The Government advertised in New York and
bid was S4,50t, free of duty. SuppOsing the
Government had to pay any duty, it would have
made the cost $3.50. That's what the tariff
would make the price of the blankets in Amer

Mills. Flockmasters probably sit with
their feet in u bay-window and let
their bands take care OF themselves.

that the poor people could get it to

True, where n man has from twenty.
