with a proportionate reduction of the raw material duties this does not moan that au articles would bo taxed 25 per cent but that 25 per cent would be the standard rate thus when upper and lower canada had a 20 per cent tariff prior to confederation there wero numerous exceptions as in tbo case of liquors iron and steol sugar and raw materials eta but that was tho stand ard the industry which cannot live without more than 25 per cent protection plus tho natural protection it enjoys by reason of ihe distance of its foreign com petitors from this market ought to die in the public interest when the liberals left office in 1878 the standard rate of duty was 17 per cont the extra 14- would no more than provide tho addi tional revenue required by tho onormons lncreaso in tho debt nod
