British Monopoly.

It has become quite the fashion of
free traders to speak Of protection
rs a means OF establishing monopoly.
How there can be monopoly of a
business in which all are free TO en-
gage is not plain, is in fact foolish
nonsense TO assert. Those who speak
of such manufacturing as is encour-
aged in this country as monopolistic,
do not understand the term they use.
70 give man monopoly OF any
branch OF business would be TO
grant him the exclusive right to con-
duct that business. That is not, nor
has it ever been, done. Perfect free
dom to engage III any industry con-
tcuanced by law is the inalienable
right Of every American. But free
trade would establish practical
monopoly in manufacturing, and it
is needless to say that America would
not be the favored country. Cen
turies Of protection, which British
statesmen to-day SO loudly condemn,
have given 70 England an enormous
ly wealthy manufacturing c ISIS.
Rates Of interest are lower there
than here, and British capitalists can
afford to work on smaller margins.
Labor is much cheaper too. BY means
of subsidies to her vessel owners
really means of protection-Great
Britain helps her manufacturers to
place their goods Ill other markets at
the lowest possible rates. With a
view of establishing a permanent
and more lucrative traffic, the vessel
owners would favor British indu stries
in their strife against our own. Thus
the accumulated capital of centuries,
the encouragement of the govern
ment and of the commercial class as
well, the cheap labor and established
reputation of English manufacturers
would be brought to bear againt our
own. The result would be the same
as when Britain carried on like war
fare against Irish manufacturers;
our manufacturers would be
compelled to succumb. In order
20 cripple or ruin commercial
antagonist, England has placed her
wares in foreign markets at cost, or
less than cost even, in order to get
final control over the market she
sought to make for her goods. Eng
land does not forget how these things
are done, and would not hesitate to
: do likewise again. Having these
advantages over US to commence
with, can it be doubted that the
strong fight she would make in an
open market would result in the ruin
of many of our most prosperous
industries to-day? Having forced
us from the field, can it be doubted
that she would raise the prices
and make the most of her opportu-
mites? That is the way she has done
often, and with free trade policy in
America she would serve us the same
again.-Hdstings Banner.
