Tariff is a tax or certain charge nut
on products and manufactured articles
Imported into our country, to protect
and encourage our home manufac-
turics and products. The government
decided 10 put this tax on things i'm

that our home products and manufac-
cd articles might be able TO Compel c
With those Of other countries and also
10 help pay the expenses OF the gov

high tariff was needed at first to
give our home mnnufactors a start, hut
now IT is cnrlchinE them with the
money from our people. Labor In Eli
rope costs about one half what ii does
here. Consequently. tax that would
give our manufactors fair profit,
should be put on Imported articles.
Even such crops as peanuts can be
raised in Asia ana Africa and sent
here much cheaper than they can be
bought here such is the case with
orange. lemon and other fruit grow
crs Hence our farmers, i'm order that
they might sell their peanuts and make
fair profit. need a reasonable tariff.
Many things such as sowing ma :
chimes and agricultural Implements
have been sold by our manuflctors
cheaper in foreign markets than they
are here This shows that the tariff
on these things should hc lowered, be
cause they no longer need this pro
lection.
