British View of the Morrison Tariff Bill.

1t is quite probable that the London paper
knew what it was talking about when it said
that the Morrison Tariff bill, if it had been en-
acted, would have been worth fl00 900 900,
that is 0,O00, 900 per annum, to British manu-
facturerS. 1t meant that British manufactur-
ers would be able to sell about 500, 900 900
more of their products in this country than
they now do 1t means that 500 900 900 worth
of British made goods would take the place of
$500 600 worth of American made goods
