Governor Ames Calls Tariff Fight a Life or Death Issue
In a long corrective correspondence from North Easton Massachusetts Governor Ames argues that free raw materials for iron manufacturing is essential to New England’s survival. He insists the issue transcends politics and cites closures of Old Colony Works Fall River Somerset East Weymouth and other mills due to high duties. He supports free pig iron and coal, argues protection works unevenly, and notes bipartisan support among many prominent iron men. The letter frames the tariff dispute as a regional crisis with potential policy change possible despite House delays.
