FREELAND, PENN'A, JUNE 21, 1807.
Prices of Linens Go Up.
When tho tariff bill was about to bo
framed, tho Republican leaders stated
that they desired to be moderato and to
avoid anything liko excessive rates. Mr.
Aldricli, when introducing tho amended
measure into the senate, claimed that
his rates wore generally lower than
those of the house bill. The linen
schedule, however, is a notable one of
many exceptions. In it the senate rates
aro higher than those of the house and
much higher than anything ever befou j
known.
Under the McKiuley bill of 1800 lin
ens were assessed 35 per cent, with a
few exceptions as high as 50 per ceur. ;
ad valorem. Under the rates proposed
by tho seuato a large proportion of tho !
goods in everyday use will be assessed
from 05 to 85 per eeut and in some I
cases over 100 per cent. The following
table shows somo of the changes in the
cost of medium and low grade linens:
Price per yard, j
New duty Pros- New *
percent cut. bill. |
Damask tablecloth 109 25c 87' i
Crash for roller towels 62L 8 9' 4
Colored canvas for dress lin
ings 09 814 -
Clothing linens 99 10 22'|
Linen for butchers* aprons. 05 ID 1 3 22
The domestic manufacturers in whoso !
interests these changes are supposed to
bo made have stated that they do not
deserve over 50 per cent duty on linen j
goods, and one of tho principal manu
facturers of linen and cotton handker- !
chiefs in America (of Achesou, Harden '
Co., Passaic, N. J.) states that he does ,
not desire any advance of duty en his
goods.
Tho gross injustice of these duties
can be appreciated when it is reincin- !
bered that, owing to climatic comli- i
tions, good liber flax cannot be grown I
or linen manufactured successfully in !
this country, and when it is further re
membered that the kind of linen taxed
is tho kind that is used by the poorest
classes, while a much lower duty is put
on the liner grades.
"A License to Steal."
That must have been embarrassing
information to the United States senate j
which Statistician Carroll D. Wright fur- |
Dished that body last week concerning j
the labor cost of lumber in this country !
and in Canada. His figures showed that, j
while the average wages in Canadian I
sawmills is $1.41 and $1.71 per day |
here, the average labor cost of 1,000 i
feet of lumber is $1.28 in Canada and j
only 01 cents here. The decreased cost i
of production in this country is attrib- !
uted to the superior machinery used. I
Of course the figures prove tho free \
trado contention that tho rate of wages
paid does not indicate tho cost of pro- !
ductiou—that low wages are very often
more expensive to employers, and vico
versa, but these hard facts furnished |
by an officer of the government will not
dissuado the lumber barons from their
purpose to get a tariff on Canadian lum- j
ber so that they can the more effectually :
rob American consumers. Protectionists :
care nothing for facts. What they wait :
I is a license to steal.—National Single

SENATOR CANNON .NTRODUCES LU- I
BIN'S SCHEME TC HELP FARMERS. I
He Makes a Hot Speech and Floors All I
Opponents—Present Protection Is One !
Sided and Robs the Farmer—Ho Now
Sella Iu a Cheap and Ituys In a Dear
Market—Can Bo Protected Only by Ex
port Bounties on Farm Products—lf He
Cannot Get These He Wants Absolute j
Free Trade.
j Senator Cannon < f Utah introduced !
I on May 25 an amendment to the tariff
| bill which is likely to make trouble for
I tho Republican leaders and which may
break down the whole protective sys
tem. Tho amendment favors the Lubin
I scheme of paying export bounties on
farm products. This scheme is now be-
I ing pushed vigorously, not only by its '
author, David Lubin, but also by the j
granges cf many states and by trades j
unions aid ministers. It makes its fight j
| inside tho ranks of protection and has |
' already opened more farmers' eyes to!
the folly of tho system than all of the !
tariff reform work that has been done. !
i Senator Cannon told r nno plain truths i
i when introducing this amendment. He j
spoke in part as folio .YJ:
I It was with grt. t surprise, upon an ex
amination of the measure, that I found
j that tho g: at class of our population
| who have from the beginning not only
I supported the protective tariff party by
| their votes, but have supported the pro
tective tariff priucipio by their industry
from tho beginning of its operation,
were in a largo degree excluded from
any of its benefits. It is, I say, to sup
ply a very patent omission from tho
measure as it now stands that tho
I amendment is proposed and will be ad
vocated here until u vote shall bo had
! thereon.
