which uses up that statesman badly
Morrison shows that of the $4,000 900
reduction which Randall proposes in the
taxes, S40,0O0,000 consists of internal
revenue taxes and only $1,000 900 of
tariff taxes. This is really protection
ist scheme in the guise of revenue reform.
The protectiouists would like TO lop of
the internal revenue taxes altogether, as
they would thereby saddle upon the
country permanently the present Chinese
wall in the shape of custom duties. OF
course the government must be support
ed, and if the revenue from tobacco and
spirits is cut off. the tariff must be cons
tinued or even increased The final alb
clifton of internal revenue taxes is a
dream of the protectionists and Randall's
bill is step in that direction.
