per cent, the annual average for the
four years having been 1856 per cent
In the last year Of the Mckinley tariff
the duties collected were S12955S.S92
upon imported goods valued at S257-
645.703. In the first fiscal year of the
present tariff the sum collected in du-
ties was Sl4I901,21S upon goods valued
at S354271990. To quote the New
York Times. was the fan from 1856
per cent TO 4I-5 per cent. so great
that it marked q substitution of free
trade for projections If a tarin aver
asiuS 1896 per cent is protective. does
the protective quality disappear in q
tarin averaging 41.75 per cent?
Because wool and lumber were trans
ferred to- the free list. to the great adj
vantage of those and kindred indus
tries as events have fully proven. our
Republican contemporaries would have
their readers believe that the entire
tari1 was shifted from a protective to
Ia free trade basis. but when one goes
through the Ions list of dudable artl-
cles he finds. as we have shown. that
the average rate Of duty is stil 40
per cent. as against the Mckinley tar
in's 1880 per cent. and that the value
of the dudable goods imported during
the first fiscal year of the new tariff
)S3542u. 800 was less than the annual
average $3.50 s7L53D in the four years
of the tarin of Mckinley. The flood"
of dutiable imports rose to- S400,2S2.519
i'm that tariffs third year.
Moreover. i'm the present tariff there
are. as there were i'm the tariff which
preceded it. many duties so high that
they are prohibitory. Tt is merely an
exhibition of partisan dishonesty and
absurdity to- assert THAT protection"
was cut out of the tari0 when the aver
age duty upon The long list of products
actually imported was reduced from
4S66 to- 4l.15 ner cent.
I'm this connection the Register be-
ueves q word TO- interested manuf0ct-
urers would not be amiss i'm pointing
ont that it is always good to- leave We'll
enough alone. Under the present tar
if every branch of manufacture has
ample. or more than ample protection
from foreign competition. The people
have demanded q greater reduction of
duties. but they are contented with the
present tariG. and are willing to allow
.it to remain the law to- escape further
agitation of the subject with the accom-
panyiug embarrassment and distress to
business. The people are slow to an
ger. but should higher tariff taxes on
their necessaries of life be forced upon
them the greedy tariff moDopolies
would find that they are also terrible
i'm their wrath, and that when they
start to reform an abuse they go the
whole length. If anything shall pre-
cipitate absolute free trade upon this
country it win be the intolerable and
Unsuitable greed of the tariff cormo-
rants. who do not appear TO know the
meaning of the word. Enough.
