Of 1887 was the legitimate outcome OF tae
tariff reform" legislation of 1928, the
result of the concession made TO the Tree
traders of the south under the lead of John
c. Calhoun Then followed the great
political upheayal Of 1870, when Van
Bureau was beaten by Harri-
son on the tariff ISSUE, Al
ter Harrson's untimely death one short
month after his Inauguration, and the de-
fectlOn Of John Tylor, the democrats, rs
soon as they got control of congress, en-
acted another revenue tariff, and they
would have beer beaten again in 1874 If
the annexation of Texas had not diverted
public attention from the tariff issue AS
it was the wings and protection were
again triumphant with Gen. Taylor in
1S4S Neither Franklin Pierce nor
James Buchanan was free trader, aud at
the end of Buchanan's term the shy was
urid with the flames of civil war.
Protection has been the policy of the ma.
ton nearly al tine time since the govern
ment was organized, and il was certainly
the policy of the founders OF the republic.
There was not free trader in the conven-
tion that framed the constitution The
latest expression of the majority on the
tariff question was when Ohio elected Me
kinley governor of the grand old state
that has never east her electoral vote for a
democratic candidate for president.
