Excerpt from Problems of to-Day: A Discussion of Protective Tariffs, Taxation, and Monopolies

HE present work consists of a series of papers written originally for the Baltimore Sun, and only slightly re vised and enlarged for republication. When I began my articles for the Sun I had no thought of gathering them together in book-form, and it is only after long hesitation that in response to requests from many people in different parts of the country I have consented to do so. Did I have sufficient time to subject the articles to a thorough revision, there would be less cause for my hesitation, but I have not the requisite time at present.

Every one knows the conditions under which articles are written for a popular newspaper. They must appeal to all sorts and conditions of men, to the bank president and merchant prince as well as to the artisan, to the mechanic, and to the unskilled day-laborer.
