The wet sportsmen were annoyed as we'll

Wednesday, May 6, 1891.

The Boston Journal, the Now York
Press land other newspapers Of the
high tariff have been growing inn
mensely over the establishment of the
Botany Worsted Mills, Passaic, N. j.,
which is of course due wholly to the
Mckinley bill. An investigation
shows, however, first, that in the
statements of these papers the amount
of capital invested and the number of
hands employed have been exaggerat-
ed about a hundred per cent, and
second, that the mills were construct
ed before the new tariff bill passed,
and while the present law or some
thing like it, was expected, the mills
would have been run all the same il
the bill had not passed; that is, they
would have run if the increased duty
on wool would have permitted it.
Many of the old established mills
have found it hard enough to run
since the duty on foreign woods were
increased and several have given up
trying to run. But we never dou bt-
ed the capacity Of the tariff to build
up particular industry. If the i'm
portation of woolens and worsteds
were absolutely prohibited an increase
production of the goods in this country
would very likely result it would
certainly result unless the increased
prices curtailed the consumption.
The tariff will of course benefit its
beneficiaries. An act of Congress
giving q million of dollars to John
Smith, would of course benefit John
Smith, but it wouldn't be justified by
showing how much happier John
Smith was than before he got his
million or by showing how many
more servants he employed than he
did before. The wholesale price OF
the goods made by the Botany Worst
ed Mills has been increased, as the re-
suit of the Mckinley bill, from IS to
72s cents a yard. Every woman who
buys ten yards of this class of goods
for dress-and this class of goods
would be bought only by people Of
small means-pays Is cents extra in
order to make business profitable to
the Botany Worsted Mill. The ques-
ton is not whether the new tariff law
has benefited the worsted industry,
but whether it has benefited the whole
people.-National Democrat.
