Putting barley on the free list might
be thought to be in the interest of the
brewers, but this is not true apparently,
for the bill provides for a much higher
duty on broken rice than is now col
lected. The most important of these
items, as far as our district is con-
cerned, is flax seed. 1t is safe to say
that our crop last year exceeded $780,,
600 bushels in the twenty counties COM
prising the Second district. 1t was
nearly 100000 in 1885. This crop
Melted our farmers just exactly what
the india flax seed was worth in New
York with Is cents bushel added for
duty, less small allowance on freight.
In other words, the tariff enhanced our
flax seed crop 100000 at very moder-
ate estimate. A great deal has been
said i'll the papers about the existence of
A LIMITED OIL TRUST.
AS to what the facts are, | do not
know. But if there is such trust it
can be und0ne very readily. The tariff
on the oil is much higher in proportion
than it is ON the seed, viz: 25 cents per
gallon. A bushel of seed makes two
and One-half gallons of oil. The oil
cake pays for the manufacture, or nearly
so. 1t will be seen, therefore, that the
protection on bushel of seed is only Is
cents, but one the same seed converted
into oil it is 621s cents. This is unfair
to the farmer and to the public. called
the attention of the members of the
committee on ways and means to this
fact, and suggested that the tariff on the
oil be reduced to 10 cents gallon, and
left at ID cents on the seed. This in my
opinion would be fair to all concerned,
and would leave no margin to build
trust on. The committee disregarded
my suggestion, but it has placed linseed
oil on the tariff list again, at 10 cents a
gallon, in the bill as reported to the
house. Is this fair to the farmer? But
how does the bill affect the Southern
farmer? OF the productions on which
he is protected we imported as follows
in the last fiscal year; and | indicate the
per cent duty which the Mills bill ac-
corded him,

A Curious Spectacle.

The GLOBE sizes Seheffer up correctly

the Democrats running A. Scheffer, and
the Republicans going cunning with
Knute Nelson, wouldn't Minnesota be a
political spectacle for gods and men.

his head is vast mountain of thought,

inexhaustible mind of ideas. But with
all this, if he persistently pursues his
present course on the tariff measure
there will not be enough of him left for
sharp-shooter to use for a target.
