would practically permit foreign vessels
to engage in the coasting trade. The same
conditions, to wit, lower cost of construc-
ton, less wages in manning vessels, etc.,
that have ruined American deep-water
shipping, would thus become an entering
wedge in similarly affecting the shipping
of the coast.
Further, should the American mill
owner, under any improbaDle future con-
ditions, be able to continue his business att
as low cost as is possible in British Co.
lumbia Through governmental assistance
in the matter of low rentals of crown
lands, etc. he would. in the matter of
shipping his product coastwise be handi-
capped by the obligation to employ only
American vessels, while. his British
Colum bia competitors have the choice of
all flags. :: /.
"It would appear, therefore, evident that
on this coast at least (and 1 lopine that SIM
liar conditions may exist on the extreme
Eastern Atlantic coast. where Maine man.
ufacturers would be brought into. competl-
tion with those of the provinces), the
opening of American markets to British
Coum bia mills means destruction to both.
American mill interests, already depressed
to the lowest limit by oyerproductlon, and
the growing shipbuildlng industry on this
coast. :.
tWell understanding the usual method
of our foreign competitors, even the
handling of this. business would be in
their hands: Offices representing Eng
'lish mills would be established in SAN
Francisco and other coast cities, supplied
by foreign clerks, and with. the manufac-
ture, freightfng, handling and distribution
in the hands of our competitors the only
American competition with the trade
would be the paymentSof the bill, and it
does not seem possible, therefore, that
from those who by their investments have
added to the taxable wealth of the country
and thus contributed largely to the reve-
nues by which the State. and Nation are
supported should be taken the only trade
they have and the same. handed over TO
non-eitizens who would not pay one dime I

Having shown how the wool industries
of the United States have been Prostrated
by the Bryan-W1lson bill, the free-traoe
policy formulated by Wilson and cham
pioned by "the boy orator of the Platte, ="
it is now proposed to show, in series OF
articles, how the lumber business OF Amer
lea has'suffered under free trade, how for
eign pauper labor depresses prices, and
how the policy ably championed by NC
Kinley afforded ample protection TO the
largest business in America
1t should be fully understood at the out
set that the lumber business of the United
States stands in magnitude ahead OF all
other pursuits What is meant by this?
First. that its invested capital is larger
than that invested in any other pursuit.
Then: .:next TO this, its product or annual
OUTPUT is the largest, it employs more
people and has more establishments than
anv. other in the form of mills and fac
tories. -

country that a business of first magnitude
ought to have protection against any,
thing that threatens to annihitate' it or
tends to reduce the profit accruing there

It is a notorious fact that on the Pacific
Coast the milling and lumber men are in
q bad way. In Mendocino and Humboldt
counties there are thousands of men who
know nothing about any occupation but
numbering. -:

is a picture of the most important busi-
ness Of the Union under the policy of free
