BAR H,RpoR, Nh, Sept. 3, 1872.
Hon. Joseph II, Manley, Chairman, etc,
Augusta, Maine;
My dear sir Not being able, for rea-
sons which have explained to You. to de
liver public speeches i'll the present cam
paign, take the liberty of submitting my
views upon the issues which regard AS be-
ing strongest for the Republicans to urge
before the people.
l,-The issue of the grcs,est consequence
is the tariff on imports, and it will continue
to be so until settlement is effected by Il
majority SO large that it will be tantamount
to general acquiescencc. The Republicans
are aggressive ON this subject. Two years
ago they passed general enactment known
AS the Mckinley tariff, which for time
failed to meet with popular approval and
was regarded with certain degree of dis
trust by those who had always upheld the
protective system.
But II powerful reaction ha, come in
consequence of the yindcation of the Me
kinley tariff by experience. 1t is found tn
have worked admirably and within the last
year has produced greater volume of
business, internal and external export and
import. than the nited States ever trans
acted before.
Notwithstanding the character and ex
tent of the opposition to it. agriculture is
remunerative, manufactures are prosper
ous, and commerce is more ilourshilg than
at any other time, thus indicating the Me
kinley tariff by All impressive and unden
able series of facts.
Against this tariff the Democratic party
has taken a position almost without parallel
in the history of the codntrv. They reject
entirely tine doctrine of protection, pro
nounce ii Il fraud, and anathematize it gen
orally. 4 resolution to this effect was
adopted by the Democratic convention
against the report of the committee on reso-
utions, by two-thrds vote thus mani
Testing the intelligent participation of ever,
man in the convention.
Sometimes resolution may be adopted
in haste, or just when the convention is adj
lourning it may fail to receive the attention
of the members; but this resolution was
debated, pro and con, adopted after a con
test, and was perfectly understood by the
members of the convention. 1t is contained
in these words:
