OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES.
Big Gain Made by the Manufacture of Tin
Plate

Plate.
In the matter OF swapping American
grain for British tin plate the profits are
divided as follows:
|. Profits upon tin plate manufacture
2. Profits upon tin plate transportation,
s. Profits upon carrying wheat over
seas
All made by Englishmen.
a. Profits upon raising wheat
Made by Americans.
Thus of four possible profits in this
transaction the Englishman bags three and
the American gets but one hut while the
Englishman has actually a monopoly in
tin plate manufacture and practically a
monopoly in ocean carriage, the American
wheat grower in the British markets comes
into sharp competition with the wheat
growers Of the world and he is completely
at the mercy of the market What pro-
tectionists desire is that the TIM plate
consumed by our people shall be manufac-
tured here. and then the account will stand
thus:
l. Profits upon tin plate manufacture.
2. Profits upon raising wheat.
3. Profits upon land carriage.
All made 10y Americans
And meantime the greater number Of
the persons engaged in making tin plate,
the larger will be the home demand for
domestic food.
