M'KiNLEY's BILL DID THIS.

Democratic lies about the Mckinley
bill having raised the tariff upon every
article IN the schedule are palpable.
Still il may not be amiss TO present IN n
nut shell some facts about the opera
ton of the new tariff.
The Mckinley bill has increased the
duties on about lis articles.
Reduced the duties on about 100
articles.
And left il unchanged on about 249
articles.
II has increased our foreign CON-
meree On eleven months), t.4,16S, 639.
IL mas increased our free imports,
sll2. 3,osl.
Il. has made the percentage Of free
imports 55.75.
1t has increased free imports over the
last tariff 22.4s.
IL has reduced the duties per capita
from $3.50 10 s3.o7.
1t has reduced the total revenue tar
III taxes IN twelve months Sal 1896, 425.
IL has increased the cost of no neces.
xties but has reduced she cost of many.
1t has stimulated business, and made
people busier and earnings surer and
larger.

ONE GRATIFYING RESULT.

Many intelligent men, studIous men,
shut their eyes to the superior value Of
home market, and do not seem to
understand why there should be such Il
strong lnsistence by other equally intel
ligent men that there should be levied
a protective duty upon articles which
can be produced in tins country by our
own people. That the politicians seeking
office-men whose interests are more
concerned in the emoluments and
honors OF official position than in sub
stantial and productive industry
should run after popularity now and
again, is not surprising, but that the
actual producers of the country, VINO
include all but the office-holders anu
office-seekers. will be misled by the
sophistry against protection ia not to be
believed. Theorists paint a rosy pic
ture rs to what the future under free
trade will be, but they overlook the
view. Is it possible to better the COM
mercial and industrial condition of this
country by adopting tariff for reve-
nue. only, or free trade policy? IS a
question that directs immediate notice
to the reasons why prosperity smiles on
every State in the Union. With the
tired policy we have large measure of
contentment, what with the untried
measure? 1t might be worse; it surely
could be no better. For with the
cheap products of England in our
markets the home products must
60 down in price, and the
products down in price, wages
would seek the same level. This result
is so palp.ble that 1t would seem
there can be no difficulty in under
standing it. Yet there are men as
above stated, who will close their eyes
and assert that the tariff is q tax, and
being tax, it should be abolished and
high wages with il. The owner of real
estate pays a tax for the use and occu-
patton of his land and for the protec-
ton insured in the safety of home and
family. The tariff is tax. paid by the
foreign manufacturer for the use and
occupation of our markets and for the
profit insured by the sale of his goods.
There is no hardship to the consumer
for the foreign manufacturer is com
PEELED to sell his pauper produced good:
in competition with the products OF
free and well paid labor. One crafty
ing result OF the campaign now
on IN this district will surely
be a genral grasp of the merits of pro
lection by all classes of our people.

MARKET CONDITIONS.

In noting the condition of themarkets

ssys: Present holders of stocks are. it

occasional slight advances; but without

and there cannot be good buying with
out good buyers, neither of which of
sufficient magnitude exist at present.
There are plenty Of Influential opera
