The meeting of the Liberal Repub

The suspension of the house of
Duncan, Sherman & Cos., of New
York, will startle the country, al
though it has been prepared, since
the panic, for distrusting the solidity
of all great banking corporations.
While it may bo boat for the coun
try that all such companies, doulfng
largely in simulation's of doubtful
security should fail, it is another
fagot thrown upon the flames of dis
trust. What tho country needs more
than anything else is confidence in
commercial Integrity, which has been
sudly shaken since the war.
The old status of a successful mer
chant was based upon individual in
tegrity. A good name, before the
war, was the best collateral a mer
chant could offer. Now, how sadly
this is changed. Distrust seems to
prevail everywhere; the wealthy
capitalist of to-day may be the bank
rupt to-morrow.
Perhaps one-half of the farms in
Georgia are embarrassed with the
provisions of the homestead law. We
do not oppose these laws, for they
wore adjudged by competent legisla
tors to bo necessary to protect the
widows and orphans of patriots who
gave their lives to a cause that is lost,
and who have no government to care
for them In their extremity.
But. wo regard tho suspension of
sucli Anus ns Jay Cooke, cl il omne
genmf, ns better for tho country at
large in the long run. For tho pres
ent, however, each suspension like
that of Duncan, Sherman & Cos. tends,
unfortunately, to add to the distrust
which is already too wide spread.
Colonel Glldersloevo returned His
thanks for the favorable remarks
abrmVnW country, tn regard to tho
hope that had been expressed that an
American team would compote at
Wimbledon In 1876, he said: "We are
to have al- Philadelphia, in that year,
a National Centennial Celebration,
and we Invito the rifle teams of the
civilized world to a friendly contest
there. Should that be accomplished
you will see an American team at
lYlriibledon ill 1577.” Lord Wharn
eltne said he hoped the English,
Scot eh, and Irish riflemen would be
represented at Philadelphia.
Snlt.Lako City is in a valley sur
rounded on all sides by precipitous
mountains. Tho city contains, I
should judge, about2o,ooo inhabitants
and Is admirably built and well laid

brought down from the mountains,
uud from these branches the people
get their water supplies. Salt lake is
a very largo body of water, a few
mill 8 from the city. It is perhaps
one hundred miles long and thirty
or forty miles wide. The lake has no

