THE TARIFF AND THE TRUSTS

- ONGRESSMAN PAYNE of New York has
1 contributed to the current number of the In
- ternatonal Monthly a review of the relation
of trusts to tariffs in this country and in the prin-
cpa nations of Europe The article is directed to an
examination of the arguments of those who hold that
trusts the outcome of protective tariffs that they
more numerous ard more powerful in this coun-
try than elsewhere and that the best means of break
ing such monopolies as they establish is to expose
them to the competition of free trade.
Mr. Payne points that the protective system has
built up the industries of the United States has es-
tabished them upon basis of home competition has
stimulated American mechanical skill and energy
that by far the foremost industrial nation
the globe, and has raised workingmen to
standard of living far higher than is enjoyed by the
workers OF any other people. He cites many illus
trations of the good effects of protection in develop
ing in this country important industries that could
never have been maintained here under system OF
free trade By reason OF the profits assured to indus
try through the tariff there has arisen competition
among manufacturers engaged in those industries
and the result has been general lowering of prices
to consumers without lowering wages.
Having thus set forth the benefits of protection he
proceeds directly to the question Of the relation of
tariffs to trusts He furnishes long array of facts
gathered from consular reports showing that trusts
exist in every important nation in the world despite
the variation in their tariffs They exist and flourish
where there free trade as we'll as where there is
protection. Great Britain, for example, has an al
most unlimited freedom of trade and yet as Mr.
Payne says: Next to Germany Great Britain seems
to lead the world in the extent to which its industries
are under the control of trusts These combinations
are so frequent there to excite little attention
or interest They control almost every branch and
kind of industry. To give any detailed account of
their extent the various branches of manufacture
they control would require more space than is ac-
corded to magazine article. These trusts are or
ganzed under the incorporation laws and also as
combination of many firms. The fact that all ar
cles covered by trusts in Great Britain imported
free of duty would to indicate that the tariff in
Great Britain is not the mother of trusts"
The conclusion of the whole argument is this: "a
protective tariff tends foster and build up com

launched in particular business great or small, is

BRITAIN'S FOOD SUPPLY.

A | recent meeting of the National Union of
N Conservative Clubs in Great Britain there was
adopted resolution declaring: THAT for the
better security OF the nation Parliament should
slider what measures be taken for the preserva-
ton and continuance of our food supply in case of
complications with other powers"
To Americans the resolution may not mean much,
but in Great Britain it is taken as preliminary step
toward campaign of education in favor of protect
ing British agriculture The object of the resolution
is to get committee appointed to investigate the
food supplies of the country 1t is believed the in
vestgation will disclose the serious danger Of star
vation in which many thousands of people in Great
Britain would be placed by war which would
threaten her supremacy the sea and interfere with
the importation of food With such showing, based
upon official statistics, the agrcuturists will go be-
fore the country and ask for protective tariff on
wheat and other foodstus sufficiently high to render
profitable their cultivation at home
programme of that kind has to be approached
cautiously. The British have come to regard free
trade with something like superstitious reverence
and any direct attack upon would doom to defeat
the candidate who made it Moreover tariff duty
on wheat and farm produce generally would be tax
on bread and meat. 1t would be literally what the
German workingmen calling the new German
tariff, ga hunger tax" The British workingman
would not support it for day, unless it can be proven
to him that he the risk of starvation in case of
if he do not consent to pay the cost of food
raising at home.
This is perhaps as good time as any to make such
appeal for return to the corn laws The British
people are by sure of themselves as they
were few years ago. Many of the manufacturers
whose predecessors led the free trade movement un-
der the leadership of Golden and Bright are begin
ming to feel the need of protection for their own in
dustres, and consequently will be much inclined
to listen favoraby to the plea of the landowners than
they few years ago
The cautiousness with which any suggestion of
tariff duties is approached shows there party in
Great Britain willing as yet to include protection in
its political programme but none the less the move
ment toward resumption of protection is unms-
taxable The number of those who frankly declare
for it is increasing, and it would seem to be mat
ter OF but comparatively few years when one party
or the other will make it an issue and win.

OUR MONUMENT FUNDS.

