Book excerpt: Excerpt from Protection in the United States: A Study of the Origin and Growth of the American Tariff System, and Its Economic and Social Influences Texas, Oregon, and California were added, the country was in control of a party whose leaders believed in a low tariff, and they maintained that tariff until the people grew tired of the business conditions which accompanied it; and removed them from power so effectually that a quarter of a century passed before they were again entrusted with office, even for a single presidential term. The area of the United States, an area practically equal to that of all Europe, gives it such a variety of climate, soil and production, agricultural, mineral and forest wealth. That each added section, with its new climate and power of production, offered a new reason for Protection as a means to develop manu facturing and enlarge the great home market. The development and retention of the home market has always been regarded as of equal importance with the development of a great manufacturing industry in the minds of the Supporters of the protective tariff policy.