Tho bill as it is offered today affords
no protection to agricultural staples.
There is remaining, I presume, no ad
i vocate of tho protective tariff system
who will contend that in this bill, with
these import duties, there is afforded
any protection or benefit of increased
price arising from import duties upon
any of those commodities of which we
export our surplus, nor are there re- j
maining at tho present time in tho
school of protection very many men |
who will contend and none who will
1 prove that the indirect protection afford- i
ed to the farmer by the tariff on man- (
ufactured poods is sufficient com pel is a- :
tion to him for the vast cost entailed ;
upon him in carrying the protective |
tariff system upon manufactured goods, t
It has become apparent to all thought
ful observers, and certainly it is known j
1 to all who have any direct connection ;
with tho agricultural industry of the j
United States, that the farmer cannot,
and tho man who reads him well knows
that tho farmer will not, much longer
bear this burden.
Thero aro three remedies possible.
The second remedy, and ouo which I, j
as a believer in protection, would bo |
, ready to accept rather than to hold to
and vote for an inequitable bill, would
be absolute free trade, by which tho ;
farmer might buy as cheaply as he is j
compelled to sell, and that remedy this i
congress will not seek to enforce. There j
remains, then, but the third—the appli- ;
cation of an export bounty which shall
I in a measure givo restitution to tho !
farmer for tho higher prices which he is
j compelled to pay in protected markets, j
No proposition based upon the decla
| ration of equal protection to all tho in- 1
i dustrios of the United States is com- j
I plete, nor can there bo successfully I
made a contention that it is just, unless j
! it gives to the exporter of agricultural
staples from the United States an cquiv- |
alent benefit to that given to the manu
■ facturer by the imposition of an import
i duty.
j A duty of 25 cents a bushel upon,
I wheat is a delusion and a snare. The
! farmer of the United States gets no ben
j efitfromit. The imposition of duty upon j
1 cotton, if that were attempted, would j
be of no value to tlio cotton producer, i
Tho imposition of a duty on rye is of no !
value tu tho furmer of the United States.
Every other protected industry has a
direct benefit from this tariff, because j
where wo do not produce in tho United
' States sufficient for our own consump- I
I tion and a quantity considerable in cx- I
j tent for export tho import duty serves
! as a means whereby the local producer I
j can enhance tho price to tho local con- |
I Burner.
The immediate benefit to the farmer !
i derived from the treasury of tho United
• States would not be all. For this com- i
| parativcly small expenditure to him ho j
! would receive for these staples moro
| than $225,000,000 in higher prices than j
jho now receives. It is true that this
i would increase tho price of breadstuff's
to the consumers in the cities, but un
, dor the declaration made hero today
that with higher prices the people will
bo more able to buy we will have a
larger consumption of wheat and wheat
' flour and other agricultural staples in
; tho cities of tho country than wo have
j now ut tho low prices.
I Mr. Butler—Mr. President, the sena
tor from Utah said he was in favor of
| about $18,000,000 export duty on whoat
! sit 10 cents a buahel. If we pay an ex
j port bounty* of 10 cents a bushel, that
i j will raise tho price of every bushel of
l wheat, whether exported or consumed
i at home, that much, will it not?
Mr. Cannon—Certainly it will.
Mr. Butler—Then, for an investment
! of $18,000,000, which tho government
would payout in the shape of an export
( bounty, the wheat farmers of tho coun
try would get their protection of SOO,-
000,000 or $70,000,000, would they
not?
f Mr. Cannon—They Mould, if thero
1 bo any truth in the protective principle.
Mr. Butler—That would bu u very
good investment.
Mr. Cannon—lt would bo a very good
investment if it were to bo made in be
half of any manufacturing industry or
any trust in the United States, but any
thing in behalf of tho farmer is looked
upon with scorn and is considered a
doubtful investment by the legislature
cf the United States.
In addition, Mr. President, it is a
very poor argument, when you have
been robbing some man for years and
he asks you for justice, to say that you
propose to continue to rob him of more j
and say that you do not know where
you aro going to get the money with
which to restore that which you have
unrighteously taken. It is the very first
I duty of the congress of the United
I States to provide a bill which shall not
! only bo honest in its present applica
tion, but which shall pay back some
! portion of that which lias been taken
| from the pockets of the toilers of this
i land.
j 1 have talked with the farmers in 20
1 states of the Union siuco last fall, and I
firmly believe that this tariff will no
: longer endure than until the farmers of
the United States can have a chance to
revise it at tho polls, if you do not give
to them some portion of its benefits.
| The farmer is bending beneath a bur
! den which ho cannot carry longer. Ho
I has been tho baekbouo of the integrity
of the United States, but there comes in
the place of tho free and independent
farmer of this country a race of tenant
ry to reap servilely where lie sowed
j nobly, men who receive their opinions
I from others instead of giving their own !
