that even the debaters often appear
to be ignorant of their subject and
those who attempt to follow them
are led into bewlderment. There
should be a way of getting at least
conclusive and dependable data. The
tariff may not be taken out of politics
so long as the theories of tariff for
revenue only and tariff for revenue
and protection are opposed. Until
then it will be extremely difficult if
not impossible to acquaint the public
with all the facts. The proof of the
pudding must be determined by the
eating. This is the way we have
determined in the past and will this
time. The committee of conference
into whose hands the bill now pass
es may wrangle long and Justify.
Whether it will be to good purpose
we shall know sometime next year.
But we have firm faith, based on the
experience with Republican tariffs in
the past, that the resultant of all
this pickering over schedules will
prove a vast Improvement over the
Democratic tariff.

Wherein is Youth SO sadly def
