Plays Insigniacant Part.

He said in part:
II might give many illustrations of how
Insignificant the part the tariff plays as
respects great combinations of capital and
how puerile is the remedy proposed for the
destruction of all trusts by placing trust
made articles ON the free list. l think 1t
may be said that more of the trusts would
be benefited by the removal Of the tariff
than would be injured, and when injured to
endure the injury more easily than their
competitors, who would be practically de-
stroyed.
THE great tobacco combination is an H.
lustration of this. The removal Of the
duties on imported tobacco and its products
would not only result In a great loss OF
revenue to the government, but would be
an actual boom TO the tobacco combination.
The only remedy proposed by the demo-
Gratis is political and it seeks by indireotion
to attack the policy Of protection, which
has withstood all direct assaults upon 1t
for more than forty years. The policy OF
protection is a beneicent one and whatever
changes experience has shown to be needed
will be made by the republican party.
These changes cannot be hoped for except
through the republican party. The revision
proposed by our opponents is one that can
only lead to the destruction Of our immense
Industrial interests. interviewer as they are
with all other business and occupations,
and, with the destruction OF these, disaster
and distress will inevitably follow"

obtained in that manner. This was salts

Of about half an hour Mr.. Howorth was
