Why I Am A Protectionist by Henry Metcalf
A long personal defense of protective tariffs by Henry Metcalf of Pawtucket Alabama lines out beliefs that protection raises workers’ living standards, fosters national independence, and prevents liquor-related crime while defending tariff policy amid 1890s political debates. He cites Michigan local option, McKinley tariff impacts, and The Economist commentary on free trade. He argues protection benefits weave through manufacturing, labor, and economy.
