The Indianapolis Times thus con.
denses information on the subj ect ofths
tariff and the farmer:
In 1890, the value of the farm pro-
ducts was 50. GOO, 900 600, OF about thir
iY.five per cent. of the value of the
farms. Of this, eighty-six per cent was
marketed at home, and only fourteen
per cent. exported. This home market
was largely due TO the manufactures fos.
tered by the protective tariff. But this
is not the only way that the tariff pro
tects or helps the farmer, notwithstand

the fiscal year ending June 80. 1881, the
amOdnt of duties collected on imports
was $216, 13S, 91e. OF this amount $71,
945. 800, or nearly one-thiFd, was on az.

4 RECORD OF PROGRESS.

Philadelpeia Record: The reception
accorded to Miss Susan Il. Anthony in
England appears to have been one of
cordial welcome. The Englishwoman's
Review, in its July number, publishes
the full text of the address at Princes
halls Piccadilly, on the Both of June,
and commends it in terms OF considera-
BILE enthusiasm. The address itself was
creditable one, and its measurement

women has naturally given the women
suffragists in England sort of new in
" The Position Of Women IN America"
and devoted itself chiefly to the chan ges
wrought in woman's condition by the
events of the past forty five years. In
1910 cooking, sewing and factory work
were the only occupations open to
women. There was one woman mer-
chant in Philadelphia, whom Lucretia
Mott used to speak of with
pride and hope. AntOinette Brown
was then the only woman who had been

who was afterward famous as u sculptor,
went from college to college begging
admission to their anatomical lectures,
and in every direction woman found
barriers to her advancement beyond the
narrow limits which primitive civiliza-
ton had cast about her. This was the
situation forty years ago. To-day all
the avenues of progress are open to
woman. She may select her trade or
profession as freely as man. Women
are teachers, principals and professors
in institutions of learning. They are
doctors, lawyers, preachers, editors,
publishers, farmers, telegraphers. There
is scarcely a calling closed to them. 1t
is pleasant picture that Miss Anthony
drew for her London hearers, and one
that must haYe afforded her something
like sense of personal triumph. For,
view it as we may, we can never lose
sight of the fact that there is no indi-
vidual to whom the women of America
are more indebted for the splendid i'm
provement in their condition and cir.
/ C umstances than Susan b. Anthony.

pOr,unIty which those who set the fash

English miiliners this year are not at all

Princess of Wales in the matter Of bon

female pocket, and, indirectly, Ia those
of multiIudinous husbands and fathers,
pearing on a recent prominent public
occasion with simple snd inexpensive,
but very becoming, head covering. The
complaint of the milliners is sure in
dIcation that the example has been fol-
lowed. 1t may he claimed that an i'm
portant branch of female industry is de-
pressed in consequence. but people in
general can bear this misfortune with
considerable equanimity. the general
gain being so much greater than the
