Are we to er one man to levy black mail upon his neighbor at the rate of 30 per cent as the manufacturer does under coyer of the Tariff for revenue law. Who is to blame for getting up this law ? It was the Conservatiyes at the instigâ€" ation of the manufacturers and when the Reformers got in the manufacturâ€" ers prevailed on them to spoil their good name and give in to protection, But the grumbler said it was Proviâ€" dence and mot the grit. But the great wave of prosperity that did come did not satisfy the people they wanted justice and fair play as well. For Tariff for protection was not and is not wiped out and Government gifts were and are as common as whiskey permits in the N. West some years ago,. Who is to blame? The Tory first and then the Grit, _ The Tory is consistent he professes to be a proâ€" tectionist but the Grit who always professes to be a Liberal has lost his pedigree. _ Unless he uphold it in giyâ€" ing 200 millions a year to the manuâ€" facturer and gifts and bonuses without number to his many friends. The Tory was bad but the grit is far worse in favoring the rich and oppressing the poor, _ What is wrong with him, revenue tax payer, what is this tariff wall to us ? It is a curse instead of a blessing. They pass a law to empowâ€" What unseen motive can prompt the Parliament and Government to place the common people, the toiler and the consumer at the feet of the man to the tune of 30 per cent on all home made goods. _ Down with tariff for protection. The rich can take care of themselyes ‘tis the poor that suffter, the tuiler and the consumer. ‘Tis off the great majority of the people, these reveques come, Why do the members of Parliament and Govâ€" ernment agree to give away the peoâ€" ple‘s money at the rate of 200 millions a year,. Who is to blame ? The party yoter is to blame with his silly nonsense sending party men to to Parliament. _ Revenue tax payer where is your common sense? How can you vote 2way your $200 a year to . the manufacturer to one that has no legal nor rightful claim to it. _ If it is not black mail what is it ? Your $50 a year to the Goyernment may be legal but it is evidently superabunâ€" dant _ We don‘t want thousands nor millions of our money given away to friends nor to make friends _ In tryâ€" ing to find out who is to blame let us go back about 20 years and we find the Conseryvatives in power as bigoted a party as you can find and holding the reins as tight as they can. But at last eloquence aud power of the silver tongued Laurier prevailed and added to the blunderbus artillery of the gt eat and Hon. Sir,. Richard Cartright »nd with guns of lesser calibre prevailed and the Conservat ryes were driven off the field. Great were the expectations of the people when the Liberals guot hold of the helm. _ Great things were to be done Tarif Reform was assured and was to be secured as well. Tariff for revenue reduced to a minimum | and Tariff for protection was to be |â€" wiped out and so of bounties, bonuses, : enbsidies and such like and free trade | ; was just to be a matter of time, _ Bui | ! it turned out in time that tariff reform | was left unfinished if not undone. Tariff for revenue was slightly touched : and taritf for protectidn left as bad as j ever and free vrade never came in. | , But as an excuse or covering for the | u infringement of these political standâ€" | ard or broken promises the party :: leaders pointed to the great waye of | , prosperity and good times that coverâ€" | h ed the land. Now let us try to analyse or diagnose these political sores and point out what each one has to pay. In Canads there are six millions of people or revenue tax payers which divided into one million of houses will give salx in each house, Then if 200 million{dollars be divided between one million of householders it will give 200 dollars for each bouse or family of six every year. And, again, if 50 million dollars be divided between one million of house holders it will give 50 dollars for each house holder of six every year, so that each house holder of six pays 200 dollars to the manufacturers tax or imposition and 50 dollars to the Government revenue, these two inâ€" direct but yearly payments and his Township or Muncipal tax beside, averaging $20. All comes on the averâ€" age reyvenue tax payers, Tariff for protection 200 million dollars in one year. follows : $ (6 Tariff for reyenue 50 million dollars in one year. To the 4 NK Editor Durham Review. Please Mr. Editor : I haye been long looking for the boundary line between Tariff for Revyenue and Tariff for Protection. At last I was surprised and pleased to find it in the Weekly Sun on the first of the 8th ('»f January lAlg t Do you doubt what I say ? Let me referno farther back than the Pacific scandal and then you just have to jump across a quarter of a centâ€" ury and you come to the Soo seandal and then after that if your own memories will serve you, it is scandal‘after scandal that I need not refer to. Now, if you confirm with your votes such & system as this.â€"Who is to blame? Think not that the Conservatives will be any better than the Liberals, for as the Scoteh shepherd would say " They are both tarred with the same stick." Are there no more McKenzie‘s nor Thompsons to befound ? Surely revenue tax payers and voters, you mus* think that honest men are scarce. We need not go any further than the : Sessional indemnity at Ottawas as a standing : proof, And egain, a similar smearing look place | at Toronto, in the days of the Hon John Sunfleld in the Legislature so much for partyism tarred with the same stick. Thefirst mentioned under Now what of this Government, with its parâ€" tially, its favoritism and its questionable generâ€" osity with an abounding revenue, a party Parâ€" liament at its backand a free hand. where will the end be? Down with the Triumvirate, down with partyism and the tarif wall, Revyenue taxpayers‘ as voters, stand like men and be inâ€" drpendent. If you stand, you are the men to wipe out partiality, bribery and corruption. As Philip of Spsin said to William of Orange, * you are the man, itis you.