A letter argues for tariff protection to support infant local manufacturers and farmers, claiming protection builds towns, pays taxes, and creates jobs. It counters free trade claims that clothing costs would fall and asserts New York and London wage and clothing dynamics, citing a New York Ledger piece titled A Well Dressed City and noting England’s push for free trade in America as a warning.
