1t has long been the custom Of tariff
protected trusts to sell their products
lower tor foreign than to home com
sumers. II Is useless for the consumers
to object because the trusts are empow-
cred by the Mckinley bill to do exactly
this sort oftwo faced business. Not only
does this Bill put up no barriers against
exports, but it encourages the exporta-
tion Of manufactured goods at low prices
by remitting the duty paid on the raw
materials when and only when goods
are exported The American consumer
is bled numerically by this process, and
his interests are made subservient to the
interests Of organized capital. 1t is no
wonder, them that trusts. taking their cue
from laws which disregard and even
spurn the, interests of the consumer,
should treat, him as having no rights
which highly favored capitalists are
bound to respect. So high handed have
these trusts become that some Of them

posted glass workers and editors in the
glass industry. His opinion is indorsed
by thousands Of glass workers. who con-
slider him their clear headed spokesman.
He says:
at is a condition, not o theory" which
confronts the capitalistic method of pro-
duction in the manufacture Of plate
glass. The following facts win prove
interesting: A tariff of from IL to 14i
per cent was placed upon plate glass as
early as 1854. The amount of tariff col.
lected annually on plate glass imported
has averaged about $4,000, 900 0annually
since 1854. The American people have
therefore contributed nearly $4,000, 900
in the last 80 years for the ''protsction
Of American labor" engaged i'm plate
glass manufacture.
The total value Of oil the plants in
operation today, including watered
stock and all, does not exceed $aby9O0,-
900. During the past month a trnst has
been formed which controls about 48
per cent Of the entiro production Of the
country, and there exists an understand
ing between the manufacturers inland
outside Of the trust relative to the sell
ing price and the regulation of pFodnc-
ton. There are now four factories shat
down, and 1t has been decided to close
down all works in the country for 90
days in order to reduce stocks and make
repairs. About 5000 men are now idle;
and another 5000 will be thrown out of
work within the next few weeks. Are
duction Of wages amounting to 20 per
cent is anticipated by the workmenl
when the works resume.
The first plate glass was made in New
Albany, Ind, in 1872. Natural gas,
caused capital to flow into this remuner.-
ative industry, and additional works
were built at Creighton, Tarentum and

panies, and the land improvement COM.
panies were the same person, and in sew
eral cases, for the convenience of the
workmen, the glass company and the
land company occupied Offices in, the
same building, SO that the wages paid
ontfor labor in the plate glass works at
one window could be paid in for pur-
chased lots at arM her window. To this
must be added, IN order to get, an, APP
proximate idea Of the enormities of the
profits made by these concerns, that; the
dividends for years past, evens on stock
watered 100 per cent, have been 392par

$500 on par value of $10O penshare, and
there has been none for sale,sTen at that

that the plate glass trust will have. the
softest kind of snap when a reduction
Of wages is announcadl after several
months of idleness.
The productive capacity Of American
works at present is $4,000, 900 squarefeet
per annum. The amonnt Of imported
plate glass reaching enr shores has been
between 5000, 900 and 4,0000O0 square
feet during 10 years, past, and last year
was reduced by domestic competition to
$500, 900 square feet.
The consumption Of tho country has
never exceeded 10000 square feet,
and there is consequently q surplusage
Of glass annually of 2,5OO. 600 square feet
Of imported, and q surplus domestic
product Of 8,0o0. 900 or I, ,5OO, 600 square

We cannot displace the imported glass
without cutting down the cost Of pro-
duction, wages and profits.
We cannot meet foreign glass in for
eign markets which the foreign manu-
facturer can reach at freight rates cheap
er than he reaches our own ports.
But reduction Of cost would not en-
