CUSTOMS DUTIES DO NOT IN.

Senator Brown, Of Georgia, in a re-

ternal revenue taxes said that an 'emi-

producer, we take the duty on pig iron
In 1868 the duty on pig iron was 50
per ton, ana the average price of the
imports that fiscal year was Sl4 OF per

50 per ton, aud the importations cost an
average Of ST. 60 Thus it will be
seen that with duty of So per ton the
average cost to the consumer would be
$50 o., while, with duty of 50 per
ton, the average cost to the consumer
was S2l 90. This shows that while the
duty or tax, as that eminent revenue re-

prices, 50 that after paying the duty no
natter what it may be, he is enabled to
import into our market and compete
with our home manufacturer.
This is often done at a serious loss to
the foreign manufacturer, and continued
if possible, until the competitor of the
home manufacturer is broken down, and
then the foreigner raises prices to make
up for the losses previously eutailel.
