THE FARMERS ALLIANCE
That Moctaage

The settler in Dakota has battled
with storms. hail, and rain; with dry
weather and scarcity of water; with
hlgh freight rates and low prices for
farm products; but all these are small
IN comparison to that mortgage on
his stock or the one that holds his
farm. Many Of US came here with
our ideas too high, expecting to raise
big crops and get far prices. The re-
verse has been the result. Things
have gone from bad to worse until
"That mortgage" has been the pana-
cea. Slace our names have been signed
to that instrument interest from 10
per cent per annum tod per cent a
month has been squeezing out the hard
earnings of honest labor. Flax has
been sown costing S1.50 per bushel
The crop, six bushe. per acre, has been
put or the market insthe fall at 65 to
20 cents per bushel. Wheat has been
put on with the same result. s'That
mortgage still stands on the county
records. The farmer has worked early
and late, continuing,in the busy season
until The moon and stars have poured
their glitterlng brightness down on
his weary frame. Yet that never dy-
ing instrument stares him in the face.
He has laid himself down exhausted
thinking, by rest and sleep to dispel
the dependency resting upon himself
and family. and to his sorrow tbs
bright morning SUI rises to find llln.
hustling to raise the interest due. as
the Bankers letter states, unless it is
forthcoming the sheriff VIII proceed
to foreclose. He has goue to church
on Sunday, laid aside lyis worldly care S
and listened attentively to the plant
i've discourse of the minister and has
been hopeful after hearing the earnest
prayer for the down-trodden and OPP
pressed But on Monday morning his
fancied hope sinks beneath the clouds
of oblivion as hesees the county sher-
itf driving up to take chaage of the
stock mentioned in THAT mortgage "
Fellow farmer, do the best you can;
pay Off as fast as possible, make it a
rule from now on, to give no more
mortgages, vote for men going to the
legislature, who will work for measures
that will tend to better your condi-
ton.

GtIe Gs1eldgsa1e&


A reader Of tho INTELLIGEScER desires
ibijrms.lon abou. the tariG policy oil Great
Britain. He desires particularly to know
whether that country imposes any duties
WhslEosyer on imports.
These arc very pertinent questions, and
tho IaTELLlGRScER is glad to answer them'
the moro so since there is very general
impression that Great Britain pusues q
poIlcy Of absolute ires trade. In fact
Gres. Britain has never entirely recovered
from tho practice, followed for 500 yesrs
with persistent viRor, Of leVying customa
duties wherever she has thought it TO be
to her advantage 30 to do.
Great British raises in round numborr
500 100000 d year from duties on i'm
ports. Her tariff law occupies very little
pplca, bat it recognizes the protective
principle, whatever maybe said by pro
lessons OF political economy on this side Of
the ocean or that.
For example, uumRnut4c!ured tobacco
plys q dasy Of from IS 81 70 81 lO1 per
pound; cigars, containing iab1r aS we'll as
tobacco, pay 81 81 per pound. The pro-
tectiys principle, as applied 10 tobacco
does not stop here, for in addition to these
specific duties already named tobacco
nuat pay uttll another duty OF 80 I'd
per cent. II 1t were not designed to pro-
tect the B1itish labor engsSsd in working
up the raw tobacco into manufactured
forns, the duty, would be the same Of
manufactured Rs on manufactured TO-
bsCco.
Duties are levied also on beer, spirits,
playing cards, Chicory, chloral hydrate,
chloroiorm, cocoa, manufactured cocoa
,sying more than manufactured coffee,
roasted or ground coffee paying more than
raw coffee; collidion, sulphuric other,
iodide Of ethyl, fruit, almonds and dates
excepted; naphths or methylic alcohol;
gold and silver plate; tea; varniDh con-
tanning spirits.
It will be observed from the above that
the dutiblo List contains the articles tea
and coffee, which In this country have
long been on the free list. Tea and coffee
are regarded 90 among the mechanics Of
life, ard tho American people would re-
volt against the imposition upon them OF
dutieB to which the people Of Great
Britain Gle GO accustomed that to pay
them has become second nature. The
ea!d duties do not protect any Euglish in
dust1iea, for tea and coffee can not be pro-
ducGd in tho British Isles. These dutiea
ere levied "ior revenue only" and the
Americans regarded them as so burden
some That they hAstened to throw then
Of at the eHrliest opportunity.
The Britieh tariff Ia very far from being
model for American imitation, and yet,
contrary 10 tho frantic professions Of the
theoretical iree trsdsrF, Great Britain does
recognise, as We have shown, the protective
principle. The recognition is not enough
to satisfy u pfotectionist, but it is enough
to worry the American free trader who
poirto 10 Great Britain Rs proof Of the
euccecu Of etmou pure policy Of free
trade.
