as dug from the mines OF our ooun.

| IoVulsss. .SO40, lSS,
This is an increase OF wealth to the
people OF the United States of over
forty-fve million dollars annually during
the fourteen years of free trade from q
native source which had previously
yielded a scant half million dol
lars annually. The figures are
conclusive that it was not
free trade that gave a moderate degree
OF prosperity during the free trade
period ending with 1860, but the sudden
yield in hard dollars from the rock rib.
bed treasure box of the golden slope.
ln spite OF free trade, the wealth OF the
country increased. Free trade could not
carry it out of the country quite SO fast
as it was produced. Yet we are aware
that notwithstanding this marvellous
increase in material wealth the free trade
period under discussion was burdened in
,ts closing years with financial disaster.
Those OF us who are old enough remem.
Der the crash of 1S57-the oataclysm
| which told us that forty-fve million
year increase from mines was not enough
to turn the balance of trade in our fa-
vor while the yawning gullet of free
trade was swallowing our precious pro.
duct into foreign stomach.
So with the dawn OF republican
supremacy system of protective tariff
was inaugurated and has since survived
the assaults of its democratic enemies.
During the free trade period closing
with 1860 the United States exported
$500. .00O,O 900 of gold and silver more than
they imported. During the past four.
teen years (Which dates back 20 the time
the country had recovered from the
effects of the war; under protective
policy the United States have imported
in gold aud silver $3.50 100000 more than
they exported. The effect Is plain. Our
money stays ct home. The last report
of the secretary OF the treasury shows
that there was in this country in coined
gold $654, 500 ,355 end IN other coin
1852 ,793 ,566-a total OF ST. ,007, ,3i3,921
This aggregate has increased more than
hundred million dollars since the re-
port was issued. The record shows that
in 1861. the clcse of the free trade period,
after producing over $652 .0C0 900 in gold
and silver in fourteen years, our treas
ury mote we're sold at discount OF over
eleven per cent. The conclusion is in
evitable that but for the discovery of
California gold the country would have
been bankrupt before 1861 as the result
OF its FREE trade experiences.
In the light of these figures which is
pIefereble-s free trade policy or pro-
tective policy?

.Dakota's Opportunity,

Boston journal: The Dakota repub-
licans have raised o campaign fund of
$4,000, and since it will be OF no use to
spend the money IN the territory, they
are going to carry out their purpose to
sending fifty Dakota orators into the
close states and congressional districts
to labor for Harrison and protection.
In this way they will assist the national
cause, and at the same time help to
secure republican majority in the house
of representatives. which will insure the
admission of Dakota to the union. Ds.
keta may thus be enabled to take o
revenge which the Bourbons did not
dream of.

For County Commissioners,
Sd Distriot-JAOOB BRAUCH,
4th DIstrict-JOHN o. AASETH.

1t ls the STOCK argument of free trade
democracy, through Its newspapers an d
its orators, that during the tariff for
revenue period Tor what is popuIarly
known as the free trade period) between
1916 and 1860 this country was in an
exceedingly prosperous condition. This
period is chosen by the freq traders as
an illustrative period for the oetensible
reason thatit embraces series of years
from which the best example can be-
drawn, the country during previous free
trade periods having been new in its
governmental and industrial experiment
and therefore not in condition 70 fur
nlsh fair example of its internal csps-
bilities under any system of taxation
either for revenue merely or for revenue
and protection. This is the os.ensible
reason. The real reason, however, is
that the period from 1916 to 1850 gave
to the United States the quickening in
huenoe of marvellous treasure discoveries
along its western coast. So potent were
the results of these discoveries that in
spite OF the existence OF @ free trade
policy the country was prosperous, be-
cause it could not we'll help being pros
porous with the rich mines of California
yielding their wealth to replenish the
almost exhausted Golfers Of the nation
and the nations people. How much
more prosperous it would have been
with this sudden outpourlng OF gold
had the nation been under protective
tariff system during the period under
discussion, We can readily Judge from ex.
perience since 1860 and since the close Of
the war of the free traders permitted us
to renew the work OF strengthening
national slnews.
There are not many who know what
powerful factor the then newly discover
ed gold of the California mines was in
holding this country back from threaten.
ed bankruptcy and giving it new lease
of life during NEST critical perlod OF
free trade experiment. Some figures
have recently come to hand bearing
upon the subject. They were procured
by Yankton man from the secretary OF
the national republican committee, in
to q request for information.
He has permitted us to use them. They
relate wholly to the gold and silver pro-
duct OF this country. They show that
from 1892 to 1884 there was mined in
this county in gold $l4 100000 and no
silver. That from 1884 to 1916 there was
mined in gold S9,147, ,6S4 and in silver
100000. This gives total OF S23 ,447.-
6s4 of precious metal taken from the
mines in the United States from the
of constitutional history down
to the beginning of the free trade period
which is selected as sample period by
those who argue in behalf of free trade.
This is an exceedingly meagre yield, as
will be seen by subsequent develop.
ments. 1t is less than half million
year.
During the succeeding fourteen years,
all OF the fres trade period up to 1860,
the country experienced, as .he free
traders say, wonderful increase in,
wealth. They give free trade the credit.
The statistics give the crsdit to the gold
yield of California and the silver yield
OF nearer treasure grounds The statis-
tics show that during this period there
