was as follows


The produce sent in 1913 was grown IN
ls42. when We built no mills, opened no
mines. constructed no furnaces, and made
little in the way of cloth or iron and that
of ISL was grown In 1916, when we had
increased to an enormous extent the pro-
ductlon Of cloth, and coal. and iron. Never
theless, the quantity of agricultural pro-
ducts sent to market by this one route had
increased no less than one hundred and if
IN per cent, or about ten times the grorh Of
popu'atioa Under the tariff of Isl IS, we find
the quantity decrease considerably until we
reach the last wear, when 1t is seen to rise,
and the result is that while the average of
the three years is but four per cent. more
than the average of IoiG and II, the last
year of the one period exceeds the last
year of the other by only three per cent,
although the growth of population has been
ten per cent and if we take the growth
Of those States which use the Canals as the
channel by which to send their products to
market, it must have been at least twenty,
if not twenty-five per cent. Under the
Tariff of 1912, production, as manifested
by the trade on the New ork Canals, hay-
ing grown ten times as fast as population,
whereas, under that of 1916 it has grown
only one. third as fast as population, it would
seem to be clear that protection was the
certain, as it is the only means Of arriving
at large trade, and greatness Of trade may
be regarded as conclusive evidence of
tendency to freedom of trade.
We have now to exhibit to our readers
another of the modes of arranging tables
for the purpose of producing effects so uni
yersally practiced by our free trade friends
and particularly by this correspondent of The
Union.
It's well known to them that there are two
great outlets for the trade of the West-the
Mississippi and the New FORK canals-and
that the only mode of determining what IS
the real progress in the power to produce
and the power to trade, is to examine the
two together-a process, however, far too
honest for either The Union or It's correspon-
dent, both of whom make 1t a rule to be as
cautious in the selection OF facts as they are
in the arrangement of figures. Why It
would not suit them to take the two great
highways of trade, will be understood on a
perusal of the following extract from cne Of
the journals of the day;

1t is clear that thess cannot be the years
referred to bv the Committee. They were
those in which manufactures grew rapidly,
and consequently those In which agricul-
tural production increased. To find those
in which trade decreased, We must turn to
those in which We commenced 10 close our
furnaces, and mills and mines, and to drive
all our annual growth Of population to the
West. there to sRgage In the production Of
