HIGH PRICES AND THE TARIFF.

w
for the advance in prices are:
The tariff.
s'Trusts, combines and monopolies.
Increased money supply.
I'VE are without sufficient data to
apportion the degree of responsibility
between these three causes, but that
the first two are the chief malcfactorS
we have no doubt; and they are OF our
own creation or permission.

Minority members OF the select COM
mittce on wages and prices OF com
modirS."
Ina vigorous and Illuminating re-
port, made public yesterday afternoon,
the minority members of the Senate
committee which devoted many months
to investigating the increased cost OF
living. take issue with Senator Lodge
and the rest of the republicans and de
clare that trusts and tariffs are chiefly
responsible for higher prices. Sena-
tors Johnston, OF Alabama; Clarke, OF
Arkansas and Smith ofSouth Carolina
sought to demonstrate by witnesses
that the tariff was blameablc, but were
prevented from effective work by Scna-
tor Lodge. chairman Of the committee,
and his associates, who were all stand
pattcrs!
In lesser degree the democrats find
these contributory causes for advanced
prices for ncccssarics Of life:
Increased cost of production OF farm
products by reason Of higher land
values and higher wages.
Increased demand for farm products
and food.
Shifting Of population from food
producing TO food-consuming occilpa-
tons and localities.
Immigration to food-consumlng
localities
Reduced fertility Of land, resulting
i'm lower average production or IN
creased expenditures for fertilization.
Increased banking facilities in
agriculture localities, which enable
farmers TO hold their crops and market
to the best advantage.
Reduced supply convenient to trans
portation facilities Of such commodl-
ties US timber.
Cold storage plants, which result in
preventing extreme fluctuations of
prices of certain commodities with the
seasons. but by enabling the whole
saIers to buy and sell at the best pos
siblc advantage and then to advance
prices.
Increased cost Of distribution.
Industrial combinations.
Organizations Of producers or OF
dealers.
Advertising.
Oycr-capitalization.
Higher standard OF living.
Each of these items is taken up by
the minority and evidence adduccd to
show in just what way and to what OK
tent the reason assigned has aided in
making living more expensive.
Vigorous attack is made in the min
ority report on almost all the reasons
given by the majority report OF the
Lodge committee, submitted some time
ago, as the cause for the advance in
prices.

circumstances. Only a handful of
visitors were present, and it is now
certain that the enormous crowds that
were expected during the latter part
OF August and September will not
materiaIzc. This not only means that
the exposition will be conducted at Il
tremendous loss, but that the merchants
and townspeople will get practically
no return on the heavy investment
they have. Already thousands Of ex-
position employees have been let out.
and local labor conditions are in dan
ger of being upset by this army Of
unemployed. Parliament will pro
badly be asked to vote bonus to the
promoters of the exposition and to
inaugurate government works to pro-
vide for those out Of employment.
