Some New "HeKIniey yPrIce."-puotatIons
From Trade Papers to show the Effects of
the New Tariff Law-Now Let Mckinley
Smile, and Let the People Say What They
i Think.
The Republican Congress onal Com.
mittee has flooded the country with a
campaign document which contains
among many other rash statements, the
following astounding assertions:
That all this Democratic talk about
increased taxation to the people ia
nothing but downright falsehood.
That the consumer will appreciate
the existence OF new tariff law only
by Its results in tho reduction OF his
necessary household expenses"
But brethren, you promised too much;
and the best answer that can be made
to your extrayaglnt promises is to quote
q few cold facts from tho trale papers
as to the rlso in pr ces caused by the
Mckinley bill. These quotati tions shall
be from papers printed a day or two be-
fore and after the Mckinley bill went
into effect
The first is tho New York Dry Goods
Economist, a protective paper, and the
great organ OF the dry good, trade in
this country. Here are a few facts from
its Issue OF October 4, tho last day under
the old Tariff law:
Its columns OF "IIricfs" begins thus:
'The motto OF prices just now-Exccl-
sior!"
A prominent headline is: The Tariff
and Pr ccs--A General Advance all
Along the Line" In tho art Gle which
follows facts are stated as to the ad-
vance in prices, and the opinions OF
prominent merchants are quoted as to
future advances
A member OF one OF the largest i'm
porting houses said: Dress goods are
fully 10 to Ii per cent h gLer. The
advance in vclycs is all the way up to
25 per cent, and so II also on tho low
est grades OF plushe4" Thes4 are tho
goods OF the poorer people;-how about
those for the rich? mo advance In the
finest qualities OF velvets"
Another merchant said: Cotton prints
have risen about 10 per cont Among
the artic os which have been most af-
fected are e nghams VIII ch contain some
silli The price Of those goods has gone
up fully 80 per cent"-tho duty having
been increased, as he says, ~ cents a
yard
Mr., John Clatln, OF very prom nent
Republican firm says; "Woollens will
advance about 10 per cent, at least tom
porar'ly."
Evidently the Rrpubl can committee

Mr. McKeever said: "All low grades

President IIarr son has recently said:
'We are in the en-. oyment OF tho most
perfect system OF government that has
ever been dev sed for the use of men.
We are under fewer restraints, tue indi-
yidual faculties and liberties have a
wider range hero than in any other
land"
THIS was said less than a week after
he had written his name under the Nc
Kinley bill, a measure VIII ch greatly
increases the restraints OF the people,
curbs individual faculties and liber-
ties" and gives to trusts and monopoies
"a wider range here than in any other
