MIR. GOSCHEA'S PREDICTIONS.

Mr. Goschen has recently made laboriOus
effort to convince Engishmen that their cOun-
try is still fairly prosperous under free trade
He admits that the land-Ownng, agricultural
and mining interests are badly off and that
many of the great manufacturing and shipping
houses have suffered terribly from prolonged
depression of business. He contends, however,
that the profits Of trade have been transferred
TO new classes, that the taxable income of the
country has increased, that pauperism has de-
clined, and that the lower classes have become
more providcnt and are better clothed, fed and
housed than ever before He succeeds very
well in balancing accounts so far as the present
is concerned but when he considers the future
his hopefulncss vanishes. Low prices, he pre-
diets, will continue indefinitely English manu-
facturers will find foreign competition sharper
every year; capital will yield smaller returns !;
and the country's prosperity will depend upon
its trade with its own colonies rather than the
whole world. In "A word he pcrceives signs of
retroeression in British trade owing to the de-
veopment of National industries abroad under
economic systems hostile to free trade.
Several illustrations o., the relative decline OF
British industries ave given by Mr.. Goschen.
He proves that since Prince Bsmarck's
abandonment of free trade Germany has in
creased its iron exports from 992, 900 tons to
100000 tons, and its exports Of steel from
New-York tribune., 1885-07-07

e2. 900 tons to 100000 tons. The outpnt OF
coal there has quadrupled since 1861, while In
England it has merely doubled. "he increase
in the production of cotton goods has also been
relatively much larger in both Germany and the
United States than it has been in England.
These comparisons in che iron, coal and cotton
industries demonstrate that owing to the COM
petition of foreign countries the bulk OF bti1isl,
trade is relatively declining upon the broad
basis of the aggregate trade of the world.
Conservative journals like The Morning Post
of London are making urgent appeals Tor as
ordinations between British colonies ana tariH
countries in the interest of what they term falr
trade. British North America and Australia
already produce large supplies OF gram. lheSe
supplies may be Indefinitely increased by open
ing the United Kingdom, the largest market Ill
the world for foreign grain, to these cpionies
ON more favorable terms than are 0iiered 10
Russia and the United States. A comparatively
small duty on Russian and American bread
stuffs would give the cOlOnists substantial ad-
vantage. in return for which they would be
willing to repeal their high tariffs and open
their markets to British goods. This IS the
argument earnestly put forward by this old
fashioned Tory organ, aud the new Prime Min
lister is known to be favOrably impressed with
it. The ulteror purpose of the Fair Traders Is
nomnally to solve ithc free trade problem by
means of commercial federation OF England
and its colonies, whereby foreign tariffs woald
lie lowered all around. But in the course OF
their argument they admit that free trade has
placed England at the mercy of its commercial
rivals. that the decadencc of its trade is only
question of time, and that the chcapening OF the
loaf il of no advantage if the wOrkingman can
not earn the money to pay for it.

course, in order to deal the best hands to Demo.
Gratis we must either have marked pack, deal
them face up, or practise sleight-of-hand, ana
to either course there may be objections by Mug

the game. In that case we presume the plain
spoken Spencer would say, @Very well. II you
"don't like the way we play this game you can
"set back your chairs and we'll play it without

in the Hrigour of the game" Yet after all he
does not differ from President Cleveland ana
Grand Sachem Dugro. They are all at one
upon the cardinal doctrine of the party, which
il that the best hands shall be dealt to Demo-
Gratis and the charming thing about the Tam
many celebration is that it brings out SO clearly
the prevailing harmony of views on this SUD-
ject The only suggestion of the shadow OF
shade of difference was Occasioned by the
Presidents unfortunate use OF the word al

planned that. For if there is anything In this
world the contemplation of which soothes and
delights us, it is the love and affection which
Tammany Hall and the President bear each
other.
