Protection or Robbery.


To the Editor Of the Press.
The Argus says:
And what protection does the tariff give to
the farmers an Industrial interest thafoutnum-
hers ali others? The farmer who sends his
wheat. his butter, his beef his cheese, his ap-
pies to foreign market cannot use the money
which he gets for his products there in pur-
chase of the necessaries for his own use De-
cause when he lands them in his own country
the customs officer meets him with demand
for &c cents on every dollar he has thus ex-
pended abroad. This is an excellent and prof
liable arrangement for the manufacturers OF
clothing material, but it is robbery of the agri-
cultural interests in the shape OF unequal and
unjust taxation.
Well, now, am not learned in these mat
tiers. but it seems to me that what benefits the
general interests of the people benefits every
one. But why under heaven should want to
send the products of my farm over 1.-THE wild
waste of waters" thousands of miles for for
eign market, when can have good and sure
home market, near at hand. Take my own
case as an illustration of my meaning.
