Many unhappy conditions can not be improved by legislation. Climate. seasons. soils. location. and management are outside the law. On the other hand. it is foolish to assert that legislation has not affected our economic situation. The echoes have scarcely ceased in this Chamber from the discussion of one such piece of legislation. No laboring man needs anyone to tell him the effects of millions of Immigrants on his wage scale and his standard of living. No railroad man needs to be told of the economic effect of the Adamon or the EschCummins laws. The tariff is possibly our oldest illustration.
