The New York Press of Aug. 26 accidentally struck the tariff nail on the head. It said: “Water in two reservoirs, connected by an unobstructed pipe, will have the same level in both reservoirs. Labor cost in two countries trading without tariff obstruction must be practically the same, and the level to which it will go will be the lower level.” This is true. There being no tariff on labor passing in or out of this country, labor cost is practically the same as in other countries. This was the conclusion reached by both Secretaries of State Blaine and Evarts after receiving re

ports iruiii numerous Aurei^n ounsuis ou the subject. We presume they were right. It also looks reasonable that the cost of goods would be practically the same in different countries if trade were not obstructed by tariffs. Unfortunately, however, for the man who sells labor and has to buy' goods, there is a heavy tariff on goods coming into this country. This tariff protects manufacturers and sellers of goods, then, at the expense of the laborers, There are but two ways of leveling up the goods and,the labor reservoirs:. 1. Put a tariff on imported labor sufficient to protect labor and to increase the cost of labbr to the manufacturer equal to the protection the manufacturer now receives from the tariff on his goods. This plan would probably not be practicable, because it would not please the rich manufacturers, who would insist upon their inalienable right to employ whomsoever they will. It is now morally certain that a tariff upon labor could not obstruct the passage between the European and American reservoirs sufficient* ly to raise the level in the American labor reservoir as high as the level in the American goods reservoir. Unless it could and should do so the American laborer would still be at a disadvantage as compared with the American manufacturer. 2. Open the pipes between the goods reservoirs as wide as they are between the labor reservoirs of this and other countries. Let there be as free trade • in goods as there is in labor. In this way, and in this way only, can the reservoirs be kept at a level as favorable to the poor laborer as to the rich manufacturer.
