Mckinleyism in Parvo.

Poppy seed oil is not made in this
country. We have no peoples from
which to make it. But this oil has been
much used to make the finer kinds of
paint, having no superior in the higher
grades of colors as drying oil.
Up to October 6 last year this oil was
on the free list and was worth about
sixty cents a gallon; then came McKin-
ley, and put a duty of thirty-two cents a
gallon ON it in behalf of the hnseed oil
trust Now the price of poppy oil is
ninety cents "a gallon, and only one
tenth of the usual quantity is being i'm
ported. 1t is thought that the import
will cease entirely, and attempts will be
made to find some substitute '.good
enough for Americans" And such is

Percentage
of Increase.

Inc most absurd claim ever made by
the protectionists is that the farmer gets
the chief benefit out of the protective
tariff. Thus Robert p. Porter, one of
the chief priests of protection, said a
year ago in an article: "The direct ben
efits he the farmer receives from the
present tariff are far in excess of the
benefits received by any other Glass;
If this preposterous claim were true it
would inevitably follow that farming
would at least keep pace in its develop
ment with other lines of industry. But
the figures just given show that while
manufactures increased 40S per cent. in
thirty-eight years, farming increased
only 252 per cent. If farming were ia
vored more by the tariff than manufac-
turing is the farmers boys would not be
attracted away from the farm in such
great numbers. They would stick to the
more profitable calling; new acres would
be put III cultivation and agriculture
would necessarily grow more rapidly than
other industries. But farming is falling
behind all others, and this has been much
more marked within the past ten years
than during the first two decades of high
protection.
Shipping alone develops more slowly
than farming; and here protection comes
in again The buying of foreign built
ships is absolutely prohibited by our
laws, and the materials of shipbuilding
are highly taxed
Now that Mckinley has raised the
duties on farm products, let the farmers
give thanks for these ''tin whistle duties
and begin TO develop and multiply.

Notwithstanding this showing Nc
k1nley placed much higher rates of duty
upon glassware, and in the conference
committee ne insisted upon these higher
rates. In this effort he was backed By
the manufacturers of Ohio and western
pennsylvania. What was meant by this
was not understood at the time, but the
organization of this trust makes the
matter plain
This combination was born in Mr..
Mckinley's district, and the more active
manufacturers concerned were among
those who contributed large sums to
carry on his campaign last fall. Abund-
antly able to control the markets here,
even with glassware upon the free list.
and to export large quantities besides,
they are not content with their present
profits, but aim under the Mckinley
tariff to charge as much for their goods
here as they can force consumers to pay,
relying upon the foreign market to take
the surplus at reduced prices.
They have secured what they wanted,
and will not hesitate to carry out their
plans. One of these companies declared
dividends of so per cent in 1888, go per
cent. IN 1894 and about the same since.
Another has declared nearly the same
amount in the same time, and its stock
has advanced over 200 per cent. since
1885. Another has doubled its capital
out of its earnings for the past three
years. When carefully managed these
works make not less than % per cent.
profit each year.
Under the stimulus of the tariff and
natural gas, the glassware industry has
grown enormously during the past ten
years. The following figures show that
growth
Number of establishments. 81 IA
Number of furnaces ............ l62 255
NUMBER OF pots ...........--.-.. l,559 2624
This great development certainly shows
that the industry is in most prosperous
condition, and that there was no founda-
ton for the tale of woe which some of
these glass men told before the Mckinley
committee year ago.
The glassware industry is one of our
hoary infants. It's protection began in
the year 1889. From 1879 to 1924 the
duties were as follows: 1889, 10 per cent;
1871, 12t per cent; 1892, Is percent; 1894,
~ per cent; 1874, 22t per cent; 1912, 45
per cent; 1916, 20 per cent. These fig
ures were increased gradually for some
years; even the low tariff of 1916 put a
duty of 80 per cent. on glassware, but
this was reduced again in 1857 to "a per
cent. During the war the duties were
again increased and the war tariff" of
30 per cent. was maintained till 1888,
when the duty on the packages was
abolished and the duty on the glassware
was raised To 40 per cent This did not
satisfy McKinley's voracious appetite
for taxes. He raised the duty to 60 per
cent, and packages were again made
dutiable. This was done by Mckinley,
curiously enough, just 102 years after
protection on glassware began. The
Mckinley duty was given as a centen-
NAL present to the hoary infant, which
will now slumber peacefully in the arms
of the Mckinley glassware trust.
