manufsc;nru, interests, and that any steps IN tha'
s,r, couducs to the greatest good to the great
est number" Sc OF the points which lie makes are
worthy Of wide publication He says, fer Instance:
Free trade between the countries Of the world would In

this country which the of labor enters largely into the

voud reduce the price labor IN this country TO the level
Of the prices paid in Europe The free traders however

Now let us soc their claim By facts 1t is
