WHAT ABOUT TARIFF FORM. BE- Vlews of a Great Dry Goods Merchant. N. Y. Herald, Interview. ., Mr. E. S. Jaffray, head of one of the three or four largest dry goods houses in the United States, was asked for an expression of opinion on the relation of the tariff to the busi ness interests of the country. "I cannot presume . to speak for business men in general, or even for those in my own line, on this sub ject," said Mr. Jaffray, "but in so far as my years in business here years covering nearly every phase of commercial and political change in the country qualify me to speak for myself, 1 am willing to do so." "How extensively do men of busi ness look ' upon the present high tariff as a good thing ?" asked the re porter. .: "One-half the business men of this country, in all probability, have no opinion on the Bubject There is now in the country a feeling, and I be lieve a strong one, that protection does not protect, but rather the re verse." " i - PROTECTION IS BOBBKT. . "In what way?" ' "Well, in this way. A first class protectionist tariff is successf ul in proportion as it keeps foreigners from shipping goods to this country.. The ideal protective tariff is a Chi nese wall, with no gates or ladders. Now, the primary idea of this sort of thing is to secure the home mar ket to the domestic manufacturer. The government' says to every man, woman and child, in the United States, 'You shall not take -your bar rel of flour, your case of' produce, your load of corn or any other com modity which you have worked for, to the markets of the world and get the highest price it will fetch. No; that is forbidden. But you must deal with a few privileged individ uals who are licensed to manufacture without foreign' competition. These will take yonr hard earned produce and give you in return the number less manufactured articles you want, but all at a price made artificially high by the tariff." It is as though the government should take from eve ry car load of wheat, from every herd of cattle or from every unprotected man's pocket a percentage of tri bute and make a present of it to some protected mill oxener or manu facturer. : "It is a most remarkable anomaly that in this- land of freedom com merce with the rest of the .world -should be hampered with all kinds of restrictions as if it were a most dam aging operation tending to the ruin of the nation. The origin of the very unwise legislation which levied duties on imports was, of course, the necessity for raising a revenue to pay the expenses of the government, and this indirect mode of taxing the peo ple recommended itself to our first rulers as the simplest and easiest and least offensive mode of getting the money, -but experience has proved conclusively during the hundred years of the nation's existence that it is the most expensive and injurious system of taxation that could have been adopted.. "When the tariff was originally im posed in-l?89 there was practically no manufactures in this country, and consequently the whole duties levied went into the Treasury. The tax, therefore, though objectionable in foiji, was uniform in its operation, and the people had the satisfaction of knowing that the tax they paid was aU devoted io the expenses of thfi.. ffovernment. . - "Gradually, however, manufactur ing commenced in the United States,, principally in New England, and the owners of .the mills- soon began to importune Congress to add to the duties on the classes of - goods which they produced, so as to protect" them from foreign competition. Congress was not slow to pass euch'laws as; the manufacturers asked for, and thus the tariff was changed from time to time, so as to shut out as far as practi cable the classes of goods which com . peted with the home product. The result was that the domestic . goods were raised in prices so as to barely undersell the imported goods with the high duty on them, and thus the en hanced price or tax no longer went exclusively into the Treasury, as it did previously, but principally into the pockets of the manufacturers. The people were as, much taxed as ever, but the tax so collected was no .longer devoted to paying the ex penses of the-Government, but went to enrich a small class of people who were engaged in manufacturing; THE ANOMALIES OF A PROTECTIVE TARIFF. - "What have manufacturers as a class done that they should be put under the special guardianship and protection of the Government and that all other citizens should be tax ed to enrich them? Why should not the agricultural class receive equal care and protection on the part of the Government? Why should not the mercantile class be provided for in a similar way? gaged in manufacturing to the whole 1 1 1 W 1 population is probably not more than nve per cent., and thus nineteen peo ple throughout the United States are taxedor the benefit of the twentieth person. This is manifestly unjust to the nineteen persons, as they derive no benefit whatever from