If the Senator from Missouri. after making a careful calculation. should find that the difference in the price of these dredges was the difference in wages between that paid in Europe and that paid in America. would he still favor the purchase of foreignmade dredges. when at least $500.000 of the money we areto invest in these two is labor and niot over $200.000 of it is material and that material has to be prepared and is labor? If the Senator wants to buy these foreign manufactured articles and cut out American labor. and compel American labor to come down to the price of the pauper labor in Europe. I should like to have him state so on the floor of the Senate.
