j. A. Whittier told the tariff COM
mission at Chicago that wages We're 30
per cent lower in Canada tlan in Mich
igan, and if the duty were removed
from lumber Canada lumber would
undersell Michigan lumber, and to
meet the competition there would have
TO be II reduction in prices and wages
in the Michigan lumber districts
James Redpath says: II was rad
ical free trader until visited Ireland
and saw the blighting effects of com
pulsory free trade there. 1t has ruined
the manufacturing interests of Ireland
and made the whole people dependent
on agriculture, and, therefore, practi
cally the serfs of the soil. What that
policy has done absolutely in Ireland,
where English free trade has had full
sway, it would do relatively in every
country of the world"
j. A. Whittier. democrat. of East
Saginaw, went TO Chicago TO represent
the interests of the Michigan lumber
men before the tariff commission. Did
he represent to the commission that
the tariff on lumber "is IA burden and
not blessing Did he state that
"a protective tariff, or revenue tar
if is as powerless to lix standard Of
wages as is the tail of the comet -
No. What did he tell the commission
lie told them that the tariff OH lum
Der pays revenue Of n million dollars
annually and helps TO keep up wages -
Did he know as much about the mat

ocrat party in removing the duty from
lumbcrl Certainly he will not. for le
