Considering the economic aspect of the question. protective tariffs have been beneficial. We have observed the direct effect of them in raising the value of our farms and the standard of living of our people. We have noticed that. as a sequel. our neighbors from across the boundary have immigrated and settled in our country in such numbers that we had to build up against immigration powerful walls and barriers. Now almost everybody is in favor of the protective tariff. Of course. we must recognize that there are some who believe in what they call a competitive tariff. but the essential principle of protection is contained even in the competitive tariff.
