IMPORTS AND PROTECTION.
A Prntectionist FallacY Completely
.nootrad fDt1r

A Protectionist Fallacy Completely
Knocked Out.
The protectiouists delight to point
out that we import more COW per cap
ita than we did thirty years ago, and
they straightway construct the theory
that high tariff promotes Importation.
But in this hasty conclusion they over
look some important considerations
The great improvements in ocean
steamships have lowered freights
enormously in thirty years. In 1850 the
freight on a bushel of wheat from New
York to Liverpool ranged from y to
~ cents a bushel, while last year the
average was slightly Less than 8 cents,
and it is now sometimes as low as 3
cents. Cheaper and quicker transporta-
ton has greatly increased the demand
for foreign goods,
At least twenty Americans travel in
Europe now for one who travelled there
in 1850: and the result Of this increased
travel is that all Europe has become as
IL were vastexposition in which Amer
leans find the things which meet their
tastes. These are bought in Europe in
the first instance; but later orders are
filed by American importers in New
York.
There, too, the more intelligent and
wenlthy class Of our people is far larger
now in proportion To the population
than thirty years ago. Education and
money are factors which tell very
greatly in making a market for large
class Of foreign goods in which artistic
designing and skilled workmanship
have been combined.
Besides all this, the invention Of hun
dreds Of machines and processes has
produced an enormous number Of spe-
cial forms Of manufactures md has
tended in various ways 10 promote inter.
national exchanges.
But this notion that protection in
creases importation is far from being
in harmony with the high tariff faith
as held by Mckinley. In his speech on
his tariff bill in the house Of represent.
atlves last year he said. 'The chief
complaint against this bill comes from
Importers and consgnees here, on the
one hand, and the foreign merchants
and cousiguors abroad, Why do they
complain? Manifestly because in some
way this bin will check their business
here and Increase the business Of our
own manufacturers and producers; 10
win diminish the Importation OF com.
potlng foreign goods, and Increase tha
consumption ot our home made goods

But how is this matter accounted for?
Did the foreigners cheat Us in trade?
Bv no means. It takes two to make

our foreign trade were agreed upOu by
two shrewd merchants who know their

tainIv not being behind the foreigner
in shrewduess and business Judgment
How. then is this great balance Of
trade against US to be accounted for?
The explanation is simple after all
Foreigners. especially the English. own
vast properties in America in the form
of government. state and corporation
bonds. The operations Of the British
syndicates last year we're famous, and
it is well known that many mining
properties, many brewerIes and other
manufacturing establishments have
fallen into the hands of foreign buyers.
= Now the larger part Of these millions,
not vet accounted for, vent to pay the
dividends on these foreign Investments.
Another large part went to pay freight
to the owners Of the foreign ships that
carried away our our goods. for only a
ridicuIously small proportion OF our
products went out in American bot
toms Besides these two ways for ab-
sOrbing the excess. there is a third which
deserve mention. Thousands Of Amer
leans go to Europe every year. These
travellers take with them drafts which
are cashed at banks in Europe, and our
goods must 90 to Europe to satisfy
the holders OF these drafts finally.
The export of coin in 1889 was even
greater than in 1890; and already in the
present year we have sent out between
sixty and seventy millions in gold, not
withstanding the higher protection
given by the Mckinley law. With the
increasing numberOt imported indus
tries which the Mckinley law has
forced to come here. while their own
ers live on the other side and take their
profit there. will not the export of coin
be greater in the future than ever be-
fore? Protection evidently fails to
keep moneyin the country.

AN EXCEPTION.

Massachusetts should. at Least. Be Ex-
cepted when It IL Declared That PrOtec-
tion Increases Wages.
All orthodox protactiouists claim that
protection makes wages high and keeps
them high. This specious plea is put
forth as the main argument for protec-
ton, all the McNinIeyits asserting that
protection is a question Of wages.
r. it be true that protection raises
wages and maintains them at a high
level. there ought to be abundant evil
dence Of that fact in d great manufact-
uring state like Massachusetts. But
in that state. with its thousands Of
factories Of all kinds, wages have actu-
ally been lower under the high tariff
period since 1880 than they were at
that time Proofs Of this fact can
be found in the official report Of Carroll
D. Wright for 1853, he being then labor
commissioner for the state Of Massa-
chusetts. Mr.. Wright has for some
years been in charge Of the United
States bureau Of labor statistics. and
in that capacity he has issued several
volumes Of statistics which are everv-
where recognized as entirely horest
and impartial. Republicans and demo-
Gratis alike accept the figures gathered
by him rs being the most accurate that
are in reach. His work as labor statis.
tician Of Massachusetts, may therefore,
be accepted rs equally trustworthy
In Mr.. WrighJs report for 1883 he
gives the following figures as the week.
