As a student of constitutions, Joe Grundy, Pennsylvania high-protectionist, in his testimony before the Senate Lobby Investigating Committee. Madison, of course, was all right in his day, and as Joe so well observes, in making the Constitution he was probably doing the best he could under the circumstances; but it is hard luck for the "great reservoirs of wealth and taxation" like Pennsylvania to have their tariff making interrupted, in consequence of his misguided two-Senators per-state arrangement, by the too "vocal" representatives of the "backwoods commonwealths."
