Aug. 28 —The local head- quarters an congression- al! comm: ve out the fol- lowing letter from William B. McKinley, chairman of the Tepublican comgressional committee: Beveriv. Mass, Aug. 20, 1910. My Dear Mr. McKinley As the chairman of the national con- Eressional repu committee, you have asked me to give the reasons which should lead v in the com- ing November election to cast their republican candidates for Baliots hat when this letter is Le lines will be drawn, didates will have been stion for decision -~ ea selected_and the qu »ill be whether we shall have in the house of representatives a republican or a democratic majority. The ques- tion, then will be not what complex- fon of republicanism one prefers, but whether it is better for the country to have the republican party control the legisiation for the next fwo vears and forther redeem its promises, or democratic majority in ther to jnterpose a veto to measures. or to formulate to enable a repablican and pass bilis to carry out democrat- ic principles. Prominence has been given during the preliminary canvas- ended to the differences be- -ans; but in the election such differences should be forgotten. Differences within the party were ma sessions of the pres- ent congress. and vet never in its his- tory has the republican party passed and Secome responsible for 2s much useful and progressive legislation. So, issues will doubtiess arise be- members of a republican ma- Tity as to the details of further leg- lation, the party, a whole, will show itsel’ in the future. as in the past. practical and patriotic in sub- ordinating individual opinions in order to secure real progress. Hence it is important that after republican con- gressional can lates have been duly ®nd fairly chosen. all republicans who believe in the party principles as de- wlared in its pationai platform of 1908 shpuld give thecandidates loyal and efective support. 17 this is done, fhere will S no doubt of a return of a re- publican majorits. Democratic Repudiation. The only other alternative iz a dem- ecratie majority. It is difficult, very difficult, to state all the principles that would govern such a majority in ity legisiative course; and this because jt: 3%y platforms have presented a va- riety o€ planks not altogether consist- ent, akd pecause in the present con- gress leading democrats in the senate and the house have not hesitated to repudiate certalp of ‘heir party pledg- s sad o deny inding character. We may reasol assume. however, s @emocratic majority in the Rewes wou reject the republican doc- trine of protection as announced in 1908, What therefors, has a republican who Laieves in protection but objects 0 s rutes or schedules in the pres- ent ta._ act to hope for from a dem- ocratic majority which, if allowed its Tay, would attack the protective sys- tem, and hait business by a threatened on of the whole tariff an revenue or if prevented by the senate ar d merely do noth- programme as e republican na- 1308 could mnot be br one congress. its promises are ex- ted in one administration, it will thin a proper time.

Let constder. summarily, the promises made and the legislation en- Bcted by the present congress: First and of primary importance was the o to revise the tariff in accord- nee with the rule laid down in the Jatf>rm_to wit: that the tariff on ‘articies imported should~be equal to the difference between their cost of production abroad and that cost in this country. allowing a reasonable it for the domestic manufacturer. A very full investigation—full, at least, as such investigations have been con- ducted in the past—was made by the ways and means committee of the Bouse to determine what rates should be changed to conform to this rule. A reduction made in six hundred and §afr r numbers. and an in- create in some two hundred and twen- iy, while! eleven hundred and fifty re- mained unchanged. The bill was amendea in the senate, but the pro- fon of increases to decreases was maintained. When 1 signed the bill, I accompanied my approval with the following memorandum “I have signed the Payne tariff bill Because I believe it to bc the result of & sincere effort on the part of the republican party to make a downward revision. and to comply with _the ises of the platform as they have n senerally understood and as 1 ngterpretod them in the campaign be- fore_election.

