Much is just now being said and writ - about the selfishness of Protectionists cause they ask Parliament to place the riinufacturere of Canada cin an equal footing with the manufacturers of other countries. Such a request may be selfish, bust it seems to us that it is only reason- able. Almost any principle, no matter how good, may be carried to extremes. It would be possible to grant to Canadi- an manufacturers such a degree of pro- tection' as would be injurious both to t emselves and the country, and it is ually possible to carry free trade thee - to an extent which would be equally iv,juriousto both. This latter te what t e ultra free traders are now doing in t is country. For the sake merely of • s ntiment they• persist in continuing a • stjate of affairs which isplainlY and clearly just and. inj urious to the manufacturers of Canada, and. in justifying such a course • they use a sort of double barrelled argu- • ment which is falacious whichever arm it you see fit .to take, In the first lace we shall endeavor to show the in- stice of the existing state of affairreand la the second place, the absurdity of the a gurnents put forth in favor of a con: t nuance of this injustice. To make the • litter as plain as possible we will sup - that in the municipalities. of Seaforth • and Tuekersmith, certain industries of a Similar nature are engaged in. The coun- • �lof Seaforth see fit to levy a duty or x upon the articles manufactured in uekersmith and sold in the Seaforth et, whilethe council of Tuckersmith # ermit the manufacturers of _ similar rticles in'Seaforth, to sell those articles • • Tuckersmith free of duty, Under •Tao mm uch circustances, would not the ann- • turers of Tuckersmith be laboring une der a disadvantage as •Compared with those of Seaforth? This then is precise - the position which the manufacturers • df Canada and the United States occupy relation to each other. But, our 1 tra free trade friends say -and here is iihere ' the double barrelled argument ines in -if you put the manufacturers both countries on an equal footing .by posing ar tax on American manufac- res .coming into this co'untry equal to tirat imposed upon -Canadian manufac- res going into the United States, you ill increase the price in Canada of these nufactured articles, anoi this will be flicting an injustice on , the majority, e consumers, for the feenefit r-lif • the Moray, the producers ; and besides this you prevent the importation of Anierican nods, and make Canadian manufactur- g more profitable, a larger number will bark in manufacturing in Canada, and e manufacturers, after all, will be no o tter off. Now let us examine the first o rt of this argument, and then the see- d. Even admitting that by imposing protective duty on certain articles the ice of these articles will be increased, • at does not prove that an injustice is • ing done the consumer, because these ticks are now being purchased at less 'l an their true value- by reason of the pdue advantage which is given to the reigh producer over the Jogai producer. . cannot, therefore, be an injustice to e consumer to make hii4 pay- the fair • lue for the article he consumes. And • ren with the amount of protection ask; -the article can neverxceed its true . lue, because if there we e no locel coin- tition, the moment the aotiele reached point above its value, the foreign pro - o cer would be ready to pay the duty d enter the field. So that, entirely in. pendent of local competition, there uld not 11 a monopoly or extortion., at, the second part of the free traders rgument completely destroys the first. I as he says, protection will not bene - ':t the local manufacturer, beeause as the ome market extends the home compe- t tion increases, prices with protection '11 not be higher than without it, and, onsequently, no injustice can be done to he consumer. We do not think hat protection, at least such a de- ee of protection as is required to place anadian and American manufacturers n an equal and fair footing, would ma- erially increase the profits of the Cana- • l.= manufacturer. We agree pretty Much with the second part Of the free rade argument. But although it would not enrich the manufacturer, it would ertainly benefit and enrich the country. anufazturing would extend. The capi- al and labor which is now expended in oreign countries would be expended at onie, • and the agricultural products • • 10 • a , Le • owl to feed foreign Op- - consumed Within Our loch good, therefore, lt, w ile neither hard wrnil4 be inflicted upon are arguing the point of view, at al manufacturing nion. e admit dice to there ong the ederacy. tely, re- coil the minion, rty may e wishes ovinces. ore than ufactur- me, they ve duty, will be ing a pre er the f re, no ma detcrniinedly OPI.jOCOd by them, and On. tario, has eons% ently to suffer that they mayprofit.
