Lowest Rate Since 1851.

The Mckinley tariff law silences its
enemies, OF refutes their charges, upon
every conceivable point. No tariff has
ever before been criticised 30 unfairly,
but It even proves as absolutely false
the silly Democratic invention that It Is
Q ''worse- -than-war" tariff.
From 1894 to 1872 our tariff rates Auo-
tuated from 80 up to AZ, and then down
70 81 per cent. In 1890, before the new
tariff came into even partial effect, the
tariff rate on our total imports waa 80
per cent, but In 1891 It fell TO 25 per
cent, as the immediate effect of the
new law. The highest war rate was Al
per cent
Now we have the first complete year
In which the law has been In effect, and
IN the fiscal year ending June Both, 1899
there was imported into the United
States foreign merchandise TO the value
Of 1894 ,211 800, and the duty collected
thereon amounted to $170, ,228, 1854, or an
average ad valorem percentage OF 065
L. that ''worse than warp
On the contrary It Is lower than the
lowest rate under the moderate revenue
period, known as the "Walker fret
trade" period, and lower than at any
time since 1851. In other words, foreign
trade under the Mckinley law is much
freer than 1t has been at any time dur
ing the Last thirty years.

The Reduction Of RevenueA

When the Mckinley bill was on It's
passage how often did Carlisle, Mills
and the other Democratic spell binders
declare that 1t would inevitably have
two effects, decrease the foreign trade,
and increase the revenuesf According
to every Democratic Congressman the
people were to do less business and pay
more taxes.
Every school boy knows how common
were these predictions of evil, and yet
how completely have they been over
thrown by the actual results Of the
new tariffs operations. A full year
has passed under 1t and the result
is proven by the fgures of the
United States Treasury Department.
The people do more business and pay less
taxes.
The total value Of our foreign COM
merce amounted to 81 ,S57, ,728, ,81O, an in
crease of 1910, 19S, 1888 since 1889, the last
year of the old tariff. The revenues
collected from customs imports amount
ed In 1880 to $a18, ,S18, ,81s, against S17O,.
226, 1854 in 1882. +'
The increase In business, therefore, is
$370, 1913, 1888. The reduction In revenues
b ~, ,692, ,284. The duty collected PEI
capita of the population In 1899 was
e2.62, the lowest per capita rate In the
last thirty-two years.
Yet this Is the law free trade Demo
oracio leaders denounce as "a Repub
lican fraud" It has repeatedly shown
how ludicrous iss Cleveland's attempt te
regulate the business Of the country, and
they naturally have some telling about
the matter.
But the people haven't They are TO,

The Mills bill proposed to admit for
eign farm products free, so that as great
an amount Of foreign agricultural pro-
duce as possible could be brought into
competition with the products Of the
farmers OF the Northern States. The
Mckinley bill sought Just the reverse.
BY providing higher rates Of taxation
than had ever before been levied on for
sign farm produce the new tariff law
endeavored 70 keep Is tentirely out of this