the tax levied The twentieth person natu rally approves highly of the system .which robs his fellow citizens and enriches him, and : the great cry for protection comes almost- exclusively from the twentieth part of thepopu flation,which is growing rich on the spoliation of the rest of the people. "All restrictions on commerce are injurious to the interests of the peo ple. All 4 obstacles thrown in ' the vwaj of this free exchange tend ? to 3imimsk tbe wellbeing of the peo- pie. ' - The planter who raises a bale of cotton in Alabama, should have liberty to send it to 'England and ex change it. for manufactured goods without any obstacle being inter posed. Under our existing laws the planter must send his bale of cotton to New England and exchange it for seventy yards of - muslin, while were he a free man he could send it to old England and exchange it for 100 yards of the same quality. The value of the remaining thirty " yards is stolen from the planter and given to the Neto England manufacturer The government gets no part of this forced contribution. UNDER ANY ARGUMENT, - THE TIME FOR REDUCTION COME. "The system of raising the revenue by duties on imports ceased to be de sirable as soon as manufacturing had become an important industry in the United States. It was, only during the time that all our manufac tured goods were imported from abroad that such . a system could be practised so as to be just to all -the people. As soon as part of the! goods were manufac tured in the country and part im ported the Treasury no longer." re ceived the whole tax that was le vied, but only that part os it which was collected from the importations. -The tax, or enhanced price, was equally ' collected on that portion which was manufactured in the Uni ted States, but instead of going into the Treasury to pay the expenses of the: government, it went into 'the pockets of the domestic manufactu rers. : : ; - "If it should be considered desira ble to still raise a portion of the rev enue by duties on imports, the only plan to render such a tax equal and just to all would be to lay the duties' on classes of goods not made in the United States. In that case the whole amount of the tax" would go, directly into the Treasury, and those who paid it wbuld have the satisfac tion of knowing: .that the whole amount they contributed went to ward paying the expenses of the go vernment; and'tbat no parf of it had been taken from them for the benefit of private citizens who had no claim whatever upon them. - iV ' ' TnE EVILS OF OVERPRODUCTION. "Do not the benefits of protection in a measure offset - the harm you speak of?" "Not at all, in my opinion," said Mr. Jaffray, with impressive empha sis. "As I said before, the intention of protection, as a political measure, is to avoid foreign competition, or, in other words, monopolize the. home market. When an industry is left to buffet with foreign rivals its growth is normal according to its advantages in matter of labor, raw material and . proximity to market. In times of stress foreign competi tion ceases and seeks other fields, and leaves the domestic manufactu rer in, a position to do the same thing by exporting at a minimum or no profit to the other parts. At ' any rate the domestic manufacturer has p wide field over which he can ex tend his operations and a strong chance of avoiding a crash. But with us here we are limited by the tariff to a small section of the earth's service, and when we overdo the bu siness and hard times come there is no safety valve of any kind. Mills must stop, hands be thrown out of employment and capital stand idle while waiting for the needs of the country to catch up with us again. Our troubles in manufacturing sec tions certainly do not arise from want of protection. Look at this list with tax on each article as fixed by the tariff of 1883, which was intended to be a revised one in the interests of the industries of the country. WHAT ARE THE TAXES? "Flannels and blankets arq taxed 10 per cent, on the average; woollen cloth and shawls anywhere from 80 to 115 per cent.; all wool dress goods .are taxed from 70 to 88 per cent.; ready made clothing pays from 49 to 85 pfi- cet. as tax. for the benefit of manufacturers; and ' yet, curiously enough, after taxing the poor man's blanket and the poor woman's shawl away up in the eighties, silk goods are Jet in with the comparatively light tax of 50 per cent. These fig ures apply only to., ray. business, but the same injustice will be found to exist in relation to nearly every other trade." . "Do you consider the laborers in industries as deriving any benefit -from the .tax levied for the benefit of their employers ?" ' "I have answered that in my state ments touching the domestic manu facture. How can a laborer be bene fited by working for a concern that is exposed to financial vicissitudes such as occur so frequently in the highly protected branches of our in dustries ? The monotonous fre quency