noticed However, it rather difficult thing to predict what
they will do before they get through What boon for the
country generally would be if they would just stay at home

There is entirely too much stake especially in the
Occur dAene district to take any chances in experimenting
with the tariff The present duty lead has afforded it such
protection that the mining industry local and national has
fourshed and the aborng prosperous reduction
OF the tariff lead would be disastrous not only to this district
but also to the surrounding country 1t would mean the i'm

which would be impossible overcome and eventually they
would have to close down of their inability to com

hundreds of American wokngmen in this district alone out OF
