He succeeded in getting the increase he wanted. Now he has learned that this increase he succeeded in getting in the name of American labor and American manufacturers is going to result in the ruination of his business. because. he says. this tariff will be an embargo. that matches can not be brought in from abroad. that the foreign companies will come over here and build factories. and those factories will put the domestic factories out of business. When they come over here they will be subject to our labor laws and our immigration laws. and so. after all. this bugbear of foreign labor which gave them the nightmare and scared them to death has no effect whatever now. He is afraid now of being put out of business in the United States. this side of the tariff wall. by these fellows coming over here and employing labor to compete with him.
