Excerpt from Speech of Hon. Justin S. Morrill: Delivered in the Senate of the United States, December 8, 1881 Of its kind in our history, and from which an unexampled growth of varied industries has risen up, should be made with much circumspection, after deliberate consideration, by just and friendly hands, and not by ill-informed and reckless revolutionists. When our recent great army was disbanded, war taxes were also largely dismissed, and we have now, and certainly shall have hereafter, no unlimited margin for slash ing experiments.

Our normal condition, modified by national growth, must be resumed. We are to consider how much, if any, of internal revenue can be relinquished, and next where and how the tariff can be safely and wisely revised, so as to leave it prop erly productive and in harmony with all interests, preserving the proper equilibrium among the different branches of trade, and just to every section of the country.
