hoped that it would only be dis

iooked upon it.as a part of the tac
tics-ofthe presidential campaign,
intended to influence the Irish
vote. They regard it differently
now. The almost unanimous vote
by which it passed the House con
vinces them that it will pass the
Senate, and they have every reason
to believe that the President will
enforce it just as soon as he is au
thorized to do st>.
The Canadian cabinet discussed
the situation on Saturday, 8th inst.,
without, however, reaching any de
termination with respect to the
proper policy to be pursued. Some
members of the cabinet advised
placing Canada in a position at
mice jto meet all contingencies,
while, others thought it would be
better to wait aud see what the
Senate would do with the retalia
tion bill. They argued that even
if the Senate passed the bill, and
the President exercised the authof-
* ity given him, tlio injury that
•would be done to Canadian inter
ests before the election would not
be very great, and they thought
there would be no difficulty in
reaching a solution of the fisheries
trouble after the election.
If the Canadian government
hopes to s36 the fisheries question
settled without making such con
cessions as it is generally admit
ted this country is entitled to, it
will be disappointed. The Senate
'cannot avoid passing the retalia
tion bill, and, when it does, this
government will be committed to a
policy from which it cannot honor
ably retreat. Eitlier Canada will
have to grant to American fisher
men the rights to which they are
entitled, or else the President will
, retaliate.
The whole fisheries trouble could
very easily be settled. American
fishermen would be satisfied with
the privilege of shipping their fish
in bond from Canadian ports to
the American market. They are
denied this privilege now, and
■hence, when they have ti cargo

Valuable time. If they-eould send
their fish to market from a near-by
Canadian port, they 1 could easily
double their earnings, because they
could give about double the time to
fishing. „

protected quinine monopolists
thought the people would stand.
The quotations in this city last
week were SS.to 50 cants per ounce.
The cinchona bark regulates the
price of quinine because it is the
princidal ingredient in its compo

duty on the-bark it sold in New
York at $3 to $3.50 per pound.

Congressman McKinley in his
recent high-tariff speech in Geor
gia opposed the- placing of raw
materials on the free list, and de
clared that there is no need of
such legislation, because Rie pres
ent tariff law gives thb - manufac
turer a rebate on exported goods
that is equal to nine-tenths of the
duties he pays on imported mate
rials.
This is a singular argument to
address to an audience of Ameri
can consumers. The rebate sys
tem is simply a confession that a
tariff on raw materials enhances
the price of manufactured goads,
aod that the only hope of an
American manufacturer for selling
his goods abroad without loss is
in,the return by the Government
of nine-tenths; of the tax it has
needlessly extorted from *him.
That this puts him on an equality
with the.foreign manufacturer is
not even claimed by Mr. McKinley,
and, under modern busidess.meth-
ods, the difference of one-tenth
might easily; deprive him- of a
market.
But all this relates to goods
sold to foreigners. There is. no
rebate on the goods sold to Amer
icans, and they are evidently ex
pected to pay the whole tax im
posed by the Government, and
manufacturers’ profits on it be
sides. The existing tariff positive
ly aims to enhance:, the price of
goods consumed by our own peo
ple, and the Republicans are .un
willing to accord to Americans the
advantages that they boast that
they have extended to -foreigners.
If Mr. McKinley wishes to em
phasizo this fact we hope that he
will do so, and point out every
where the difference between the
treatment'of our own people and
foreigners under the existing tariff
laws. Such a course will make

They seem to mean to have the
farmer understand by this that
they would give him the home
market to himself by keeping out
foreign products. Now let the
farmer consider a few foct3 before
he swallows this. With the , ex
ception of tea, coffee, sugar, and
some articles which our farmers
do not produce at all, or only in
small quantities, our imports are
not farm products to any consider
able extent. The home farmer,
therefore, has the home market-
pretty much to himself now. But
he furnfehes more than 70 per
cent, of all our exports. In the
census year th9 total value of " our
farm products was $2,213,402,564.
Of this total$546,476,704, or near
ly 25 per cent., was exported. This
surplus above the home demand
was nearly 25 per cent of the total
product. Now, if he had been
confined to the home market, what
would he have got for. his extra 25
per cent, that the home maiket
did npt want? And how would
the value of his total product have
been affected if he had glutted
the home market with a surplus
of 25 per cent, above the demand?
And as he himself consumes about
one-half of his product, he can
judge for himself about how much
his home market would have to be
enlarged in order to absorb his 25
per cent, surplus at remunerative
prices. He would do well to pom
der such facts as these before
swallowing the “magnetic” talk he
hears about the home market.

The result of this intensive sys
