Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Protection Against Free Trade: Speech of Hon. Wm; P. Frye, of Maine, on the President´s Message, in the Senate of the United States, January 23, 1888 The President pro tempore. If there be no further morning business, that order is closed. Mr. Frye. I move to take from the table the motion of the Senator from Ohio [Mr. Sherman] to refer the annual message of the President of the United States to the Committee on Finance. The President pro tempore. The Senator from Maine moves that the Senate now proceed to the consideration of the motion of the Senator from Ohio, that the Presidents annual message be referred to the Committee on Finance. The motion was agreed to; and the Senate resumed the consideration of the motion to refer. Mr. Frye said: Mr. President: The President of the United States, in his annual message, has thrown down the gauntlet of "free trade," with, I admit, a thin veneer of disguise - too thin, however, to deceive the people. His remarkable declaration of policy has, of course, been received in England with undisguised joy. She has been seeking our markets with a persistency that never tired, a courage that never failed, a faith never hopeless, though for a quarter of a century the defenses against her aggressions have been formidable, and now she hails with -unconcealed delight the announcement that these defenses are to be razed. Listen to the comments of her press congratulating her people, and at the same time mercilessly stripping off the Presidents flimsy disguises: [From the Saturday Review.] It may be taken for granted that the President has not acted without previously consulting the leaders of the Democratic party and securing their approval. He and they have taken upagain the old free-trade polio of the South Carolina politicians, unconnected with what, in the jargon of American politics, was called the sectional question. [From The Sepectator.] His terse and telling message has struck a blow at American protection such as could never have been struck by any fair-trade league, such, indeed, as would have been greatly weakened by the operations of any fair-trade league He has fired a shot at the protectionists which will be all the more effective for his refusal to discuss the theoretic issue.
