only, levied for revenue unmindful OF
all other considerations not caring for
the occupations or industries of the
people. A revenue tariff raises revenue
for the government; n protective tariff
would do that. hut a revenue tariff
would only raise revenue. while n pro-
tective tariff stimulates industries, en-

Tho shades Of evening were beginning
TO fall as Gov. Campbell proceeded with
his closing remarks.
II concur most heartily with Mai.
