( By a Special Correspondent. ) ) t l Why is it . that the price r of art- icles on which'the tariff was not advanced , has increased since the Payne-Aldrich bill ? ' I put this question to United States Senator Moses E. Clapp of Minnesota : , one of the genuine progressive Republicans of Con- gress. "I can answer ' that question" plied Senator . Clapp , "in less than two minutes , and no one will suc cessfully contradict my statement. "In the Payne-Aldrich revision of the tariff the rates on scores up- on scores of articles were advanc ed. Those increases have advanc- ed the price of everything ; yes , have increased the price of articles on which the tariff was not chang- ed. "You can't raise the cost of liv I \ ing to a man who is producing something to sell , without forcing that man to raise corresponding the price of what he has to sell. "Suppose both of us are in bus- . iness , and each has to use what I the other produces. Suppose the I tariff on the article I handle in creased , while the tariff on the ar- : icle you handle is not increased. , By virtue of my increased protec- tion , I force you to pay increased prices. What are you going to do about it ? What must you do about it ? f Answer : you must in- crease the price of what you have to sell ! And that's just ' be way it works out all along the line , and in the end all of . the increases fall upon the broad shoulders of the consumer. I I "But you will hear it said constant- ly with reference to something on which the price has been advanced 'Oh that isn't in the tariff at all. That increase has nothing to do with the tariff. ' But the 'fact isj I tariffjevision upward on a few articles reaches all along the line. "The new tariff law has cost , and is costing the American peop- le millions on millions of dollars , in increased cost of living. And if the Payne-Aldrich bill had been beaten , those millions would have been saved to the people. " BATTLESHIPS ARE EXPENSIVE. Congress has authorized two more battleships. It estimated . each ship will cost 12,000,000 to build I and $1,000,000 a year during its 20-year life-time to maintain. The aggregate ultimate cost of each ship , as a matter of fact , is , there- fore 32,000,000 ! The cost of each ship would buy 8,000 farms at § i,000 : : each ; it would construct 1,600 churches throughout the country at 20,000 each ; it would furnish the means of education through a four-year course to 16,000 men br women at t" : § 500 , per annum ; it would 'build I and equip 50 manual l training : schools with necessary tools and appliance , giving a trade to 75,000 young people eaclryear ; it ' build a macadam road between Chicago . - ' r . : . . . .
