THE TARIFF AS A CONTRACT.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir; On July 3 The Tribune editorially found
fault with 1.-THE American Economist" for pro-
posing this question in relation to the Cuban rec-
procity treaty: Does it involve the violation
by the government of a contract of agreement with
certain producing interests OF the United States
namely, the Dingley Tariff Iaw?"
The Tribune charges "The Economist" with "sug-
costing that the Dngley law was not indeed a
piece of national legislation but an Instrument
in a commercial bargain; that it was not revenue
law passed for public purposes. but stipulated
price paid to certain business interests for value
received
As the question reads, THE Economist makes
no such suggestion does any other protection
ist. Protectionists agree with The Tribune that
scoundrelIy contract, obtained by corruption for
mercenary motives. is not a contract. The Ding!ey
law, however. is not a scoundrely contract. 1t is
an upright. fair and just one-"a wise and patri-
otto measure. The Tribune believed It to be at
the time Of its passage; contract of the kind
that Washington, Jefferson. jackson. LiTcoln
Grant. Garfield. Harrison. Blaine and Mckinley
stood for; contract with our own people. made at
their viii expressed in the election Of 1895 and in
dorsed in 1860.
The free trader errs in regarding the Dingley
law as a revenue law only. The Tribune has fallen
into the error. for 1t asks: What are the
secret clauses which give what is on its face

law than tax law the declaI ed poAcy