DOES II DAT TO EFFECT A REDUCTION OF
PIfICES BY ARTIFICIALLY STIMULATING
PRODUCTION ?
It is hero pertinent to notice an idea
adopted by a school of American
economists or politicians,that it Is for
the advantage of u country to endeav
or to effect, u reduction of prices by
the ereution, of an artificial stimu
lus to domestic production -such as
Is almost always temporarily afforded
by un Increase of the tariff or by
which, which necessitates extraordi
nary supplies—does liavo the effect
in the llrst instance to quicken cer
tain branches of production, and sub
sequently to reduce prices, through
the competition engendered, cannot,
be doubted; Hut experience shows
that in almost overy such instance
the ruduetiou of prices is effected at
the expense or waste of capital, and
that tho general result, in place of
being a gain, is one of tho worst
events that can happen to a commu
nity. Thus, the first effect of crea
ting an extraordinary domestic de
rnand isto increase prieos, which in
turn affords large profits to those in
possesion ofntock on bund or of the
machinery of production ready for
immediate service. The prospect of
the realization of largo profits next
immediately tempts others to engage
in tho sumo brunch of production—in
many cases witli insufficient capital,
and without that practical knowl
edge of the details of the undertaking
essential to secure success. As pro
duction goes on, supply gradually
becomes equal to, and finally in ex
cess of, demand. The producers
working on insufficient capital or
with insuffieiontskill are soon obiged,
in order to meet impending obliga
tions or dispose of inferior products,
to force sales through a re
duction of prioes, and the
ethers, iri order to retain their
markets uud customers, ore soon
compelled to follow their example.
This in turn is followed by new con
cessions alternately by both parties,
who are accompanied by the usual
re.sort of turning out articles or pro
ducts of inferior quality, but with an
external good appearance slate bo
ingubstTtUted in place of coal; cin
der in the place of iron; shoddy in
tho place of wool; starch and sizing
lu the place of cotton ; pasteb aid in
the manufacture of boots and shoes
in the plaeo of leather; and day in
tiie manufacture of paper in the place
of fibre. And so the work of produc
tion goes on, until gradually the
whole industry becomes depressed
and demoralized, and tho weaker
producers succumb, with a greater or
less destruction of capital and waste
of product. Affairs having now
reached their minimum of depres
sion, recovery slowly commences.
The Increase of the country causes
consumption gradually to gain on
production, and finally the commu
nity suddenly becomes aware of the
fact, that supply lias all at once be
come unequal to tho demand. Then
those of the producers who have been
able to maintain their existence en
ter upon another period of business
prosperity; others again rush into
the business, and the old experience
is again and again repeated. Kueli
has been the history of the industry
of the United States under the at
tempt to restrict the freedom of trade
by high duties on imports, frequent
ly modified; and such also was the
effect of the war of 1861 65. To use a
familiar expression, it has always
been either "high water” or “low
water” in the manufacturing indus
try of the country no middle course,
no stability. What tho people have,
gained at, one time from low prices
as consumers they have more than
lost at another by the recurrence of
extra rates, and they have also lost,
us producers, by periodical sus
pensions of industry, spasmodic re
duction of wages and depression of
business. Meantime, the loss to tho
country from destruction of capital
and the waste iff misapplication of
labor bus been something which no
man can estimate; but to which,
more than to any other one agency,
tho present remarkable industrial de
pression of the country must be at
tributed. The illustrations underthia
head afforded by the recent indus
trial experience of tho United States
are very numerous, and are not sur
passed in curious interest by any
thing on record in tho whole range
of economic history. The following
will serve us exumplos: In 1864-65 ii
was found thut the supply of paper
of domestic manufacture was insuffl
cient. to meet the consumption of the
country, and that tho supply from
abroad was greatly Impeded by an
unusually heavy duty Imposed in
time of war on its import. The price
of paper in the country accordingly
rose with great rapidity, and the pro
fits of the paper inrnufacturers who
were then in possession of the ma :
ehinery of production became some
thing extraordinary. Tho usual ef
fect followed. A host of now men
rushed into tho business and old
manufactories were enlarged, so that
during tho years 1864-65 it was osti
mnteu that more paper mills were
built in t lie United States than during
the whole of the twelve years pre
vious. Asa matter of course, the
market became overstocked with pa
lter, prices fell with great rapidity,
many abandoned the business
through inclination or necessity, and
many mills and .much machinery
were sold for less than the eost. ot
construction; while in the Spring of
1863 the paper-makers met in conven
tion to consider the desirability of
decreasing tho production of paper
or, what is the same thing, of allow
ing their capital and their labor to re
main unemployed-on account of the
unprofitableness of the buisnoss. In
October of the same year a storm of
great, violence swep over the northern
portion of the country, and in the
Hood whieh.followed many mills en
gaged in the manufacture of paper
wore so injured as to bo temporarily
incapable of working. A leading
journal in one of the paper mamifuc
eurlng districts, devoted to the advo
cacy of protection, commenting on
tho effects of the storm, used this
language: “There seems to have
been unusual fatality among paper
mills, but this disaster will work to
the advantage ot those who escaped
the Hood, and we doubt not that
those that, did stand will do a better
buisuess lu consequence of the les
sened suply:” or, in other words,
the condition of this particular in
dustry had become so bad through
tiie infiueuoo of a fiscal poliev based
on the theory of protection that the
occurence of a great public calamity,
with a vast attendant destruction
had come to be regarded in the light
of a public blessing. Again, at Ka
nawha, Va., there aro remarkable
salt, springs, some of which furnish
conjointly with the brine an inflam
mable gas, which flows with such
force and quantity that it has been
used not only to lift the salt water
into tanks at a considerable eleva
tion above but to evaporate the brine
by ignition under the furnaces, thus
obviating tho expense both of pum
ping and of fuel. During the war, in
order to deprive the army and the
people of the Southern Confederacy
or a supply of salt, the springs in
question, at Kanawha, were rendereu
useless by tho Federal forces, which
fact, coupled also with the
imposition of excessively high
duties (over 100 pier cent.) on the
import of foreign salt, gave to the
manufacturers of salt on the Ohio
ltiver such u market t hut although
the cost of manufacturing was nearly
doubled, their profits for a time were
enormous; salt eost in 1808 at points
on the Ohio ltiver twenty-three cents
per bushel, in barrel, selling readily
in Cincinnati for forty-eight cents
tier bushel. The result was such nn
Increase in the number of salt wells
and furnaces on tbu Ohio ltiver, and 1
such an increase in the power of pro
duction, tliut the uvuilublo market,
deprived of tho stimulus of tiie war,
was.soon unable to take but little
more than one-half of tho salt that
could be produced. As was natural,
the price of salt under such circum
stances rapidly declined, and a strug
gle for existence among tho manu
facturers commenced. The furnaces
built at war prices and based on in
sufficient capital were soon crushed
out of existence ; while life was pre
served to the remainder only by the
formation of a manufacturers’ asso
ciation for permanently limiting pro
duction, uud in order that such limi
tation of production and consequent
breaking down of prices might not
be interfered with the Kanawha wells
(the proprietors of which were not in
the association,) with all their advan
tages, wore leaseil for u term of years
atu large annual rental, ealled’atcud j
rent,” and all utilization of ttiem sus
pended and forbidden. “Now had;
tho duty on salt,” writes one of the
leading members of the Association,
under date of December, 1871, “never
been raised above tiie present rate, I
have no doubt that the capital invest
ed iri the business would have been
more profitable, and that the waste
of the large amout that has been use
lessly Invested would have been pre
vented.”
LAWS ESTABLISHING PROTECTION NEC
ESSARILY UNJUST AND UNSTABLE.
One of the essential attributes of a
just law is that it bears equally upon
all subjects to Its influence; and it
would also seem clear that the gen
eral effect of an unjust law imposing
protective duties must, in order to be
effective, bo partial ami discriminat
ing, and, therefore, unequal and un
just; for if a law could be devised
which would afford equal protection
to all the industrial interests of a na
tion, it would benefit, in fact, no in
terest by leaving everything relative
ly as before; or, in other words, the
attempt to protect everything would
result in protecting nothing. Any
system of laws founded on injustice
and inequality cannot, furthermore,
be permanent. The possibility that
it may bo further changed to meet the
increased demands of special inter
ests, and the Instinctive revolt of hu
man nature against, legal wrong arid
partiality, continually threaten its
stability. Hence, a system of indus
try built upon laws establishing Pro
tection through discriminating taxes
can never have stability of condition,
and without such stability there can
be no continued industrial prosperi
ty. Ou the other hand, one of the
strongest arguments in behalfof free
dom of trade is, that it makes every
branch of industry independent of
legislation and emancipates it from
all conditions affecting its stability
other than what are natural and
which can in a great degree be antici
pated and provided against.
