A call by industrialists for protection to the Iron Industry, with Erastus Corning and other prominent representatives of the manufacturing interests participating. As the result of the current system's relaxed trade barriers, "the poorest qualities of iron are largely introduced to the great injury of the country, in place of the more useful and better qualities, these being more highly priced."
