GREAT REFORM IN CHICAGO.

Chicago makes no idle boast when she claims
10 be the marvel of the nineteenth century. The
ancient world had plethora of wonders-seyen; !;
the modern world has but one-ChicagO. city
Of over million people, which has grown up in
little over forty years, can scarcely be regarded
in any other light save that of a miracle. But
Chicago is not a miracle of even the recent or
immediate paSt-she is live, growing miracle
of the actual present She is moving panorama
Of enterprise-an active volcano of progress. No
one can better realize this than can The Tribune,
which has just been rebulHed by Chicago in a
quiet but thorough manner.
Three weeks ago we printed short article
wherein we considered Chicagos claim to he one
of the worlds great cities, and reluctantly denied
the claim on account of the habit her business
men had Of feeding their horses oats out of soap
boxes on the edge OF the sidewalk. We said
that no city could be great whose sidewalks were
carpeted with wet oats. We then showed wherein
the hopa Of Chicago lay, namely, in nose-bags for
the horses Humble nose-bags are we said,
they will raise Chicago from a city Of the second
rank 70 a city Of the first rank" Then. in clos
ina We foolishy added They must he adopted
before the opening OF the Worlds Fair We
thought we knew that we were not giving Chi
cago much time for the change when the thou

TIE TLN.PLATE WORKERS.

The favorite Mugwump argument about the
tin-plate question is to affirm that it would be
cheaper to board the hands at a hotel than to
oblige all Americans TO pay heavy duties in
encouraging their industry. This characteristic
bit of tIickery is based on the assumption that
the only persons employed in the manufacture
of tin plates here or abroad are those engaged
in timing the iron and steel sheets after they
are made, whereas a great part of the work IS
in the mining Of the ore, the smelling of the
metal and the rolling of it into sheets OF the
required thickness, size and quality. Thus one
correspondent quotes Major Mckinley as saying
that only $4,000 persons were employed in
Great Britain in the production of 10,s00,00O
hundredweght Of tin plates, Of which the bare
cost was at least $50, 100000. If this were
true, the cost of the labor 50 employed would be
much more than 81 200 for every person,
whereas il is notorious that by far the greater
part of this labor in Great Britain is OF kinds
paid much less than the average, and the best
of the skilled worlSmen employed in coating tho
steel sheets with tin do not receive anything like
81, 900 year Mr.. Mckinley, if not misquoted,
doubtless refers to that part of the work only.
OF another assertion, that a large part of the
Iln pldlS lH1pOilSu II HON lHJO tdlo
and exported, it will be more convenient to
speak separately. For the present, it makes no
difference what quantity of tin plates may be
consumed within this country. If it be
100000 hundredweight, the work will give
employment to about $4,000 hands, according
to estimates which have been made by some
of the most competent manufacturers. This in
cludes, of course, the additional labor required
to mine more iron ore, more coal and limestone,
to smet more iron and to roll it into sheets Of
iron or Steel and to polish the sheets for the
timing, and the labor of coating the sheets with
tin. The real question is whether we should
have all this work done in this country by men
who consume food from American farms, and
clothing from American mills and shops, or in
Great Britain, by men who consume the prod
ucts of foreign labor.
The Mugwump says we shall produce only
200, 900 hundndwelght employing only 500
hands, who could be boarded at hotel with
their families at less than half the sum the
people will pay in duties on the other tin plate
New-York tribune., 1891-09-24

consumed. To this it is enough to answer una,
the law itself provides that the duties small
cease unless third of the entire quanuty OF
tin plate consumed in this country shall within
a few years he supplied by American works
The beginnings of a bank, rallroao or
factory are not always profitable, but the penod
of abundant profitableness can hardly ever be
reached unless people, for the sake of reaching
Il are prepared to face heavy outlays at first
with Inadequate returns for a time. But when
the country has once so far developed TINS IN
dustry that a third of the tin plate consumed in
this country can be made here no long time Will
eanse before American industry will also sup
ply the whole
When all the persons to whom this industry
wiIl give employment are enumerated enough
TO supply third of the consumption would
ppobably be more than 15,000 and several
thousand of them are already at work. By
their labor thousands of families will be sup
norted. for Protection does not force women
and children into the mines and the coal-plts,
the foundries and the rOlling-mlls, as Free
Trade does in Great Britain. The men and
their families will expend most of their earnings
in purchasing millions worth of food and cloth
ing and other necessaries of life from American
producers, so that in supplying the needs OF
Is. 600 families there will be occupied 10000
or $4,000 other families in this country. The
money stays at home, Is earned by Americans,
and distributed to Americans. Even the sum
paid in duties on imported tin plates also stays
at home, and is employed by the whole people
in paving off the National debt.
In addition, the struggle of foreign manu-
facturers to retain their American custom Is ex-
ceedngFy likely to put down the price 80 far
that this country will pay millions less each year
for the tin plates it still buys from Europe than
it has been obliged to pay. The same tin plates
are selling in England now at 13 shillings which
did sell last year at IS shillings, and yet the
competition has scarcely begun. When the
foreigners pay nearly the whole Of the duties
into the Treasury of the United States to be ex-
pended for the benefit Of the people, while ad-
ditional labor is supplied for thousands OF Amerl-
can families, even Mugwump will probably
be able to see that the new duty has nroved
a new blessing
