Of only about 100000 OF unnecessary

am sure there is common habit of
Understanding the importance Of free
raw materials in tariff legislation, and Of
regarding them as only related to con-
cessions to be made to our manufactures.
The truth is, their influence is so far
reaching that il disregarded complete
and benefcent scheme OF tariff reform
cannot be successfully inaugurated.
When we give our manufacturers free
raw materials we unshackle American
enterprise and ingenuity. and these will
open the doors Of foreign markets to the
reception Of our wares and give oppor-
tunity for the continuous and remuner-
ate employment Of American labor.
With materials cheapened by their
freedom from tariff charges, the cost OF
their product must be correspondingly
cheapened. Thereupon justice and fair
ness To the consumers would demand
that the manufacturers be obliged to
submit to such readiustment and modi-
fication Of the tariff upon their finished
goods as would secure to the people the
benefit Of the reduced cost Of their
manufactures, and shield the consumers
against the exactions OF Inordinate pro.
fits. 1t will thus be seen that free raw
materials. and a just and fearless regu.
lation and reduction of the tariff to meet
changed conditions. would carry to every
humble home in the land the blessings
Of increased comfort and cheaper living
The millions Of our countrymen who
have fought bravely and well for tariff
reform should be exhorted to continue
the struggle. boldly challenging to open
warfare and constantly guarding against
treachery and half alfheartedness in theil
camp.
/ Tariff reform will not be settled unit
/ it is honestly and fairly settled in the
interest and to the benefit Of a patien
and long suffering people.
Yours very truly.
