or hospital whenever the battle 70:
tariff reform is on.
Even if the principle of protection
were admittedly right and the policy
admittedly wise, 10 effort is made
by the protectionists to show that
we need the tariff rates for which
they ask A large portion of the
value Of lumber. for instance, is in
the stumpage. and a reduction of the
tariff would not reduce the labor
cost. but merely the value of the
pine lands. What argument can the
owner of timber lands make in sup
port of a law designed to increase
the value of his land by putting q tax
upon all other kinds of land-for it
must be remembered that the tax
on lumber must be paid by somebody
and the burden falls upon those who
buy lumber Aside from the argu-
ments made against the duty on
other necessaries of life there is an
additional argument TO be made
against the tariff on lumber, namely,
that it encourages the destruction of
our forests. 1t is criminal folly to
offer a bounty for the destruction OF
our forests at the time when we are
frightened at the climatic and other
evils which follow in the train of
this destruction.
The average labor cost is but a
little more than one-half of the pres
ent tariff, and this means that the
protectionists. instead of asking for
a tariff Just equal to the difference
in the cost of production here and
abroad, are demanding a tariff of
more than the entire cost of pro-
ductiOn. The democrat who votes for
the endorsement of the protective
principle may as Well make up his
mind to swallow the entire repub-
liCan program for he will soon find
that in order to get the protection
that he wants for his district he
must agree to protect the trusts and
to permit predatory wealth to have
all it demands, for the favor-seeking
interests stand together and make
trading material of the legislators
whom they control.
The only safe position for dem
ocrat TO take is that the tariff should
be levied and collected for the pur-
pose of raising revenue and not for
the benefit of any particular interest
or industry. Whatever protection
there is should be incidental as soon
as protection becomes the purpose,
then the legislative session is given
up to log-rOlling, wire-pulling and
combination Of interests.
