Apparently the gentleman wants to see the whole 100 per cent imported. If 20 per cent is not enough to make competition. to prevent a trust from having a monopoly. how much does the gentleman want to see imported? If a tariff of less than 10 per cent against the coolie employees of India is too much. then I agree that you might as well have nothing. If you strike out this. it simply drives the business. the manufacture. from the United States to India. and that. apparently. is the intention of the Democratic Party. They apparently want to drive these employees in Ludlow and in Brooklyn and In Indiana into some other employment.
