OUTSIDE OF the iDricacies OF the oil
f,rent schedules Of the tariff, purposely
made obscure and difficult fer vOt r. to
understand, tie question of high or low
tariff is the real fact at issue. That
plain issue everyone can comprehend
The present tariff was especially designed
To rrotect the trusts ard manufat tnrers
from foreign competition, and the quss-
ton of Rising revenue for the govern
ment was q secondary consideration. Inc
republican politicians when concoc'ipg
the present tariff law to snit the uus's
and protected monopolists rlshly dis
carded the presumption that foreign
countries, when they found the sehed-
ules so prohioitive thst they could mol
proftably export their products TO TINS
county, would retaliate by increasing
their rates Of duties, 80 as ID prohiol
. tbe importation of American goods. For
eiOners want our wheat aud Hour, our
corn and meat and tobacco, and other
products they do net RAISE themselves, OF
A, not produce in sufficient quantities to
supply their own consumers, but they
do not want orr manufactured goods tC
conpete with their own like products
Such countries as Germany, France,
Austris, Russia, and in TACT every
country, but England, has rlised a
higher tariff barrier TO prevent compe'
tieon from the United SITES. They de-
clare, eli you will not trade with u.s. we
will buy as little IS possible of YOU
The trusts try to overcome Their reign
tariff barrier by selling st much lower
prices u the foreigners than to our own
people. The European and othT icre'gr
msrktts are loaded down with bargain
counter goods from the United States,
while trust prices here ere still Kept g.
the TOP notch. Therefore, the question
the voters of the United States mus
decide at the coming election Ia whethtl
they are satisfied to pay high prices foI
much they buy, of by reducing the t'rii
participate in the reduced plicea this t1h'
foreigners enjoy. That is a simple prop
osItion to vote upon. These few voters
wh1 benefit by trust high prices WILL Of
course, vote t. continue the republican
party in power. Those who think the
trusts should shift for themselves and bt
subject to competition that will force
them II sell their products as chesply al
abroad will vote the democratic ticket.
The republican national platform will
decIsre as former ones have, for "the
principle of protection" and although
there may be a promise 10 revise the
tariff, there will be no direct promise
to revise it lower. How can the pro-
tsctive principle be perpetuat'd withou
continuing or even increasing the Presen
rates? Voters should not again be fooled
by promises unless specific reductions
are included.
