Ihe opponents OF a protective tariff
contend that Ii csn be OF little, If anv.
benefit 10 the lumber mills OF Wash
1ngton because SO large part OF their
product Is sold abroad, and must be SO
sold tor a considerable time 10 come.
This argument Is plansable, as free
trade argument always Is, but it can
convince only those who VIII not in
Festgaie the matter carefully enough
TO understand all the facts about it.
says the Tacoma Ledger
While If is true that the big mills
In Western Washington sell most OF
their product abroad, at prices that
are fixed by the demand OF the pur-
chasing countries, and that they can
get DO direct benefit from the tariff
On lumber SO sold, 1t Is a fact that
their entire product cannot be sold to
these countries. 1t Is only the higher
and better grades that VIII bear the
long transportation What Is known
Is the rough lumber that must be
manufactured while filing these
foreign orders, must be sold at home
or It's value lost. In filing foreign
orders for 100000 feet the Tacoma
Mill company recently found it was
Obliged TO ent In the neighb0rhood OF
S,0O0! 900 feet. A market for three
eighths Of It's product then must be
found al home, and this fhree-eigh1hs
mnsf be sold al along the coast in
competition with lumber made in
British Columbia by unprotected
labor, and must compete not only
with the lower grades made by the
Canadian mills, but with the higher
grades as well Unless TINS large by
product can be sold, at least at The
cost OF manufacture and transporta-
fIOD, the foreign business cann0f exist
at all.
While our inland trade Is not large
Rt present, ii can never be large If our
manufacturers mnst o0mpete with
Canadian lumber in states like the
DakOtas, Nebraska, Kansas, Colorado,
Iowa and other treeless states, supplied
bv the Northern Pacihc. Union Pa
ci6e, the Burlington, Rock Island,
Missouri Pacific and their connecting
lines. This country would be much
more cheaply supplied from the forests
lying north OF the great lakes than
from the coast If IT was not for the
tariff. In the matter OF shingles the
difficulty would be still greater be
caRse their bulk counts against them
In transportation over long distances
The custom house statistics show thai
the importation of shingles has nearly
doubled since The Wilson biIl was en-
acted, and or mills have OF COURSE
lost the trade that has come from
abroad into the territory winch they
could have supplied
II is worth while TO remember that
the Interests OF Washington ID tins
important industry have been looked
alter In the tariff debate only by one
OF orr representatives., and thai Is
Senator Wilson. Neither Of onr mem
bers OF the lower h0use voted On the
bin when 1t WIS under consideration
there, and Senator Turner has repeat
edly declared ms oOnVsrsiOn 10 popn-
lism and his abandonment OF the re-
publican faith, of WHICH protection Is
