These official figures show that the
average value of the small quantity
Of oatmeal imported last year was SCI
cents a pound before the duty was
paid, or SCI cents with the duty added,
while the declared value of the 5,762, 7O1
pounds exported was only 27S cents a
pound. Perhaps some of our unscrupu-
Ious contemporaries will be able to per-
ceive that there are some manufacture
ers in this country who, through the
operations of the high tariff, do man.
age to sell their wares at higher
price to Americans than they get for
them abroad. The kind imported from
abroad is of an exceptionally choice
quality, and will command the market
here at high prices.
But it ought to be clear that even
when the duty is reduced, as it will
be under the Wilson bill, the oatmeal
manufacturers of this country will be
able to undersell the foreign dealers in
the American market, without reduc-
ing wages, because they can undersen
them abroad after paying the cost of
transportation. The cry that they will
be ruined and that they will have to
cut down wages is but one more of the
humbug pleas against the justice to
consumers that is embodied in the new
tariff bill.

ANOTHER PROTECTION HuMBUG.


One of the manufactures that is to
be ruined by the Wilson bill, if cal
amity shriekers are to be believed, is
the American oatmeal business. They
declare they will either have to shut
up the mills or cut down wages if the
bill becomes a law.
The oatmeal manufacturers succeed
ed in working the Mckinley commit
tee to raise the duty on oatmeal
hundred per cent, so that they might
pay high wages and compete with the
foreign manufacturers. But they did
not raise wages a cent when they sue
ceeded, and while they were making
that plea they were exporting Amer
lean oatmeal at the rate of twenty-five
million pounds a year.
They were already competing with
England and Scotland in the oatmeal
business and selling their meal in the
English and Scotch markets. But by
obtaining the increase Of duty in the
Mckinley bill. they were able to raise
the price to American consumers one
cent a pound.
But this was not enough for their
greed. They formed a Trust to effect
that rise in price. and at the same time
they cut down the wages of their
workmen between forty and fifty per
cent. That is what they did in Ohio,
as quoted in the New York Times
from dispatches published in Republic
can papers.
The official record gives the following
figures which show the effects of the
tariff at the custom house:

AMEND THE ELECTION LAWS.

We have many times said that the i'm
portant reform for restoring purity in our
elections is to put them under the control
OF the courts. and we adhere to the opin-
Ion that this Is the sine qua non. We
may adopt any regulations whatever. and
regulations that are the best that can be
devised. but If the election machinery
is under the control Of partisan boards
means Will be found TO defeat the meas
ures however stringent they may be.
The radical reform that IS. necessary is
putting the elections under the control
OF the courts. You may find an occasion
al dishonest Judge But there is some
thing In the ermine which will make most
men act fairly when they act officially
whether naturally prone TO dishonesty or
not.
But an amendment to our election laws
has been suggested by so many of our
correspondents who have witnessed the
frauds that take place that we cannot
help thinking 1t would be a most wise one
They all agree in recommending that the

suit announced. These precautions are so
obviously just that 1t Is impossible TO
understand why the law does not already
provide for them. But there will be
cheating Notwithstanding these precau-
lions and all others. If those who control
the elections are partisans or dishonest
and accountable TO no one. The courts
are the proper custodians Of the elections.
Adopt these and all other amendments
that may be suggested looking towards
securing fairness. but let the Legislature
put II out TO the people that Virginia in
tends to have fair elections and then
give the matter in charge to the courts
with absolute and arbitrary power of
removal OF election officers. and matters
will come right at the first election.
