Free Trade in Paper.

There is no industry the devel-
opment of which illustrates the
benefits of the Protective policy
more than that of the manufacture
of paper. Every editor in the
country must recognize the fact
that with development in man
ufacturing prices have gradually
decreased. At the same time
the United States has become the
greatest paper manufacturing ma
ton in the world. Recently. how
ever, n proposition has been intro
duced into Congress by II free
trade Congressman, to place new
paper and pulp OF the free list.
1t is but natural hat there should
be some following to this PROPOSE
ton, both ON account of the free.
trade element in Congress and the
ignorance of IA large portion of the
sail minority. There are however
some facts in this connection that
are worthy of serious considera
ton.
On account of the great produc.
ton Of spruce in Canada and the
never failing water supply, Cana.
da, with free-trade would become
the paper producing nation and
our industry. comprising almost
one thousand mills, would have to
either go out of business or move
to Canada. The author of the
bill to place newspaper and pulp
III the free list probably did not
know hal the duty upon paper
from the United States TO Canada
is % per cent. and that our duty
upon paper coming from Canada
is equivalent to 10 per cent. He
also probably did not know that in
certain provinces in Canada, an
internal tax, known as a stump
age tax is placed upon spruce,
which amounts to 100 cents per
ton of pulp or per cord of wood
exported TO the United States.
Frec-trade in imported paper, the
Canadian 'stmnpage tax upon
spruce. and the uuty upon paper
going into Canada would result in
the absolute transfer of the paper
industry to CANADA, thus building
up the most gigantic monopoly of
paper ever known. An increase
in cost of paper 10 the consumer
would follow as II matter of course,
In view of these facts, which are
so well understood 10y the greatest
consumers Of the product III this
country, it seems astonishing that
this should be singled out for
slaughter by frce-traders. 1t is
safe to say. however, that the bill
introduced for the abolition of
duty on newspaper and pulp will
never leave the Ways and Means
committee of the present Congress.

Always brands everything sent put from

There is the trick of the eye, the lines
around the mouth. certain peculiarities
about the walk and the wearing of the

man in words SO plain that he who run
may read. If she makes an honest man
she puts her brand all over him the up
