AMPLE FOE REVENUE AND PROTEC¬ TION TO LABOR McKlnlev's Letter Reviewed by John De W r ltt W’arner. a Member of the Committee of Congress That Framed the Wilson BUI. Mr. McKinley begins the unfortun¬ ate high-protection portion of his let¬ ter of acceptance by claiming that in December, 1892, under the tariff act bearing his name, the country was in a condition of extraordinary pros¬ perity. He cites from President Har¬ rison’s message the statement that be¬ tween October, 1890, and October 22, 1892, 345 additional industrial plants had been established and 108 exten¬ sions had of existing plants, and that during the first six months of the cal¬ endar year 1892, 135 new factories had been built. The facts were that the two preceding years had been those of steadily increasing industrial depression. Omitting all instances of labor troubles the cause of which was either doubtful or clearly other¬ wise to be classified, there has been collated and published as a challenge to protectionists, with date and place and circumstances in each case, nearly twelve hundred instances of wage re¬ ductions during those very two years, with strikes against them or lockouts by employers in order to force accept¬ ance. The number of new plants and factories and extensions of such quoted by him from President Harrison is so petty, when the size of this country and the myriads of its industries arc taken into account, as to be but a trifling offset to the terrible record of of disaster then daily being added to, and in reality a humiliating confession of the failure of McKinley legislation which has promised better things. As proof of Democratic depravity Mr. McKinley then quotes from Presi¬ dent Cleveland’s message of August 8, 1893. It correctly characterized tho condition of our country eight months later, when its condition, still under Republican legislation, had reached such a crisis that Congress was called together in midsummer to save our finances from ruin by tho repeal of the purchasing clause of the Sherman act, for which Mr. McKinley had voted and which the party which now poses as a knight errant of sound finance had vociferously pointed to with pride in its platform of a short year previ¬ ous. The abyss from which the action of the Democratic Administration then rescued the country was but the end of the descent upon which it had been started by the twin “protection” sis¬ ters. Mr. McKinley says that from 1880 to 1892 we had “a protective tariff un¬ der which ample revenues were col¬ lected for the Government and an ac¬ cumulating surplus.” Of these years he was responsible only for two—1890 to 1892—during which his law was in operation. So far from a surplus ac¬ cumulating under his bill the annual surplus had fallen from $106,090,000 (in the year before the passage of the McKinley bill) to $37,000,000 in the first year of its operation, t£>$10,000,- 000 iu the second year, and to $2,300,- 000 in the third year, and had turned to a deficit of $89,000,000 in 1894, the last year before its repeal. Sach is the demoralization of our finances, resulting from Republican legislation, with which our commerco and manufactures have struggled for years; and Mr. McKinley's figures by which, charging to the Wilson bill the ruin caused by the Sherman act, he strives to make the McKinley bill tolerable by comparison, are not merely unfair, but, when rightly read, the best proof that he is wrong. That, under all the circumstances, our ex¬ ports of manufactured goods are so nearly the maximum figure for our most prosperous years; that the bal¬ ance in our favor of our foreign trade is so large and so rapidly growing, shows how much the Wilson bill has done to offset the disaster bred by the Sherman act. Mr. McKinley charges the Wilson tariff with failure to raise revenue sufficient to satisfy the needs of Gov¬ ernment. What does he mean? Does he not believe that, even from a pro¬ tectionist standpoint, all interests of business demand that in adjusting a tariff it should be so fixed as to remain without substantial change for a con¬ siderable period, say eight or ten years? If this bo true, must he not also admit that its rates should be so adjusted, not in view of the maximum revenue probable under exceptional prosperity or to the possible minimum under an extraordinary depression, but to the probable average of condi¬ tions during the entire term contem¬ plated ? To adopt the latter measure, Mr. MoKinley must admit, would be wantonly to overtax our people and deraDge their finances by locking up in the Treasury an increasing propor¬ tion of our inelastic circulation. The monthly receipts and expendi¬ tures of our Government each vary so much, both in fact and in relation to each other, that any argument drawn from comparing single months would be misleading. But if we take the first complete year under the opera¬ tion of the Wilson bill (the one ending June 30, 1896, and one of extraordin¬ ary depression) we find tlie deficit for the whole year to