The Dark Lantern Tariff Bin.

4 critical examination OF the bill pre-.
pared by the Democratic members OF the
way and means committee shows tbat 1t Is
long stride toward free trade. The pas.
sage OF such measure, OF which there is
not the slightest prospect, would break
down numbers OF American industries, or
force American employers to offer such
wages as are paid in Europe.
Tie calculations made, which show a
reduction OF revenue under this bill, are
absolutely false, because they are made
upon false basis The basis of reduction
adopted in making these tables was that
there would be no more lmportations under
this tariff than under the one now In ex-
isteIce. A babe in its swaddling clothes
ought to know better than TO suppose there
would not be more imports under tariff
Of 81 per ton on steel rails than there is
under tariff Of Sl7 per ton. The Demo
cratic members Of the committee may not
know this fact II they do not, their intel
ligence does not exceed that OF sucking
infant.
So with all the other articles. rednc-
tiors are made upon woolen goods, upon
cotton goods, upon manufactures OF wood,
Of iron, Of steel. and, in fact, upon almost
everything. 1t is well known that many OF
these articles are imported aud sold IN
competition with American goods even at
the present rates, and that at lower rates
the importations will be doubled, treblel,
Qusdrupled, and 10 some instances be ten
and twenty fold as great.
Last year we lmporte a million tons OF
steel rails with the duty at $l7. S'eel rails
are Manufactured IN SAxony aud Belgium
st Sl4 ton; they are theb transported to
| New York az 81 per ton with d ny ~ Si1,
tLat made them worth So! per ton. nnd
American rails could he manufactured
and sold at about that price. With
| Tie duty al Sll per ton these for
| eien rails can he put. duty Paid, 10 Nav
York nt SO per ton. At that price
| the American factories will close, anA all
the ste el rails needed IN the uui'ed States
will he imported, thus increasing the reve-
nue. more than all the reductions claimed
for this bill.
1t is, however, hardly necessary to dis
! cuss Mr.. Mills's bill except for the purpose
Of letting the people know what these
Democratic gentlemen want IN do. There
| is 10 possible danger Of the bill ever be-
! coming law; 1t will never even pass the
| House Of Representatives in anything like
i,s present form. There are enough rep
resentatives in Congress who are not COM
mitted to the doctrines Of the Golden Club
| TO prevent the passage Of this measure.
