REPUBLICAN COUNTY TICKE r,
Jury Commissioner,
GEORGE H. McC ARTS',
Milford Borongh.
The session of Congress just con
cluded demonstrated in a remarkable
degree the impossibility of enaoting
a tariff law in accordance with the
Republican national platform, that is,
making the duties equal the differ
ence between the cost of prodno'ion
at home and abroad plus a reasonnb'e
proSt for American industries, Willi
oat data bearing on various industries
otbtr than that furnished by protected
manufacturers whose personal profit
are dependent on the tariff and whose
views cannot be in any sense unbiased
Such manufacturers appear before the
committee of Congress and as-ert
that ahy reduction of the duties below
- the existing law will ruin their bus!
doss and throw thousands out of
work. The few who attempt to oon
trovert these statements are, natural
ly, less familiar with the details of
given industry than those engaged in
it and they are generally made to ap
pear ridiculous because ol that lack
of familiarity. The Senator or Rep
resentative dependen ton the tnana
factunrs In his district in large
measure for re-election is hardly in a
position to treat their statements with
incredulity It Is, therefore, Impera
tive that Congress should have some
offlicial data on which to act anl that,
above all, the President who, as Mr.
Talt has well said, has the entire
country U,r his constituency, should
possess that data also Only a tariff
commission of the type designed by
President Taft can furnish cuch data.
