If neither of these things be done, our revenue laws are substantially repealed; the sources, which supply our treasury, will be dried up; we shall have no money to carry on the government; the nation will become bankrupt before the next crop of corn is ripe.

The Post and other papers understood - those who object to higher taxes/tariffs are the ones paying them. Not those who benefit from them.
