The Tariff on Paper.
Chicago Times

One of the best illustrations of the
absurdity, not to say atrocity, of the pro-
tective system, is furnished by the duties
on printing paper and the materials
employed in its manufacture. The con-
sumption of printing paper in this country
is always fully up to the supply. The
consumption OF no commodity has inereas-
ed more steadily or been maintained more
uniformly. Upon this uniform and steadily
increasing consumption the paper manu-
featuring industry has as steadily grown
and thrigen. No branch of manufacturing
industry has ever been more steadily
profitable; has ever been less subject to
periodical depressions, or has stood, upon
the secure basis of its own ever present
and ample market, in less danger of being
depressed by any possible competition OF
foreign manufacturers. There has been
no time in three quarters of century
when the reed of any protection" against
such competition was realized by any
American paper mill, The duties on paper
and paper making materials. imposed
upon the false plea of protectingAmerlcan
paper mills against foreign paper mills.
have been simply needless, uncalled TOR
tax on the increasing diffusion OF lntelli
gence and spread of knowledge among the
American people, This is the truth, and
the whole truth of the matter.
