wears since the Iowa members of Congress
succeeded bv sharp practice in fixing the
tariff ON wool to suit the interests of the
State. and now these refomers would undo
their work. They would also overthrow
the even balance which now prevails in our
sstariff for revenue only" by DESTROYING the
Pennsylvania and Missouri iron and steel
interests. This is cruel, and would hardly
be compensated for by the partial sacrifice
of the wooden interests: but as the Iowa
farmers need CHEAP iron and steel. the cru
elty ia excusable. It will he seen from
this EXPLANATION that the reformers, as is
usual with people who ATTEMPT to lepislste
or make suggestions for the benefit of
divers interests. only succeeded in confus-
ing themselves and failing to provide suita-
ble attractions for the many who are invited
to gain them.
They further declare that corporations of
anv kind shall be subject to the authority
from which thew derive their charters
