Textile Tax Drama and Lawrence Strike Expose Tariff Fallacies
The piece criticizes Schedule K and high tariffs as hurting American workers while driving wages down and bringing in immigrant labor. It cites the Lawrence textile strike, detailing multi national crews and harsh conditions, and cites A P Gardner's immigration remarks to argue protectionist aims backfire. It also reports the death of James R. Gardner, a Confederate veteran and respected citizen.

Protecting American Labor and the High Tariff Tax
The text argues that steel tariffs are defended as protecting American workers while citing Louis D. Brandeis. It claims steel industry leaders and J. P. Morgan impose excessive tolls on labor, noting long American work hours compared with England and warning that such conditions harm workers and the race. It links Republican appeals to votes with protecting workers and farmers.
