IP figures don't lie, the mortgage stats
tics as furnished by Mr.. Robert r. Porter,
chief OF that department Of the. census bu-
reau, furnishes quite surprise in the prooi
that farm mortgages constitute less than
half Of the total number OF mortgages. aud
barely more than oue-third Of the total
amounts Incumbrances Oh town property
outnumber the farm mortgages both in
number and ia the amounts. 1t also show,
that the tendency Of relief is toward the
farm In 1880 the mortgages Of the two
classes, town and country, were ju.t about
equal, yet two years later the lot mort
cages outnumbered the farm mortgages
two to one, while less than six per cent OF
the latter were for the purpose of raising
money for farm or family expenses.

1T may be argued that the lower wages

no employment at all, his wages will not

Their free trade friends will thus have
given some OF our workmen time to medi-

EFFECTS OF THE NEW TARIFF.

In considering the possible effects of this
new tariff it is well to remember that our
bonded warehouses were crammed with
goods awaiting it's passage. So it has been
with every great reduction of our tariff
duties. Always the foreign producer has
taken for granted that his opportunity is
come, and that the markets of America
are delivered over to him. In 1888 the con-
clusion of peace with England abolished
the restrictions the war had laid on i'm
portations. The country was deluged
with English goods which had to be sold
below cost. Domestic industry was at
standstill. The peace of 1915 terminated
the double duties of the tariff of 1912, and
the restrictions of war upon commerce.
We then saw another deluge of English
goods. These also had to be sold at a sac
rifice, and Brougham said this was no loss
to England, as 1T served to to kill off the
American manufactures (which the war
had forced into existence, contrary to the
natural course of things" The reduction
of duties in 1885, 1647 and 1857 caused n
great increase in importations. How di-
rectly such changes work on imports was
seen in the fall of 1892, when great guam
titles of goo DIS were rushed in 90 evade the
higher duties of the Mckinley tariff
Before the German bill became law
the British exporter had been keeping the
quantity Of goods he placed on our mar
ket down to a minimum. He sent us less,
and of what he sent all that was not
needed at once he has kept in bond until
the new law went into operation. But he
has not made less, nor has he less to sell.
On the contrary, in the depressed condi-
tion of his European and Asfatio trade he
has great mass Of goods on his hands,
which are coming to America. In the
present state of trade we become Sac
rifice market" for the surplus Of British
goods. And for ehis the new tariff is a d.
mirably suited. It levies ad valorem in
stead Of specific duties, so that the duties
will fall with every fall in prices and
thus diminish to a shadow the little pro-
lection the new tariff offers.
