Wool growers,-why is this' We tell you
this is of the fruits of LOCOFOCOISM and
let Gtcts show whether we are right or not
When locofocoism came into power in 1929,
Wool boro duty of 4c,s specific aud 40 per cent.
ad vaorem, and the then existing Tariff provided
for an addition Of S per cent. year, beginning in
June 1929, until the duty should be cents specific
and so per cent ad valorem. This the highest
duty CIV er imposed on wool-ihat imposed by the
Tariff of 1923.
In 1882, (when by the existing acr Of % the do.
y was cts specific and so nd va.) a locofoco
Congress reduced the duty to cts and 40 per cent.
In 1888, the locofocos had majority of 60 in
the House. Their committees reported new bill
reducing the Tariff again, and again reducing the
duty wool. They proposed to reduce the duty
on wool to 35 per cent. Immediately, and 10 contin
ue reducing it, so that in 1885 (only two years,
mark youD the duty should be only FIFTEEN per
cent. This would be reduction of three quar-.
tiers Of the duty imposed by the Wing Tariff in

Tended the wool growers, but it was evident that
they were to be borne down by the overwhelming
locofoco majority. Then il was that Mr. Clay in.
terposed mot TO destroy the wool .grower but to
save him as long as possible. Instead of cutting
down wool to Is per cent in two years, he succeed
ed in getting the majority to consent to increase
the duty from Is per to 20, and to postpone
this reduction from 1885 to 1912 He postponed
your sacrifice for years. This bill, reducing
the duty to 20 per cent, still opposed by the
Wings of the North the members from Vermont
Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island and New
Jersey voted unanimously against i;-while the
ocofocos Of Maine, New Hampshire and N. York
then now, voted en- masse TO sacrifice the wool.

the farmer, and reduced the duty foreign wool.

None can fail to have noticed the pretension
of the locofoco orators and papers of favor for tar

some Of their party, who don't know everything,
actually believe that the loccfoco rar,y for Pro

under discussion in the House, M essrs. Everett
and Slade, Of this State leach offered amendments
to the wool section TO increase the Protection on

TED IN A MASS AGAINST THESE AMEND
MENTS, and aided by few Southern members
barely succeeded in defeating several of these desir
able amendments. Agan-Four different motions
were made by four different Loco Foco Members
to REDUCE even the PROTECTION on wool
which the bill gives, ind the Loco Foco members
voted FOR and the Wings AGAINST the mo
tons.
We have said before that the pretensons OF the
leading locofocos TO be favorable TO protection was
all sham, and we could pile up evidence like the
above mountain high to prove it. Our neighbors
the way offer the for the party voting
against the final passage(a GALL sham ,agan)of the Bill
that the Land Bill was not repealed. Did this ques

to increase the duty on woo3 Did it induce them
also to move to decrease the duty'
