Massachusetts Farmers Suffer Under McKinley Tariff Critics Say
A speaker argues that high tariffs burden farmers while protecting industry. He cites drops in Massachusetts farm land value and livestock output from 1865 to 1885, declines in New England agriculture, and rising costs for consumers. He notes Western competition and shrinking export markets for breadstuffs, and argues McKinley tariff offers mock protection by raising duties on imports while exports remain dominant.