bo some $26,009,- 000 only. Even during that year not merely had our pension expenditures shown the beginning of a decrease which must rapidly accelerate, but our postal receipts had shown such a tendency to increase as, through these two sources alone and without any im¬ provement in business, to turn tho deficit into a surplus before the act shall have lasted half of its natural life. It is not, however, claimed but that any conceivable revenue could be turned into a deficit by Republican expenditure. That, however, consti- tutes no excuse for attempting to meet limitless waste by pitiless taxation. And if for any reason it becomes desirable to provide for more revenue it can be and it should be raised by taxes on wealth, or by tariff or excise upon articles comparatively those ol luxury, rather than by increased tax¬ ation upon wool and sugar. For these are the two articles which—the one in clothing and the other in food—have beoome at once the leading ones of all those consumed by our people, and those as to which the poor and the rich are most nearly on a par as to per capita consumption; and upon which, therefore, any tax is ideally vicious as an adjustment of burdens in pro¬ portion to want rather than wealth. Even were Mr. McKinley correct in his charge that the Wilson act is in¬ adequate for revenue purposes, hie proposal now to increase taxation would be none the less absurd when we consider the actual condition of the Treasury. At the beginning of this fiscal year it contained of free cash some $270,000,000, that is to t&s, $170,000,000 in addition to the $100,- 000,000 gold reserve. It is true that of the receipts of bond sales a portion had been used to meet Treasury defi¬ cits—by far tlie greater portion oi these having grown under McKinley’s own bill. Bat as a net result there remained at tho beginning of this fisoal year, a couple of months ago, sufficient free cash in the Treasury, after making provision of $100,000,- 000 for the gold reserve, to have met, without additional taxation, all defi¬ cits for six years to come, even though pension expenditures should during that time remain—as they cannot—at their late high figures, and though postal receipts should stop increasing —as they will not—and though busi¬ ness should remain until 1902 as de¬ pressed as ft has been ever sfnee, the Treasury was put at hazard. Under such conditions, with a surplus in the Treasury above the gold reserve, of more than 10 per cent, of the entire circulation in the country outside of the Treasury, Mr. McKinley proposes, without any necessity for revenue, and solely as a sacrifice to the protection fetish, further to tax our people and further to contract the currency. Mr. McKinley charges that American labor is not sufficiently protected un- der’the Wilson bill. What would he have? The average duty loviod by the Wil¬ son bill upon all imports, including free as well dutiable ones, is above 20 per cent., which is about the total la¬ bor cost in American products. In the more highly developed manufac¬ tures it is of course higher. Of these those of irou and steel and textiles constitute the greater part of our im¬ ports, and steel rails and cotton and woolen sloths are probably the. most representative items. Taking the re¬ ports for 1890 and 1891 of the United States Commissioner of Labor, we find that the total labor cost per ton of steel rails “from materials in earth to the finished produot” was then in the United States $11,59, in Great Britain $7.81 and on the Continent somewhat higher than in Great Britain. To meet this $3.73 difference per ton in labor cost, the Wilson bill gives $7.81 per ton protection, which, with the trans¬ port cost of such bulky articles, in¬ sures the American producer protec¬ tion of at least his total labor cost. In cotton and woolen cloths the same re¬ ports show the labor cost then to have been on the average well under 25 per cent., while the Wilson bill protects, them by duties averaging 40 per cent., or, with every allowance (and adding nothing for transportation), giving protection of more than the total la¬ bor cost. If, in fact, labor, with such a tariff, is not sufficiently subsidized, even from the protectionist stand¬ point, would it not be well before pro¬ posing further taxation to find out what proportion of the tariff taxes la¬ bor actually erets, and into whose pockets goes the bulk of the “protec¬ tion” claimed to ha imposed for la¬ bor’s sole benefit? John De Witt Warner. McKinley’s False Statements. *’Work and wages have been cut in two,” said Mr. McKinloy to the West Virginia editors. Isn’t it dangerous tc make wild and self-evidently false statements such as this? Do they not tend to cause people to suspect that the man who utters them is either a foolish fellow who never kuows what he is talking about, or else a person who is reckless with the truth? The truth never needs the crutches of ex¬ aggeration, and their nee is a confes¬ sion that the tiuth is net there.—New Fork World.

