The advocates OF protection have
made decided gains in the earnest pop
ular discussions of the tariff question
covering period of two or three years
last passed. / have witnessed the
changes, and know of the truth Of the
statement l make. In view of this
growing sentiment, fostered by the in
dustrial development of the south on
every hand, the tariff reformers, the
political heirs of the former free traders
of the south, are now proclaiming
everywhere that the financial issue is
the only one before the country, that
the tariff is no longer an issue-that
was settled, they claim, for years to
come by the last congress-and the
only live issue is sound money" or
free coinage Of silver, and this issue is
given undue prominence in order TO
divert attention from the tariff and the
benefits of the protective system, which
In our section are understood better
than ever before.
Now, my object in writing is to ex-
press the hope that your readers win
notbe deceived by this argument, which
Is a miserable malxeshift, y but that
you viii hold, as yon have a right to do,
that our incongruous and defective
revenue laws shall be revised by the
friends and not the enemies of protec-
ton. Keep the tariff to the front and
the cause win receive increasing sup
port from this southern country.

The diamond drill. (Crystal Falls, Iron County, Mich.) 1887-1996, 1895-07-20

Statistics show when and why the Out
put Was Checked.
The statistics Of iron production tell
sad story of tho damage inflicted ON
home industry by the free trade agita-
ton that attended the election Of Presi-
dent Cleveland and free trade tariff
congress In 1922, and eliminated ia the
passing Of the German bill In 1894.
In 1890 the United States produced
o,2os, 7oS gross tons Of pig iron. In 1894
the production fell to o,057. 1855 gross
tons.
Under protection the production of
pig iron had increased with steady
strides until II attained the high figure
named in 1890. benetiting the whole
country, south as well as north. All
this was inaccordance with the general
development OF our industries under
which progress was the normal con-
dition. Hence it might hayo been ex-
pected that the production Of pig iron
would have gone on satisfactorily, and
that II would have passed the 10, 900, 600
tons mark by this time. Instead. the
figures quoted show that our furnaces
produced 2,54b,3l5 gross tons less In
1894 than they did in 1900.
What did this shrinlxage mean? It
meant less wages for the workmen; less
money for the shopkceper and farmer;
less demand for iron ore and coal 1t
meant less dividends for the capital in
vested; smaller inducements to develop
iron lands, and heavy decrease in the
general wealth Of the country.
In the south, where iron ore IL so
abundant, these facts, which concern
the whole country, should meet with
special consideration. The addition OF
2,545,8i5 gross tons to the iron smelted
in the south in 1894. would have made
places blossom into prosperity where
gaunt poverty prevailed and American
workmen, able, honest and industrious,
sought employment In vain.
