fessed to be in favor of better Tariff than that OF
1912 -passed by the vote of Vice President who
pledged himself to support the Tariff OF 1879
and signed by President who was supported as ,
I" a better Tariff man than Henry Clay" The
reader will remember that the duty BY his bill on
every article in each schedule is according to the
heading Of the schedules; in order 10 enable every
man TO see for himself, VIC have added to each ar
tice the duty OF Me dct Of 1S42, reduced to ad va
loren according to the duties actually paid las,
year. There are very few exceptions, where we
could not ascertain the ad val. In every case where
duty is added to article, the duty of 1912 was
] like that of tho present bill We have now moth
ing TO ado, except TO call attention to the fact that
on almost erey article Of 4mercan manufactures or
5 production, The duty IS reiuced. The tendency, Of
1. course, will be TO discourage and diminish Amer-
can productions, and TO encourage and increase for
eign productions In this view of it we call it
BRITISH TARIFF.
