Before Mr.. Morrison and his free trade
colleagues Of the Ways and Means Com
mittee went to battle on the tariff bill-to
be ANONYMOUSLY unhorsed-they made
a report on the wool tariff. 1u this docu'
menL they made n plea for the general
reduction Of duties, and sought to show
how the country is being robbed by the
duty on wool.
The Republican minority came back
with a reply which does credit to It's good
sense OF patriotism. The conclusion Of
the minority report puts the whole tariff
question into this brief and striking form:
1t is not a question simply OF whether
we shall Clothe ourselves In cloths manu-
featured from American woods or In clOths
fabricated from Australian woods, but how
will the nation at large and the individual
citizen be Affected by the policy which
makes the latter necessary, II not inevit0'
bleP 1t Is not the narrow question OF the
cost Of the clothes vi wear, or the food We
eat, or the lumber which gives shelter to
our homes, but what will be the general
effect Of such reduced cost and all which
mus. follow II upon our citizenship and
ultimately its influence upon tho strength
and character OF our institutional The
Government which derives all It's powers
from the people must be mindful Of their
interests, considerable Of their character
and In every way possible favor their pre-.
paration for tho responsibility with which
they are charged. 1t isA broader question
than the price OF the domestic or the for.
eign product, and while the former may
Ia some instances cost a little more than
the latter, II is Of little significance when
measured by the comforts and al.
vantages OF the masses Of Our country,
which Gun not be secured without the
maintenance Of an American policy which
the proposed legislation Is intended to
overthrow.
There Is nothing intricate about the
tariff question as thus truthfully present
ed. 1t is 80 plain that nobody need mis-.
understand. II is our country against any
and every countryside work and wages
and living Of the American people, the
first great care Of American legislation.
This Is business and patriotism. Charity
comes afterwards.

her preparations to marry on her nine
