As the Tariff goes mp the price Of PRODUCE
Onoc dnnra1

As the Tariff goes mp the price Of Produce
goes doa0D.
We call upon the people 10 mark the fact, that
as the Tariff goes up the price of produce goes
down Since the passage of the Tariff law of
1912 the price Of cotton has been loucer than it
has been at any time since 1880. 1t is stated,
and can be proved, that the twelve crops preced-
ing that of 1912 were forty per cent higher than
the last two crops. These are facts, and with
PLAIN men one fact ought to be worth more than
thousand theories
Under the present tariff every thing which the
farmer has to sell is reduced in price, whilst every
thing he purchases is advanced in price, Farm
ers of North Carolina, is not this so?
Remember at the ballot-box that James K. Polk
is in favor of reducing these taxes upon the pco-
pie and their produce, but that Henry Clay saws
he would regard any modification or alteration of
the present tariff as " great national calan,itv"
Choose ye between high taxes and low prices for
your produce, and low taxes and high prices for
your produce.
