Unless the Mckinley bill Is passed at
this session the,,Amsrican Wool Reporter
tells US It pledges itself to do all that 1t can
promote free wool, and in that course
we are sure Of the approval ofa very large
number OF manufacturers who believe in
untaxed raw materials, but have tacitly
assented to the Mckinley bill because Of
the correct proportions which 1t proposes
between the duties on wool and the duties
on goods" AS fully one-third Of the
manufacturers have already pronounced
for free wool and against the bill, this Every
large number" Of others would seem to
show where the majority of them now
stand on this great question. And II the
bill is passed, the Springfield republican
ventures the prediction that the dose OF
more wool tariff which II would give the
industry will cause the Reporter to do
even more to promote free wool than
otherwise-that Is, IL II intends to stand for
the business rather than the politics Of
wool manufacturing. More tariff will
never cure the Ills Of tariff.
