The Blessed Tariff on Wool.

Philadelphia Record: In 1867, when the high wool tariff went into effect, there were 5,117,148 sheep in the State of New York. Under the prostrating policy of taxing imported wools the number of sheep in that State has been reduced to 1,579,866, and the price of wool is lower than it has been in forty years.
