I J HE INDEPENDENT. THURSDAY MARCH 8, 1889 We have surrendered considerable space this week to tbe tariff discus sion, which will not in future be continued at such length. Our purpose is to give a free but brief hearing on both sides, and allow a moderate, courteous exchange of thought. As we are publishing a public journal, we have no apology to make for allowing voice to sen timents opposing our views on the question. Mr. M. J. Mac Mahon, a practic ing lawyer of ability at Baker 'ity, is spoken of as a probable presiden tial elector from Eastern Oregon. Mr. Mac Mahon is well known in this county from his connection with the faculty of Tualatin Acad emy and Pacific University. He is a man of learning, being a graduate of the University of Michigan and Sorbonue of France. In 18S4, Mr. MacMahon canvassed California and Oregon for the republican presi dential ticket, made a strong can vass and would do so again. Mr. Eddy, of Pendleton, is also men tioned as an elector, but as that city was favored in 1884, Baker City believes she" is entitled to the honor this time. The American seedsmen have be gun to cry. They do not life tariff. Canada has passed a law which al lows a Canadian seed-raiser to ship seeds through the mail for four cents, but an American is compelled to pay sixteen cents to ship a poand of seeds through a Canadian oflico. The Americans will reduce the price of domestic needs, and make a sweeping cut in the wages of em ployes. During one week in Chicago a short time ago, there were 237 houses and stores robbed, six safes blown open, seven men santl-bag-ged and three women assaulted. This is not many removes from anarch-. Gen. Lew Wallace has received $37,000 as royalaties on"Ben-Hur," the sales of which have reached nearly 200,000 copies. A RIFF AND W00I 4XKWEK. Euitor Independent: I notice that my friend, 31 r. Ed Schulmerick, has come boldly to the front as an advocate of free trade. While my own personal views of the question materially differs from Mr. Schulmerick, nevertheless I admire the absence of any tendency towards , discrimination in favor Or against any one industry which is character istic of his letter, and his fairness of expression, contrasts very favorably with the proposition of the majority that constitutes the ways and means committee to put wool on the free list, but retain tbe present protection given the woolen manufacturers; which means that the flock-master who has to contend against cold winters, blizzards and almost in numerable dangers that incessantly hover around his industry, also foreign countries with perpetual summers to compete against, shall have the very vitalizing elements of his industry taken away from him. While on the other hand, the millionaire manufacturer who dwells in a palatial residence, and drives on the fashionable avenues of our cities, behind a 2:15 team shall have his interests carefully guarded. It is the attempt at class legisla tion that U objectionable, not tbe i millionaire, as a borne millionaire is probably worth more than a thous and foreign ones to this country. To discuss the different subjects hinted on by Mr. S. would entail too much . of your valuable space, so shall confine myself mainly to the wool question. It seems extremely illogical to assert that free trade would not injure the wool industry. A slight reduction of the tariff on wool in 1883 has caused a decrease of over 6,000,000 sheep in this country, which is an annual loss of I'J.OOO.- 000. At the same rate of increase of our flocks for the four years pre ceding the reduction of tbe tariff, we should have had an increase of about 10,000,000 sheep a loss of $15,000,000; total annual loss, $24. 000,000. The difference between twenty-four million lost, and that amount gained, is practically $48, 000,000. Has wheat raised in value or any other farm product to offset thia loss? If not, then whv advocate the total destruction of an industry j rlsite length of time. IS. s. C'ran worth $80,000,000 a year to this dall's standing is sufficiently high to en country. j title him to second grade, but be lacks Our importers paiil out for foreign i experience, hence a third grade cert iff wool in five years ending 18S2, 1 catc is "ranted. tbt,ll 1,541". J? or five years ending; ies, llb-,754,559, which is $o0, t"43,010 more sent out of this country principally Bince tbe reduction of the tariff than there was for the live years previous. It can be seen that the slight reduction of tariff duties on wool in 1883, have increased our imports of wool more than $10,000,000 a year, and caused a decrease of over G.0Q0, 000 sheep, still the advocates of free trade, in spite of this evidence, persistently maintain that free trade would not affect the wool industry. The influence of protection, as an impetus to build up home manu factories, can be fairly illustrated by the growth of our woolen manu factories. In 1810 the product of woolen goods were estimated at $25,608,788, but after the close of the war of 1812-1815, immense quantities of foreign woolen goods were received and the home product fell off to $4,413,068. It took nearly twenty years for the home woolen industry to rally. From the influence of a gradual tightening of the lines of protection from 1824 to 18C7, the industry gradually revived. The product in" 1850 being $43, 000,000; in 1860 $02,000,000; 1870 $217,000,000; 188,0 $267,000,000. Why are the flock-masters of Australia and the Argentine Repub lic also the British press so jubilant over the president's message? Is it because that if his views of free wool are cdopted, that it will be our gain and their loss? If the tariff is removed from wool, Australia and the Argentine Repub lic, with their 80,000,000 sheep each, will soon drive our wool growing industry out of existence, and when disposed of, they will practically monopolize this market, and set their own price on their wool . The revenue derived from wool is about $5,000,000; from sugar, $50, 000,000. The former was specifically attacked by our president in his message, on the ground of reducing the surplus, while the latter was scarcely mentioned, if mentioned at all. Geographical productions were evidently considered. The sugar industry of this country is practically