...society, has been very much larger. It is sometimes argued that so long as the membership of the society is large enough to keep it in existence, those who have not joined can reap the full benefit of the society, i. e., the lowering of prices, while they need not pay the yearly dues of two dollars. But this is not strictly true, for the larger the membership of the society the lower prices can fall. Besides there is a sound of selfishness in this, for, while such men enjoy to a certain extent the benefits of the society, they...
...second year of its existence with a capital of $363.86. Thus it is placed on a surer foundation and a margin is afforded through which the sphere of usefulness of the society may be extended.

The protectionists would do well if they could secure a privileged position for their doctrines and their speakers. They need such extraneous support. 'Dogmatism' is a big word. It is easy to sling it about. It answers no facts or arguments. The protectionists fall back on authority. Henry Clay believed in protection. Lincoln signed the tariff bill. Charles Sumner voted for it, etc. I have never debated all that rubbish...
