could be more advantageous to the

Many ardent advocates of the propos

United States tariff as the bjst argu

a great difference between the workings
of such a tariff In various countries.

good deal of discussion which was car
ried on partly In Interviews and finally
Jn writing. The question In debate
was whether the new clause, tho one
above quoted would survive the treaty,
a point which Judge Estce seems to
have settled in his own mind. Secre
tary Bayard on the other hand wrote
to H. A. P. Carter, the Hawaiian Envoy

23. 18S7:
