The report Of the subcommittee on
reciprocity OF the committee on ways
and means makes instructive reading.
II shows in dollars and cents the benefits
derived by the producers Of the United
States, especially the agricultural ones,
from the Blaine reciprocity provisions Of
the tariff of 1890. 1t shows also the in
jury done to those producers BY the re-
peal Of those salutary provisions and the
abrogation Of the commercial agreements
made under them. The repeal OF the
reciprocity clauses was one OF the most
indefensible acts OF the Democrats. II
was in violation Of their own principles.
They claimed in 1892 to be in favor OF
free trade When they assumed control
they found on the statute books law
providing for free trade between this
country and others, as far as a large
number OF important articles were con-
eerped. They repealed It. That law
was based on the theory OF the free in
ternational exchange OF non-competltiye
products Thus the Latin-Am rican
states produce coffee, sugar, tropical
fruits and other commodities which this
country does not produce at all or in in
sufficient quantities. The United States,
on the other hand, is a great exporter OF
-four. salt meats and manufactured ar
ticles which the Latin-American states
cannot supply themselves with. The
Democrats, by their Wilson, German law,
broke up a beneficial free trade which
they found established and which had
nearly doubled, as compared with 1856
the volume Of American exports to South
and Central America and the West In
dies. They substituted for II an ap-
proximation to their idea Of what con-
stitutes free trade That Is, the free
admission of competitive articles. While
the free trade Of Blaine reciprocity
eheapened the price OF necessaries Of life,
Ike sugar. to workingmen and farmers
and opened new markets to the products
Of both, the free trade Of the Democrats
closed those markets to them. At the
same time It cut down the wages OF
American working1nen by sharpening the
edge Of European competition. Less
protection was given them against tho
low wage scale Of foreign producers. So
inevitably their wages sank. The people
have come to understand this. Hence
fhey demand reciprocity and more pro-
tection. They cannot get them now, but
they win as the result Of the next cleo
ton. Tt was useless to attempt 10 pass
a reciprocity measure at this time. A
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS senate would defeat
It. But the facts set forth in Congress-
