denounced by the democrats as calcu-
lated 20 shut out foreign trade, but the
fact that the aggregate value OF our
imports was constantly increasing
while II was in operation seems TO con-
tradict the assumption. The Wilson
bill has had the effect Of encouraging
the imports of manufactured goods.

Purposes
OF the hundreds OF thousands of cat
tie brought into Kansas City alive
every year, and either taken out dead
or not taken out at all In any recog-
nizable form, IL is to be presumed that
the majority have horns. These horns
are not part of the frozen, canned,
corned or otherwise preserved ear
casses OF beef that leave the city in the
unending procession of yellow freight
cars. Neither are they piled up any
where in the packing house district as
they used TO pile up buffalo bones out
west awaiting the coming of the agent
who bought them for fertilizers Then
what becomes of the tons of horns that
are brought into Kansas City every
year through the medium of the stock
yards?
In the first place. II is not TO be sup
posed that so utilitarian n business as
that carried on within the walls of the
big packing houses would suffer an inn
portant element 10 go TO waste. Some
one has said that when a steer enters
the doors OF "A Kansas City packing
house there Is no part of him that Ia
not put TO some important use, except,
perhaps, tho animals expiring below.
Even that may be utilized In time. At
any rate, the horns of a Texas steer
form no uncomfortable part of his
fighting weight, and IL they could not
be put 10 some remunerative use the
packers would soon insist upon having
more steer and less horn.
Years ago, when Missouri was little
more than densely wooded wilder
ness, and Kansas did not exist, there
man invariably possessed. His hut
might be lowly and OF unhewn logs.
his bunk n miserable makeshift, and
his chairs and tables of the utmost
simplicity. but by the door there hung
the inevitable gun rack In the shape
of a pair OF branching antlers, and
across these reposed the settlers
trusty rifle. In many cabins there
were, perhaps. several magnificent
pairs of antlers, and others could bc
had for the exercise of n little skill
and courage.
But the passage OF time and tho adj
vnncing civilization have changed all
this What might then be had almost
for the asking has become an expen-
sive luxury The rifle OF the settler
has given place TO the umbrella or cane
OF the modern citizen. His primitive

the demand for rack is still active

While the free trade papers jubilate
over the restorations voluntarily made
in the wage schedule of some factories,
they invariably forget to state that
such increase does not make the rate
OF pay now received by the wage
earners equivalent to their earnings
In 1891 Another point TO which they
fail To refer is that, where wages have
been advanced, IL is very often the case
that such an advance was made TO far
fewer people than were employed in
1892. A firm may then have been employ
ing 500 hands, and even II the same rate
of wages should now be paid IL is often
the case that only $50 hands are en-
ployed. What then has become of the
other $50? Has some other industry
made such marked progress under
tariff reform MS to be able Co absorb
these idlers? IL so, why have not tho
free trade editors recorded the fact? II
Is most likely that the $50 have either
left the country or are tramping around
still looking for that job which they
had before they voted for President
Cleveland and tariff reform.

This showing Is unanswerable. In
1892 and 1898 imports reached high
water mark unden the Mckinley tariff.
II sugar can be deducted, the imports
OF the dutiablo manufactures were In
the aggregate larger in these two
fiscal years than ever before In our his
tory. The total imports OF dutiable
articles were greater in the fiscal years
of 1890 and 1892; but sugar paid duty
ia those years and was free under the
Mckinley tariff. The mere aggregate
of dutiablc imports in tho FIRST six
month of 1892 was Se03, 900, 900; 1879.
S2l1, 600, 900; and in 1895, deducting
sugar, Si60, OO0. 600. The total of duti-
able manufactured articles coming in
was therefore about three-quarters of
what It was In 1892 and 1893, when
prices were higher, demand greater,
and the tariff was nowhere cut SO as
to flood any ono manufacture. IL, how
ever, wool and other articles which
were free in the last six months. and
which were dutiable under the Nc
Kinley tariff has been about the same
in value within 10 per cent. as this ag-
gregate was in the first half of 1892
and 1893. Prices were. it must be re-
membercd, higher then. however; 80
that the volume or quantity of goods Is
larger, although the value Is about the
same
But how was il with the WOODEN
manufactures? Look at the compare
son above. In quantity, the past six
months have seen two and "a half times
as much wooden and worsted cloths
imported as in the first half OF 1892 and
1893, and in value twice as much. The
value per pound was 50. "a cents in 1892
and SLIGO cents in 1898, against G5.62
in is95-a significant proof that cheaper
goods are being imported now. In
dress goods the importation for the six
months have been 20 per cent. larger
than in 1893, 81 per cent larger than
in 1892 and ~ per cent. larger than in
1891.
In this period. also, American manu-
facturers have imported l00,628,257
pounds of foreign wool, against AZ, 49,
46i pounds in 1893, 44,062, 2ll pounds in
1892 and 33,494,591 pounds in 1901.
Taking the computation of domestic
wool and the weekly sales of wool and
the American manufacturers have
made a larger output of goods in the
past six months than in 1895 and 1893,
but they have made IL under "a stronger
competition than that of any other
manufacture. Cotton goods are well
protected. although imports have been
increased. Iron and steel manufac-
lures. outside OF tin plate, have scarce
ly felt foreign competition. Owing 10
extremely low prices in other nanufac-
lures, the effect of low duties has not
yet been felt in imports But on wool
competition has fallen with crushing
severity. Competitive imports in tho
most important lines Of wooden goods
have been increased two and one-half
fold Prices have been cut. Wages
have not advanced as In other manu-
features. August. also. has seen n
sudden sharp falling Off in the demand
for wooden goods. Unless there is a
revival in the market for woolens in

petition will be most serious. -Phila-
