a vigorous protest against the British
Chuncellor's increase in the' tea duties.
They naturally want to know why a pro-
duct of India, a British country, should
be made to bear a very heavy rate oi taxa-
tion, while the products of so many for-
eign countries are admitted to the British
markets free of duty. There is sound
sense and justice behind the Calcutta
protest. We trust the merchant sxpor»
ters there will make themselves heard.
Though different in kind.the high duty on
tea is as unjust and impolitlc as that
which caused the Bostonians of 130 years
ago to raise the memorable tes party .and
pitch the tea into the harbor. A British
Government that prefers the rights and
Interests of foreigners io those of British
subjects is uns orthy of the name. Such a
policy makes for dlsmebarment just ss a
policy cf mutual preference within the
Empire makts for union, consolidation
