THE CARPET TRADE AND THE TARIFF
MISLEADING STATEMENTS BY THE DEMOCRATIC
PRESS ABOUT THE RECENT SALE.

MISLEADING STATEMENTS BY THE DEMOCRATIC
PRESS ABOUT THE RECENT SALE.
II Is curious fatality of the Democratic party press
that IL sezes upon single incident and by determined
perversion uses it TO prove statements precisely the
opposite of the result of the general plan OF which IL
forms a part. Its treatment of the influence OF the
Mckinley law on tie tinplae industry is an instance OF
this and il has had still conspicuous Illustration
I'm its reference 10 the great eucon sale of carpets by
the Alexander Smith Sons Carpet Company, recently
held in this city, Few people have any idea OF the
magnitude to which the carpet industry has grown IN
tlls country under the fostering care of protective
tariff The company just named has attained such
growth that the accumulation recently thrown upon
the market was only in proportion to the magnitude OF
its product and it now appears that this was but
clearance sale preparatory to the adjustment OF us
affairs TO the business of the opening year. Great
stress has been laid upon the Mckinley law the cause
of the accumulation while the increase of product has
been passed by UNDECIDED, and the great readiness OF
the country to absorb it all has not been even referred
to- But now that fuller light is being she'd 1t appears
that this same company opens its business Tor 1877
with new scale OF prices varying from III 10 10 PEI
cent less than those in existence before the MCKINNEY
Act took effect. Whence then all this hue ana CRY
about the increased duties wool, or the burdens oi
the consumer will buy carpets cheaper than ever
before-cheaper even than under the comparatively
free trade era before the war;
In 1861 the price of English tapestry carpets was W
cents per yard. The nine-wire tapestry made by the
Alexander Smith Sons Carpet Company Is the e9nlxa
lent of the English article, and prior 10 the
act the price Of that quality was ~ IL ana IS nov

The MAYOR SUSTAINs MR.. KENNY.

A meeting Of the Board Of City Record was held
Yesterday Mayor Grant presiding and Corporation
Counsel Clark and Commissioner Glroy beng present.
The minutes of the meeting of November q, at wmch
the contract for printing "The City Record was
awarded TO Martin b. Brown were read by supervisor
Kenny Referring TO this contract Mayor Grant sac
at was my opinion, before started for Europe that
II would be to the advantage of the city to MAKE an
agreement with Martin b. Brown to print and distribute
The City Record during the year 1882 on the Terms
OF his present contract. We had tried for two years
nsso and s9Ol by publicly advertising, to get other
bidders for the work. but appeared and 1t seemed
TO me that as our experience had proved similar TO That
of our predecessors proper to follow the course
adopted by them. My opinion was made known by me
to supervisor Kenny before Mr. Brown made his PROPOSE
ton publicly at the meeting Of November D. and II was
expressed by me at that meeting. am the more con-
WINGED of the correctness Of view by the letters rom
printers and the Examiner of Printing In the f1nance
Department which have just heard read. approve
the action taken by my colleagues and by supervisor
Kenny"
The minutes were then approved without dissent.
Mr. Grants remarks are pertinent In connection with
The recent application Of william Men, speer, iateiy
his private secretary for judicial process TO restrain
The Board of City Record from fulfilling It's CONTRACT
with Mr. Brown. The suit Of Mr.. speer is awaiting
decision at the hands Of Judge Ingraham of the supreme
Court.
