He began with the assertion that the protective tarin
Is the cause OF Americas national prosperity. Inc

National characteristics and the natural resources
hut other countries with such resources bad not 'hs
same prosperity and Americans with the same char-

before the tariff Of 1861
Mr. Phelps said that Germany was the Leading
country in Europe in the practice OF protection ana
therefore in prosperity. Germany, poor at the start
has practIscd protection nine years Nine years are
not so good a hundred years But nine years have
done great deal, and Bismarck has seen no reason
to regret his decision that the policy OF the German
Empire should be protection. Its wages arc cohuh
