The subcommittee of the finance
committee OF the senate, which has
been investigating for the last sixteen
months the effect OF tariff legislation
in this country upon prices and wages.
has submitted . report, with the for
mai endorsement OF the whole COM
mistee irrespective of party affiliations.
The investigation has been . thorough
and psinstaking one, and because Of
the endorsement Of the report by prom
inens leaders of both the republican
and dsmocrs tic parties, IL 10 not prob
able that it, honesty or accuracy will
be questioned during the coming polit-
ical campaign. The subcommittee was
assisted in It's work BY Henry c. Adams,
professor Of political economy ut the
University Of Michigan; Carroll b.
Wright, commissioner Of the depart
nens OF labor; Gen. Francis A. Walker,
Prof. 4. J. James, of the University Of
Psnnsylvsuia; Edward Atkinson and
w. NJ. Grosvsnor. The report effect
usiiy demolishes esery argument that
the democratic orator used IN
the campaign Of 1890, and CON-
ing a. it does from unani-
nous committee. upon which both
parties are represented. IL has double
force. The first iustallmens of the re-
port covers the results of an inquiry
into prices and wages for . period Of
twenty-eight months before and after
the passage Of the Mckinley tariff Law,
from Jnne 1. 1889, to September /, 1891.
These results are q complete and
triumphant indication of the McKin-
ley bill and the republican majority IN
the congress Which passed 1t. The con-
illusions which are drawn from the
facts in the report are that retail prices
OF commodities used by consumers
having ordinary incomes were slightly
lower in September. 1891, year after
me new tariff law had passed, than at
the time of Is passage or IN any month
Of the year and quarter preceding its
passage. This means. OF course. that
the cost Of living vas less after the pas
sage OF the Mckinley act than before,
and the figures OF the report also show
that the cost OF living has continued
b decrease. so that prices in May. 1899.
were IL per cent lower than IN sepsenl-
Der. 1891. and "a per cent lower than
r June, 1889.

will be distributed TO aid in giving poor
dependent children ray of sunshine
in the otherwise darkness Of their
lives.
