What is Free Trade And Why It Matters In Politics

This excerpt debates the meanings of free trade and protection, tracing how politicians label tariffs. It argues trade is free when parties face minimal, uncontrollable hindrances, noting revenue duties and freight taxes alike shape the economy. It also suggests tariffs serve revenue and protection differently across eras.

All Sorts and Riddles in a Weathered City Page

A jumbled column items mix playful quips and social notes about elections, fashion, marriage, and manners. It references St John’s water age debates, Minnie Palmer, Belva Lockwood, and a “Window watch” novelty. The piece teases readers to register, vote, and notice shifting social norms while weaving in jokes about overcoats, straw hats, and gossipy scenes from local life.

Free Trade and Protection Across Mass and Iowa Exchange

The piece argues protection rises with railway and ship taxes, shielding Massachusetts and Iowa producers from each other and from foreign goods. It cites customs duties of 15 to 20 percent to offset wage differences, critiques post-1862 government protection of monopolies, and calls for freer trade with Brazil and South America while preserving essential protections.
