Описание: Excerpt from Tobacco Trade: Report; The Select Committee to Whom Was Referred a Resolution to "Inquire Into the Present Condition of the Tobacco Trade of the United States With Foreign Nations, and to Report What Negotiation or Legislation May Be Necessary to Improve Its Condition" To these evidences of a partial and unjust discrimination by foreign powers against a principal export, let us add that the manufacturing interest of the United States has been founded and fostered by the protection of federal legislation; that the shipping interest, having been protected by a bounty upon foreign tonnage until it felt strong enough to enter the field of competition, has asked the duty to be taken off at home and abroad, reserving to itself, however, a monopoly of the entire coasting trade of the Pacific and Atlantic States. The fishing interest has also received an annual bounty on its capital and enterprise from the foundation of the federal government.

Описание: Excerpt from Coinage of Gold and Silver: February 21, 1891-Indefinitely Postponed; February 23, 1891-Committed to the Committee of the Whole House on the State of the Union and Ordered to Be Printed The Secretary of the Treasury in his report for 1889 states that the surplus of silver in the world, above the amount used in the arts and coinage in all other countries than the United States was, for 1888, fine ounces. According to statement of Director of the Mint Leech the surplus in 1889, assuming that the coinage and use in the arts was no greater than in 1888, was ounces. We are persuaded that the amount used in the arts and in coinage outside of the United States exceeded that of 1888 to such an amount that the surplus was less than ounces. If these estimates are correct, under the present law there is provision for using the world's surplus, which is all that unlimited coinage could accomplish. The American product in 1888, as stated by the Secretary, was ounces. For 1889, according the report of the Director of the Mint, the American output was ounces.
