Book Description

Excerpt from Liberal Promises and Performances The Liberals came into power in June, 1896, with a declared policy, to substitute for the Conservative Tariff a sound fiscal policy, which, while not doing injustice to any class, would promote domestic and foreign trade and hasten the return of prosperity to our people. They had also-declared that the Tariff should be reduced to the needs of honest, economical, and efficient Government, that it should be so adjusted as to make free or bear as lightly as possible upon the necessaries of life, and should he so arranged as to pro mote freer trade with the whole world, particularly with Great Britain and the United States.