of strikes, lockouts and tem porary periods of depression in our large and small protected mills and factories must strike any thinking man who reads the daily paper.. ' ' , WAGES OF LABOR. . : "But even if there were not this constant risk to which workmen in such branches are! exposed, do you suppose that because a mill owner makes a handsome profit one year that he is going to share it with his men? Do you suppose that the wages of labor are dictated by the spirit of philanthropy which protec tionist legislators profess when they talk about encouraging American la bor? Not at all. When the mill owner makes big profits, the laborer gets the market price for his work, irrespective of any other considera tion. When a pinch comes the first man to suffer is that laborer. He is discharged, or reduced to half pay, while the mill owner falls back on the. money accumulated during the last lucky season and waits for a turn of fortune." i DOMESTIC COMPETITION. How does 'domestic competition affect the market ?" "Dome8tic competition, under a high tariff, is abnormally stimulated. When an increase in the tariff is made, for you never hear of protec tionists decreasing it, the temptation is strong to embark capitalln the in dustry favorably affected. The pro fits are very large for the moment and all are in , a hurry to share in them. Some three or four years ago, when we commenced laying rails at the rate of .12,000 miles a year, an impetus was given to 5 the iron trade that caused an immense expansion of its producing r capacity. Bar - iron was then taxed 80 per cent and steel rails 108 per cenC But now that we are only calling for 6,000 miles of rail in the year there are aljout twice as many men on hand todo the work "OH r.TY HEAD !

This question is a burning one. " It is one in which every man, woman and child in the United States has an interest. The laboring man, above all, is in tU dark on the subject. It is a question regarding which monopoly, privilege and sophistry are arrayed on one side, with truth and the American people on the other. If that is not enough to shake the timidity out of a politician' then we have no more need of them.

THE PERSONNEL. A. A. Watson, who has just been elect ed BUhop of the new Diocese, is appar ently about fifty years of age. but in reality, asln brain, he is about sixty-five. He is evidently a strong-headed and clear-headed man, vigilant, active and diligent. He is the balance wheel of the Convention, watch- J ing us progress, correcting its errors,' re- straining its haste. The stronc features of cnaracter. asd we are pleased to say, the only weuk feature, is a want of thn nnwpr of adaptation to the changed and .changing conditions of bis situation. The want of the power of adaptation is an excess of vir tue. It results from the stalwart and un bounding courage of his convictions, AF logetber we regard tbe appointment as an excellent one. Among the laity Dr. A. J. DeRosset. of Wilmington, a most remarkable man. Ap parently, he is about sixty years of age. but in reality he is said to be an octogenarian. He is full of vivacity and sprightliness, with large capacity for business and won. derf ul memory of events. , He is th het pisted and inot useful member of the body. With all his faculties Of Vninrl anrl body perfectly preserved. , THANKSGIVING. Orphan's Friend.

OUR STATE CONTEMPORARIES. -- How tiarrowly we have escaped a new compromise of position in the late contest for the Speakership, the recent efforts of many houc&t but timid Democratic leaders of opinion are too fresh in the public mind to permit our forgetting. Shortly before4 iue meeting 01 the .Democratic caucus in Washington, one of the members of Con gress there assembled said: '.'There is just one subject on which the Republican press of the country is now unanimous, and that is the wisdom of selecting Randall." With some notable exceptions, this was true, and for once the Democrats have had the back bone to decline the acceptance of advice from their enemies. The fact reveals the new departure; and, for the first time in twenty years, not only is the political situa tion propitious to Democratic victory as often before, but the morale of the party's leaders at last justices expectation of it. Fayettevi'de Observer. Our attention has been called to the fact that there is a great lack of "sign-boards" alopg the roads of this county, by a former resident. The law requires every overseer of a road to put up sign-boards at the forks of roads, with plain directions, and failing to do so for ten days after notice of his ai pointment, subjects him to forfeture of ten dollars. He is also, required to . have the roads accurately measured- and properly marked. The law also protects the over seer. To destroy or deface mile-posts or sign-boards, subjects tbe offender to a for feiture of ten dollars, and. besides, he is deemed guilty of a misdemeanor. Graham Gleaner . , FLINGS AND ABSO JVS.
