Mcklnieys Speech.

In opening the debate on the tariff
bill ia the national House last week. Mr.
Nj kinley Of Ohio said that under the *.
listing statute any citizen OF the United
States could import au article. pay the
duty on II, make IL into a complete pro
duct and export It, and the government
refunded 30 per cent. Of the duty paid on
the raw material. The committee now
recommended the government should re-
tain only one per cent instead Of ~ per
cent. This gave the people Of the Unit
ed Statas practically free raw xtefiai
for export trade. and this provision com
pletely disposed Of the argument that
II the manufacturers only had free raw
material they could compete in the mar.
bets Of the word. II applied to every
thing.
1t is asserted by the minority that the
bill would not reduce the revenues Of
the govel nment, and on the contrary IL
would increase revenues. The instsi |
duties were increased TO fair protect
i've point, that instant Importation was
diminished. If the ill became a law,
the revenues Of the government would
be diminished from fifty millions 10 six
tv millions. Every relief which could be
afforded the agricultural interests Of the
country by the tariff had been recommend
sd The majority had advanced the duty
all along tn. lines. II the gentlemen
reflected upon the difference ia the price
of labor here and abroad ia the produc-
ton OF wheat it would perceive now
near we were to the danger line. so far
even as our home market vas concerned
| The farmers had come to appreciate
that the time was already here when the
American sgriculturist must sell his pro
ducts in the markets of the world in
competition with wheat produced by the
low priced labor of other countries
Then the care must hereafter be To pre-.
serve our own market, for he must be
driven from foreign ones, unless by re-
ducing the cost of production he could
compete with the unequal condition
Under the duties fixed by the bill annual
imports Of S25 900 600 Of agricultural
products would be supplied by the peo-
pie Of the United States by the Ameri-
can farmer rather than by the Canadian
farmer and this S25 900, 600 distributed
among the farmers would relieve some
Of the depression prevailing and give
them confidence. courage and increased
ability to raise the mortgages upon their
farms. Applause.
During twelve years of reciprocity
with Canada the United States bough,
much more than she sold. Foreign mar
kets were as accessible under the bill a.
they would be under absolute free trade.
