Philadelphia Press: One Of the COM
mercal puzzles yet to be explained is the
reason why you can buy excellent "Dlue
Point" oysters in London for shilling a
dozen why The Atlantic and Scribners
Monthiies can be bought there for the same
price; how il is that American butter cheese
and beef are now 10 be found in nearly
every village Of Scotland and England,
while the greater part Of the sea. coast Popu-
lation of Wales live on American canned
goods, all of which can be bought for far less
there than here-a good cut of American
beef, for instance. costs two pence hslf pen
ny, or fiye cents a pound. Developing our
foreign commerce is good thing, but is
there any reason why we should not he able to
get things produced here for at least the
same price that our British cousins can ? II
The Atlantic and Sc,TJnei''S are to be bought
in London for a shilling, why should we
pay more than a quarter of dollar for
them ? or, what is a more vital question,
with American beef at FIVE and six cents a
pound at retail, why is it that the lowest
price in the wholesale markets here is u
cents pound, and that without the added
expense Of transportation and other Incl
dentals? An explanation is in order from
the producers.
