GEN. JACKSON AND PROTECTION.
When Gen. Jackson was a candidate Tor
the Presidency in 1922, he was addressed
for the purpose OF ascertaining his views on
the subject Of protecting American Indus
try. From his reply we quote The follow
ing strong and patriotic language:
"Whai is the situation OF tie present
lmes-what is the situation Of the Agri
cullurlst} Where has The American Far
mer a market for his surplus products =
Except for cotton, he has neither foreign
nor home market. IL is time we should be
como more AmerIcanized, and instead Of
feeding paupers and laborers in Eugland,
feed our own, or else 10 short time, By
continuing our present policy, We shall be
rendered paupers ourselves"
