Panperism in England.

In the form of n postscript to Il. Il.
Porter's letters on the decay Of trade
and commerce in England caused by
free trade, Mr.. Moore publishes the
following facts in the New York
Times: In the year ls49, England al
though having reduced duties and tax
alton to some extent, still had gene
raj tariff which taxed some seven or
eight hundred articlev >>and
the navigation laws were repealed
during the very year--lSl9--by
Lord John Russell. Free trade, with
the exception of the duties or tel, cot.
fee, tobacco, spirits and wines, and
! some few dried fruits, commenced, as
we all know, in England ia lSG0.6l,
when Mr.. Golden made the treaty
with France. Then, during the tariff
and protection year of Is49, when the
navigation laws were in force, pauper-
ism in England and Wales stood
as follows: Paupers of every descfip.
tion, indoor aud outdoor, adults, able
bodied, and all others--in fact paupers
of all descriptions, were in number
93i, 40 souls. Now, the popula-
ton of England and Wales In 1910 |
was II ,56j. 660 souls. IL therefore fol- |
lows that there was a pauper TO every
Is 20 OF the population. This was the
state of affairs under protection in |
England and the navigation laws.
Thirty-four years have passed, and
England, according to Mr.. Porter's
doleful letters, has nearly ruined the
labor and profit of the country through
the baDefui Influence of free trade, and I
caused great distress. Let us, there
fore, see how pnuperism has progressed
through the curse Of free trade. The
official returns for 1883 give the total
number of paupcrs In England and
Wales, indoor and outdoor, adults,
able-bodied and others--in fact, pau
pers of all classes and description, rs
100, 296 souls. Now, the population OF
England and Wales In 1882 WAS 26,-
406, $50 souls. Let us say in round
numbers for 1853 only 28,500,0O0. (The
natural increase is about $50, 900 annu.
ally. 1t would follow that In
1883 there was pauper
to every 33.l4 OF the popula-
ton of England and Wales 10 make
the matter short, the facts before us
are these: 1S49, total paupers in Eng
land and Wales, 93i ,dl0; 1883, under
the curse OF free trade, total patipers
I'm England and Wales, 100, 256 de-
crease Of paupers under free trade,
125, I23. In 1910, under the glorious
policy of protection, there
was a pauper to every Is 20 of
the population of England and Wales.
In 1888, after the curse of free trade
has sat upon English commerce and
industry for q period OF twenty-three
from 1860 TO 1888, we
find one pauper 10 every SO. II Of the
OF England and Wales.
