that no harm could come from 1t in the
way of increased burdens. the senate
provided that if the production did not
increase as was expected, the duty should
automatically cease. No one was sure
that the experiment would succeed There
had been failures before. The war duty
on tin-plates, terne-plates, and tagger's-
tin had been % per cent There had
been varying rates since then. The tar
iff' of 1878 had placed the duty on iron
coated with tim at IL cents pound,
but Secretary Fessendon, of the treas
ury department, decided that this did not
mean iron plates coated with tin, so by
departmental ruling the duty was placed
at 10 per cent under the head of emu
merated articles.
1t was at the instance of Senator Spoon
err that the experiment clause was in
serted in. the bill. and ample precautions
were taken to prevent the British manu-
facturers from rusing into the American
market with big importations and thus
defeat the purpose of the clause. It was
also provided that tinware made OF black
sheets and afterward coated with tin
should be accounted as tin-plate in the es-
innate of domestic production which was
necessary to make the duty a permanent
one. The Democrats demurred at this,
but the Republicans answered that this
was simply coating the iron after being
made up instead of before.
The tin-pIate duty narrowly escaped de-
feat in the house when it came up for
a separate vote, and it won out by only
one majority The canning industry was
firmly set against it, and the tinware
manufacturers were as much opposed to
it as the shoe manufactures is to a duty
on hides. Perhaps the one thing which
did more than any other to carry the
duty through the house was the alarm
that the British tin-plate manufacturers
manifested They saw in that duty the
death knell of their trade with America,
and unhesitatingly declared so. That
pleased many an American congressman.
and he voted for the duty. If the Brit
ish manufacturer had seemed Indifferent
he might yet beasending seven-tenths of
his tin to Amerka instead of Americs
being his principal competitor.
One of William NJ Springer's ''pop-gun
tariff bills" in 1891 provided for the re-
duction of the duty on tin-plate and terne-
plate to one cent pound. 1t passed
the house 2O7 to 81. One of the most re-
markable changes Of front ever executed
by any class of people was that of the
Gamers and tinware manufacturers in
1894 Having protested with great vigor
against the Mckinley law duty. they
were now sending a petition to congresN
for its retention Mr. Aldrich presented
a petition said to have been signed By
the consumers of nine-tenths of all the
tin-plate used in this country, asking
that the schedule be left as 1t was in the
Mckinley law, and declaring that they
were able to buy tin-plate cheaper than
before that~law went into effeet.-(Copy-
right, 1909, by Frederic ]. Haskin).

DEKALB ELECTION
FOR REPRESENTATIVE

The time is rapidly drawing near for
the election to fill the office of repre-
sentative from DeKaib to fill the place
of Hon. Murphy Gambler, resigned. May
2s, next Friday, has been set by the
governor and there are only two men in
the field, Messrs. S. A. Morris and Alon-
20 Field. There is little enthusiasm over
it and 1t is predicte that the election
will be very quiet and not likely a heavy
vote All who are interested. however
say the vote will be very close and none
can predict the outcome.

on tin-plate amounts to upward of 80
per cent The quinquennial census OF the
industry in 1905 placed the value of the
product at s65, 100000. and the whole cost
of the labor at $1O,5OoOOO. If these fig
ures represent the true condition, the
wage earners total share in the proceeds
is is per cent. In other words, the man
ufacturer gets protection about twice as
great as the entire cost of the labor in
volved.
One of the things against which the
small consumer of tin-plate kicked the
hardest, is, the drawback clause in the
Dingley law Under that provision the
Standard Oil company and the beef trust
can import their own tin-plate, make II
into cans, fill them, and then re-export
them, receiving upon re-exportation
drawback of 80 per cent of the duty paid
on the tin-plate. In other words, these
large corporations, instead of being COM
PEELED to pay $3.50 a hundredweight on
the tin for their export trade, pay only
fifteen cents a thousand pounds, while
the small consumer, not having an ex-
port business large enough to warrant di-
rect importation. cannot take advantage
of such privilege.
Much complaint has been heard about
the quality of American tin-plate, and
also of the roofing material known, as
terne-plate. At the recent hearings be-
fore the Ways and Means committee,
there was many representatives of the
roofing interests who declared that the
American product was of inferior quail
ity, and that the duty served to keep
out the better grades of roofing tin, thus
bringing tin into bad repute as a root
ing material. The makers Of roofing
tin Indignantly repudiate this view. They
declare that never before in the history
of the country has a dollar bought as
much in quantity and quality as it does
today, and that nowhere in the world
can a given grade of roofing tin be pur-
chased for less money than it can be here
in America
The Gamers have also found some
ground for complaint. They declare that
there has not been enough uniformity
of coating. Tin-plate is made by first
rolling out very thin sheets of high grade
STEEL These are put into picking vat
filled with acids so as to take all the
oxidation and grease off of them. They
are at once dipped into another vat filled
with a mixture of pure tin and lead,
with a little tallow added. When the
plates come out of this they are the tin

ly speaking. The Gamers do not complain
that there is not enough coating on the
steel sheets, but that it has not enough
uniformity. The tin-plate manufacturers
have set out to remedy that trouble, and
the canning. trade expects to see the end
OF unsightly cans.
When the trainers of the Mckinley law
incorporated the tin-plate duty in that
measure they freely confessed that it was
an experiment and in order to make sure
