A FEW days ago the Financial News,
of London, after stating the conclusions
of the Senate finance committee in the
Aldrich report, to the effect that there
had been a reduction of the cost of liv-
ing and an advance in wages since the
passage of the Mckinley law, said:
If the CONCLUSIONS of the subcommittee
are really borne out by the improved con-
ditions of the people. the Americana will
undoubtedly be able, henceforth. 10 put
forward a substantial Justification for their
protective policy. We might. perhaps. 90
further. and say that free-traders. all the
world over. will be strongly inclined to re-
consider their position.
The above is the testimony of British
capital. Now let us consider the testi-
fnony of British labor, in its organ, the
London Industries. of July 90. 1892,
The workmen, it must be confessed, have
not hitherto looked to the tariff in vain.
They have not only enjoyed high rate of
wages. but they have also had an increas-
ingly high rate for number of years past.
Labor has nearly doubled in value In all
iron and steel-works in the United States
during the last twenty years. Within the
same period there has been general re-
duction in the prices of commodities. so
that labor has enjoyed the benetits of both
high wages and low prices.
1t is not expected that this last state
ment will have any weight with the
Democratic free trader whose eyes are
but wage learners in this country should
give heed to the testimony of foreign
labor organ.
