BENEFITS OF FREE 1t Would Give America the Trade of the World. So Says Mr, Faull. For Fitty-tive Years | English Merchant, lAdustrial tions Well.—low Eng. the Wilson Too much Waste. Who Condi. an Knows View: England and continental Europe | regard the Wilson tariff particular disfavor, says Mr. H. E. Faulk of Liverpool, England, who is at the Midland hotel. They fear that its passage means an awakening on the part of the business men of the United States to the fact that this country, like China, has been doing a proyincial trade long enough | and that it is time to go strike out for supremacy in markets of the world and to compete in every avenue of commerce and in- dustry the world over. Mr. Faulk has been for fifty tive years in the salt business and,though now retired, is still president of the salt chamber of commerce of Liver- pool, which controls the prices of the salt market for the entire world. He was also royal commissioner for England to report upon the salt mines in India.Just now he is travel- ing through the United States for pleasure. Mrs. Faulk accompanies him. e Mr. Faulk said to-day that the new tariff legislation might help the salt trade. It would receive benefit atield, to from the packing and chemical in- | dustries, but that eventually the hardest nut for England and con tinental Europe to crack would be the tariff question. AMERICANS TOO WASTEFUL, “With ten years of free trade in the United States,” said Mr. Faulk, “God help us. It will be the devil take the hindmost. Jobn Bull will have to look out. American manu facturers will learn to manufacture cheaper. Instead of wasting the grand things of nature America will learn to utilize them. Industries fostered by the old tariff system of of this country became wasteful You will learn better after awhile. “Instead of being self-protection America will become a vast world supplier of industrial products. Your restless population will never stand still. 1t will find sources of employment and avenues of trade ; Where other nations hesitate. It will go into the Pacific islands and in all the great sources of trade American industries will lead the way. Youwill have grand ships flying across the seas. The Ameri- can people is more apt to seize the golden opportunity than any other. “Yet America is butZan infant in trade. With alow tariff or with free trade, with raw materials at hand, and with manufactories on the sea coast shipping abroad to the world’s ports, instead of passing laws to keep out people, it will be offering inducements for them to come and stay. Free trade would rise the industries of this country, as Mr. Gladstone would say, by leaps and bounds. This country is pretty well laid over with good things of civilization. Itis a won- derful country—but the waste, the waste is dreadfu!.’ Providence will some day surely punish the people for the profigate manner in which they throw away. VAST PROGRESS OF TWENTY YEARS. “I came to America first in 1846. AsIrecollect New York then and know it now, the change is marvel- ous. Every six or ten years cities are rebuilt, new ones grow up. Twenty years ago I crossed from San Francieco to Cheyenne, from there to Denver,and to Kansas City. Denver was a little, struggling vill- age, and between it and Kansas City | there was nothing but prairie grass, | with herg and there ‘a buffalo. Six years ago I came down from Salt Lake City and the Yellowstone through the same country. I hadn't eyes enough, and I had to open my mouth to take in all the wonderful changes. It wes in August, and for miles and miles we traveled through great fields of splendid corn. The rapidity of progress made me dizzy. “This is a great country for young people.
