they havo always been. Again on
tho came principle the senate com
mittee has increased the rates on
spirits and wines 15 per cent
throughout, which, It is estimated,
will yield an additional revenue of
$3,000,000, most of which will come
from the Increased duty on cham
pagne. In the cotton schedule there has
been an extension of tho specific
rates to cover a class of fancy goods
and novelties vhich are covered in
the existing law by ad valorem rates.
Tho resulting ad valorem rates have
not been increased.
The average rates in the cotton
schodule, other than the- rates on
fancies and novelties, remain the
same. There is one exception to this
statement and that is 'the reduction
from the house bill on fashioned
hosiery, where the committee has
recommended the restoration' of the
rates of tho existing law. The com
mittee contemplates a still further
substitution of' specific for ad va
lorem rates in other paragraphs of
tho bill.
Raw flax has been restored by the
senate committee to the dutiable list,
otherwise the schedule remains sub
stantially as it comes from the
house.
The senate committee has re
stored the rates in the wool sched
ule to the rates of the present law.
In silks the senate committee has
adopted a new schedule, replacing ad
valorem with specific rates in all
cases where it was possible to do so,
showing a slight average reduction
from the equivalent ad valorem.
Tho senate committee has not yet
decided what rates it will recom
mend in regard to the wood pulp and
the articles dependent upon it. It
has also left open for further action
the question of the duties on coal
and hides.
It would be impossible in a brief
statement to review all the articles
under the heading of sundries. The
changes from the house bill in the
main are of minor importance. The
senate committee has made reduc
tions of 15 per cent on an average
in the specific duties on hats and bon
nets, which the house had raised in
some instances above the Dingley
rates. The senate committee has
also struck out the house paragraph
in regard to gloves and has restored
the rates in the existing law.
The senate committee has also
added to the sundries of the dutiable
list foreign built yachts owned by
American citizens, which seemed to
the committee a luxury which might
fairly pay a duty of 35 per cent.
The free list, as reported by the
senate committee, in the main re
mains as it is in the existing law.
There is one change, however, in the
free list which is of great general
interest, and that is the provision in
regard to the free art. The house
wisely made paintings and sculptures
more than twenty years old free, and
me senate committee has added to
these works of art generally includ
ing artistic antiquities more than 100
years old.
The senate committee has taken
no action as yet upon the maximum
provisions or the administrative sec
tions of the bill. It proposes to re
port its amendments to these most
Important features of the act at a
later date. It has adopted this course
because It has seemed to the senate
committee of the highest importance
to secure immediate action upon the
tariff and it felt confident that time
could be saved by reporting the sec
tion Imnnnlnrr rliitiocs f?n- j n. .

where they have been for so many
years. It is a slap in the face ot
the South Americans, with whom wo
are trying to enlarge our trade. It
will benefit the farmer by adding five
to eight per cent to the price of his
children's shoes.
It will yield a' profit to the butcher
(beef trust) only, the last man that
needs it. The movement is injudi
cious from beginning to end in
every form and phase.
Please stop it before it sees light.
Such movements as this for protec
tion will protect the republican party
only into speedy retirement.
Very hastily,
JAMES G BLAINE.
JAMES G. BLAINE'S ADVICE
Washington, April 10, 1890.
Dear Mr. McKinley: It is a great mis
take to take hides from the free list,
"BY THEIR FRUITS"
The Philadelphia Record prints tho
following letter from- Ryerson W.
Jennings:
"The Record does well to call at
tention to the circular of Marshall
Field & Co., protesting against tho
advance of duties on hosiery and
gloves. The increases on these two
lines are outrageous and shameful,
and are in full accord with the wool
schedules. But what did Marshal
Field & Co. expect? They advocat
ed and worked for Mr. Taft's elec
tion. They knew, judging from past
performances of the republican party,
that it has never kept faith with its
pre-election promises. The demo
cratic party stood pledged for an In
stant revision of the tariff downward,
and it had a candidate who had never
gone back on his written or spoken
word. If he had been elected with a
working majority in congress, Mar
shall Field & Co. or any one else out
side of a few "infant" industries
would not have had any cause for
complaint. A tariff bill would have
been before the house not filled with
secrets, or dodgers, that even its au
thor can not or will not explain."
