The Wooleu Trade.

The announcement is made from the
bureau of statistics of the treasury de-
partment that the income of the treas
ury department during January was
swelled up by the heavy importatioBs
of wooden goods but that the importa-
tions in the future will not be SO heavy
as has been expected in some quarters,
because foreign manufacturers will
not be willing To sell continually at a
loss"
From this it appears that the wooden
trade in this country has not been sat
isfactory either to foreign manufac-
turers or TO the American producers,
because if the foreign manufacturers
have been selling at a loss. the Ameri-
cap manufacturers must have been
selling at a still greater loss, the rate
of wages in this country being higher
than abroad.
This then is the result of free trade:
not only has ii ruined our producers of
wool in the United States. but il is
running the foreign manufacturers of
wooden goods and must be doing the
same for the American manufacturers,
unless labor employed in our wooden
mills is working at a lower rate than
labor engaged in the same business
costs abroad

The Dry Goods Trade.

In d certain country town there are
five general dealers in dry goods.
These men were not backward in Civ
ing me an account of their sales dur
ing the past four years. One of them
reports that in 1891 he made sales to
the value of ST., 6s3. 81. profits. 1897 iS;
in 1892, sales s20 $50. SO. profits ST, 7l2 50;
in 1893, sales SIS, 427. %, profits "a, s12.37:
in 1894, sales sll. 972. So, profits 80, 7?9. Us.
These figures plainly show how the
German tariff and Cleveland malad-
ministration have worked against the
business interests of onl y one merchant,
while the other four, though their bust
ness is not quite SO large in volume,
show a decrease of from 22 to 81 per
cent in 1893 from that of 1892: and Il
decrease in 1894 Of from IS To 81 per
cent. from that done in 1898. or de-
crease in volume OF from 80 TO 6s per
cent from that Of 1892. which they all
report to have been the most pros
porous in the past twenty years, while
1894 was the most disastrous to the
dry goods business since the great
panic of 1873.
Such is the result of free trade adj
ministration. which the peopie 50 fool
ishlv inaugurated in 1892, when they
elected "A democratic ma joritv to con-
gress together with democratic presi-

The Raisin Trade.

The grape growers of California,
under the protection afforded by the
Mckinley tariff, built up an enormous
trade in raisins, the climate and soil in
certain parts of the state being es-
culture. Practically there was no COM
petition in the American market, ex-
cept the raisin grown in Spain, against
which the Californians were protected
to the extent of 21f cents per pound.
The free traders, however, thought it
inadvisable to give the raisin men
chance to make living, and perhaps
pay for their farms and acquire COM
potency in years to come, so the rate
was reduced under the German tariff
to ! 4 cents per pound.
The result, of course, il is easy to
ascertain. Where, during the early
months of 1894. the imports of foreign
raisins were larger than during the
early months of 1893. this has changed
since the passage of the German tariff,
and as result the total imports during
1884, amounted to j,Ss9,5 l7 pounds, as
compared with Is, 740. 30? pounds dur
ing the whole of ls93-an increase of
149. 600 pounds during 1894. the increase
during the month of December alone
being @G2 900 pounds.
But this is not all The larger guam
tity of raisins imported during 1894
actually cost SCI, 900 less money than
the smaller quantity imported during
1893. the average price during the lat
ter year, 1893, being - cents per
pound. as compared with 4.01 cents,
when was the average price during
1854. If the California raisin producer
is unable to compete in the New York
market with 4-cent Spanish raisins he
might Just as well root mp his vine
yards because he will get no relief
from the present free trade administers
ton But he may be able to worry
along 10y getting into debt until ade-
quate protection is restored in 1897.
