Therefore. as laborsaving devices are perfected and adopted from. time to time. labor is turned loose. The Senator from Utah is the high priest of the protective tariff. We have been met with the argument upon this floor every time the question has been brought up that we were not justified in demanding that American labor should be put on a footing with the pauper labor of Europe. Now. according to the Senators argument. Europe at least gives employment to her socalled pauper labor. while our protective and imperialistic manufacturers turn laboring men out on the street. I presume that we will be asked to keep the tariff up not in order to protect American labor but to protect and improve laborsaving devices. That is the logic of the situation.
