tarlf : system by its opponents is
that American products nio fre
quently Hold to foreign consumers
for lees than they are sold nt lionu- .
The same objection might bo urged
against the bargain counter s.iles of
the American merchani. lit : hi : * n
surplus and cannot hold it
over until the next ncnflnn , to bo
pui up In competition with new
mid f refill goodt ? , c-ven of thu Hamc

The bargain day ealca of the
merchant do not alfect thn nalnrcs
of Ins employee , they are of uome
bent'lit to theRe who buy , and al
though they may not add U the
ptolil Hide of the merchant's account
they nt least Hive him from lors.
The manufacturer cannot exactly
estimate the quantity of goods lit
can Hell during the t canon , but ho
known ho imiht have enough , and
ho furthermore knows that bo is in
duty bound to furniJt IUB cmploycn
full employment , and therefore ieta
his milh go full time. If ho I'm t\
