By TTII.I.IAM H BEBNABD. WILMINGTON, N. C. Thuesdat Evening, Oct. 16, 1884. EVENING EDITION. WAGES-DECEIVED WORKDIGIIIEN We verily believe that the greatest fraud practiced in this country is that practiced upon the laboring men concerning wages. The; Republicans of the Blaine-Porter school make the most misleading statements possible relative to wages in this country and in Europe. "The first i deception is, in insisting that Protection necessa rily causes better wages. - To this the reply is ; manifest: first, that wages in England, where the Tariff is placed upon but few articles, are nearly double what they are in the High Tariff countries ion the Conti- j nent, namely, France and Germany. So High Protection does not always make high wages. Second, in the United States there has been High JL. A VIICVV1VU M. Vl 11 TV SXkVJ -WU1. J VU1 kJ and to-day tens of thousands of work ingmen are on half rations"or are at a starvation point. i - But- the Proteptioniste, in their studied attempt to '"deceiv, manipu late figures in such a way as to in duce the workingmenjto believe that they j are paid very much more in wages than the corresponding class in England. They are made to be lieve that a carpenter or butcher or weaver in England does not receive half as much as this class receive in the United States. The manner of . comparing is very deceptive. ' Mr. Porter, who does up the misleading business for the Re publicans, tries to impref8 uponj the laboring men; that a change in the present High Tariff would bring them to starvations wages. v Protec tion really seems to have dope that already for some hundreds of thous ands of Republican voters. " ' Bnt what are the facts ? Turn to Minister Lowell's reports as ta the prices of laborih England.- He is a I 4. - . . . I Republican . office-holder , of the highest character. Compare j his figures with the census reports for the United States. Here is the com parison and you can see for yourself : Iron and steel- Blast furnaces, Eng..$l 04 TJ.

The Boston Post says: . ' "American workingmen have been fooled time and again by- the Republican politi cians who thrive on their credulity. Are ney to be fooled once more 1 . The 'free trade' spook ought to be about played out by this time.

The ob- ject is ito showG starving workmen that their condition is much better than the condition of British work- men who are not starving. Of eourse they do not put it this way, but it amounts to that. The Protectionists - t, it ' onnonr thftt are trymff to make it appear inn their system of robbing six men for the benefit of one is the true system and works wonders for American laborers. !

Free Trade makes wages high in England, if it be true, as is claimed by the Protec tion orators and writers in this coun try, that it, is the Tariff and nothing else that affects wages. The Herald puts it thus: 'If Protection does influence wages, then its advocates must account for the fact that wages in Germany are as much below those of .England as those paid in England are below those paid in the United Btates.7 And now another view: Protection in excess has been given. in the United States since 1861. The T riff until recently reduced to 43 per cent, average was 46 per cent. What has followed? Has it caused! the country to be really in a healthy condition? . Are the varied industries flourishing in fact? Are the work ingmen happy, contented, prosper ous, well cared for? The New York Graphic gives the following sum- mary wuicu. wua tu ic.

State at any election, and with a majority of over 30,000 on the vote polled, Ohio has been saved to Blaine by little more id an nan me majority , , a buuu , xv- ?ublioan vote would have given him. Tii8 is a ; Republican victory that strongly foreshadows Republican de feat in November. On the other hand, West Virginia is reported as Democratic by 'a ma jority largely in excess off any jma jority ever cast against thfrcombmed Republican Greenback1 'vote, and that result has been achieved without exhausting the resources of the party throughout the nation.' Indeed, it was accomplished not only without lavish expenditure, bnt ip the face of one wing of the Blaine debauchery that covered Ohio. West Virginia was the picket line of the Southern Electoral vote, as Ohio was the picket line of the Republican West, and Northwest, and West Virginia has increased her Democratic majority with moderate effort, while Ohio, has reduced her Republican majority after the most exaustive and costly contest of our political history. The Presidential battle is now re manded to New York, and Cleveland starts on the home-stretch vastly in the lead and with odds largely in his favor. With Ohio saved only by the most violent party efforts, Indi ana is not a doubtful State. Her vote will be given to Cleveland; and Illinois, Michigan and Wisconsin will tremble in the balance. New Jersey may be counted as safe for Cleveland; New York and Connecti cut will be desperately disputed, with Blaine ou the outside track, and New Hampshire and even Massachusetts will demand desperate Republican effort to hold them 'to Blaine. The vote of New York win now decide the great Presidential battle of 1884 as it settled the desperate struggle of of 1880. The present outlook pro mises a majority of from 30,000 to 50,000 for Cleveland, iri New York, and the aspect of the contest must be essentially changed if Grover Cleveland shall not be elected Presi dent in November.

Between 400 1 and 500 operatives were thrown out of work, and six weeks of ldlenessrhas reduced most of them to destitution.

A written agree ment, circulated among the mills to close for one week, commencing Saturday night, has been signed by thirty-one mills, and will slop over one million spindles of a to tal of 1,400,000 employed on print goods. It will throw ten thousand persons out of work for a week, and the prospect is that unless the market improves the shut-down will continue indefinitely. The shut down includes every cotton goods mill in the city except those making fancy goods and a few large print cloth mills controlled by a combination of capitalists, which can af ford to run during the dull times. The loss in wages by the. stoppage of these mills will be $75,000 weekly. FINANCIAL. New York Stock Market Weak and I.ower.

Db. John W. WnxiAMsoNjJACKsoN, Tens Extracts from Communication on the Therme'ilk Action of the Buffalo Lithia Water in the ''Virginia Medical Monthly" for February, 1877. "Their great .value In Malarial meases and Sequela has been most abundantly and satisfac torily tested; and I have no question that it would have been a valuable auxiliary in the treatment of the epidemic of Yellow Fever which so terribiy afflicted the Mississippi Valley during the past summer. I prescribed it myself, and it gave prompt relief in a case of Suppression of Urine in yellow Fever, and decidedly mitigated otlur dis tressing and dangerous symptoms. The patient re covered, but how far the water may have contri buted to that result (having prescribed it in but a single case) I, of course, cannot undertake to say. - There is no doubt, however, about the fact M its administration was attended by the most bentji dal results."
