TAXING POOR MAN'S
COAT OFF HIS BACK
Concrete Illustration of What a Rcpublican
Tariff Really Means
Causes Workers to Think.
Concrete examples of he v.- a protective
tariff operates are causing the
working man, the ''poor man." to do a
lot of thinking nowadays. He is "beginning
to. understand whether it is
not about time to call a halt on the
Republican practice, of taxing the coat
off his back and threatening him with
the loss of his shirt ana his socks if
he decs not submit.
All through the present tariff law,
passed by a Republican congress and
endorsed by a Republican President
as THE BEST TARIFF BILL EVER
PASSED, are to be found discriminations,
the higher duty on the cheaper
article, ..ie lower on the shoulders
of those least able to bear it the greater
burden cf the protective system.
Here are some illustrations: i
The cheapest wool blankets bear a
duty of 165.42 per cent.; the dearest,
104.55 per cent.
Flannels, not more than 40 cents a
pound, are taxed at 143.67 per cent.; j
over 70 cents a pound, 76.37 per cent.
Wool plushes, cheapest, 141.75 per '
cent.; dearest, 95.33 per cent.
Knit fabrics, cheapest, 141 per cent;
dearest, 95.53 per cent
"Stockings, worth from $1 U $1.50
a dozen, 76.37 per cent; from $2 to
$3, 59 per cent
Hats and bonnets, worth not over
$5 a do7en, 62 per cent; over $20 a
dozen. 35 per eent.
Carpets, highest priced, 50 per cejat;
thfil used for mats and rugs, 126.9B. pef
cent. W
Women's gloves, nnlined, 4$?pee
cent.; lined, 34 per cent.; longest
gloves, unlined, 42 per cent.; Hned, 29
per cent
Hen's gloves, worth less thap $3
dozen, 66.28 per cent.; eostfflept gloves,
14.45 per cent.; leather, unlined, 44.58
per cent; lined, 29.1TO per cent
Buckles, cheapest^ 77.48 per eent;
dearest, 26.3 per cent.
Uncut diamonds bear a 10 per cent
duty; imitation diamonds, 20 per cent.
The humble firecracker bears a
97.02 per cent, duty, while elaborate
fireworks bear but 70 per cent.
Matting, smaller and cheaper grades,
43 per cent.; costlier, 24 per cent.
Watch movements, seven Jewels, ?
66.02 per cent.; 11 jewels, 40.41 per
cent.; 17 Jewels, 34.45 per cent.
Underwear, cheapen, 56.90 per
cent.; dearest, 50 per cent.
Dress goods of wool, cheapest,
105.42 per cent; dearest, 94.13 per I
cent.
Velvets, cheapest, 105.22 per cent.; I
dearest, 49.55 per cent.
Silk handkerchiefs, cheapest, 77.44
per cent.; dearest, 59 per cent.
Scissors, worth 50 cents a dozen, j
52.21 per cent; worth $1.75 a dozen, ;
46 per cent. j
Table knives, fancy grades, 57.40 j
per cent; bone handled, 69.43 per
cent.
Butcher knives, best grades, 52.10
per cent.; cheapest grades, 93.55 per
cent.
Files, smallest, 81.29 per cent.;
longest, 2G.81 per cent.
Shot guns, worth from $5 to $10, ;
47.67 per cent; worth over $10, 45.46
per cent.
These are only a part of the discriminations,
gleaned from a swift j
conning of some of the schedules. Re- !
duced to simplest terms, they mean
that the poor man is taxed higher than j
the rich man.
A Marvelous Escape.

hope and courage to persons afflicted
