an increase of 10 cents per ton from May /.

Labor and the Tariff.

Germany has protective tariff,
and yet the wages Of labor in Ger
many are lower than they are in Eng
land, which is free trade country.
Germany takes from it's farms and
workshops 100000 men and keeps
them in standing army, thus max
ing room for that number of other
men in its industries. England has
a standing army of but 134,000 men.
In Germany the population is about
218 to the square mile; in England,
it is AS to the square mile. England,
therefore, has more than double Ger
many in the number of working peo-
pie to the square mile. Hence it is
clear that Germany ought to pay
much higher wages than England,
but it doesn't Notwithstanding it's
protective tariff.
The United States has an average
population of about 20 persons to
the square mile, and in the thickly
settled States the average to the
square mile is not over 100. Because
Of the comparative sparseness of the
population the wages of labor are
higher here than in the more densely
populated countries of Europe
Labor has always had better remu-
neration under low as as well as high
tariffs here than it could get in thick
ly settled countries. These things
show that the tariff has no effect on
the wages of labor.
It is not conceded that protec.
tive tariff benefits the employer of
labor, but the workingman has long
since discovered that he gets no share
of such benefit if any accrues to his
employer. He is obliged to pay
tariff taxes on everything that he
consumes, but his pay is not increasd
by the tariff on the special product
of his labor, nor is he more steadily
employed on that account. On the
contrary a high tariff limits the mar
ket for his products to home con-
sumption and about six months
work in the year is sufficient to sup
ply the home market. Year in and
year out his earnings are therefore
less than that of the European work
ingman employed in the same in
dustry.
