Judge Foraker Defends Tariff Policy at County Convention
Judge Foraker denounces free trade while defending a protective tariff as essential to a home market for farmers and manufacturers. He argues Liverpool prices do not fix domestic rates, cites steel rails, carriage axles, and local industry growth, and mocks Judge Hoadly’s free trade critique as duplicitous.

Is a Protective Tariff Constitutional Opinion by Judge Lawrence
A long editorial from Washington says Judge Lawrence defends protective tariffs against claims they overreach. It argues Congress can regulate commerce broadly, including tariffs for revenue and protection, citing Gibbons v Ogden and U S v Marigold, and recounts Madison’s early tariff discussions and the 1790 tariff act to show historical support.
