We commend the policy OF the present
administration in strictly enforcing tue
tariff laws, the ben fetal effect Of which
is so happily illustrated by thu fact
that the great wool growing industry of
the country receives more protection
now by collecting the whole import dr.

tiriff of 1867 under the practice by Re-
publican officials Of letting foreign wool
slip through our custom houses ut less
