pt'Tlt dhb, iuSlttut W tHls, 1 propose 10
1 say something of the desirability of TAX
/ ing such steps, through the offices of the
| general Government, as will increase our
| trade, especially with the countries of
/ Central and South America The news
papers call it, and call it justly, 'recpro-
I city with the southern countries"
Now, gentlemen, to begin with, there is
nothing mysterious or recondite or furtiye
about this. 1t is plain, business pro-
position, and it commits the general Gov
ernment TO such policy, either by treaty
or by legislation, as shall open to the pro
dacts OF our farms and mines and shops
The markets of the countries south of US,
which by soil and climate and pecularities
OF their people not only need anl desire
these products of ours but can and will
pay Tor then IN articles which we do not
produce but which we need and desire. 1t
Is no iniractlon of the doctrine of protec-
ton under which our great industries are
built up; but, on the contrary, is a helper
to that doctrine. We protect the laborcr
/ ana mechanic, The artisan and the manu-
facinrer in the United States against the
product in iorelgn countries OF the under-
rald iahofer, mechanic and artisan who
makes the identical article which we pro-
dGcc and VINO without the imposition Of
tarf duties would HOOD our market With
ms cheaply made product and drive out OF
/ tNistehce our own establishments; but we
do not need to protect the shoemaker Of
LAM and Haverhiii and Brockton, or the
manufacturer who employs him, or the
d'aIFf> oI feafI street who mass and sell
their product against the labor which pro-
dnces iote and other grasses in Mexico ;
c"nee, india rubber and guita-percha in
BraZll; hides and skins IN the Argentine
Republic; scda-nitfatcs in Peru and Chill,
anu sugar IN Cuha and Porto Rico. Every
invoice OF cotton, WOODEN, or the metals
ifom England, France or Gtrmany, com.
peles with and threatens the labor in
corresponding branches Of the United
states aud so protection and tarih duties
are invoked for the security and prosperity
of our labor against these impoTtatiou> ;
hut every invoice of coffee, sugar, gn,ta-
rcrcha and the other articles that | have
named from the Central and South Amcri
can states furnishes supplies which We can
not produce. To be used aud consumed by
Us I" Il" paid for by the uudespolled labor
