THE WOODEN TARIFF.

The new tariff on manufactured
wool went into effect on Tuesday.
1t makes, says the Inter Ocean,
very great reductions in duties
and we soon shall see whether
"the tariff is a tax" Or not. For
example, the duty on cloth valued
a. not more than 50 cents per
ID. was I6S per cent under the
Mckinley law; it is 40 per cent
under the new tariff; we soon shall
see whether the selling price is
reduced by more than three
fourths, as the tariff is. Tie duty
on cloth valued at SO cents per
pound was 9o.5 per cent and now
is reduced to SO; we shall see if
the selling price be reduced by
one-half. We do know that the
selling prices Of these qualities of
goods did not rise in proportion to
the increase of duty that the
Mckinley law imposed in excess
of the duty levied by the tariff of
1898. If it now be proved that
great decrease of the tariff does
not effect great decrease of price,
as it has been proved that con-
siderable increase of tariff duty is
not followed by a considerable
increase Of cost to, the consumer,
then tariff is a tax" may never
again. be political battle cry.
The tariff-now in-force effects an
average reduction Of near to 40
per cent on ali wooden goods; on
some it effects a reduction of 100
per cent; on very few as slight a
r>~ult. il ~cu,
Shall see il prices fall i'll ratio OF
tariff. We shall see, also, if wages
fall in ratio of reduction of the
selling price of goods.-Appleton

BARLEY AND OTHER CEREALS.

If Our farmers will look into tht
reports Of the Treasury Depart
ment they will find that Russia is
now importing barley quite largely
INTO the United States. This was
made possible by the reduction OF
duties in the grain schedule under
the Wilson law, now operative. 1t
does not appear that prices have
been materially lowered by these
imports, therefore no resulting
benefits are as yet enjoyed by tho
purchasers of the foreign article;
but it does appear that the growers
Of barley in the United States are
materially hurt in that the home
market for the home product is
taken from the home producer by
the foreign producer to more Or
less injurious extent.
1t may be contended by Free
Traders that expected benefits to
users of barley will come after
awhile, when the market price
breaks under excessive supply
through importations from Europe
The inquiry then would be whether
the American grower would con-
tinue to produce barley at
European prices. There would
probably be a general cessation Of
production of this cereal, and the
second inquiry would present
itself, viz: how long after the des-
truction of the American producer
would it be before Europe, having
possession Of the American market
would advance prices to suit her
own views? What would become
of the American users interest in
the hands Of the European pro
Queer? Nothing but return tc
Protective DUTIES could reinstate
the equilibrium then so seriously
disturbed,
Our grain growers, we fear, have
two more years Of severe tria]
ahead. The question of how tc
meet them should be most care,
fully weighed by every farmer in
the country.

The real masters of both en-
ployes and employed are the
owners of the worlds soil and
wealth.
saThese owners fix the terms
not only for the toilers, but for
that of their employees also, and
rob from both. The dependence
of labor does not mean accepting
the wages of another; if q man
have the choice whether to do so
or not, he may accept them and
still be free. 1t is the denial of
this choice to both employer and
employed-the conditions which
give all the footholds and means
of life to the few, and enable
these to say to dispossessd labor,
This world Is ours, and whether
we toll for days wages or other
wise, We can have no right to
labor, except by our leave and
upon terms-that constitutes the
dependence.of labor. It is this
dependence that makes toll SO
grinding and existence so pre-
carious, and that makes labor
debt-ridden in spite of all its
hardships. We're it not for the
fact that the debtor is allowed
his legal exemptions, and that
our laws no longer tolerate inn
prisonment for debt, at least
three-fourths of the would be
even now at the absolute mercy
of their creditors"
THE CONDITION OF THE WAGE
GARNER TO-DAY.
While it is true that the theory
of the survival of the fittest when
applied to man is fundamentally
false as well as inhuman, it is
true that owing to unjust condi-
fions, which flow from special
privileges, flew are enjoying the
fruits of industry of the millions
with the appalling result that the
masses today are forced into a
fierce and pitiless struggle for ex-
istence which is at once essenti-
ally debasing the moral nature,
enervating to the intellectual
faculties, and destructive to free
government and enduring pro-
gress. sll
Whether we take wage-work-
er, the farmer, the mechanic, or
the business man, the position of
each, and his existence even, are
secured only By q fierce and com
petitive struggle. Not only is
that struggle intense, but it is
~precarious, as seen in the condi-
ton of the wage-laborer when he
loses employment, of the farmer
when, unable to hold his farm,
he loses it under mortgage, or
of the mechanic and the mer-
chant who fail in business and
are ruined"
Very impressive is the extend
ed notice of the dependent con-
dition of the wealth-producers of
the world and the bitter strug-
gle, the forlorn battle, which
they r. waging for the right,
to earn @ little more than q bare
livelihood. The toiler looks out
upon q bountiful world, but
knows full we'll that of all this
wealth he has no right to so
much as a crust of bread to keep
from starving, except he earn ii
his labor. Nor even to labor has
he any right, except by the con-
sent of the owners of this wealth
for upon the soil OF its fruits all
labor must be exerted; he must
have use of these, and of mach
inery and tools, and must enter
the employ of these owners, who

