M. fJni.Mrvi' r.i Z'oavjJJe, C. K F J The Commoner: Q. What is a tariff? A. A duty cotl.-cted on imports. Q. What is a protective tariff.' A. A duty .imposed upon ini. ports for the aid of home facto ii" producimr comn.tino. ni.; Q. What is a revenue tari ff? A. A revenue tariff" is a tariff levied for the purpose of raisin" a revenue. Q. What is the differnco be tween the two kinds ol tariff? A. A revenue tariff ia ...n for the benefit of the wind.. ni. lie, and t he government s t o p s warn n gets enough. A protec tive tariff is imposed for unvnt i....... . . . . -11 1, inuy ue ho levied as to inipoeahenvy burden without raising much revenue and there is no limit to its exnrti.maov. cept the greed of the protected interests and the patience of the people. Q. Who pays the tariff? A. The consumer. Q How can this fact be estab lished? A. fly reaon, by observ-nth... nun Dy experience. If a tariff were paid by the foreigner it would be no protection to the lorne industry. Onlv when t h o consumer must pay more than foreign price for an imnortant Ar ticle can the home nrodnr...r charge more than the foreign ;rice lor the domestic art hdo tariff paid by the foreigner wnnM give no protection to n 11 A mrn . can manufacturer. Then, ton tho government gives a rebate on raw material when the finished product is exported. Why doe the government pay the rebate to the domestic mnnnfnnri -v -ll 1 V 1 1 me toreigner pays the tariff? Rut Ain-i luiii-e is me nest loot., iin abroad, buy in the ODen market, and when you return you will pay the duty and you cannot mm any loa-igncr to reimburep you. Q Is such a tax constitutional? A It violates th snirit, of thp constitution for it collects from the many and gives to the few, but as the protective featu res n,m l oncraleil in a revenue bnv t ia dim'cult to gft a decision ou the principle involved. Q. Can the wisdom ol such a tax be defended? A. No; a policy of favoritism is never wise in a rcDublic. A government of the peeople, by uie people and for the ieople should be administered accord ing to the maxim: Ennal nrriita to all and sjiecial privileges to none. Q. Is the present protective tar 111 necessary; A. No; it is about twice as high as would be necessary to cover the entire labor cost of nrod-i-it., manufacturers. The face that we are exporting and increasinir amount of manufactures isprool mat our industries do not need i 1 me present protection. And it must be remembered that our manufactures have the benefit ol the Ireiiiht when the forpinpi - - (--- - briii'rs his sroods here, whiln tht foreign competitor has the bene fit of the Iremht when we exnnrt.

Our b-st wa ges are paid in our unnroiitwl industries and the fact that, wo export goods made with our nigii priced labor is posit ive proof mat goou wages do not d-nend on protection. The labor ormni i i iu ions nave done far more to increase waes tnnu nll tho t in laws. Q. What about the homo m:ir. ket argument? A. The friends of nroteriirm claim that the fanner can afford to pay more when he buvs ho. cause the maiiufacturerfurnishes him a home market, but this is a fallacy. The staples of the farm are expoited and the price re eeiyed lor the surplus exported fixes the price received for tu part sold at home.

Is it true as often asserted by advocates of a hiirh tariff n.i ways brins good times and that tariff reform always brings a panic? A. No. Prosperity folio we I thp low tariff of 184(5. and the nnnin of 187.'5 occurred under a high, tariff The panic ol 1873 not on lv occurred under n. hwli t,...;ff but twelve years after the repub lican party came into power am eleven years before Mr. Clovo land's first election.

By putting on the free list those articles which compete with articles controlled bv the trusts- second, by tho reduction of the tariff on the necessaries of life, and, third, bv fucIi other .bun. ges in the tariff schedules as will put "protection for sake in the process of u timnto extinction" with a view of restor ing the tariff to a revenue basis. Don't Break Down. Severe strains on the vital organs like strains on machinery, cause break-downs. You can't overtax stomach, liver, kidneys, bowels or nerves without serious danger to yourself.

H is dear, therefore, I hat the bondholders do not ex pect the Democratic party to pay these bonds unless tlin pie tirder them paid, and this is uie position WlllC l t ie Demnernr ic party took in 187!) and h a s maintained ever since.
