"The patriot who fails to recog-

ltterworth has a very positive opin-
that we have carried this protection
ness too far, and he reioices that
@ are signs that bait is to be
ID. Here is the way In which he
esses himself: "Th6 country does
believe such high rates are essential
deouate protection. There is no

t shows less inclination than our
to mind its own business and let

situation as a party? The tariff un-

Senate will do more than transpose
Dxorbitant rates than abound in the
ent schedule"
zen he comes back to the subject

farmers market, and complains
,rly OF a Congressional policy that
