The Tariff Issue.

Outside of the i~ntricacies of the
differ ent schedules of the tariff,
purposely made obscure and difficult
tor voters to understand by the ke-
p%ublicans, the question of high or
low tariff is the real TACT at issue.
That plain issue everyone can COM
prehcnd. The present tariff was
- pe, .a.t3 ~ oiS..uu W pt~>>~L the
trusts anu manufacturers from for
elgn competition. and the question
OF raising revenue for the govern
ment was u S, condary consideration.
The Republican politicians when
connecting tie present tariff law to
suit the Trusts and protected mo-
nopolists rashly discarded the pre-
sumption that foreign countries,
when they found the schedules SO
prohibitive that they could not prof
tably export their products to this
country, would retaliate by insreas-
ing their rates of duties, so as to
prohibit the importation of Ameri-
can goods.
Foreigners want our wheat and
flour, our corn and meat and tobac-
co, and other products they do not
raise themselves, or do not produce
in sufficient quantities to supply their
own consumers. but they do not
want our manufactured goods TO
compete with their own like pro-
ducts. Such countries as Germany
France, Austria, Russia. and in fact
every country, but England, has
raised a higher tariff barrier to pre-
vent competition from the United
States. They declare, if you will
not trade with us, we will buy as
Ii tile as possible of you.
The trusts try to overcome their
foreign tariff barrier by selling at
much lower prices to the foreigners
than to our own people. The Euro
pean and other foreign markets are
loaded down with bargain counter
goods from the United States. while
trust prices here are still kept at the
top notch.
Therefore, the question the voters
Of the United States must decide at
the coming election, is whether they
are satisfied to pay high prices for
much they buy. or by reducing the
tariff participate in the reduced
prices that the foreigners enjov.
That is a very simple proposition to
vote upon. Those few voters who
benefit by Trust nigh prices will, of
course. vote to continue the Re-
publican party in power. Those
who think the trusts should shift
for themselves and be subject to
competition that will force them to
sell their products as cheaply as
abroad will vote the Democratic
ticket.
The Republican National platform
will declare as former ones have. for
"the principal of nro+cct:-~ "
