TIE organ is wrong again. The power of
taxation is not always used for the sole pur-
pose of revenue. High liquor licenses are
advocated by some to lessen tho number of
dramshops. If duties on imports can be ad-
justed SO as to protect, as our neighbor ad-
mits, then it follows that tariff may bo
made for tho purpose OF keeping out some ar
ticles altogether. To protect at all is to dis
courage importation of the protected article.
If that can bo justified, then tariff for pro.
lection only might bo piausibly defended
