Tariff Boosts Laborer Wages Says Gates in Washington
J W Gates of the American steel and wire company testifies before the industrial commission. He states his firm employs 36,000 workers, pays union wages, does not recognize the Amalga ted association, and credits protective tariff with allowing higher wages.

He also cites a promotional quip from J D Bridges of the Democrat in Lan caster NH.