The Masses Would Be Injured by Dearer Goods. The support of the McKinleyite doctrine of high taxes and dear goods comes almost entirely from the men who have been persuaded that higher prices are better than cheapness. It is because of the belief that more pro¬ tection will raise prices, and that in some way this will help the producers, that in spite of the utter failure of Mc- Kinlevism four years ago, there are still some people whef are willing to try it again. "When it is a question for each in¬ dividual whether he pre f ers to pay high or low prices for commodities, there is no difference of opinion. Every one wants to buy where goods are sold cheapest for any given qual¬ ity. Nobody wishes to see the things he needs made dearer, either through natural or artificial causes. This is a law of human nature. When it comes to selling goods the case is different. The people who sell want high prices for their products, and the promises of the protectionists to aid them by shutting out foreign competition with heavy taxes, is there¬ fore very attractive. Without consid¬ ering what the ultimate result will be the producers are inclined to favor the policy which makes goods dear. The fallacy of high prices argument lies in the fact that each and every one of the 70,000,000 Americans are consumers, and only a comparatively small number of them sellers of goods which are affected by the tariff. The millions of farmers, planters, farm laborers, etc., cannot have the price of their products, of which a surplus is annually exported, increased by tariff laws. The millions of workers in mills, factories, mines, etc., cau get no advantage from a policy which merely increases their employer’s pro¬ fits and in no way advances wages, which depend on the competition among employes. Even if the employ¬ ers could be compelled to divide with their workers some of their profits this would not compensate for the in¬ creased cost of living resulting from a general advance in prices. The whole question of cheap goods versus high protection prices is there¬ fore a matter of figures. The best inter¬ ests of the 70,000,000 people who buy things are all on the side of low prices. The selfish interests of a few manufac¬ turers are on the side of taxes which makes goods dear. It should not be hard to decide which policy is fairest and best.) The People Versus Plutocracy. In the matter of the action of tho People versus Plutocracy, the formal pleadings of the parties have raised the issue of the standard of monetary currency. But the verdict in the great trial now proceeding before the Amer¬ ican people should be given not only with strict regard to the evidence pro¬ duced, but also with reference to the character, and credibility of the parties producing it. The Democratic party has always been the friend of the toil¬ ers of the Nation and has ever stood as the champion of equal rights and individual liberty. It represents the best interests of all the people. And yet it is claimed that they are now en¬ deavoring to accomplish the ruin of the country, to depress labor, bring about panic, shocking credit and par- alyzmgevery industry. Can it bo pos¬ sible, is it reasonable to believe that the Democratic party is about to com¬ mit hari-kari? • That its special object is to render the people miserable and to spread universal ruin V The Democracy which we love and for which we stand has ever been the firm and faithfui friend of tho poor and weak as against the rich and strong. The Republican party is at¬ tempting to pose as the guardian of the people, who will hardly be de¬ ceived by the cheap, false halo with which it seeks to decorate itself. That party comes into court with unclean hands, stained by the crime of a stolen Presidency in 1876. It did not hesitate the most daring and despic¬ able treason by assassinating the in¬ stitution under which we live, and undermining the best hope of every lover of the human race—government of the people, for the people, by the people. The counting out of that matchless statesman and Democrat, Samuel J. Tilden, from the Presidency, should never be condoned or forgotten and the professions of patriotism coming from the party that perpetrated that wrong bears upon it the stamp of fraud and insincerity. If the country needs to be saved, let it be saved from the clutches of a party -guilty of the foulest crime in American history—tho disgraceful robbery of the Presidency in 1876,— New York Suburban.
