Reaching Ont for Foreign Markets

Reaching Ont for Foreign Markets.
1t was not until the restoration to
power of the party Of protection and a
stable currency inspired them with con-
fidence to rehabilitate their plants that
American manufacturers found them
selves in a position to go ahead at full

secured to them, they have taken heart
of grace to reach out for the foreign
market as well. Our English friends

AS is well known, the importations
during the four months were not nor
NAL, owing to the large importations
in anticipation of the passage of the
present tariff. Had the importatiens
been as large during the period stated
as they were in 1892, the revenue which
we would have received under the
rates of the present law would amount
to $1O2, 100000, or S6S, ,23G,2IS more than
the actual receipts.
1t may be urged. however, that this is
not a fair comparison, as the year 1892
was very prosperous year, and the
importations were accordingly large.
Take, therefore, the year 1896, when
business was suffering from depres-
sion. Had the importations during the
four months been as large as they were
the same four months of 1896, the re-
ceipts under the present law would
have amounted to $57,072,2S3, or so,
,sto
Taking the average OF the importa-
tions for the same four months OF 1892
and 1896, and applying the rates Of the
act Of 1897. the estimated receipts
amount to $69,574.1 .152, or an increase
of $50 5,099, $50 over the actual receipts.
The total excess of expenditures over
receipts during August, September, Oc-
t1.I. nd Nnunn,ltnp 1907 amounted
To $35, 1854, ,117.23. 1t will be seen, there
fore, that had the importatiOns been as
large during rhe four months as the
average of the importations for the cor
responding period of 1892 and 1896, the
receipts would have been $15,653 In
excess of expenditures, and had the i'm
portations been as large as they were
in 1892, the receipts would have ex-
ceeded the expenditures by So, go, ,254.
When the great volume Of anticipa-
tory impOrtations has been only par
TALLY reduced, there is no basis for ac-
curate estimates Of what the importa-
tions will amount to when normal con-
ditions shall have been restored. One
thing, however, Is reasonably certain,
and that is that, whether or not the
country reaches during 1898 the high
water mark of prosperity which pre-
vailed In 1892. 1t has risen out of the
slough OF depression in which the bust
ness interests fioundered from 1893 to
the close of 1896. A fair average be-
tween the high and low water gauges
Of the two periods named Will place us
| once more on safe high ground and will
realize the reasonable expectations of
those who framed the present tariff
law In full confidence that 1t would
prove successful alike as to revenue
