TIRIFF ILLUSTRATIONS.

Practical illustrations are given in our stall
correspondents letter from Rochester OF the
effects of the repeal of a revenue duty and OF
the imposition of Il protective duty. Slnce
Louisiana lies on the edge Of the gar-pro-
dncng zone. and not fairly within it. it has
been able during recent years to furnish only
a small fraction OF the sugar consumed IN the
United States. With an imported supply OF
81 90. 900, 900, the sugar duties have lacked the
characteristics Of protective legislation ana
have been revenue duties. These were re-
pealed by the last Republican Congress for the
benefit of consumers. A cheapening OF sugar
supply. while il was relished by every work
ingmans family. was most highly appreciated
by manufacturers of American preserves. The
cost of their goods was greatly diminished and
they were enabled to compete successfully IN
the production of a class of jams which had
previously been imported to the extent OF
So. 900. 900 year from England. The result
has been the establishment of a new industry
which has assumed considerable importance in
fruit growing regions With cheap sugar the
American goods are driving the Scotch jams
and marmaladcs out of market. and the farmers
in Western New-York have found new mar
for the repeal Of a revenue duty and its effect
upon fruit-canning.
The increase in the duties on tn-plate was
a protective measure designed to promote the
establishment of a new industry. Vast guam
titles of tn-platc had been imported for many
years. and the price had been regulated by
Welsh combinations or trusts and had not been
lowered 10 American consumers, who took tho
bulk Of the product. The creation OF the
American industry with an improved plant and
the multiplication of labor saving devices prom
ised 70 reduce prices ultimately. but while 1t
was in its tentative stage and before the IA
cilties for producing tinplate were adequate
for the requirements of the market, higher
prices seemed inevitable. Strangely enough, the
canning trade in fruits, vegetables and meats
does not seem TO have felt the burden Of the
increased duty. Il has been Offset by economies
practised in other directions. and has not raised
the prices " class OF food products which is
now in common use The evidence Of this as
scrton which il directly contrary To the teach
ing Of our Free-Trade adversares is found in
the plice-lis,s Of these goods during two sue
cessiye wears The tin-plate duties have not
raised the price of canned goods. There has
been, on the whole tendency toward lower
prices. and it will be accelerated when the new
American industry is firmly established and the
price OF plate is cheaper than it has ever
been in FreeTrade England.

CONNECTICUT PROSPERITY

1t was not the aim of the trainers Of the
Mckinley act that the prices OF farm produce
should be cheapened. On the contrary, il was
their earnest expectation that agricultural in
terests would be benefited by protective lcgis
latiOn. One Of the most striking results Of the
Senate Finance Committees investigation Of
prices is the fact that while there has been Il
marked decline in the prices OF manufactured
articles in ordinary consumption. there has
been sharp advance in the prices of nearly
all agricultural products especially cereals and
meats, barley and vegetables, and other staples.
If the price Of wool has declined in consequence
of over production throughout the world
American wOol-growers have only partly felt
the unfavorablc effect. In nearly all ether
classes of agricultural produce there has been
an advance in the first price to the farmer.
A striking instance Of this general effect Of
the Mckinley act is given in our special core
spondence from Hartford. Prosperity reigns
in the Connecticut Valley, where the tobacco
growing interest was mcnaced with destruction
two years ago. Farms which were abandoned
are now under cultivation; waste lands have
been reclaimed; farm buildings have been i'm
proved and mortgages paid off. and as the
effect Of higher prices for leaf tobacco the indus
try has received new impulse. The hopes of
the tariff makers have not been wholly fulfilled
since Sumatra leaf with 10-cent labor behind
it is still imported in the face of the increased
duties but very large measure of relief has
been afforded for the protection OF New Eng
land farmers, and they sorely needed it, Two
years ago they were rapidly being crowded ont
of the American market by imporations from
the Netherlands and the East Indies. To-day
they are enlarging their acreage in tobacco and
are receiving good prices for an improved quail
ity of leaf. This is one of many Connecticut
interests which have felt the inveoratinR tonic

TITO distinct QUESTIONS,

The rise i'm wages covers two distinct sets OF
facts. which are often COMPOUNDED by those
who have not investigated the subject This
confusion Of thought is the source of most OF
the genuine and honest doubt which has been
produced in some minds by the differences be-
tween the wages reported by the Senate Finance
Committee and the report Of Commissioner
Peck. The rate Of wages earned per week or
per month is one thing. The earnings in a
year or a month are another and very different
thing.
For illustration, woollcn mill paid hands
in certain occupation 81 per day in 1880 and
S215 in 1891. Here was an increase OF about
per cent in weekly wages the rate only being
considered But the mill worked six months
in the year ending with August 1890, and nine
months during the year ending with August
1891, having better demand for It's goods
Here was an increase Of 50 per cent in time
for which wages were paid. The earnings for
twcnty-six weeks ut 81 per day in the year
ending August, 1890, would have been S312.
The earnings for thirty-nine weeks ut S3 %
per day in the year ending August, 1891. would
have been 1903 TO- This shows an increase of
81 per cent in actual earnings during the year
cent in the rate Of wages
The same principle applies il the mills worked
short days the whole or part of the time in one
wear and full time overtime i'll the other
The earnings would be much increased. though
the rate of wages had increased but little.
As the true question for the man employed
is how much he was able to earn in given
year. the test Of yearly earnings when those
can be ascertained is Of more value for com
parison with the cost of living, or with refer
cncc to the effects of tho tariff upon the CON
ditiOn Of labor
Commissioner Peck obtained statistics show
ing the earnings for each year. These were
given from the books Of manufacturers, and
must be presumed correct until some evidence
to the contrary appears. The Senate Commit
tee obtained the rate of wages paid when men
were at work but the very nature of the state
ment, as il required comparison month by
month for some years, prevented ascertainment
of aggregate earnings for consecutive years.
In consequence the committees statement
would necessarily show change in rate Of
wages exclusive Of any differences in the time
the mills worked. The Commissioners report
would necessarily show an increase in time
worked, in addition to the change in rate of
wages If the establishments were generally
better employed in 1891 than in 1890, rs they
surely were, if they worked more nearly full
time, more hours in the day or more weeks in
the year, the increase in aggregate earnings
would be greater than the increase in rate of
wages paid per day or per week. With UNI
changed rate Of wages, large increase in earn
ings might appear. Even with some reduction
in the rate of wages, some increase in yearly
earnings might be truly reported.
The benefits OF Protection are not fully shown
unless the larger and more constant employ
ment of works is taken into account, as we'll
as tho advance in rate of WAGES. Therefore

1t is unfortunate that Health Officer Jenkins
shows some disposition to cavil at the action
of the Administration in regard to vessels ar
irving from infected ports, and exhibits no
earnest desire to cooperate heartily and zeal
ousy with the Federal authorities in the tre-
mendous task of keeping cholera ont of the
country. The experience OF Health Oiilcer
Jenk ins is not so extensive and his reputation
is not so distinguished that it is becoming for
him TO set himself up as better fitted than the
Administration to decide on the best course to
pursue in this emergency. something more OF
humility and reasonableness would be suitable
in his case. He should recognize that the Adj
mnistlation is just as anxious as he is to pro-
tect the homes of the people of this country
from the rayages of cholera, and that larger
wisdom and better judgment than his may
have directed the steps which have been taken
at the National Capital. lie ought to be eager
