Is there a fair way in which to do so? We are reminded of certain stabilizing influences for industry generally and for labor. Our attention is called to the immigration laws. which protect labor against the competition that would be caused by the influx of other laborers. We have our special attention attracted to the tariff in so far as it is used as a device to protect our industries against competition from abroad. In the farm sections we note that there are tariff duties upon all farm products. but on investigation we find that such duty seems to do little or no good in so far as increasing prices is concerned in such crops or products of which we have an exportable surplus.
