wont into ofled tho lowest average prlco
wool over leached was A'2 cents per pound
in 181!); after and under tho tariff k went
down to an average oi L'o cents for the
wool product of the United States. In
1807 tlio States East of the Mississippi
jiossessed about .14,500,000 sheep, alter
nvo years of thw tariff, viz, In 1871', thev

Does this look as though tho protective

As to tho Immediate cfTeet of tho tariir
on tho price oi wool, it seems to mo to
have a tendency to lower tho prlco rather
than the reverse, becauso It is necessary
to havo tho foreign wool in order that our
own may-do manufactured. To sav that
a tarltron wool increases tho prlco, is Hko
paying mat a mnii on cotton or silk will
increase tho prlco of the domestic wool
product, for cotton and silk urn Imtli
mixed with wool toproeuro certain fabrics ;
so witli foreign wool, it is of n different
libra and our looms must havo it to thu
extent of ulwut 114,000.000 lbs. anntiallv
to work up tho l.'80,000,000 lbs. of tho
domestic product.
And now let us examine this a llttln
closer. This 114,000,000 lbs. of foreign
wool pays a duty of 10 cents jier jiouiid,
henco It costs our looms inoro to nroducu
a yard of cloth than it does to countries
that havo freo trade in this staple, ami
