I believe prosperity will soon be restored. but when we need increased revenue and catl incidentally start into new life a hundred Aimiericain indusurics. the friends of the importers of foreign goods plead for the cheap products of pauper labor abroad. and standing in the gateway of trade refuse tim entrance of a fair competition to oir own artisans and sotis of toil. Against this wrong I protest in the name of all the American pecople.
