Mr.. Randall occasionally gets himself
read out Of the Democratic party, but
really he Is a very seryiceable person to
his party, and the reading out ought TO
stop. The platform may favor free trade;
the overwhelming majority of the party
may be for free trade, and free trade may
capture the House caucus evory time.
But there is Mr.. Randall-he never will
consent to free trade, and in any protec-
ZIONIST district his party can make good
use Of him.
To charge that in any respect Mr.. Ran.
dali would 20 further than Mr., Morrison
proposes from the principle Of protection,
would seem absurd. We are under obli-
cation 10 the American Manufacturer for
showing that this very thing has hap
pened. Let Us see how 1t comes. When
Mr.. Morrison proposed to reduce the duty
ON steel rails from 81 ONto SO GOA ton
English rails for America could be bought
for SIS rs a ton. Add $3.50 for freight and
other expenses Of transportation, and, Mr..
Morison's SO 90 duty, and the cost in
New York Of q ton Of English steel rails
would have been $s7. 40. AT that time
the cost Of American rails at the works
was sS4 90, giving the American manuiac-
turer and workman an advantage over
their English competitors Of g 40 pc, ton.
Under Mr.. Randall's bill the duty on q
ton Of steel rails Is put at $lS 90. The
cost in the English market Is $lb 70. Add
carrying expenses, $3.50, and under the
Randall schedule the ton Of English rails
delivered in New York will cost s3l 20,
American rails atthO works are selling al
$500, giving the English manufacturer
and workman an advantage In New York
over their American CompstitorS in the
American market Of about 81 90 per ton.
From an American point Of view the
difference III favor Of the Morrison bill at
al the time II was concerted a. compared
with the Randall bill at the time Il wNs
presented, 10 about " 40 on q ton Of steel
rails.
