The Democratic campaigners are
making figures to show that during
the first sixteen months of the Will
SOC tariff law, which ended in De-
cember, the importations exceeded
the importations during the last six.
teen months of the Mckinley tariff
law by s10,, 900, 600. We do not dis.
pute the figures. 1t is just what the
Republicans claimed revenue tariff
would do. Every dollars worth OF
imported articles, that could have
heen manufactured in the country,
was Just one dollar less work fol
American labor. In addition to this
the tariff that was to produce revenue
has failed TO produce. The receipts OF
the government for the first sixteen
months of the Wilson law were $780,.
600, 0C0 less than the receipts for the
last sixteen months eff the Mckinley
law. This simply amplifles the stu
pidity OF the democratic legislation.
