Wage Earners and Tariff Theory on Woolen Cloaks
The article argues under 1883 and McKinley tariffs that woolen pile fabrics taxed at high rates burden poor workers, citing a Trenton mill strike and wage levels. It links tariffs to lower cloth quality and higher living costs for the working poor, framing Professor Wilson’s free trade critique as harmful to labor. It includes a coal trade comparison showing protective tariffs benefiting U S industry versus foreign reliance, citing 1891 production and consumption data.
