Excerpt from The Farmers Tariff Manual, by a Farmer The author has no new theories to advance, no new facts to offer. He has aimed to present in available form such true theories as are accepted by students of economic science, and so much of the false theories regarding tariffs, now popularly current, as the limits of the work allow room to exhibit and refute. An array of historical facts and of statistics, is also presented which may be verified by any one having the facilities, the time, and the inclination. The author has tried, and in this he thinks he has been successful, to present a greater amount of information relating to the theories, the facts, and the effects of tariff legislation than is to be found elsewhere in the same compass, or for many times the same expense. That the "Citizen Sovereign" of this country who reads this book may be able to vote more intelligently on the most important and far-reaching financial question of modem times, is the author's earnest hope.
