'J'lu- keen interest manifested by the industrial 11 ixl commercial world in the subject of a faithful enforcement of the Tariff law like from the standpoint of revenue collection, fairness as be tween importers ami Protection to competing domestic producers is shown in two articles, news and edi torial. in the I'rovidence (It. I.) "News" of May 12. This ably conducted news paper, published in one of the busiest industrial centers of the United States, sees in this question of systematic un dervaluation a matter of vital concern far beyond the business circles imme diately interested at the chief port of entry, far beyond local party polities organizations or cliques. It sees that upon upon the outcome of this tierce struggle depends much more than the direct issue between importers who seek to evade and officials earnestly en gaged in trying to thwart the evasion of the Tariff law. In the days of Daniel Manning, Sec retary of the Treasury in the first ad ministration of (Jrover Cleveland, the gross sum of money lost by the (Jov ernmcnt each year as the result of un dervaluation at the port of New York was estimated by that able executive officer at the enormous sum of tf-io,- (HJO.tHMi. Whether this huge scale of robbery was maintained during Presi dent Cleveland's second term there is 110 means of positive information now at hand; hut there is small reason to in fer that it had greatly diminished, much less wholly disappeared, in the period of l.K!t;i-'!l7. Certain it is that undervaluation has for many years been the source of much scandal and the cause of vast losses to the (Joverniueut revenues. When to these elements in the case are added the serious disadvantages re sulting lo importers making honest val uations and to home manufacturers who through the undervaluation of competing foreign commodities were deprived of the measure of Protection guaranteed to them in the Tariff sched ules, the sum total of the undervalua tion evil reaches tremendous propor tions. It is. therefore, not difficult to understand why many reputable news papers in various parts of the country should treat the subect as of the first Importance from a national point of view. For the sake of honesty in business relations, fidelity to official obligations, justice to the lawful demands of the Federal Treasury, and fairness to the immense and far reaching interests in whose behalf the IMngley Tariff was enacted, the whole country will concur in the sentiment of the Providence "News'' when it says: "In spite of the organized aggres sixeness of rich and influential Import ers who have been accustomed to hav ing their own way in the appraiser's office so long that the Idea of being thwarted now enrages them, the puri fying methods that have recently held sway in that branch of the customs service have already put several plugs in the way of that leak of S44.(MHi,tHK), Of course, outraged selfish interests, guided by shrewd lawyers, are trying to knock these plugs out by clouding tiie issues, thereby fooling public sen timent and hoodwiuking the adminis tration. Hut it would be a pity if they should succeed." CM.UI'OIiT KOR THE ANTIPODES. The .Melbourne '"Age" of March 13, ISiMt, prints an extended leter from its New York correspondent In which the great facts of American trade, commerce and Industry are set forth in a manner calculated to carry much aid, comfort and ciicotirugemnt to the Protectionist party of Australia. The letter closes as follows: "Americans are now waiting to hear what the disciples of Cobden will say as to the effect of Protection in check ing a nation's prosperity. The Dingley Tariff is in full and effective operation. Foreign goods are largely excluded from American markets, yet the bars that shut these gates against the prod ucts of European mills are not closing our gates of commerce so tightly but that American goods can get out and reach the markets of every country in Europe. Every Free Trade theory has been smashed Into 11 cocked hat by the experience of the I'nited Htutes in the year IHDB. and, if present indications can be relied upon, the year 1809, bids fair to break into smithereens any re maining fragments that may exist of the old English theory that Prosjierlty and Protection cannot go hand in hand. This is truly a bad season in which to garner any kind of harvest Into the Cobden barn. It must, for the present at least, be given over to the spiders anil their cobwebs. In the presence of the tremendous array of fads piyaonted by the com mercial statistics of the I'nlted States for 18! 18, the first full year of restored Protection, Free Traders are dumb.. Never before have their theories re ceived go bewildering a blow. Forced In the logic of accomplished results to abandon their Jojjg-cherished sophism that Protection was fatal Jo trade ex pansion. they are reduced tu the pitiful plea flint trusts are creatures of the Tariff—wlii- h is not true: and that in dustries which are able to market their surplus in foreign countries are 110 longer iu need of protection- w|iic|i the American people do not and are not likely to believe.
