the country will be a new stock of ex.
%perience. We already have enough of
that. If we heed what it teaches we
will not be deceived by the loud de-
mands We hear, even though they may
represent great numbers. That is to
be expected. There never was a time
when every advocate of free-trade and

want to revise IL protective tariff

ON REVISION.

United States Senator Foraker of
Ohio in an address at Miamisburg, July
10th, summed up the tariff situation
comprehensively as follows:
"TariT schedules are not intended
to stand forever. What suits at one
time may not suit at another. If the
Dingley law were to be made new to,
day doubtless some Of the rates OF
duty would be made other than what
they are. But 1t does not follow from
this that there should be an immediate
tinker with the tariff. One man wants
II thing and another man wants an
other. Such a work once entered upon
would, in the nature of things involve
all the rates of all the schedules, for
when the whole country would have
opportunity to be heard no item would
escape criticism. 1t might be that a
more satisfactory tariff law would be
made than that which We now have,

With respect to such a procedure only

least have reason to believe. that re-
vision will do less harm than non-re,

But pass all that by. Assuming
that the least possible injuries would
result and that the greatest benefits
we can reasonably hope for would fol
low, still l want some man who is clam
oring for an immediate revision to
not be longer endured, what duties
are to be changed and what improve
ment in the situation is to follow. Let
us have a bill of particulars. No man
should say that he is in favor of such
a disturbance of our industrial condi-
tons as all concede would inevitably
flow, in greater or less degree, from
general revision, unless he has stud,
led the subject sufficiently to have an
intelligent opinion as to what should
be done and how it should be done.
We should know, at least have an in,
telligent opinion, as to the particular
duties he would change, and the extent
to which he would change them.
Have the farmers of Ohio been CON
suited about wheat, corn, sheep, cattle,
hogs, horses and other agricultural
products to learn whether they are dis
satisfied with present duties? Have
the tobacco growers and the sugar
growers been consulted? Have the
mill owners and the pottery men and
the glass men and those whom they
employ been consulted, or are they tc
