I should surely think that it would decrease the income from that source at least 20 per cent. Here you have the beauties of this project unveiled. Your revenues are reduced. your interest. your sinking fund. your pensionlist. your current expenditures all to be met. your revenues reduced. and the people not at all relieved. articles now coming in and paying their way into the Treasury excluded and a monopoly given to the home manufacturer against the home consumer. and all in the name of protecting labor (which is not protected) against the pauper labor of Europe. Br. President. ingenious theories and plausible fhllacies may be advanced in favor of the protective system. but they will not stand the test of justice. fair dealing between man and man. and right reason.
