Excerpt from The Sugar Duties: An Examination of the Letter Addressed by Edmund Potter, M. P. To the Rt. Hon. W. E. Gladstone, M. P This is of course naked protection, but the object sought is to encourage the loaf, and finer raw sugars, and to discourage and prohibit. The remainder: but the protectionist will say Would not such a law give the consumer a better sugar, excluding from consideration the price he would have to pay for it? Certainly not. The cousu mer does not eat the jaggery or the low sugar any more than he wears cotton wool. The refiner removes the extraneous matter, and presents the sugar in a state of purity and beauty, like silver separated from its dross. This sugar is superior to the best raw that the tropics can yield, and is consequently preferred by the consumer, who would thus be injured by the uniform duty.
