TARIFF REVISON

The Iowa republicans in their
state platform have raised the issue
of tariff revision and it must no
doubt be considered in the campaign
of 1904. It is contended that ex-
treme protection tends to foster
monopolies and this is undoubtedly
true. Infant industries IN this
country need the aid of protection
to enable them to compete with for
eign manufactures, as for instance
the tin plate industry, but when
goods can be manufactured here
and exported TO foreign countries
and sold at profit in competition
with their products it is evident
that we at home must be paying
more for them than we should, and
that the tariff on such foreign prod
ucts should be reduced, 50 as to re-
dHce the price. Home manufactures
should be protected 60 the extent Of
enabling them to compete at home
with the foreigners but when pro-
lection exceeds that limit it builds
up monopolies. The Wilson bill
was evidence of the disaster to our
business interests which free trade
would bring and the building up of
the trusts is evidence of what un-
necessary protection may accom-
plish. The republican party may bo
entrusted to curtail the power Of
the trusts by wisely and iudiciously
revising the tariff so as to prevent
the great monopolies from making
undue profits out Of the people and
at the same time afford them sufi-
Client protection to enable them to
pay good wages and make q fair
profit on their goods. Tariff revi-
sion must be considered an issue and
It is we'll to begin popular edueation
