The threat Of protected capitalist
to close up shop unless the people
vote them protection, is an old dodge.
The manufacturers of pig iron, Of cot
ton ties, OF steel rails and steel billets,
all protested against Tree trade. We
were told that foreigners would de-
luge us with pauper-made products
Cotton ties were put on the free list
The other articles mentioned were
sufficiently protected Yet the for
eigner has not deluged this country
with cotton ties. On the contrary,
our manufacturers are deluging for
eign markets with them. We ship pig
iron to England, steel rails TO Canada
and Japan, wire nails TO all parts Of
Europe, and iron goods to all parts Of
the world. Yet we are threatened
with closed factories IL we do not vote
the manufacturers the right to charge
American customers more than foreign
customers.

EFFECT or rur WILSON ACT

While il Is not likely that the tariff
issue viii cut much figure in the cam.
paign this year, II is well enough to
keep in mind the true facts about the
present tariff act and its predecessor,
the Mckinley act This is all the
more necessary as certain Republican
speakers and newspapers have persis.
tentlY sought TO make the public be-
lieve, that the Wilson act under
which the country is now operating.
is responsible for the treasury embar-
rassments.
Starting with the year ise0. we End
that on June 20 there was a treasury
surplus Of siOa. s44, 4e6 shortly there
after the Mckinley act was passed.
June 30 1891, the surplus had been
reduced so that it stood s37. 239. 7C2. A
year later the surplus had shrunken
still more, so that IL stood s., PA, ,543.
Still McKinleyism was in force AZ.
ter another twelve months Of MeKin-
leyism the surplus stood on the 30th
OF June, 1898, at s., 341, GA
Thus under McKinleyism the surplus
has been reduced more thsn one hun
dred millions Of dollars Still Nc
Kinleyism was in force and remained
a law almost TO the end OF the next
fiscal year. For the year ending on
that date, to-wit, on the s0th Of June.
ls94, the surplus had disappeared alto
gether and ia its place was deficit
Of seventy-two millions Of dollars.
Then the Wilson act went into effect.
At the end OF twelve months, viz: on
the 50th OF June, 1895, the deficit had
been reduced to forty millions Of dol.
lars A. the end Of another year,
which we are rapidly approaching.
which will be the 3Oth Of June, 1896,
the deficit is officially estimated to be
about twenty-five millions, aud there
is every reason to believe that another
year will wipe out the deficit entirely.
This tendency OF the Mckinley act
TO produce a deficit and the tendency
Of the Wilson act to produce a surplus
is well shown in the following table,
which we take from the Kansas City
Times:

A Universal Census in 1900.
From the Pan Mall Gazette.

AT the last biennial meeting of the In
ternational institute held at Berne, a. COM
mittee was appointed al the instance OF
DR. Guillaume director of the statistical
office of the federal government of SwtZ-
erland to collect Information as to the
possibility Of effecting synchronous CEN
sus of each civilized country in the year
1900 and as to the extent TO which uni
forTnity might be introduced into the col
lection and tabulatiOn of the principal
data so as to promote the facility and
credibility of International comparison
The report agreed to by the appointed
committee, and adopted by the general as
ion of experts and statisticians in diff
ferent countries upon the above points,
for consideration by the committee at the
next meeting of the international statisti-
cal institute, in 1897, when the committee
will determine whether 1t shall recon-
mend to the institute to take any or what
action in the matter.
The approaching end of the nineteenth
century affords a suitable opportunity for
the different governments to come to some
understanding, with the object Of proceed
ing simultaneously In the year 1900 to a
universal census Of the population There
is no need to demonstrate the utility of
such an undertaking. which ought If pos
sible, to take place on the same day in
all countries. In any case this would as
sociate an important work with the cen
fury which will commence on the first
Of January, 1901, five years from now, and
an international enumeration OF the pop
ulation taken in an Identical form so far
as all the important points are concerned.
would prove interesting alike to ali the
governments and men of science. The d.
ficulties which such an under talxing must
encounter are great, but they are not
lnsuperable.

building BattIeshIps.
From the Pail Mall Gazette

From the FAN MAIL NTdZetIe.
Through the courtesy of some of the adj
miralty officials the press has been fur
nished with some stirring details of the
marvelously short time occupied at Chat
ham in the building of the Magnificent,
and at Portsmouth of the Majestic. The
construction of the Magnificent within
two years is said to be a record. Accord
ing to the information furnished the con-
struction of this battieship was begun on
Dec 49, 1893, she was launched on Dec 49,
1894, and she was commissioned en- Dec.
r. 1885. This is undoubtedly quick work,
but unless more than one great ship
builder is very much mistaken, there Is
more than one private yard In Great Bri-
tain able to do the work in as short a
time as, or, all things being equal in less
time than any royal dockyard can do 1t.
Take the Magnificent, for instance" said
one of the largest shipbuiders in the coun-
try to the Pail Mall Gazette represents
tive, land let us see what all that has
been said about recOrd-breaking amounts
TO. She was turned out of a royal dock
yard and, let us say, ready for sea in
two years. There is nothing surprising
in that. While she was on the stocks
the yard did nothing else. Every avail
they even worked double shifts. Besides
in royal dockyards, as much as three
months preliminary work is done before
an official start Is made. In royal dock
yards plans are approved at once, and
there is none of the waiting with which
private shipbuilders are so well acquaint-
ed. In building a battleship royal dock
yard gets about three months start of a
private yard That's a good deal to begin
with. Then. as / have said, they do moth
ing else until they launch the vessel. In
a private yard a ship of the same size
could easily be turned out in the same
length of time with a fair start, without
interfering with the other work of the
yard"
