TARIFF REFORM NOTES. THE TRADE UNION MANIFESTS. The trade unionists in their recent manifest point to the small population of the Colonies. Mr Chamberlain has always asked tho people to look forward to the future and reminded us that the day of Empires has come." Take Canada first. In 1800 there were only 210,000 Canadians. In HiOJ there were 5,71,;3] 5. At the same rate of increase the Dominion (f Canada should number nearly 120,000,000, at the end of this century. The same applies to Australia and South Africa. One thing particularly must be remembered in all these three Great British States across the seas there is plenty of room for expansion whilst in the United States they are getting to an end of their territorial resources for develop- ment, and a stream of emigration to Canada has now set in.

"THE GOVERNING PRINCIPLES OF TAlUFF REFORM." No one has put the governing1 principles of Tariff Reform better than the late President McKinley in the following extract from one of his election st)eeeb(?s: We are one nation, \ve have one flag, we have a common destiny. The other nations of the world have their separate and independent political organisa- tions for the purpose of working out for them- selves the highest destiny possible. They owe no allegiance to this Government; they con- tribute nothing to its support, either in war or in peace and if they come into this country to compete with our people, we say that they can do it on condition that a tariff shaH be put upon their products, and that tariff will go towards maintaining the Government, and at the same time will be a defence to our own labourers and producers." Tiiio is the whole doctrine of the tariff. vVe, also, are one nation, we have one flag, we have a common destiny," whether we are citizens of Canida, Australia. South Africa. or Great Britain. Tbe policy which has developed the resources of the United States and united its citizens in bonds of mutual interest will prove no less effective when applied to the United States of Greater Britain.

MOST FAVOURED NATION TKEATMICNT. We are frequently told by Free Importers that there is 110 necessity for Britain to have the power to negotiate, or enter into a bargain with foreign nations; which Tarill Reformers are seeking to obtain as we get all these advantages" by the "most favoured nation clause," This is a complete exaggeration. Lord Lansdowne speaking on this subject in the Lords said :—We are frequently told that what is exiled the mo't favoured nation treat- ment is sufficient protection for us. My noble friend, Lord Selbourne, most properly pointed out that the most favoured nation treatment has ceased to be a protection against hostile tariffs, and the reason is not far to seek. In those days the tendency is towards very minute classification of tariffs, with the result that when two powers wish to make a commercial agreement between themselves excluding from its advantages a third power entitled to most favoured nation treatment, they can easily do so by a process known to experts as gerrymandering the tariff. The thing has in fact been constantly done to our disadvantage." (Tariff Reformers are surely justified in say- ing that it is high time we were playing the trumps which our huge annual import trade puts in our hands, and the right to bargain for ourselves instead of being bargained for by the Datioii', who are our rivals and commercial enemies).

WHO WILL PAY THE DUTIES? The result of my policy said Mr. Cham- berlain at Gainsborough" will be this- that the poor will pay less than they do now upon the absolute necessaries of life; that the rich, or those who approach even the class of rich people, will have to pay a little more for their luxuries, and that the foreigner will have to pay a good deal more for what I have called the privilege of entering this market."

REASONS FOR TARIFF REFORM. 1. It wouid assist the development of a great federated empire, self-contained, self- supporting. and independent of foreign nations 2. It would enormously extend the area of real free trade. 3. It would give us a weapon with which to bargain with protective countries. 4. It would remedy the evils of dumping, and save our decaying industries. 5. It would give more employment and better wages to the British working man. e. It would tax foreigners instead of our- selves. Mr Lloyd-George, in addressing the mem- bers of the City Liberal Club on June 20th, deplored the fact that the London Chamber of Commerce had passed a resolution in favour of Fiscal Reform. He was of opinion that the moment chambers of commerce began to mingle in controversial party politics their real influence vanished. Would Mr Lloyd-George have been equally sorry if a resolution in favour of Free Trade had been carried ? The question was raised in the chamber, not by Tariff Reformers, but by Mr Lloyd-George's own friends, who. brought forward a Free Trade resolution. An amendment in favour of Fiscal Reform was carried by an overwhelming- majority. Instead of accepting defeat, the Free Traders demanded a poll of the whole of the members, when 1,077 members voted in favour of Fiscal Reform and only 472 against it. If Tariff Reform has become a party question it is not the fault of those who advocate it. Mr Chamberlain has always tried to keep it outside of party, and surely an organisation of business men is entitled to discuss it as a purely business question. "An interesting movement in the com- mercial world is the recent establishment in the United States of branch factories by British concerns," says an American contem- porary. Within the last year there have have bepn four of considerable importance; one for the manufacture of weighing machines, at South Milwaukee; a chemical concern at Niagara Falls; a fancy cotton goods mill at South Norwalk, Conn., and a button factory at Baltimore. This move was due to the convic- tion of each concern that they would be better able to hold their trade in America by manu- facturing the articles on the ground, and thereby save the freight and tarill duties imposed on English goods." Commenting on the above, the "Globe" says "If we had a weapon which would have enabled us to negotiate with the United States—the weapon t, which Tariff Reform will give us -British capital would have planted these factories upon British soil, and British workmen would have found an extended market for their labour." Any readers desirous of obtaining informa- tion on the subject of Tariff Reforms should write Henry Longstaff, Tariff Reform Federa- tion Cardiff.

-S TALYBONT PETTY SESSIONS. TUESDAY.—Before Major Taunton, chairman, Sir Edward J. W. Parry Pryse and Messrs William Morris, Edward Jones and Richard Thomas. EJECTMENT. Capt. David Williams, Cleftwr Hall. Trer'ddol, was granted an ejectment order against J. Jones, Tre'x-ddol. THEFT OF SLIPPERS. Thomas Tabin, alias Taylor, Stalybridge. was brought up in custody and charged h,\ Supt. R. Jones, with stealing from a bedroom at Maesnewydd, a pair of slippers, valued at 2s. 9d., the property of Elizabeth Jones, on June 25th. Miss Jane Morgan said that she remembered passing the prisoner on the high way between Maesnewydd and Tynycae Gate about 3-30 on Tuesday week. He was laying- down on the roadside with his feet towards the centre of the road. She believed that he had his boots on at the time. On her arriving home about half-past four in company with her father, she noticed that the bedroom window above the entrance door was opened, with the upper part drawn down to its full extent. It was an unusual thing for the window to he drawn down so far as it was that day. On entering the bedroom she found near the bed a much worn pair of men's boots, in such a condition that she thought that a tramp had b( en in the room. There were wet footmarks on the inside of the window sill. The door 1 of the cupboard was found opened, and one of the drawers was drawn out. Information was given to Sergt. Jones, and in about an hour's time she saw the prisoner in his custody. He was wearing the slippers produced at the time. They belonged to her grandmother, and witness bought them some weeks ago and paid 2s. 9d. for them.—Evidence was also given by a roadman named James Jones, Tanyffordd, ¡ who was working near Maesnewydd, and saw the prisoner passing with his feet barefooted with the exception of a piece of rag or stocking trailing on one of his feet.—Sergt. Jones gave evidence of apprehending the prisoner between Pwllglas and Taigwynion. Witness brought ¡ him back to Maesnewydd, and after cautioning J him he charged him with stealing the pair of slippers he was then wearing, and in reply lie said It is alright, I did take them from the bedroom, and these boots are mine." He placed his own boots on and walked to Taly- bont. He said that he climbed the porch and pulled down the window and entered the bed- room.—Prisoner had nothing to say and he elected to be dealt with summarily. The bench sentenced him to prison for two months with hard labour.

The German Emperor and Empress will pay a risit to the King and Qi een at Windsor in November next.
