Letter from William Barnes to Thomas Collier Platt

Letter from William Barnes to Thomas Collier Platt

William Barnes predicts future Republican infighting over the tariff question. For this reason, he thinks that President Roosevelt should come up with a plan for the tariff and then have it published in leading newspapers. There is quite a bit of class difference in regard to opinion on the tariff. The wealthy want a lower tariff. Barnes is concerned that the recent election bodes badly for the future, even though some think it was just related to local politics.
