"The tarifi question, as it affects the people, is really, how far shall domestic producers be encouraged to enter on industries in which they are unable to meet foreign competition? The very fact of their being unable to meet it shows that for some reason or other condi ticns are unfavorable. Domestic costs then are high; domestic producers are under a disadvantage. The free-trader says that this is prima facie an indication that the industry had better not be carried on within the country at all. . . . His opponent, the protectionist. in setting forth the equalizing notion as the ‘true’ rinciple, does not answer him. This princip e assumes at the very outset that any and every sort of domestic production is advantageous, and that there S no problem as to the limits within which we should keep in bolstering up industries that cannot stand without legislative aid."

"While. as we have shown above, this tax is, so far as the quality of directness is con oerned. essentially like the income tax of 189-}. it has numerous incidental difierences,——
notably the description of the tax as an excise upon the doing of business,—which the court may seize u n as the und of a distinction from the lollock case. The Spreckels case furnishes an excellent basis for such a dis tinction; and the language of the Pollock case concerning certain earlier cases reénforces this. . . .
“Whether the court will seize upon such a distinction to sustain this tax will depend very largely upon its opinion of the ultimate wisdom of the holding of the Pollock case. The difiiculty of harmonizing a decision upholding this statute and the Pollock case can hardly be unnoticed by the court. If the court were of opinion that the funda mental reasoning of the Pollock case is sound,
it would doubtless annul the new tax; but if the court views with disfavor the decision of the Pollock case, it can virtually overrule that case without seeming to do so, by relying upon the authorities last cited."
