This article presents information related to the survey on editors of magazine and newspapers in the U.S. to find the majority in favor of the tariff bill. Sixteen editors, including all but one answering in the States of Maine, Massachusetts, and Connecticut, say yes. The New Bedford (Massachusetts) Times, on the other hand, answers no. The Burlington (Vermont) Free Press believes that the tariff will not raise the cost "appreciably"; the Rutland (Vermont) Herald thinks that it "should stabilize prices"; and the Keene (New Hampshire) Sentinel "does not believe that it will raise cost to the extent that its opponents claim." On the most favorable showing, then, the score against the tariff on this count is sixteen to four.
