Bays It Is “the Most Ultra Protective Tariff Ever Proposed” Will Encourage Trusts and Discourage Amerioan Labor Makes Some Serious Reflections Upon the Mo- Kinley Bill as » Revenue Producer, Ex-Postmaster General William L. Wilson is credited with the authorship of the tariff bill now in force. His hands were tied so that he could not make the bill nearly as good as he de- sired to make it, and passed was not nearly as good as when it first passed the house. It was, how- ever, a great improvement upon the Me- Kinley bill and is a model as compared with the Dingley monstrosity. We quote the following from Mr. Wilson's criticism of the McKinley and Dingley bills in a recent number of the New York Herald: These bills are so nearly identical in general structure and particular items, excepting : ing as to the sugar schedule, that it may be well to consider the effect of the first bill on the revenue of the coun try. Both bills are vast and ve luminons schemes of class taxation, the production lic revenue being an incident and nate to the purpose of the American people for the gmuall part of the people. s protectionist has but one remedy, applies whether the revenue nt ord If times are ind a than 18 into he in by a that turns f their avails into pri- this reduces public ’ i ordi eficient. re money the treasury, 3 gCROCIMe vild , Ana pockets revenue, 1f t { 111 vena 1 1 LLCS Are QUprosse d and less > the pretext in by urs into of adding money than is needed treasury, he seizes the revenues of 1890, whatever its other did reduce revent lus it swept us headlon ie ure o although it weight o with heavier taxes and although rison administra. been oon Venues notwith roment the 3 ow absurd and m constantly made ¥ . is 6 clini iat recor eficita the substitution tariff for the McKinle {ll.

And to say that its rates will probably check dutiable imports to the extent of reducing the estimate to $70, 000,000 is only another way of saying that to that extent such rates are pro- hibitory. American consumers are shut in the home market to be preyed upon by com- binations snd trusts without possibili- ty of relief from outside competition. Such combinations, by joining to keep up prices and to curtail production, wage more merciless war against the employment, the opportunities and the compensation of American labor than nue ly re- could do. The falling off of importations ender the present law dispels the illusion that the American laborer is anywhere deprived of employment hy the impor tation of foreign products. The gratify- ing increase in our exports of manufac- tures is equally strong proof that those i i only larger employment for our arti- farmers. In the new tariff bill spunk is on the free list.

American Ww w hid ‘Byron W The Protectionist Performance, The cism of the Dingley bill of the Fifty-first congress, bill is specially commended as a revenue getter. The McKinley bill pointed with pride to the poor man’s free breakfast table. The Dingley bill puts upon sugar —a single item of the breakfast table— one-third of the total amount of the tariff tax proposed. The items which are supposed to belp the farmer are good examples of so setting your trap as to ‘eoteh ‘em a-cumin and a-gwine.’ For instance, we have reciprocity in order to give the farmers a market abroad for what it is assumed they cannot produce for home consumption unless they are highly protected, as is done by another gection of the bill.” Senator Sherman at His Best, Every advance toward a free ex- change of commodities is an advance in civilization. Every obstruction to a free exchange is born of the same narrow, despotic spirit which planted castles up- on the Rhine to plunder peaceful com- merce. Every obstruction to commerce is & tax upon consumption. Every facil ity to a free exchange cheapens commod- jties, increases trade and population and promotes civilization. —John Sher- man in 1868.
