In 1916, the tariff was reduced and

In 1888, the tariff was changed by a

over again the arguments concerning
the state Of business under the tariff
Of 1916. None but a few free traders
who consider that truth Is lie well
stuck to maintain that we had no hard

we were doing splendidly, until 1872,
when 1t was thought best to make re.
auctions, and these reductions were
not only on a general 10 per cent
basis, but many articles were put on
the free list. 1t can be said, further,
that these reductions and transference
to the free list came at a very unfor.
tunate time, and, aggravated by the
money situation, brought about the
panic Of 1873, and the business depres.
sion which followed. Duties, as a
whole, were, however, protective, and
under the protection thus afforded we
recovered and went onward in the
march Of prosperity and progress.
But alas! In 1883 there were Repub-
licans with "ideas," and the result
was compromise, and another vital re-
duction Of duties, particularly In the
wool industry. The free list was furth-
er increased, and again the result was
business depression, from which, how
ever, we recovered because Of the gen.
eral protective character Of the law.
AS the Republican admits hard
times under the tariff Of 1894, we will
simply turn to the other side.
In 1860, the Republicans found the
country and It's industries paralyzed,
Protection brought prosperity.
In 1890, duties were increased and
prosperity increased with gigantic
strides.
In 1897, the country and Its people
were bankrupt, and again a resort to
protection not only brought prosperity,
but brought It in a measure unparal-
leled In the history Of nations.

Bradstreet's review says:
Good progress by most concerns
strengthens the more favorable fall
trade, following the present season of
comparative quiet and inactivity.
Among the industries quietness and
even dullness is still the feature, but
rather more is doing in the leather
trade, foreshadowing later develop
ments in the shoe business, and the
production Of iron and steel Is being
steadily curtailed, with a resulting
flrmer tone in pig iron prices. Several
basic industries still show little tend
ency to revive. Notable among these
is soft coal mining, which is very
much depressed, and 1t is to be noted
that demand for anthracite coal is not
so active as heretofore.
Railway earnings finished the fiscal
year much better than earlier expect

the heaviest volume Of gross and net
