As to the complaint that we supply other countries cheaper than our own. it is toget the market. That is the way they do in Great Britain. It we give our market away and attempt then to compete against those great national trusts of Europe we will be helpless. we will be simply contributing to them. the immigration will go the other way. Take our tariff off and nobody would want to come here. We have a surplus of labor here now. and if the tariff was gone and there was no manufacturing to any considerable extent in this country no person in the United States could attempt to manufacture in competition with England. situated as she is with her vast army of customers behind her.
