This matter of the protective tariff is. when you come to bring it to its last analysis. but a correction of certain existing inequalities and wrongs. En gland has piled up. accumulated a population many of whom she keeps uder her policies in such a degree of poverty and distress that they cannot get money to take them to the seaboard to emigrate. We have here vast fields. vast natural resources awaiting development. waste places in this mighty continent. Now a man in Iowa or Minnesota raises abarrelof flour. and it costs him what is equivalent to three more to rake that one barrel of dour to England and exehano it for a suit of clothes.
