McKinley tariff claims debunked by price comparisons
The piece criticizes a protectionist list claiming lower prices under McKinley. It argues most cotton cloth prices were unchanged or higher, most drugs and oils stayed the same, and sugar shifts reflect tax removal, not McKinley price changes. A tariff study booklet is recommended to convert duties to ad valorem terms for clarity.