the refusal on the part of society
to accept the great basic truth
that the earth belongs to the
people, and not to a few people;
when the slow-thinking masses
who for SO many weary ages
have allowed themselves to be
hoodwinked by the tools of the
privileged classes, awaken to the
truth that by uniting at the bal
lot they ear change the current
of affairs, and in so changing
may bring about, not nihilism
and ruin, but a bloodless and
glorious revolution which shall
help humanity upward as well
as onward, and radiate the sun
shine of happiness over a heart
heavy world-then will dawn
the hour of Humanity's most
splendid triumph; the hour which
shall entitle man to be called a
rational being.
Today while the toilers of the
world are engaged in a desper-
ate struggle for a ''precarious
subsistence, they see around
them the lavish wealth and idle
splendor of the rich; a spectacle
which alone, if they would but
stop and think, would effectively
set at naught all the tine-spun
fallacies and explanations of the
minions of ~plutocracy. They
would also perceive that while
"their own desperate exertions
furnish them only a scanty liv-
ing" the favored classes are
"vying with each other in a mad
race to spend their boards for
vulgar display and for every
luxury and indulgence known to
man," while, furthermore, their
fortunes, despite their reckless
waste of unearned wealth, "are
growing from year to year. No
comparison can be made between
the condition of the poor and
that of the millionaire; magma
ton can scarce bridge over the
distance between them. Yet in
this new world the millionaire is
of recent origin"
"When it is considered that
less than thirty thousand men
already own half the entire
wealth of this country of some
sixty million inhabitants, and
that the number and wealth of
the enormously rich is fast in
creasing, the poverty of the
masses may be accounted for.
The poor and the rich live in the
same world; and, however enor-
nous may be the possessions CT
the one, or meagre the scant
earnings of the other, these are
alike drawn from the same fund;
labor exerted upon the soil or
upon the products of the soil is
the source of all wealth. If,
then, the few have such dispro-
poltionat share, there must be
little left for the many. Just in
proportion as the rich grow rel
atively richer must the poor
grow relatively poorer. When
we see the millionaire heaping
up his hundreds of millions in
the course of a single lifetime,
we may and must expect to see
labor getting less than it's share,
and poverty increasing; and this
is borne out by the actual facts;
in large centres where million
aires most abound, the squalor
IAI" .aH
and poverty of the poor is most
general and most extreme. This
is, indeed, but the law of simple
arithmetic; one half the nations
wealth or labor's gains being
given to thirty thousand men,
there remains but one-half to di-
vide among the sixty million
others. 1t is also the law of
organic life; if the vitality be alb
sorbed to plethora by one part
of the body, all other parts must
be enfeebled thereby.

ed in abundance, but the distri-
button of this wealth makes the
millionaire and the proletariat.
He next emphasizes the fact that
''the rich are exempt from any
struggle for existence like that
of the poor man." and that it is
by exemption from thal strug-
gle and through enjoyment of
privileges that the colossal for
tunes are acquired.
PLUTOCRACY THE PRODUCT OF
PRIVILEGE.
He observes that a great num-
Der of the great fortunes descend
to their owners by Inheritance.
""These inherited fortunes grow
without effort or exertion of the
owners, by interest, by rent, and
by profits upon capital. The
many who are disinherited must
have the use of this wealth, and
they have no recourse but to go
to these owners that privilege;
their necessity compels them to
pay the price asked, whether
this be interest for the use of
money, rent for the use of lands,
or selling their labor at such
prices as to yield capital the
great profits of industry. Can
it be wondered at, then, that the
owners of the worlds wealth, to
whom it is ~parcelled out by laws
of inheritance, continue to grow
richer, standing as they do at
the very threshold of life and
debating to the world of labor
the terms upon which it shall
live ? Thus it is that these in.
herited fortunes grow from age
to age, and will continue to dc
SO, until, by the memorable logic
of the present system, the world
becomes altogether, as it even
now almost is, the world of the
rich. Inheritance is thus a priv.
ilege, in that those who take
under it do so without engaging
in any struggle for existence, OF
even for their boards, which are
vastly in excess of the amour
required for their subsistence
1t is, furthermore, a privilege
in that the fortunes SO acquired
grow Of their own accord, with
out struggle or exertion on tn
part of the owners, by the mas
terry which the monopoly of the
world gives.
MANY more of these fortunes
are acquired by the monopoly o
land. The poor who invest il
the mere equities of land during
seasons of speculation, or VIII
endeavor to own their home
under mortgage, may conclude
when they lose these by fore
closure, that land ownership i:
is not desirable; and the con
clusion of both may be true whel
they are compelled to pay inter
est at present rates upon thu
mortgages. Yet the fact remains
that the real landlord class-no.
they who hold a mere equity
but they who own the land itsel
or the mortgage incumberet
land-although they perform nj
labor or service upon it, never
theless grow rich; to them
whether in rent or in interest
comes the wealth acquired b,
the monopoly of land.
whether the land thus mon
opolized be withheld from us,
for mere purposes of specula
ton, or rent be charged for its
use, in either case the owner o
the soil need perform no service
upon it; he can sit by in idleness
while his boards grow; the lant
increases in value with tn,
growth of the community, ant
rents or interest are paid because
of its necessity to the commun
ity. Seasons of speculation
which lure the laboring classes
into purchasing lands, succeeded
by periods of crises which com
