scented the most conclusive evidence of
how unjustly the republican tariff tax
operated. 1t gave what the United

day and it illustrates farther the gross
iniquity of that enormous, unjust
tariff tax of Mckinley:
Behind the artificial wall of social
ed protection great combines are form
ed which sell goods in Europe cheaper
than the American consumer can buy
them right here at home"
This is one of the ways the r~ascalIy
trusts operate under the fostering
tariff. The foreign productions are
shut out and the trust fix their own
prices. AS an exchange lately said, Of
the trusts:
They asked for this protection on
the ground that without it they could
not compete with their foreign rivals.
They gave assurance that competition
at home would ebstimulated by a pro-
tective tariff an dthat this competition
would reduce the price of the articles
they manufactured SO that
as well as manufacturers would benefit
by protection
Getting the high tariff tax, the trusts
now sell their goods all around the
world cheaper than they sell to the
American people they rob so ruthlessly.
