Some of the high tariff organs are
publishing an extract from a speech of
Hon. Abram S. Hewett, to controvert
a statement recently made by Senator
Vance, in regard to the labor cost in
a ton of pig iron. In the Congres
sional Record are to be found many
able and instructive speeches by Mr.
Hewett, which the organs might pub
lish with great profit to their readers,
whom they have fed upon the dry
husks of protection fallacies lo these
many years.
