able for the public interest and for orr
agriculture that We SHOULD produce
this prime necessity for ourselves The
duty on carpet woods, a we'll As upon
many other articles. il imposed mainly
for revenue. The irritation caused by
the use OF a few woods heretofore
classed as carpet woods being used for
clothing purposes, has been remedied
by transferring such woods 10 the
clothing wool classes. but the duty ON
clothing woods has been restored 10 tho
rate OF the act OF $500.
In framing this new tariff the aim
has been 10 make the duties specific or
at lcas; partly specific. 80 far a. possi-
Bile. to protect the revenue and also TO
protect our own industries. This has
been done in response 10 the wishes OF
the better class Of importers. rs well as
OF the administrators Of the law and Of
our own producers. The very general
substitution Of specific duties, even
where they are only the equivalent OF
existing ad valoremS. will of itself in
crease the revenue and strengthen the
protection offered 70 our industries.
Reciprocity provisions Of the act q
1890 have not only been fully restored,
but this policy has been extended by
adding 10 sugar, tea. coffee and hides
a. articles on which 10 make reciprocal
agreements such articles a. champagne,
brandy. wines. artificial and natural

reciprocity provision is strengthened
greatly by providing for reduction of
duties on them 10 countries giving Us
similar concessions.

support not only of republicans. but
of others who believe that revenue
should be at least equal To expendi-
lures, with small surplus added. ard
who are patriotic enough TO entertain
the conviction that in adjusting duties
10 secure such revenue it is wise policy
70 encourage home production and
manufactures and thus provide en-
ployment at good wages for the labor

ing power depends the market for ou

able 10 hit him. The California boy
smothered the Cornishman with left

lowed with quick half-arm hook.

hitting in clinches. Corbett made no
