A DISTINCT TARIFF ISSUE.

II is not always easy to reduce a
tariff question to such simple terms
that II clearly illustrates in itself the
difference between the protective and
the free trade policies A sharply de-
fined example of the kind is found in
one of Missouri's leading industries.
More than half the output of Ameri-
can zine is mined in that state The
Joplin zinc district Is noted through
out the world and, mp to five years
ago, had an extraordinarily rapid
growth 1t was then discovered by
the shelters. whose business II Is To
get ore as eheaply as possible, that
foreign ore could be imported at a
low rate as result of the fact that
the wages of foreign miners is less
than half that Of. American miners.
The importation of zinc ore was I'M
thought of when the Dingley tariff
was framed in 1897, and no duty
was imposed on its importation.
Through this loophole the smelters

standard of living is far below any
thing known among the miners of
this country. Since 1904 the smelt-
ers have brought in 100000 tons of
peon ore and the Joplin district has
suffered accordingly.
This question is 50 distinct in its
material features that it became
prominent in the Missouri congress
sional campaign of last year and was
set forth in a brief speaking tour by
Speaker Cannon across the state. It
aroused earnest interest among the
lead miners also. whose flourishlng
industry is protected. but exposed to
