In other words, should ‘the same purchase be made in Eng- land, where there is no tariff on woolens, the woman would receive in this country. ‘ | This is because of the Payne-Aldrich |ad valorem tariff of 105 per cent on this class of goods. When the Demo- crats came into power in the House of Representatives they framed a bill re- ducing the tax on woolens nearly 40 percent. Had this bill been permit- ted to become a law the price of woolens would have been reduced to every consumer in the United States. But President Taft vetoed the bill. The Democratic majority of the House now presents the bill again. - The President, however, will have less excuse to veto the measure than the same amount and quality of dress ; | goods for $4.87 that she pays $10 for ; introduced wool bill it will be for the ment of a few greedy millionaire | same reason, and the people will so | woolen trust magnates?

Jost’s fight was based on Brown’s “Do Nothing’’ administration, in two years of which, he declared, the city’s deficit above appropriations was in- creased from $180,000 to more. than $650,000.
