industries, but shall protect them from
foreign competition.
Naturally there may be some duties
that are not adjusted perfectly, but as
no two of us could agree on the diff
ferences required to make them per-
feet, would it not be better and safer
to leave the subject with our ablest
statesmen and with those who have
made it a lifelong study? Some time
it may be well to have a standing
court or commission that shall hold
hearings every few years and shall
correct any bad insists, should any be
found, but there should not be any
radical or wholesale change contem-
plated at any one time, for that would
paralyze or stagnate the general bust
ness.
England is quite unique in having
practically no import duties, while
some of her colonies go the limit the
other way. For instance New Zealand,
the much Wanted single tax land, gets
three fourths Of her tax receipts from
customs, and there is so little left to
collect that she could almost get it by
passing around the hat. But England
will probably be driven to high tariff

Gle; she believes very strongly in he
reditary government by kings, yet the
commons wishes to have absolute con-
troll of the finances and is trying to
throw overheard the house of lords,
which contains the highest hereditary
distinction and craftsmanship Surely,
her statesmen are in a pitiable pre-
dicament, for they are not only dis
tracted by internal dissensions and
quarrels, but they are pursued and
torn, and tortured by the suffragettes.
But we are told that the tariff is
one of the causes of the high cost of
living, and so it is: so are all taxes,
and the higher we are taxed, so much
the higher will be the expense of our
living; but if we did not get the funds
for running the government from the
tariff (and who can suggest better
way?), we should have to get them
