The Cobden Club is an association organized, I presume, in the interest of the leading industries of Great Britain, and patriotically anxious to open the markets of America to an unlimited introduction of British manufactures, a step very important I doubt not to a country which raises neither the food which its people consume nor the cotton which they spin, and whose ch'ief exports are the products of its mills. In this service the Cobden Club does its work well. Encouraged by its civilities, ...an American citizen, the President of the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad, a gentleman who has been vastly enriched by the prosperity of a road engaged in transporting the agricultural products and coal of the West to the seaboard, and the manufactured cotton, wool and iron of the East to the Western mar- kets, and is carrying back and forth a busy population engaged in these industries, an especial recipient of the fruits of American prosperity, was induced to say at a dinner of the Club : "The agricultural interests are represented by half the population of the country, and those interests appreciate the great economies that will accrue to them, not only in the cost of the goods imported, but by the introduction of competition with domestic manufacture, instead of sustaining needlessly high costs through the present excessive protection rates.
