TARIFF THE CAUSE
OF COSTLY LIVING
Reduction of Duties That Foster
Trusts Is the Cure, Says An
Economic Authority.

That the present inordinately high
tariff. directly and indirectly, is the
principal cause of nearly one-half Of the
advances in prices Of the necessities of
life in the past few years is the opinion
expressed by former Governor William
L. Douglas, of Brockton, Mass, who is
recognized authority on economic
questions. The cost of living would be
rapidly restored to its former lower level,
he added, by subtantial reduction of
the duties that protect Trusts or that
unduly tax the consumer.
One of the most startling statements
made by the former Governor was that
many wooden, cotton and other mills are
now closed because the purchasers of
their products. after paying for food
and rent at the prices of to-day, have
not the funds wherewith to purchase
clothing, shoes. etc., instead Of because
the present tariff is not high enough to
keep out foreign-made goods, as recent
ly was asserted at the convention of the
National Association of Hosiery Manu-
facturers in Philadelphia.
Tariffs Boost Prices.
The history of tariffs, went on the
former Governor, showed that they al
ways raised prices, and he pointed out
that prices advanced most rapidly in the
three years following the passage of the
Dingley bill. the same years also wit
Messing the formation and rapid growth
of the greatest Trusts Of to-day. As
for the Payne-Aldrich bill, its passage
was followed within six months by an
average increase in prices of more than
II per cent, he said.
The former Governors remarks, in
greater detail, were as follows:
| wish to say at the outset, that in my
opinion the present widespread discon-
tent and unreasonable radicalism, not
only in this but in other countries, are
due mainly TO the high and rapidly ris-
ing cost of living. The Importance of
this question, both industrially and polit-
ically, can hardly be exaggerated. There
is danger ahead unless we can soon find
the cause of the trouble and remedy
for it.
Greatest Raise IN America.
The first thing to observe is that
prices have risen all over the world in
the last l3 or IA years. The minimum
advance appears to be little less than 30
per cent, and the maximum about 60
per cent. In England prices have risen
a little less than 80 per cent. since 1896.
while in Germany they have risen fully
30 per cent. In the United States the
cost Of living is now about GO per cent.
higher than it was IN 1896. according to
Bradstreet's tables.
These facts as to prices suggest a
general or worldwide cause and also
special or local causes. am firmly con-
vinced that the general cause is found
in gold depreciation. In fact. it is diff

and finally, unless they should change
their minds, against the bill itself, as
amended. The republican lsurgents of
both houses, in the main, are also
against the bill as it stands, and while
they will support certain amendments,
they. too, will vote against the bill on
final passage, unless numerous provis-
Ions to which they object are taken out
of it.
The Cumn1ins amendment to the bill
in the senate Friday would have been
adopted If four absent democratic
mem bers had been present. On Tuesday
the house will take up the long and
short haul provision of the bill, and the
leaders announce their utter helpless
ness to defeat it. The democrats and
insurgents are strong enough to adopt
this provision, just as they have al
ready adopted the provisions for ply
sical valuation and for the inclusion of
telephone and telegraph lines.
Two score other highly radical
amendments are still to be offered to
the bill in the house, with the chance
that several of them will be adopted.
This will SO load the bill with objee-
tionable matter as to defeat it. Indeed,
the democrats openly say that 1t is
their desire to make the bill objection
able and thus to insure it's final failure.
