rs 1T AN AGREEMENT2
THE PROTECTIVE TARIFF CON.
SlDERED AS A CONTRACT.
Have Not the Government and the
People Entered Into a Covenant
That All Labor and Industry Shall
Enjoy the Benefits of Protectlon2

With satisfaction the American
Economist observes the attention de.
voted by the New York Tribune of
July rs to the suggestion that before
taking action on the pending Cuban
reciprocity treaty Congress will do
well to carefully consider and accur-
ately weigh certain important argu-
ments against the consummation Of
that project. The Tribune had commit
ted itself to the opinion that there
was nothing to consider in this con-
nection; that the case was all settled
and the legislation necessary to start
the reciprocity wheels Should take
no time at all" 1t seems, however,
to have discovered that there was one
phase of the question worthy of at
least momentary thought, for In a
leading editorial article of consid-
cradle length 1t goes to the trouble of
taking issue with the position of the
Economist. The subject, to be sure,
