TIE MARKETS or THE WORLD.

"Tho markets of the worldo is favorite
phrase with Democratic orators in this canvass.
They use it whenever they attempt to explain
the Presidents message and the Mills bill. The
object of Democratic policy they assert is to
cheaper raw materials and the processes Of
production, and thereby to enable American
manufacturers to obtain control of the markets
of the world. When the objection is raised
that American goods and the labor that goes
into them will be largely displaced by increased
importations from England and Europe and
that wages will be reduced and large classes of
workmen be deprived of employment, they
reply: Losses in the home market will be
amply compensated for by gains abroad
American workmen will have more employ
ment and higher wages when the markets OF
the world are opened to the products ot their
lab or"
1t never seems to occur to these expansive
orators that foreign countries may actively
interfere with this promising arrangement
England has had for fifty years free raw ma
terials, low wages and the cheapest possible
processes of production but the markets Of
the world have been closed against it. The
nations of the continent prefer to protect their
own industries. Germany and France expert
mented with free trade for a season. and then
reverted TO protection. Russia, Italy, Spain,
Austra--a the leading countries of Europe
are in a tariff league which discrminates
against foreign products and manufactures.
The most important English Colonies, with one
or two exceptions. have protected their own
interests and raised high tariff barriers against
impOrtationS from the mother country. The
markets of the world have not been opened to
England under free trade. What reason, then,
is there for believing that those markets will
not be closed against the United States after
the enactment Of the Mills bill
The markets OF the world have never been
thrown open by act Of the British Parliament
nor by the publication Of Golden Club essays.
The markets of the world will not be opened
by Executive proclamation nor by Democratic
stump speeches. Other nations which prefer TO
protect rather than to sacrifice their own in
dustries can persist in taxing imports heavily
and American products will be shut out. The
only market to which the United States will
be at liberty under free trade to export its

CRAB-PROGRESS.

| "You predicted disaster, as a result OF Demo-
cratic victory, and it has not come" Democrats
say. Good let us all be joyful Still. it is
in order to remark that no sane man expected
really grave results from a change of Admins
traton without change of National policy,
and the Democrats have not yet been able to
change the Nations industrial policy. Re-
publican tariff still defends industries, in spite
of much impairment of its force by unfriendly
rulings of the Treasury.
"But look at the Nations prosperity; never
greater" Well, it would be pleasing to be-
lieye all that But this is a time when people
want facts rather than mental bon-bons. 1t is
therefore appropriate to observe that the coun-
try is not as prosperous as it was five years ago,
that its marvellous increase in production Of
wealth has in some way been arrested. and that
while the Spectators thrive, the producers have
some cause to complain
The country has recently finished the dis
tributon of the crops Of last fall, so that it is
possible to determine with some accuracy what
has been produced and consumed within the
last year. OF corn the yield was / A %, 100000
bushels. against ,617 100000 bushels in
1882 of wheat 4 So 900, 900 bushels, against
5O4 .OOO, 600 bushels in 1882 Of oats 659,-
900. 600 against 4S8 900, 900, and of potatoes
1874 900, 900 against II 100000 bushels; of
cotton 3,4O6 OOO,O pounds against 81 3d.
600, 900 pounds, and Of wool 265, 100000
against 80, OOO 900 pounds. Now these facts
do not show any development in agriculture
Production has largely increased in oats only ;
the yield of cotton is smaller in proportion to
population than it was five years ago, and every
other crop has absolutely decreased
The great branches Of manufacture may also
be considered in connection with the yield Of
wool, which shows decline in wool production.
Imports have increased, but also stocks in ware
house. so that the consumption in manufacture
during the last twelve months, il as large as
in 1928, is certainly not as large in pro-

GERMAN IND FRENCH PROTECTION.


Under free trade for many years Germany
and France suffered more than England The
reasons are not now pertinent the fact is
enough that losses and disasters resulting from
free trade drove both Germany and France tC
try protection n few years ago. When that
change was made the wages in both countries
were far below the English standard.
A few years of protection have so raised
wages in Germany and France that the British
official reports are now arraying long columns
of figures to determine whether, in this Of
that important industry, Germany or France
any longer has the advantage of cheaper labor
To Americans il makes no difference whether
protection has YET lifted wages so far in either
country or not. The only fact of consequence
to us is that it has lifted wages in Germany
and in France, and is lifting them constantly
Thus the statistics of German companies own
ing iron and steel works show that in January,
1887, ,695 workers were employed in 200
works, but in January, 1888, there were
147 ,O5l employed, an increase of GO per cent.
But the average Of wages for all classes in these
$50 establishments was $500 marks in jan
uary, 1887, and in January, 1888, the average
of wages had risen to 69.67 marks per month.
Thus an increase of III per cen: was recorded
in single year, with large increase in the
number of hands In four years after the pro-
tective tariff was adopted it added 1000 to
the number Of workers in German iron and
steel industries. and increased their wages II A
per cent. This fact was officially admitted by
the British Charge dAffaires in Germany, him
self Free Trader. So in France the official
report of our State Department in 1884 said ::
"The cost of labor has remained stationary in
England, while it has advanced in France 20
to 2 . per cent"
The full effect of protection is not attained
in month, or in year. In new establish
ments it takes time for the workers to secure
an advance in wages after they have been en-
ployed, for the new establishments have first
to secure permanent success, SO that they feel
that an advance can be safely conceded. That
is work of years. But prior to that the new
establishments have to be created, affording
employment to the surplus or unemployed labor
of country 1t takes years to create costly
works. But prior to that, again, the condition
of markets which convinces capital that it is
safe to create new establishments has first to
be attained and that also takes time. Pro-
lection is a cumulative process. Each year
after it begins to realize its beneficial results
those results become greater and clearer.

the same rate for his other exhausting labors
in the same cause, his total fees will amount to

The advance in, the price of bread which
was orde4ed by the Bakers Union in this city
yesterday has seemed inevitable ever since
the speculation in wheat sent up the price of
that staple and raised the value of flour.
This increase in the cost of bread will fall with
special weight upon the poor, who, having
Scant facilities for baking at home and being
unable to buy -four except in small quantities
and at high rates, depend upon the small
bakeries and corner groceries for this article
of food. The wickedness of speculation in the

The strike of street-car employees in Chicago
has been settled by mutual concessions. How
much better it would have been, from every
point Of view, Il arbitration had been avaied
of before the strike was begun. The result
reached now could readily have been arrived
at then without friction or difficulty. As ii
is Chicago has been, in large part without
street-cars for week and half, roting has
occurred, and the peace of the community has
been seriously menaced. The men now get an
increase of 6 per cent in wagcs-less than they
demanded; all the strikers are to be re-em-
ployed, and the new men engaged in the mean
time are to be retained and placed on the
extra list" 1t is to be hoped that faith will
be resolutely kept with these new men. They
have risked their lives by coming to the COM
panys help in its time Of need, and the COM
pany is in honor bound to stand by them to the