OAN FRANCISCO has undertaken by voluntary
subscription to erect two monuments, to
- Lincoln and one to Mckinley. These enter
prises OF patriotism should be kept in mind during the
holiday gift giving season. Why should not each one
in proportion to his means contribute something of
his holiday money to both of the funds which
designed for the double purpose of attesting our
veneration for the martyred Presidents and of adorn-
ing our city with artistic memorials?
The Mckinley fund is growing apace. 1t has al
ready reached very nearly the of $3o,ooo The
Lincoln fund has not yet been so we'll supported
though equally deserving. There is of course rea-
for the difference in the popular contributions to
the two enterprises. The death of Mckinley is still
acutey felt as the supreme tragedy of the year. The
hearts of all still vibrating with personal memo
res of the President who so cruelty shot down in
the very midst of an assembly of the people whom
his craftsmanship had helped to render prosperous
On the other hand the memory of Lincoln has be-
come weakened by the lapse of time He is not
part of the life OF this generation as Mckinley was
and hence there is no such sense of personal loss
when we recall his death. Naturally the people fol-
low the stronger impulse, and their contributions
have been mainly to the fund designed to erect a
monument to the President who is personally remem
bered
We ought to have each of these funds completed
as soon as possible little contribution to each
would be no heavy burden upon any one at this glad
season of the year Where all give something no one
need give much The gifts, moreover would not be
for toys soon to be broken for presents for a
holiday gladness, but would remain in the city
as permanent additions to it's artistic and patriotic
treasures. We have undertaken the two monuments
Let MS fulfill Our undertaking.

lives there several months with his fam
lily, then moves away taking with him his
family and household effects making his
home elsewhere for a year or even six
months, he forfeits his rights to the
homestead. Temporary absence to earn q
living does not break the continuity of
residence, for man may absent himself
nVe months in the aggregate each year to
earn money to improve the homestead.
The law is that if it is proved to the
satisfaction of the land department that
a settler has changed his residence or
abandoned the land embraced in his

A DISSOLVING CABINET.

FSPITF President Roosevets announcement
that he would carry out the policy of Nc
L. Kinley and despite his earnest efforts made
at the time he took office to induce McKinleys Min
iters to remain and assist him in the task the Cabi-
ret is dissolving rapidly. If all reports from Wash
ington be true it probable there will be virtually II
rot absolutely new Cabinet in office before the close
OF this session OF Congress
Rumo- has been busy with stories of discord be-
tween the President and the Cabinet officers. 1t
has been said that several of them do not like his
methods OF doing business Reports have been given
out that this or that Secretary displeased because
the President confers directly with subordinaes when
he wishes information concerning certain phases of
work in their department instead of making his
inquiries through the Secretary himself Some of
these stories and reports may have partial founda
on but il is safe to say all such are exaggerated and
none are wholly true. Even should all the predicted
changes in the Cabinet take place. there would be
occasion for resorting to such rumors to find
planation of them.
1t is well known that at the close OF the first term
OF Mckinley there were common reports that there
would be a great many changes in the Cabinet at
the beginning of the new term. These reports were
founded upon the we-known desire of several mem
bers of the Cabinet retire that time Secretary
Gage, for example, remained only because of the
gent desire Of his Chief and there others who
were influenced in the same way 1t is natural that
these men should not feel the obligation to
Roosevelt as to their former chief Their private in
terests are large and they may we'll feel that will
be no than what is right if they turn the
public service over to the new administration and set
about looking after their affairs.
The relations of a President to his Cabinet are
necessarily very close There ought TOT exist between
them something of personal congeniality as well
of political harmony Under such circumstances the
retirement of members of the Cabinet does imply
any real antagonism between them and the Pres-
dent
1t has been the clear intention of the opposition
arouse factional strife the Republican party if it
can. Almost every cay brings story Of dis
cord between the President and some prominent Re-
publican. We have been told that he has disagreed
with Hanna, with Platt and with Fairbanks of In
diana Whenever a Cabinet officer intimates a de-
sire to return to private life, or a Senator does not
OBTAIN exactly the patronage he wishes, the story
goes forth that the President is alternating his party
There is no reason why the intelligence Of the coun-
try should be disturbed by such reports The present
Cabinet may dissolve quickly as some of the
Washington dispatches forecast but the harmony be-
tween the Republican majority in Congress and the
administration will continue unbroken.

incentive to the holders of the abundant capital
which now exists in this country to engage in sim
liar branch of business. This is having its effect
every day. The main hope Of destroying
trusts, or rendering their operations harmless, in
the competition which results from the natural laws
of trade, fostered when needed by the protective
tariff"
While there is nothing in this argument that is
to those who have studied the subject the article has
yet special value because of the array of facts
brought to sustain it 1t is also pertinent to the
time since under the leadership of men like Con-
gresham Babcock there has been started a move
ment to break down the protective system under the
pretense that by such action it will be possible pre-
vent the formation of monopolistic trusts So long
as that agitation goes on clear presentation of the
truth concerning the tariff and the trusts cannot be
too frequently made. Our industries rest upon pro-
lection, and If that be withdrawn may destroy our
domestic trusts indeed, but nearly all local industries
will go with them, and we shall fall into the hands of
foreign trusts against which no home competition
will avail anything
