the consumers of the country are to get none of the benefit which should come from the lower cost at the wharf of these imported articles, what reason is there to believe that they will get any advantage from similar importations which will come in more gradually? The fallacy of this argument about tariff reductions bringing down prices in the absence of general depression .lies in its foolish assumption that the distributive system of the country bases price upon cost of production and distribution, rather than upon what the traffic will bear. With apples rotting in the field in sight of the cities, and with apples in the cities selling at big prces, it ought to be clear to the man who stops to think a minute that the mere fact that an Importer can buy an article cheaper abroad than the American
jobber or wholesaler can buy it at
the American factory door, does not
necessarily mean that the saving will
be passed on to the ultimate con
sumer. If experience teaches any
thing, all the slack will be taken up
before the consumer is reached. The
rule, in the absence of corrective measures, either public or private,
applied to the abuses and inefficiencies of distribution, will be to continue to uharge what the traffic
will bear.
There is no possibility whatever of
any relief for the ultimate consumer

was predicted after the national elec

for it. But the tale is the same in all

' "Do not know cause of death, but patient fully recovered from last illness.' " "Deceased had never been fatally sick.' " 'Died suddenly, nothing serious." " 'Pulmonary hemorrhage sudden death."
