe amount of bounty wo should have to pay would at least equal and probably exceod th amount of wool duties now collected. In the case of sugar, since our homo production wna less ihnn 1 pound ia 10 of what we import abolishing tha duty of 2 cents a pound on the 10 imported, and paying 2 cents out of that saving on the 1 Imported pound, resulted in a net gain to the people of 18 oeuts, or about $1H,00.),0U0 in the aggregate. So we see that, uo matter from what point of view, there is no likeness betwoan sugar or revenue duty, nnd wool or Protective duty.
