A leading wooden manufacturer OF
Rhode Island says he has reliable infor-
nation that three of the largest wooden
manufacturers of England have COM
binea for the control of the American
market. and their agent is now here
looking over the ground, with instruc-
lions to secure its control, at no matter
what price or sacrifice. Either of their
mills is larger than any in this country,
and their production of wooden goods is
enormous. He states that other large
concerns have the same plan under con-
slderation, and he looks for long and
bitter fight for the preservation OF this
great industry, in which so many are
dependent. The English manufacturers
are prepared to undersell the American
manufacturers, however low the prices
made by the latter. Their warehouses
are filled with goods from cellar to attic,
which have been accommodating ever
since the election OF Grover Cleveland
as President. Of course the only chance
OF success on the RI art of the American
manufacturer in a struggle of this kind
lies in keeping down his expenses to the
English level, and his principal, expense
which is above the English level is the
wages paid his employees. 1t is evident
therefore where the cut must come.

NOT A PERMANENT MEASURE

No tariff measure that makes such
outrageous determinations" Ito quote
the PRESIDENTS words) as does the Cor.
man. rice bill can be permanent. A
measure that arouses the hostility of pro-
| tectionists and falls far short of meeting
the demands of SO called revenue re-
| formers, and is thoroughly agreeable only
to few gigantic monopolies like the
SUGAR Trust and the Whiskey Trnst
that derive from it direct pecuniary profit,
cannot command enough of public sup
port to stand any considerable length of
time. Already the SO called reformers
are declaring that they accept this bill
merely because it is step in the direc-
! tion in which they want to go, to be
| followed by other steps until the goal of
tariff for revenue only is reached.
The passage of the German Brice meas
ure has really settled nothing as regards
| which of the two tariff policies-protec-
ton or revenue only-is 60 become the
controlling one in the revenue system
of this country. No such mixture of
protection and tariff for revenue ONLY as
is found in this bill can form the perma-
nent basis of our revenue system. Free
trade as system can be defended. so
can protection as a system, but they
cannot be blended together. When that
is attempted the result is outrageous
favoritism, such as we see in this bill.
where the iron and coal of the monopo-
lists are protected by a duty and the
wool of the farmer is exposed to the
full and unrestricted competition of the
foreign product. Such protection as is
con iained in this bill is clearly robbery
robbery of the farmer for the benefit of
the coal and iron baron. Democratic
orators will find it impossible to defend
it-so obviously impossible that they
will not attempt it, but will make their
campaign upon promise to do away
with this outrageous discrimination.
not by restoring the duty to wool, but
by removing it from iron and coal. The
appeal of the Democrats this fall To the
voters will be substantially what it was
two years ago. None of them, we ven
ture to say, will undertake to commend
the Gorman-Brice bill as proper tariff
measure to become permanent, Thew
will simply point to it as beginning of
their work of destroying the protective
system, and will appeal Tor new lease
of power to finish it. Really then the
question to be presented to the voters
this fall is not whether the Brice-Gor-
man bill is to remain the embodiment
~ q
but whether the work OF destroying the
protective system is to be continued.
Wage earners should bear this in mind.

The signing of the -Brice tariff
will make certain for time the tariff
conditions under which manufacturers
must work, and therefore it is fair to ex-
pect somewhat general resumption of
operations in manufacturing establish
ments. Unfortunately, however, the
enactment of this tariff bill is accom-
panied by declaration on the part of
the majority of the Democrats that they
do not intend it to be permanent, and
that it is to be. torn to pieces and recon-
structed just as soon as they can get rid
OF the "traitorsn in the Senate The
tariff situation therefore is going to be
very much what it has been since the
election of Cleveland and a Democratic
Congress. There is going to exist the
threat of the destruction of this
measure, in the face of which manufac-
turers will still be timid, and will re-
strict their operations within as small
compass as possible. There has been a
temporary removal of uncertainty, but
it is only temporary.
