Mr.. Mills, in his speech at Tammany
Hall, said eve believe 1t was better that
the lumber kings of Michigan should
not make so much money, and that the
struggling farmers of the prairie, who
live in sod-houses, should be allowed to
get lumber so cheap that they could build
nice comfortable farm houses"
The cost of the lumber for story and y
half house 2S by 40 feet, as computed by a
large lnmber firm in Omaha, is $451, de
livered free at the nearest railroad station.
Suppose the duty of 81 per NJ. taken off,
and that the lumber would be so much
cheaper to the consumer-which, how
ever would not be the case-tben the
STRUGGLING farmer" would still find it
necessary to raise about 800 to buy his
lumber with, while he can put up sod

quotes n remark Of Gen. Ben Butler to the
effect that he was out of politics; that
