LOW DUTIES MAKE HIGH PRICES

lhs seeming paradox, rather the converse
OF 1t, that High Duties make Low Prices, about
which the Wings have been so often twitted by
their opponents, is boldly advanced by Sir Ro-
BERT PEEL, and sustained by irrefragble proofs,
In his speech recently made to reconcile the land
ed interest of Great Britain to his new schema
OF Commercial Policy. AS he is now Free
Trade man, we suppose he will be regarded as
good authority by our opponents.-At any rate.
we do not exactly see bow they will be able sa.
tisiactoriiy TO dispose of his facts. We take the
following items CONDENSED from his speech by
the Lynchburg Virginian,) in support of his DO
stion:
FLAX.-ln 1874 the duty was glO Ids. Cd. per
ton 1t is now nothing. The price OF flax in
1913 was 65 TO G7s.; in 1914, 63 10 6S i'm IS45.
oi to GO; in January 1876, from 20 to SO-show-
ing an augmentation in price co.emporaneously
with the repeal of the duty.
LARD-ln 1912, the duty was reduced from 8
70 shllllngs per cwt; and in 1915 was repealed
altogether; and yet casks Sir Robert triumph
antly) "what has been the price of lard 90 In
nuary 1916, CO.
WooL.-ln 1914, the duty on wool was alto
gether repealed, in despite of the strong profess
tations OF the growers of the article that il would
result in great loss to them. snow, what, tasks
olr Robert,) has been the reduction in price Z! In
1912, the price of Southdown wool, when there
was duty upon the foreign, was lid, of Iono
wool, lOd.; in 1914. CATER the duty had been re-,
duced,) the price of Southdown wool rose from
Id, the price in 1912, to Is. 3D., and of long
wool Is. Cd. also. [Ilear, hear i In Decem,
Der, ls45, eighteen months after the total reduc-
uon OF the duty, the price of Southdown wool
rose from Id, the price in 1912, TO Is. 4Id.-
The average price in December, 1916, of South
down, was Is. i'd, and of long wool Is. Cd
Hear hear j Such have been the effects of
this reduction, made in 1912, so far as domestic
agriculture is concerned"

Gov. Mcdowell did denounce the spoils svstem
in his speech; but insists that his views. as
taken from his letter, are democratically orthodox

Such character, together with the fact that there

OF no ordinary kind.
