McKinley at Beatrice Denounces Democratic Tariff Critique
In Beatrice Nebraska Governor William McKinley rails against the Democratic platform’s tariff stance. He argues protection benefits farmers by expanding domestic demand and stresses the need to favor American workers and consumers over foreign markets.
Tariff Policy Expands Farm Market and Factory Demand
The speaker argues that domestic workers unable to find jobs in factories will seek work elsewhere and become competitors. New industries will boost the farmer’s home market by creating profitable customers, with the tariff law designed to secure exclusive market access and encourage industries that raise factory demand and labor.