nothing, but the people are to be taxed about $50,000,000 a year iu order to maintain tbe industry. It would not be right or just or good policy to crush this young industry, but there certainly ought to be some feasible way of fostering this incipient industry, instead of placing such a heavy tax on the people. If the producer and refiner of sugars were given a bountj on their products, equivalent to the present protective duties, it would probably save at least $40,000,000 a year to the consumers and still maintain the industry. If I mistake not. Germany adopted the bounty plan, and that country produces immense quantities of beet sugar. The laboring man figures quite conspicously in the tariff arguments, both parties claiming to benefit him most. Absolute free trade is probably a mere shadow in American politics, but for illustration we will use it in connection with tbe working man. Free trade means unrestricted international commercial competi tion. The country that has tbe best uatural or artificial advantages, will come out of the contest victoriously. In order to compote with Great Britain in manufactured wares, money will have to be got at 2 J per cent, and labor cheapened accord ingly. The unskilled laborer of that country earns 2 shillings, about 50 cents a day, without board, or $150 a year. The American laborer $1 or $300 a year. This U protection wages; of course free trade would naturally reduce it to the level of his foreign competitors. The present system of protection compels the laborer of this country to pay, pay a tax of 50 per cent, on his woolen goods and sugar, but on the other hand he gets his meat for half the price that the British laborer has to pay; also, flour, etc., cheaper. He buys $50 worth of woolen goods and $20 worth of sugar a year, for which he has to pay $35 more than the British laborer, but he has $230 left while the foreign laborer has only $115. Which is the best off? The fable below appeared in the "Sheep Breeder and Wool Grower," Chicago, quite recently: Mary liatl a litt I Ii-ruli. Its fleece, whs white as Know, And built a little tariff jien To keep it safe yon know. But Royer Mills, he came aloii. An ujjly boy was be, And smashed tho little tariff pen To let the little Iamb go free. And in the night an English wolf. As Hilent as a clam. Came prowling ronnd the broken pen And killed tho little lamb. Then Mary wept, but hopeful said: "111 have free wool at leant!" 'And so yon shall," said Roger Mills; So said the ugly beast Hut when she went to get the fleece, The wolf was sitting on it; "Come on." said he, "and get your wool: I've fixed ray price upon it.' So Mary traded with the wolf, Ami roundly did she pay; For that dear fleece she feci the beast A twelvemonth and a day. JMF.S WlTHYCOMBF. TrhfM' tiamlualltm.

McFarland. to Lilly Uurnham, Judge U Craudall officiating. Allot Washington county. ANSWER OX THE TAKIIT. Forest Grove, Oregon, March 5, 1889. Editor Ihdepexdent: Mr. Schulmer ick, in hU arguments on the tariff ques tion, shows that he is laboring under some confusion of mind as to the real working of tbe tariff laws. High prices and high tariff are, in the popular mind, associated together, but the bond of union is not real. As a matter of fact, tariff has nothing to do with the value of a manufactured article. That is gov erned by the laws of supply and demand and the tricks of trade. American cut lery is sold at a profit in the markets of Sheffield aud American prints in the markets of Manchester, to say nothing of the American locomotives that pull tbe English roaches. All articles pro tected by tariff as opposed to articles manufactured under free trade laws. The fact that these articles arc sold in the center of free-tradism cuts the ground from under the foot of tbe free trader. It is competition and the actu al cost of manufacture that determines the price of a manufactured article, and tariff has nothiog to do with the cost of manufacture or competition. Mr. S. stated that the poor man paid as much taxes a Gould, which is an error. We presume Mr. S. had in mind tbe cost of the poor man's coat. Woolen goods, such as consumed by the laboring man can be bought in Chicago as cheaply as in London. Americans under tariff can cloth themselves as cheaply, a their English cousins across the ocean, unless, forsooth, they want to clothe themselves in silks and satins. Mr. Schulmerick states that tbe wool grower east of the mountains ships his wool to the eastern manufacturer and has the goods shipped back, for which he pays the cost of manufacturing, the transportation plu the tariff on the goods; an error based on tbe assumption that the consumer has to pay the tariff in addition to the cost of manufacture. How does Mr. Schulmerick reroncile the fact that tbe retail prices tf manv articles art below tbe tariff levied on said articles? The American manufact urer has to suffer the usual competition of trade, ami the retail price of an arti cle is governed by tbe laws of supply and demand, unless interfered with by unions or other artificial means. Again, Mr. Kcliulmcrick says that! tariff has driven the American ships off our seaswhich statement is nloiit as near tbe facts in tbe case as the other state ments in his Article. The etra cot of an American iron built ship does not enter as a main factor that has caused the decline of our merchant marine. The two main factor, that have wrought the dec line arc expense and taxation. ri, i Tbe ruunin- expen-e of aa American ves- set, including pay of sailors, food, etc. in f.ttl on u: .i. ,i i - v IS fully 0 percent, higher than his Lug- iimi fompetor nasto pay. .Second, the American ship ha to pay state aud mu nicipal taxes while the English ship goes tax-free, especially when compe tition is concerned. The English government aid its taer chant marine when necessary by subsi dies, while the American congress is too busy manufacturing campaign thun der to relieve American shipping from taxation or other means of relief. The present bogus re" Tn administration has placed the United States mail on beard foreign bottoms instead of American, to save a few thousand dollars, thereby posing before the peot.le as an n ononi - ' . , . . . 1 1 ical administration.
