All agree that some tax should be laid upon many of them as a means of revenue. and all know that. to the extent to which this tax is imposed. advantage is given to the domestic producer. What I and those who concur with me desire is that these duties belaidin such a way as to raise sufficient funds for governmental support with the least burden upon the people. contending that such a levy will work inj stice to none and advance the real interests of the great body of our fellowcitizens. On the other hand. they who advocate the enhancement of the price of articles imported. so that the domestic manufacturer can compete with the foreign one. who. to use their language. employs" pauper labor." insist that by such a course we add to the wealth of the country by a development of its resources. This is the difference between us. Even if they are right in their statement of the effects of the policy. it does not follow that the Government would be warranted in producing such a desirable end by % violation of a principle of that equity which ought to be the foundatioustone of every political organization.
