Grundy took the protective tariff as his theme again and referred to a statement said to have been made by Davis that "anyone could write a tariff law."

Philadelphia, the "City of. Brotherly Love," became the chief battle ground due to the fact that the Bohlen-Phillips combination has centered its fight there.
