The Troy press gives the following examples of the workings of high and low tariff: England has the lowest tariff in all Európe and the highest wages are paid there. Australia is a free trade continent. Wages are higher there than anywhere else on earth. The Canadian tariff is higher than ours. Wages are lower in Canada than they are here. The Mexican tariff is much higher than ours. A good man, f he can get work, can earn 25 cents a day in Mexico, This is even lower than Mr. Harrison's standard, for he was willing to allow $1 a day to a workingman.
