High Tariff Taxes and Wages.

We present on our sixth page this
week very carefully and intelligently
prepared review of the wages paid to
labor in the leading Industrial countries
of Europe. It has been prepared by
our own correspondent whose oppor-
tuni,es fr correct presentation of
the question are unsurpassed, aud ii is
so compleate as TO leave nothing want
ing to give clear and concise view of
the exact relation of high tariff taxes
to wages.
1t is startling fact that the wages
paid iu free trade England are higher
than the wages paid for the same la
Dor in the highly protected countries
of Europe. Theorize as we may on
high tariff taxes as necessity to in
crease wages of labor, the fact remains
that the highest protective countries
abroad pay the least, while the one
great free trade raticn pays the high
est.
The same stubborn fact is taught in
our own country. We have had con-

From the Cradle to the Grave.

To protect the ru bber trust, we levy
a tax upon Baby when he buys rub
Der rattle. Should the blue-eyed, yel-
low-haired German children come in
at the Custom House with more toys
than the law allows, the eagle-eyed In
spector contiseates the l,t. What mat
ters it, though the toddling pilgrims
set up wall for their property? What
would become of the American man
ufacturerer of toys if these hardy,
though youthful defrauders ofcustoms
were permitted to land with dolls and
Noah's arks made by the pauper labor
of little Teutons? Would not dead
ly blow be struck at the American sys-
tenn, viz, the device of keeping cheap
goods out to make native goods high
priced?
We have tariff tax on Christian
ity. Bibles are subject to duty.
The Bible is good book, filled with
many high moral maxims and rules
for the guidance of human conduct.
We are generally agreed that it has
done some good in the world. But in
the getting of it 60 the Sinner we have
interposed an artificial barrier, and in
creased the price of bibles-a sort of
tax on Salvation. Christian protect
ionists, OCCUPYING seats In front pews,
rather than surrender any part of the
protective system, are willing that
some body's Immortality shall be
jeopardized.
Did you ever see monkeys being fed
at a menagerie? A pan is set befor e
them, and there is enough for each one
who is satisfied with his own. But
every monkey makes a grab for the
food in his neighbnr's pan. One or
two get more than the others, but a
great deal is lost in the scramble.
These monkeys are typical protect
ionists. Protection is simply this
monkey theory applied to communities
of men; and the theory ignores the
fact that the community is poorer by
that which is lost In the scramble.
See how we protect our iron and
steel men. BY increasing the cost OF
everything into which iron and steel
enter, from locomotive or steamboat
to razor in a barher-shop-a tax on .
clean shave, tax on ride across the
country, tax on sail up the river.

tinuation of high war taxes ever since
the war; we have maintained the high,
est so-calied protective duties; we have
reduced practically no taxes on the
necessaries of life, and with this high
est protection ever known in time 81
peace, and the highest taxes on the
| chief necessaries of life consumed hy
labor, there has been a steady decline
in the wages of labor during the La st
| decade.
Ihese grave facts do not prove that
high taxes produce low wages, nor do
they prove that protection is not u
| necessity to fair wages in this country;
but they do prove most conclusively
that high war taxes and high wages
are not inseparable, and that it is pos
sibie to prostitute excessive protection
to the reduction of wages.
1t is openly prostituted to enhance
the cost of the necessaries of life by
breeding extortionate trusts and conf
bines, and it has made combinations
possible to import free-trade cheap La
boz. 10 take the place of what should
be the highly protected labor of the
country; but 1t is the abuse, the pros
ttution of protection, and not the pro-
tective system, that produces these
evils.
The plain truth is that American la
Dor does not receive the full measure,
nor nearly the full measure, of the pro-
lection the laws give il. We have man
ufacturers whose labor is not exceeding
% per cent of the cost of their product,
and they are protected nearly double
that amount ty tariff taxes, while
they have be II steadily reducing wa
Ses during the last few years. This is
of the protective policy of the country.
While judicious protection is a me-
cessity to maintain wag, in this coun-
try, another great necessity is the
cheapening of our domestic products
and the enlargement of our markets
What American labor now needs is,
first, protection against the cheap
LABOR of Europe. and next, tree raw
materials to enable oura raworkingmen
to cheaper their products without re-
ducing wages; to enlarge consumption
and markets and thus to increase the
demand tor labor.
Without following protection to la
Dor with every possible means of COM
peting with other labor, the protection
often fails to benefit the workingman.
Our markets are now glutted with
some American products which can
not be consumed at home and cannot
be sold abroad because of their excess
i've cost; but in many channels Of in
dustry, aided by free raw materials.
we are now not only supplying our
home markets entirely, but we export
largely to foreign countries. A point
ed illustration of this is the shoe and
leather trade. Free hides have given
American labor the entire shoe and
leather market of the country, and
they never Were so cheap to cofisumers.
While judicious protection by tariff
laws IS necessity to good wages, ex-
cessiye tariff taxes only Cypress labor
by giving workingmen high taxes and
low wages. Such is the lesson of
Europe; such is the lesson of America.

DULUTH'S GROWTH.

