THE TINES WOOL PULLING.

Editor Herald: The Times in its
Sunday issues quotes approvingly what
the Pasadena Star says on the importa-
ton of wool. 1t says: Under the Will
son tariff we are importing 1875, 900, 900
more pounds of wool annually than for
merly." Now. if the United States Sta
tistical Abstract Is the best authority
we deny the fact. The importattons of
wool for 1S95,under the Wilson bill, were
191, ,226,243 pounds, while the importa-
tions for 1893, under the Mckinley bill,
were l72,433.S3S pounds, leaving an ex-
cess in one year under the Wilson bill
of 1S,792.4O5 pounds, against the claim
made by the Star of 125, 900, 900 (see Uni
ted States Statistical Abstract, page
243). Now. this is about as near the
truth as many Republican papers can
get, when they gather their statistics
from newspaper reports. The Times in
its issue of Sunday, in an article headed
"A Two-edged Sword" says: Work
ing under the Wilson tariff as we are
now, we are importing from England,
Saxony. the Argentine Republic and
Australia total of not far from 125, ,0O0,-
600 pounds. each and every year. Now,
as only 1S,792,405 pounds more Of wool
came in in 1895 under the Wilson tariff
than came in under the Mckinley tariff
in 1893, it shows that under a free wool
tariff we only imported about one
fourth of pound to each Individual in
the United States, over the importations
under the Mckinley tariff.
The production Of wool in the United
States in 1893 was 3O3, 900, 900 pounds,
while we consumed that year Al, 1923, ,343
pounds, thus showing that the United
States had to draw on the outside world
that year for 16s, ,123,343 pounds of wool.
AS we do not grow enough wool to clothe
our people, we owe it to the great mass
of the poor that they should have raw
wool as cheap as possible, though It
may rob few sheep herders Of part
of their profits

HANNA'S FLAG ORDER

It Is the order of Hanna, McKinley's
boss and owner, that every man in the
United States who is loyal to the best in
terests Of the trusts, monopolies and
money syndicates shall display the
Stars and Stripes on his place of business
and residence tomorrow, and where
two or three or more can be gathered
together it is requested that speech
or two be made telling how every
Bryan man in the land is thief, trait
or, a communist and an anarchist.
1t Is especially requested, however,
that no reference be made to the way
workingmen are being threatened with
immediate expulsion from the employ
ment of the industries if they do not vote
for Mckinley. 1t is to be hoped, also,
that no mention of the fact will be made
that Major Mckinley was an enthusias-
tic free silver man from the time he
entered public life until year ago.
1t is Hanna's idea to make it appear
in the display Of the old flag that the
supporters Of Bryan have contempt for
the nations banner, and that as mat
ter of patriotic sentiment they should
not be permitted to touch or handle the
Stars and Stripes. Mr.. Hanna is under
the impression that he owns the United
States and the people thereof, and that
whoever Is not for his man Mckinley is
a mortal enemy of the human family.
But on Wednesday next the big fat
Clevelander will hear news that will
make him wish he were a boy again.
William Jennings Bryan will be the next
president of the United States, Hanna S

A PROTECTION HUMBUG

Major Mckinley continues to deal in
tariff fallacies when addressing indus
trial wage-earners. and he peddles them
out as though they would be taken as
gospel truths just because he hands
them around. Yesterday he took occa-
sion to try and make a delegation of
workingmen believe that a very much
higher tariff was needed to cover the
difference between the wage schedule
of Europe and what would be just and
proper wages for them, but his talk was
a string of falsehoods from start to fin
ish.
1t so happens that the result of the
investigation of Senator Mills of this
very matter is obtainable. Senator
Mills took the census Of 1890 and the
tariff duties prevailing in that year,
which was under the act of 1888, as the
basis Of his reckoning. In this connec-
tion it Is proper to state that the Nc
Kinley law advanced the customs du-
ties of 1890 from per cent to over 40
per cent, and that the schedule of the
Wiison-Gorman act, which is now in
operation, is not materially different
from the one the Mckinley act super
seded. Therefore, the following figures
are substantially correct and applicable
to the present schedule of tariff rates.
Workingmen should study this exhibit
carefully, the more SO because Nc
Kinley wants to give the articles of
manufacture named even greater pro-
lection, and thus still further widen the
difference between the cost of labor in
production and tariff duties:
In one ton of steel rails the labor cost
is 50; the tariff is 1914.
In s10O worth of cutlery the labor cost
is $44.24; the tariff is SILL.
In 800 worth of mats and mating the
labor cost is 1890; the tariff is $3.50.
In 500 worth of silk piece goods the
labor cost is $22.54; the tariff is $50.
In 500 worth of cigars and cigarettes
the labor cost is $20.S5; the tariff is
$685.
In 500 worth Of wooden or worsted

oths the labor cost is s2o.s5; the tariff

cloths the labor cost is s20s5; the tariff
is $4,000.
In 500 worth Of pottery the labor cost
is $54.96; the tariff is $50.
In 500 worth of pearl buttons the la
Dor cost is 1896; the tariff is S143.61.
In $100 worth Of tannin the labor cost
is 1864; the tariff $119.47.
In 500 worth of coal the labor cost is
from $40 to $50; the tariff is SIS.
In 500 worth of cotton goods the Ia
Dor cost is $24.24; the tariff is $570S.
In 500 worth of linen the labor cost
is $500; the tariff is $685.
In one ton of pig iron the labor cost Is
$1.50; the tariff is $6.72.
In one ton of bar iron the labor cost
is $4.57; the tariff Is $52.9S.
Nearly if not quite every one of
the above articles are being sold in
Europe at lower prices than the manu-
facturers over there can produce them.
1t would seem, therefore, that the tariff
is high enough. and that wages were
too low in this country. The greatest
labor swindling humbug Of the time
is the Mckinley Hanna tariff scheme.