It suf- to ssr that with regard kes. liquors winee and in Ao suixe and gs t high of coltons—al may curies and proper sui- —there have in rates. President Taft to|a free trade bill. statement that this bill is a substan- tial downward revision, and a reduc- tion of excessive rates. This is not It was not intend- ed to be. The republican party did not promise to make a free trade bill. It promised to make the rates protec- tive. but to reduce them when they excéeded the difference between the cost of production abread and here, making allowance for the greater nor- mal profit on active investments here. I believe that while this excess has not been reduced in a number of cases, in a great majority the rates are such as are necessary to protect American industries, but are low enough, in case | of abnormal inerease of demand, and raising of prices, to permit the possi- bility of the importation of the for- | eign article and thus to prevent ex- cessive prices. “The power granted to the executive | under the maximum and minimum | elause may be exercised to secure the | removal of obstacies which have been | interposed by foreign governments in the way of undue and unfair discrim- fnation against American merchan- dist and_products. “The Philippine tarift section T have | struggled to secure for ten vears last | past_ and it gratifies me exceedingly | by my signature to give it the effect of law. I am sure it will\greatly.in- crease the trade between the two coun- | tries, and it will do much to build up the Philippines in a healthful pros- perity. “The administrative clauses of the bill and the customs court are admira- biy adapted to secure a more uniform and a more speedy final comstruction of the meaning of the law. “The authority to the president to use agents to assist him in the appli- cation of the maximum and minimum section of the statute, and to enable officials to administer the law, gives a wide latitude for the acquisition, un- der circumstances favorable to its truth, of information in respect to the price and cost of production of goods 2t home and abroad, which will throw much light on the operation of the present tariff and be of primary im- portance officially collected data upom —which ~future -executive action nd_executive recommendations may be,_based. “The corporation tax is a just and equitable excise measure, which it is hoped will produce a sufficient amount to precent a deficit and which inci- dentally will secure valuable statistics and information concerning the many corporations of the country, and will constitute an important step toward that degree of publichty and regula- tion which the tendency in corporate { enterprises in_the last twenty years has shown to be necessary.” This fairly states the effect of the | bl The bill has been criticised for cerfain of its rates and schedules. Some of the criticisms are just and some are wide of the mark and most unjust. The truth is that under the old pro- tective idea the only purpose was to make the tariff high enough to pro- tect the home industry he excess of the tariff over the difference in the cost of production here and abroad was not regarded as objectionable he- cause it was supposed that competition between those who enjoyed the high protection would keep the price for the consumer down to what was reason- able for the manufacturer. The evil of excessive tariff rates, however, showed itself in the temptation of manufacturers te ecombine and eup- press competition, and then to main- tain the prices so as to take advan- tage of the excess of the tariff rate over the difference between the cost of production abroad and here. The Payne tariff bill is the first bill passed by the republican party in which the necessity for reducing rates 0 avoid this evil has been y:cognized, and it is therefore a decided step in the right direction, and it ought to be accepted as such. On the whole, it was a_downward revision, particularly on articles of necessity and on raw materials. The actual figures on the first_year's operation of the law dem- onstrate this. It must also be remem- bered that the tariff rates in:the new law on imported liquors, wine and silks were increased _substantially over the Dingley rates, because these were luxuries and it was intended to increase the revenue. The charge that the présent tariff is responsible for the increase in the prices of necessities is_demonstrably false because the high prices, with very few exceptions, affect articles in the tariff upon which there was no increase in rates or in respect to which there was a substantial reduction. Tariff Board. Perhaps more important than any one feature of the operative part of the tariff law, is that section which enables the executive to appoint a tariff commission or board to secure the needed information for the proper amendment and perfection of the law, The difficulty in fixing the proper tar- iff rates in accord with the principle stated in the republican platform, is in securing reliable evidence as to the difference between the cost of produc- tion at home and the cost of produc- tion abroad. The bias of the manu- facturer seeking protection and of the importer imposing it weakens the weight of their testimony. Moreover, when we understand that the cost of production differs in one country abroad from that in another, and that it changes from year to year and from month to month_ we must realize that the precise difference in cost of pro- duction sought for is mot capable of definite ascertainment, and that all that even the most scientific person can do in his investigation is. after consideration of many facts which he learns, to exercise his best judgment in_reaching a couclusion The commission, however, already Stockholm, Aug. 28.—i'crman De Lagercrants, the Swedish mirister to the United States, has, it was an- nounced here yesterday, been recalled.
