For the first time in American history an American tariff bill stipulates protection of American labor in its title. Again he says: There are those who assail the bill as a whole. Most of those who level their broadside attacks pretend to be friends of labor. Labor has altogether too much of that kind of friendship. Then he closes by saying: As against the importers who are purely middlemen. and as against the international bankers. it is time the masses of the American people. the great army of those who work for wages. be heard and protected. To stop immigration is of little avail. if the wouldbe immigrant may send his competition through his manufactured output.
