There is democratic tariff law
in force now. It is the intention OF
the democrats if they win at the ap-
preaching election to pass still more
democratic one by cutting off some
more protection. If this is done there
will be repetition of the melancholy
scenes of the last eighteen months and
further lowering of wages. 1t
prophesies also that in the event
of republican success in 1895 and a re-
publican revision of the present law
raising all the duties which do not
give adequate protection there will be
no panic, but an advance in wages and
increased employment. The junior
organ should cut out these prophecies

The People's friend., 1894-09-28

prompt revival of business, and who
have more zeal than knowledge, that
the new tariff makes only little change
from the Mckinley law. Yet what are
the facts? On many of the most i'm
portant products the duties are re-
duced more than one-half, and on
many others as much as a third, and
these are products, moreover, which
were SO largely imported in 1891 and
1892 under the Mckinley duties as to
prove that those duties were by no
means prohibitory.
1t is essential to remember that a
duty which is not high enough to pro
tect is like a dam which is not strong
enough to resist food. Only little
difference in the. dam or the duty may
bring tremendous disaster in place of
peace and prosperity. The question is
whether the duty is high enough to
keep domestic establishments at work
with fair wages. Cutting off wages
necessarily cuts off what the people
can buy, and thus necessarily reduces
business. Now the one fact which
everybody can see is that wages are at
present very much lower than they
were two years ago, before the people
voted for change of tariff, and the
definite settlement which the new
tariff has brought does not anywhere
permit any recovery Of wages as yet.
but in many important branches it has
compelled decline. Thus the win
dow-glass workers recently accepted a
reduction of twenty per cent. and the
tiint-glass and tin plate workers are
also expected to accept reduction.
1t is impossible to state with accu-
racy what the aggregate reduction in
all kinds of wages has been, but it is
unouestionably enough to account for
material shrinkage in the purchases
of the people, and consequently in the
volume of business. This alone would
be a very serious change, should it
continue, even though none of the
American works should be directly
closed by foreign competition. For it
the people can only spend $4,000, 900,
900 where they formerly spent $5,0OO,-
OOO, 600 yearly, great many esta blish-
ments will have to stop because of a
lack of demand for their products.
Some theorists imagine that, with
prices down 90 or so per cent. the
smaller wages will go as far and buy
as many boots or clothes as the larger
wages previously received. But the
trouble is that while prices of some
goods which are liable to be imported
have been much reduced, other prices
have been reduced very little or not at
all. 1t is capable of demonstration
that the cost of living, even at the
lowest point this year, has at no time
. been as much as 10 per cent lower
than it was in 1892, but wages are
probably at least 20 per cent lower.
