ABSTRACT
A Tariff Reform Government will be called upon to deal with the evils that exist in the United Kingdom, and it is the evils that exist in the United Kingdom to which Tariff Reformers ought to direct the attention of the electorate first and foremost. It is impossible to record the multitudinous promises that have been made in the name of Tariff Reform to bring to working men benefits that it was admitted "no fiscal system" could bring. The publications of the Tariff Reformers print in big type phrases on the subject almost as various as those that fell from Mr. Chamberlain's lips. Journalistic assistance of the kind so fervently offered by the Birmingham paper has been one of the most trying embarrassments of the Tariff Reform search for a work and wages formula. Protectionists might safely promise that Tariff Reform would not leave the hop-farmer in the lurch like that.
