A TIN PLATE DEMONSTRATION.

A gentleman calls our attention to an
article in Bradstreets of Nov. % on
the British Tin Plate Industry" as es-
tablishing the fact that tin plate prices
are not affected by the tariffs and as
an admission, from an authoritative
source, of the wisdom of the protection
to tin plate given by the act of 1890.
The article is mainly based on an ed
itorial in the London Iron and Steel
Trades Review, commenting on the de-
mand of the Welsh tin plate workers
for the establishment Of the wage
scale of 1874. Among the reasons cited
why this is impossible the Review goes
fully into the change brought about
by the Introduction Of tin plate making
in this country. 1t notes the increase
The Saint Paul globe., 1896-12-09

in 1896 of 5S per cent in production
over that of 1895 and the accompanying
decline Of imports, and concludes that
it is "arrant folly" on the part of the
Welsh workers to persist in their de-
mand for increased wages. The man
ner of treatment gives the impression
that Bradstreet's- adopts the views of
the journals it quotes, and the whole is
presented to us as evidence that the
increase Of the tax in the act of 1890
from l cent to 20 cents a pound was
the means OF establishing the tin plate
industry here .snna +
In Bradstreet's of Dec. a corre-
spondent presents the same facts in
rebuttal of this assumption that the
G b e has presented on several occa-
sions. He shows that the market price
here closely followed the tariff changes,
the price just prior to the passage of
the act of 1890 being made in antici-
patton Of the increase of the tax. We
have shown from the treasury reports
how the reduction of 1 cent a pound
in 1894 was Immediately followed by an
equal reduction in the market price
OF domestic plate. This fact and the
other more significant one that "the
tin plate industry in the United States.
which halted under the highest rate.
has actually developed rapidly since the
reduction to lower rate, he points out.
!, H.
the tariff of 1890 compelled American
metal workers to pay at least $5O. 900, :
OO0 more than their tin plates were
worth, and by the time the burden
reached the consumers it was much
greater than that
We have shown that the only reason
why tin plate was not made in this
country prior to 1890 was the protec-
tion afforded the steel sheets that form
It's oase, an obstacle that the increased
rate Of the Mckinley bill on tin plate
did not wholly overcome 1t was the
reduction in the protection afforded the