‘"‘ Now, if you do not siand up and be independent and vote liks menâ€"you are to blame. Revenue tax payers, . you are the very men that will be held responsâ€" 1 ible for the clearing or clouding of our political atmosphere. Vote as free and independent men and send free and independecnt men to Farâ€" | liament, no more giying away the people‘s land or money by the million, Let the voter not forâ€" get that partyisin is the mother of intrigue, bribâ€" ery and corruption. Now what will you do, will you hold up your hand and vote for such, l or. will you send independernt, honest mento,' Parliament, with the hope ofredeeming and reâ€"‘ storing to us the Integrity and rightful character ‘ of our countryâ€"â€"fair play to the working man, I sympathy for the poor ? I is, will be left in the shade of the Trinmvirate when he spreads his lurid wings the people have to pray and the nurslings rejoise. The people could get gools cheaper if ‘hese home manu/factures were in Limbo. What unâ€" seen motive has the Government in nursing the manufacturers so, or can it be that the Parliaâ€" ment and the Government have taken the manâ€" ufactures into partnership? If so, goodâ€"bve, We will have a Walpole and Newcastle adminâ€" istration before long. Then Partyism bad as it THEEDURHAM REVIEW to tax them atthe rate of 30 percent on their buying to make millionaires of those manufaeâ€" turers. Yeu may go to the Western States, Germany, Frartce er Engiand and buy goods for 100, and when you come home you will find here in Canada the same identical kind and quality, homemade and all at the same price of 180. What a blessing to find the Government with its tariff wall, the Parliament with its tariff law, aud the manufacturer behind the screen with 2)0 millions, all against us. Revenue tax payâ€" ers. voters, electors, grits or tories are we blind or stupid, or asleep, or what. to be sendâ€" ing party men to Parliament. It was £0, it is so, aud it will be so, for party strife genders corâ€" ruption, Whata isudable ambition this thing: of nation building at the people‘s expense. How gencrous it is for the Government to tax the working man, the toiler and the poor, (not touching the burden, witn one of their fingers) for the purpose of building up a land of millionâ€" aires and mansions, And to this end does not the grit as wellas the tory equally pay te this I mposition of 200 millions and if so, why not | jJoin hands and get relieved of it by sending inâ€" dependent men to Pariiament? Have we not been fools long enough? Does not the tory of one generation make the law and the grit oi | the next generation confirm it ? Where then is your pariylsm? Think of 200 millions beihg gathered off of us in one year at the rate of 30 per cent extra and intoierable and levied on grit and tory alike. Where is the wisdom or the justlce of bringing in men and then having | , Be independent and send ind dent men to Parliament if ever intend to be free from the impo of knaves. There are none so bli those that will not see, Tariff for protection is a misnomet. It should be manufacturer‘s tax or manufacturer‘s imposition for it is not levied by law it is simply an imâ€" position by the manufacturers because he finds the tariff for revenue at 30 per cent stops the cheap goods from coming in~, then he lays on this 30 per vent on is goods in addition to the fair price which addition amounts in a year to 200 million dollars then we find 200 millions off six million people ; ie equal to 200 dollars for every six cf a family or about 33 per head and this ’ all goes to the inanufacturers, A | spoilation to the peuple an enrichment | to the few. If the people were reâ€" lieved of this im position it would be 200 dollars to each family of six and so on. â€" The manufacturer reaps his 200 million of an annual harvest ander cover of the tariff wail of 30 per cent, TARIFF ror rEvENUE. The Goverment collects his revenue tax of 30 per cent at the Custom House or factory and the money so collect(d off the owner of the goods is added to the price of the goods and then the expenses and profits are added and the buyer or consumer pays for all. This is the indirect way in which the| Government collects its revenue tax, Now how long are we revenue tax| payers to submit to that piliar of| slavery the tarilf wali, That pudicial | trap by which the people are made or || led to believe that the many can ; legally add 30 per cent to the price of their goods, The Governmeat can I collect 30 per cent revenue tax but the l Manufaciurers have no such power, | | they find the tax payer in a corner and they pounce on him to the tune o# “ 200 millions a year and the Parliament 1 and the Government see all this with | ( their eyes open and still let the people | ¢ be robbed with impunity, Revenue tax payer how long will you keep sending | 1 party men to Parliament? 1 every siz or about 33 pe person in Canada, to â€" no public return save silver lamps for the i their banquet Hall, keep on paying 200 million dollars a year to the manufacturers. 200 for about 33 per head for each ament it ever you rom the imposition are none so blind as to men who make save to light their the illumination of send indepenâ€" ‘ Four Short horn Darham Bulls pure [ hred, 1 twentyâ€"three months, 2 twenâ€" | ty months, 1 one year old. | Wirurarx Morrisox, | Edge Hill P. 0., Ont. 2nd Concession Bentinck, Lot 27, W.
