The Duties Reduced.

The passage of the tariff bill by de-
cisive majority in the senate as related
in last evenings REFLECTOR and its
approach to becoming law (only need
ing the presidents signature) makes
little analysis of It's provisions of in
terest. 1t will be piece of news to
many who have believed the democratic
bowls regarding the high percentages
of tariff in the Mckinley bill to know
that it reduces the average tariff by a
considerable amount.
The democratic and free-trade press
is apt to diet too much on Mrs. Leases
oratiOns and consider the tariff q mat
ter of lurid rhetoric instead of a lump
Of hard cold fact.
Let us see what the Mckinley bill
does.
Is it reducer of the tariff?
The average of tariff duty under the
bill of 1888, now in force, is 80 per cent.
The bin just passed reduces it to p per
cent. The Mills bill would have re-
duced it to but 2S9 per cent. The bill
just passed does not increase the num-
Der of dutiable articles; it greatly les
sens the number. 1t does not decrease
the size of the free list, it greatly en-
larges it. 1t adds to the free list arti-
Giles which last year were imported to
the value of 500, 1913 900 and on which
duty of $6,936, 536 was paid. 1t
makes nearly so per cent in value of
all imports to the United States
free of duty. That is to say, taking
last years record as basis OF estimate,
it will admit free goods to the value of
1885,, 40, against goods to the value
of 1915, 624, 6S7, on which duties rang
ing through various degrees will be col
lected. 1t gives the largest measure
of commercial freedom now granted by
any tariff act passed in this country.
The famous ''lOw tariff act' CT 1916
admitted but II per cent of free i'm
ports; the curious Mills bill provided
for barely 40 per cent. The Mckinley
bill allows nearly half of all the i'm
ports Of the country to come in duty
free.
Something near to $4,000, 900 of an
nual tariff duties are RENTED by the
new bill. The Mills bill transferred to
the free list articles of the value of
SO, 100000, or a trifle less; the new
bill transfers. articles to the value of
nearly S110,00O,O00. The new bill
makes low grade sugars free and high
grade sugars but slightly dutiable. The
Mills bill would not have made sugar a
cent pound cheaper to the consumer.
The new bill reduces the duties on most
forms Of iron and steel, and makes
binding Irvine nearly free of duty. 1t
weak industries and with
draws a measure of protection from
strong ones. 1t is the bill which the
people demanded in 1888, and of which
they will express approval in 1892.
These are the facts and our excited
democratic brethren are welcome to
make the most of them. 1t is a meas
ure of which the republican party can
well be proud.

Some of the democratic papers are
gleeful because the republican papers
are boycotted by the peoples party. If
those same democratic papers could
only get some of the same kind of boy
colt the republicans have there would
be less of their sheets passing into the

The stock market became exceedingly dull
again to-day, and the expected closer working
of the money market caused a dropping tend
ency in prices after the first BALI hour, and this
with a lower opening resulted in leaving most
of the stocks a little lower for the day. A few
specialties developed marked weakn ess but the

There is considerable dissatisfaction with the
