Columbus Delano Makes Strong Speech
on the Tariff

Columbus Delano Makes a Strong Speech
the Tariff
WASHINGTON, December 4th.-At the
National Wool Growers meeting, a COM
mittee to prepare au address to the wool
growers of the United States was ap-
pointed. Columbus Delano, of Ohio, Pres
ident of the National Association. deliv-
cred the annual address. He said both
food and clothing should be produced at
home, not purchased from abroad, when
the people who consume them have facili-
ties for their production.
Influenced by the Act of 1888" he con-
tinued, wool growing languishes through
out the United States, and, without relief,
must soon perish. In Texas the wool clip
of 1888 was valued at 1925, ,234. In 1887
it was $5,016 674, showing loss of S4,21I,-
$50. Is it desirable to extipguish the in
dustry best adapted to this vast section
under the cry of free trade or free
wool2
Under The influence of the Act of 1888
our annual clip has been reduced 90 100000
pounds, while it should have increased at
the rate of two per cent. annually to keep
pace with the natural growth of the coun-
try. To those who favor free trade as our
true policy l add no protest against free
wool. If it be free trade as a system, let
US have it pure and simple, without adult
Grafton or duplicity, under the name of
incidental protection Let US do one thing
or the other, and have an economical pol
icy that is entitled to an honest and correct
name. A tariff for revenue with Incl
dental protection, is delusion and a fraud.
We need national policy on this subject,
honestly named. If protection let it be
general and uniform, embracing every
a mo ir7fo hot ha ffoh hINv
pursued by our people"
At the conclusion OF the address the
meeting adjourned and the delegates in
body called on the President and Secretary
Rusk. Their brief interview with the
President, as well as that with the Secretary
of Agriculture, is said to have been very
satisfactory.
