Rlaue THESE remarks merely to deprieate this
forestaling the action of the Committee of
ways and Means in this discussion of the prin-
ciples OF which any review of the tariff in con-
nection with a reduction of duties in one Mace
and the retaining them in another should be
inaue. 10 MN u seemed to be a difficult ques-
u0n. III involved so IN any interests and requir-
ed so much care that he conld not see his wav
clearly so far as to announce without ouIlf;ca
ton that duties could be taken off of every in
dustry and off every investment ofcapital in this
country as easily as they could be in the cases
provided in the bill.
He had the same purpose in view as the gem
tleman from Missouri, so to shape legislation
that III should give yigor and new strength to
every industry and every labor in the land, and
new safeguards to every investment of capital,
While that might be done at one point by the
principle of free trade, that same principle APP
Piled in the same manner to another point
might work death and desolation.
He would go hand in hand with the gentle
men from Missouri in protecting American in
dustry against protection itself but he was also
for protection of American industry against
free trade. AT one point it might be protected
by free trade and atsanother point by what was
commonly denominated protection itself
MIR. Dawes continued at some length in sup
port OF a middle ground that should use both
free trade and protection to work out the great
problem. The bill then passed and the House
went into Committee of the Whole, when Mr.
Poland made personal explanation relative to
resolution introduced by him that all informa-
ton called for from departments should be OBJ
tanned through the respective committees This
was discussed at length an the committee rose
