MCKINLEY on the Bill.

A dispatch from Chicago dated the 18th.
says that Mai. Mckinley was in that city
on his way to Michigan to speak. In an
interview with a reporter he said he be-
lieved that his tariff bill would increase
the demand for labor materially. The
tin industry alone would employ fifteen
thousand, and the linen industry also a
large number. The reporter suggested
that his bill is said to be causing the
merchants to mark up their goods
'Presumably, they are marking up goods
upon which duties have been increased.
The goods brougi before the bill went
into effect could hardly be subject TO any
advance. However. if they advance the
price of goods because of advanced duty.
and they will at the same time mark
down prices of goods which have been
put on the free list by the new bill, or
where the duties have been diminished,
it will be a great boon to the consumer,
for the reductions of duty far exceed the
advances. The bill gives freer trade
than any tariff legislation that has been
put upon our statute books for more
than a century. During the first thirty
wears of our history nearly every article
was made dutiable In 1924 less than 6
per cent of our imports was free. i'll 1888
only IS per cent. of our imported goods
was free; in 1912 only 81 per cent. was
free; in 1916, the great revenue tariff
year, only 10 per cent: in 1857 only Is
per cent From 1873 down to 1888, 80
per cent only was free. This bill makes
about one half of them absolutely free.

charter has been issued to the Potomac,
Blackwater and Greenbrier Railroad Company,
an organization OF New York capitalists with a
capital already subscribed of two million dollars,
formed with the pur pose OF building a railroad
from Romney, Hampshire county, along the
south branch of the Potomac to Petersburg
Grant county, thence along the north fork OF
South Branch river to u point Where the coun-
Ties of Pocahontas. Pendleton and Randolph
meet, and thence by three separate lines through
the ore and lumber region, one passing through
Greenbrier and White Sulphur Springs. Three
other branches are also projected.
If this trunk line is built, one of the
branches would naturally be through
Brooks Gap, to intersect the b. & o. at
Broadway, and another line through

Forge, to connect with the q. u ..
