In his present attitude. Mr.. Caili'lc,s ulbsoln
Ntnre IN Mondays debate Is Illustrative OF INC
whole current Of criticism upon tho wool schtd.
ulc Of the peneing ratiIbi
The tariff bill Is denounced because it
not understood either In Its principle
or its effects. It ia q fact, as tho Pres
says, that higher duties upon raw wool,
| demanded In the interests OF farmers
who grow it, require compensatory duties
for the manufacturer paying these duties
Tho proper adjustment OF these duties
however, have been tho subject oil study
and experiment for many years. 80 lal
rs is now apparent the Mckinley bill
has met the question fairIy, and our con
temporary clearly shows that the bill
offers the American manufacturer the
opportunity to do two things, as follows
