binding twine. Not ONLY are thess
long line machines controlled by the
trust. but they have even tied up con-
Germs that manufacture them with con-
ira q and conditions. 20 that the
machinery Is understandable. The letter
printed from the company Offering 70
sell machinery IL bonds for &a0o, 900
we're given by the state Is q sample OF
the impudence OF the monopoly. OF
course Il was impossible 20 make pur-
ennses these conditions, md the
prison authorities were compelled 10
mnke their additions 10 machinery OF
the same kind as that now IN use. and
are thus prohibited from making bind
Ing Irvine from Manila and Sisal al
all The farmers can get only the ~
binary hemp twinc from the prison
mandatory.
The insolence and the power of this
concern seem marvellous when II Is re-
men bered how soicmnly congress has
protested against trusts and how eager
Il has professed itself to legiLate
against them. Yet this particular one.
which refuses to let the people make
binding Irvine as long as IL can compel
them TO buy OF II at lis own prices, Is
protected by a duty Of scven-tcnths Of
a cent per pound on binding Irvine
made Of Manila and Sisal. A strong
tight was made by Senator Davis
against this duty and In favor Of put
ting such Irvine on the free list. but he
succeeded only in securing a reduction
OF the duty TO the present figure.
II is time that the rest Of IL
was abolished. When the entire BUSH
ness OF manufacture Is in the hands
OF a single concern. which gets
its raw material without paying a cent
OF duty, when II freezes out every com-
petitor BY getting n monopoly Of neces-
sary machinery and refuses to so much
as sell a machine, then the word pro
as applied 70 a duty on the
product OF such a concern becomes a
misnomer, an insult and a wrong.
The tariff on binding Irvine
made from Manila and Sisal
benefits nobody ia the United States
but the National Cordagc Co. We do
approve Of the general policy Of
reducing the tariff by separate bills.
but we shall be glad to see how many |
men in either house will have the face
TO vote against q bill that proposes to
put binding Irvine on the free list
There Is 10 more odious trust than
this in America. Down with it."

This Is an increase OF over 33 per

sents wooden cloths only for 1890. I'm
der the Mckinley tariff WOODEN and
worsted cloths bear the same rates
Similarly. pushes were not separately
enumerated in 1890.
On bunting, as shown above. the ad
vnlorem rate Is less now than in 1890
The duties are. however. higher now
than before. but since they are prac-
tically p~rohibitivc. this fact is Of little
importance.
A tariff averaging % - per cent.
just suits the large number OF so-called
WOODEN manufacturers. who are large
users Of shoddy extracts and cotton
Only . short time ago one OF the lead
ing manufacturers declared that ali
wool goods are now the exception and
not the rule. No truer or briefer state
ment Of the effect Of high and pro-
hibitive duties has ever been made.
NE high duties on wool and woolens
have made all wool goods SO high that
Sthey are beyond the means o. . large
number Of people Al a consequence
they must wear shoddy instead.
1t has been asserted that wooden
goods nave not risen in price in conse-
quence Of the Mckinley tariff. How
this can be rcconciied with an increase
10 the duties Of fully s3 per cent and
but a slight decrease in the importa-
tons is beyond comprehension.
But the Mckinley tariff has been a
bonanza TO the manufacturers, for II
enabled such mills as the Arlington, Of
whlch Mr.. Whitman Is president to
earn a profit Of 50 per cent in 1921. No
wonder, in view OF this. that Mr..
Whitman IL SO strenuous in his oppo-
sision 70 any change In the duties on

but a legalized form Of robbery. There
