AMERICAN CUTLERY.

Two years ago the Democracy was greatly
concerned about "the great Jack knife ques-
ton" The Mckinley act had raised the duties
on cutlery. and the increased protection was
Haunted before the country as one of the chief
enOrmities of Republican legislation. Demo
cratic Senator's enlarged upon the outrage in
lurid speeches. and calculated the sulferines of
the overtaxed consumer with the precision of
decimals They attempted to prove that tax
of III per cent had been levied upon pocket
knives, which had been selling for Is cents
dozen, or l-2 cents apiece Then they grew
red in the face in denouncing the injustice of
class legislation, which wickedly taxed the poor
man III per cent on his l. 2cent knife and
the rich man IS per cent on his dollar knife
From the jack knife they passed TO razors with
increasing frenzy There was even more class
legislation in razors than in knives the poor
man being taxed 10 per cent and the rich
man only So per cent There was no truth
whatever in these charges of discrimination. as
Senator Aldrch had no difficulty in demon
strating at the close of the debate on the Tariff
bill but the Democracy derived great deal
of comfort from its allegations about the pros
pective ruin of the importing trade in 1-2-cent
knives and 1O-cent razors.
The necessity for the changes in the cutlery
schedule was apparent in Connecticut two years
ago. That great industry, which had been a
most prosperous one was languishing from the
unrestricted importation of cheap cutlery from
Germany and England. The low prices quoted
by tariff agitators were. of course. fictitious,
but in consequence of cheap labor abroad i'm
mense importations of cutlery of the poorest
quality had cut into the American trade and
were menacing it with ruin. To make bad
matter worse, the foreign goods were often sold
under American names, and the reputation of
Connections cutlery which had always been
very high. was impaired. The Mckinley tariff
aimed to remedy these evils by the trade mark
provisions and by increased duties. In the
main it has succeeded admirably. Foreign
counterfeits On genuine American manufactures
have been excluded. The foreign imDortations
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1892-08-31

have been greatly restricted. The home pro-
duction has been correspondingly increased.
High wages have been maintained and the
tendency is upward. Prices for all grades OF
table cutlery are markedly lower, and with the
exception of few grades of pocket cutlery
there has been no increase. One OF the odes:
American industries has been rescued from the
degrading competition OF cheap labor and from
dishonesty in trade marks.
1t is true that the celebrated 1-2-cent jack
knife and the 0cent razor are not turned out
in Connecticut but as they only figured in
Democratic campaign speeches the loss Is only
An imaginary one The cheap cutlery sold in
the streets was never worth buying The i'm
ported lO-cent knives were broken in sharp
ening toothpicks, and the 25-cent razors only
served to impair the poor mans temper. The
lowest grades of American cutlery are now sold
at very low prices. and are greatly superior in
quality 10 the foreign rubbish which was
formerly imported. The progress made in the
Connecticut trade during the last two years is
clearly described in our correspondence from
Meridcn The consumer has not been sub
jected TO the eXtOrtons which were forecast
by our excited Democratic opponents, whose
dreams were disturbed by visions of an I'M
shaved American wOrkingman without jack
knife in his pocket. lie has got on fairly
well, and the manufacturers and their workers
have prospered.