A Marvellous Testimonial to the Great Re-
sources of the Northwest.
Duluth is situated at the far western
end of Lake Superior. where that great
body of fresh water juts an arm in be-
tween Minnesota and Wisconsin. It
possesses, therefore, an unbroken water
communication with the Atlantic Ocean
from point 200 miles nearer the vast
western granary than any other city.
In 1869 there were dozen houses on
the present site of the place and per-
haps 100 people. In 1880 the popula-
ton had increased to $40; one year
later it was 1880; another twelvemonth
brought it to $4,000, and now no en-
thusiastic Duluthian will accept less
than 80, 600 inhabitants. The story of
its strides reads like repetition of the
experience of Chicago when the phe-
nomenal development of the trade of
that city was awakening the envy of
near rivals and exciting the incredulity
of those who did not guess the possi-
bilities of the boundless West. When
Duluth built its first grain elevator it
ing, but to-day It's score of elevators
will accommodate 12,000,0 900 bushels of
wheat, and so eager is the demand for
room that even now, when the snow is
flying and the air near the zero point.
new elevators are being pressed to
completion to hold the grain in the
h~adreds of cars which stand ready to
be unloaded.
This proof that another great city is
soon to be added to the magnificent
galaxy that already studs the Missis-
sippi valley will be renewed source of
pride to the American people. 1t is a
new proof of the necessity for revising
the impressions many people have OF
that vast area which stretches between
the upper Mississippi river and the
Rocky Mountains. The biographies
studied by men who have hardly begun
to grow gray pictured this region as an
arid desert, without forests or rainfall
and unfit for civilized lite. And yet it
is the productiveness of this neighbor-
hood, its millions of bushels of wheat
and corn and its countless herds. sup
ported by boundless pastures. that has
built up the great cities of the North
west and is constantly demanding
more and larger marts for the exchange
of its products. The description of the
cities of that region which have sprung
up apparently by magic, and of the
transformation of sterile plains into
fertile gardens and farms. as if an en-
chanted wand had passed over them,
has been given often, and as often it
was supposed that the limit had been
reached But the marvellous growth
of Duluth proves that there are still
undeveloped possibilities in that coun-
try, the disclosure of which will tax the
energies and add to the achievements
and future prosperity of the American
nation. Philadelphia Press.

Our Tariff for Foreigners.


Our AZ per cent. tariff Is for the bene-
| fit of two classes-the American pro-
ducers of the tariffed goods and for
eign purchasers of the same or like
goods. 1t taxes American purchasers
for the benefit OF these two classes
That is the meaning of the fine phrase.
'.the American market for A americans
American purchasers constitute the
American market. They are bled for
| the benefit of home proteges and for
eign purchasers.
Under our system our proteges sell
their goods cheaper to foreigners than
TO their own countrymen. To what
| extent they do this it would be difficult
to ascertain, but instances In which
they do are known. ard for the known
instances general fact may fairly be
inferred.
For years the American copper mln-
ing companies sold copper cheaper to
foreigners than to Americans, aud the
difference was about equal to our tariff
tax on bar and ingot copper--about A
cents per pourd. The proof of this,
found in the known fact of foreign sales
and of the contract prices at home and
abroad, was incontestalle. The COM
paDies have not denied it and they
have admitted it in court.
On the 9th of August last the firm or
A. J. Lander g. Brother stated ia let
ter that ''our shovels bought for our
Eagle Pass store costs us about Sc per
dozen, exclusive Of freight; our sho vels
of the same class and material cost us
laid down in Piedras Negras So OIL per
Dozen" AS these were reported to be
Ames shovels the Ames corporation
made qualified denial OF the state
ment. Thereupon Lander & Brother
made affidavit TO the truth Of the
statement and also to the truth Of
similar statement RESI- Getting saws and
opal agate ironware. The Eagle Pasa
stare of this firm is in Texas; their
Piedras store is in Mexico. Their afri-
davit is to the effect that they had 10
pay more for goods for their Texas
store than for the same kind and quail
ity Of goods Cor their Mexican store.
Other similar cases have come tn
light. The natural Inference is that
is common practice to sell American
tarif-protected goods cheaper for ex-
port than for home use. the Inanufac-
turers availing the mselves of the tariff
tax to extort high prices from their
own countrymen.
And yet American purchasers are
told that 1t is matter of fpatriotic duty
TO submit to this kind OF imposition
alton of a system which alone makes
such imposition possible.
If the manufacturers OF sbovels can
afford to sell them to a dealer at $29l
per dozen for sale in Mexico, they can
afford to sell the same dealer at the
same price for sale in Texas, aud when
they charge him Sc per dozen for shov-
els for sale in Texas they simply prac-
tice extnrtion under the shelter 0f the
tariff. When they make 80 much low
er prices for goods to be sold abroad
they confess that they do not need SO
much tariff protection as is given them.
And vet they try TO make US believe
that hey will have to close their doors
II the tariff is at oil reduced.
The Times takes occasion TO renew
its. suggestion that those who demand
projection shc.,id be require1 to show
their hooks and prove that they need