1 independent voice at the polls and in ;
; all their declarations to their fellow !
| men. ,
The senate of the United States can i
i afford to be absolutely just. 1 believo
j the amendment should be adopted.
| Mr. Chandler—May I ask tho senator
I from Utah a question?
Mr. Cannon—Certainly,
j Mr. Chandler—l heard tho senator
j speak of robbery a littlo while ago with
j reference to the tariff. Doc s the senator
j mean that tho farmer has been robbed I
j all these years by tho tariff? Is that tho
senator's argument?
I Mr. Cannon—Yes, sir, decidedly,
j Mr. Chandler—When did the senator
I first think that tho American tariff sys- j
teni was a robbery of tho farmer?
j Mr. Cannon—Just so soon as tho sen- j
| ator gavo sufficient attention to the sub
| ject to understand the truth of it. I ud
| vocated Republican tariffs as earnestly
! and as faithfully in my humble way as ;
I tho senator from New Hampshire, and I
believed exactly what I taught.
But I am not disposed any longer to
advocate a system by which one portion '
of tho populat ion is taxed for the benefit
j of another portion of tho population. I
think that it is unfair to cherish only
one class, and that the class which has
| already tho most power of self protec- j
i tion. If the senator from New Hump- 1
; shire will go across the plains of Kansas,
as I have gone, and across tho plains of
Nebraska, I believe in him sufficiently
, to think lie will come back and say that
this bill is robbery of the American
i farmer.
I I huvo stated that lam in favor of a
; protective tariff system. 1 stated that
in the guilelessuess of my soul, being a
Republican, I went out and advocated
i tho Republican idea of a protective tar
iff'. I never was brought quite so close
to responsibility concerning it before as
I am today. Heretofore I have discussed
it on the stump, advocating it in gener
! al terms, but as soon as 1 am confronted
with responsibility which obliges mo to
look more closely into its application to
all the people I am simply discharging
j my duty when I seek to amend this
measuro so that it shall be honest to all.

Republican Criticism of Taxed Hides.
j According to tho protective theory tho
] imposition of a tax on noncompeting
articles adds to their cost to tho con*
Burner. This theory would be aptly ex
emplified in tho proposed duties on
hides, as the people would be compelled
to pay more for their footwear. It is es
timated that the increased cost of boots
and shoes for 0110 your under the pro
posed duty would amount to $20,000,-
000. With free hides our manufacturers
of leather goods have bccu ablo to build
j up a great export trade in footwear. As
Mr. Blaino said when it was proposed
to put a duty on hides in the law of
1800, "It will yield a profit to the
butcher only—the last man that needs
[ it." Tho interests of the tanners and
; shoe manufacturers aro vastly more
! important than tho interests of butch
ers and western ranchmen.—Chicago

ROMANCE VERSUS REALITY.
A U I
THESE SENATORS POSED FOP. A GREAT HIS
TORICAL PICTURE—
t \ _ \ FGHIE' I
atyis-jfe
BUT TIIEY DIDN'T KNOW IT WAS A ROENTGEN
CAMERA.
New England is much concerned
about free iiides. Sonio of her biggest
industries, especially that of boots and
shoes, have been built up during our
quarter of a century of free hides. She
now sells hoots and shoes in all parts of
tho world. Taxed hides would cripple
this and other industries. Her leading
senators pretend to represent her and to
put up a fight for free hides. In reality
they will, if necessary, sacrifice freo
hides to obtain high duties on sug
ar with plenty of margin for'trust prof
its. Just why this is so should be a
matter for senatorial investigation, if
such investigation would only investi
gate. Fortunately for the Sugar trust,
hut unfortunately for the rest of us
70,000,000 people, the Sugar trust un
derstands well the art of making friends
where they will do tho most good. It
has able attorneys to advise it how to
distribute its sweets to politicians and
lawmakers and at the same tinio to
steer clear of jails.
In this way and in this way only can
we account for the attitude of not a few
prominent tariff makers at Washington.
The situation is interesting—decidedly
so.
