Lawyer Old
Well, Farmer Grimes, how goes the finest
And how IS your crop of have
With well-tilled farm and a well-hlled barn
Soon Mr MlIls With his Free-trade bills
Will cheaper what you buy,
Their pay to be 50 high.
For straight Free Trade our Cleveland mada
His message bold and plain,
And this. OF course. you will ndorse.
And vote for him again.
Farmer Grimes
Well. Lawyer Old. II may seem bold,
To say cant agree
With Mr.. Mills and HIS Free trade bills
Protection Just suits me.
Our fOcks of sheep cannot keep
Unless the wool IS high.
With foreign wheat we can't compete,
And don't propose 20 try.
We must depend on the farmers friend,
market close and Nigh
And the little mill beyond the hill
Our products freely buy.
Our milk we SELL our hay as wel
And get the ready cash.
And a market find for every kind
OF early garden Trash.
Mill-OwnerS say PrOtcctlon's way
Just keeps them their feet.
With the lOw-priced hands Of foreign laEH
They could not now compete.
Now mills don't run just for the fun
OF losing day by day.
And these Free-tradc bills will close the milx
OR reduce the wOrkman's pay.
In vain toll II once you spoil
The markets where SELL
We may be slow but farmers know
FREQ Trade will do this we'll
So with your leave, don't believe
In the message Cleveland wrote.
For TppecanOc and Tariff. too
| shall most surely vote.
