r,,o Forr,er and tbe Bome Market.

The Farmer and the Home Market.
The pratectioni,ts are continually talking
about the home market They would have
the people believe that it is sufficient to alb
sorb al the productions Of the country.
When manufacturing in this country was
in its infancy the farmers were told that If
the manufacturers were given all the pro
lection they wanted, the result would be
home market which would take all their
productions at good prices This argu-
ment Is still being used, and viii continue
10 he used. although, as a matter OF fact,
the home market plays no part whatever in
fixing the prices of the staple agricultural
productions. The prices of cotton, corn,
wheat, bacon, lard and other articles are
fixed in foreign markets, to which the sur
plus Of these productions are exported. 1t
is doubtful if the percentage Of the agricult-
ural productions which is taken by the
home market is as great as it was half a
century ago, and there is no prospect that
the demand of the home market will ever
be equal to the supply.
In the meantime, however, the moEopo-
lies and trusts which are made possible by
the high protective tariff fix the prices
which the farmers pay for their farming
implements and machinery, and their
clothes, blankets and other necessaries of
life The farmers have to take what they
can get for what they produce, and pay the
prices which the mouopoles and trusts fix
for what they need. The home market is a
delusion so far as they are concerned 1t is

being on the side of those who are the bene-
ficiaries of the protective system.
Representative Cox, in the bill providing
for the taking Of the next census, has ar
ranged for finding out the amount Of the
mortgages on the farms Of the country. 1t
is safe to say that the information relative
to farm mortgages will be surprising, if not
startling. There is reason for believing
that t6 farmers are getting more deeply
into debt every year.
Arc the protected monopolics and trusts
getting poorer OF course not. One of the
benehciaries Of the protected system has
just made a tour through England and
Scotland in a coach with Mr.. Blaine Ho
came to this country a penniless youth, and
now he is reported to be worth $1,000 900.
OF course his ability enabled HIM to turn
the conditions which he found existing here
to good account, but who can say that
his great fortune is not due, mainly, to the
protective system. He is but one of thou
sands who have got the full benefit of the
home Market about which the protection
lists talk 50 much, and the farmer, with his
mortgaged farm, is one Of hundreds of
thousands to whom the home market is a
delusion.

an imperfect English accent and some titled
tory acquaintance, and practices with the
former in assuring the latter that represent
alive Americans-'our aristocracy, don't

than you are over here This sort of Ameri-

more numerous, and have thought fire.

There was "A very exciting time at the Per
sian court lately. The shah had the tooth
ache and howled with pain. He finally de-
cided to have the tooth out, and called in a
Swedish dentist to extract it. The whole
court was intensely excited, because it was
feared that somebody's head would be cut
off if the operation was not successful. The
great functionaries were on hand and, in
order to protect themselves in the event Of
the shahs displeasure from any cause, they
laid heavy purses at his feet. The opera
ton resulted all right, and then the great
functionarcs were sorry that they had been
so free with their gold. The shah gave one

Mr.. Randall's Illness.

There is no doubt that Mr. Randall is a
very sick man. Tie country, however,
cannot yet realize that there isl probability
that his career is near its close He has
always appeared to be such a strong and
healthy man that it is difficult to realize
that his voice may never be heard again in
the house, where he has been conspicuous
figure for so many years.
He is not an old man. Indeed, he is only
little past his prime. He was born in
Philadelphia not quite sixty years ago, aud
has served continuously in Congress for
about twenty-six years. In nearly all of
that time he has been recognized as one of
the democratic leaders of the house.
There are few better known men in the
country. His strong character and his
marked ability placed him in the front
rank Of statesmen early in his career, and
he has had no difficulty in maintaining that
position. He was speaker for two terms
and half, and he discharged the difficult
duties of that high Office with such fairness
and good judgment as to entitle him to
rank with tho greatest men who have held
that place
Mr.. Randall has many strong friends in
both the great POLITICAL parties, and a good
many enemies The fact that he has enemies,
however, is not against him. No man of
strong character Is without enemies. Some
of those who have assailed him within the
last few years with the greatest bitterness
are members of his own party. They diff
fered with him on the tariff issue. They
felt that he ought not to obstruct the tariff
policy of his party. If it had not been for
his opposition the democrats OF the house
would have been able to pass tariff reform
bill long ago. There is nothing in Mr..
RandalPs course, however, to justify the
conclusion that he was not honest in his
opposition, but it is a question whether he
ought not to have ceased to actively oppose
his party when he found that the great
majority Of it was against him.
But even if his present illness does not
prove fatal, 1t will be quite a long time be.
fore he win be able to resume his con
gressional duties. He certainly has the best
wishes Of the country for his speedy recov-
cry. In his present Frustrated and very
critical condition his course in obstructing
his party's tariff policy is overlooked, ana
only the assistance he has rendered his
party in achieving its victories is remem-

The summer session of the convention OF
the Georgia state agricultural society will
be held at Newman on Aug. A. The pro-

tendance ought to be, and doubtless will be,
large. Addresses will be delivered by
some of the leading men of the state, on
subjects that cannot fail to be interesting
and profitable to farmers The conventions
of the agricultural society are productive
of great deal of good, and they should be
encouraged in every possible way.

Rev. Sam Jones is always sensational.
1t almost seems as if he would rather be
considered smart than good At Chautau-
qua N. Y, the other day, he talked to 5000
people. Among other things, he said: "If
l had a prayer for the United States |
should pray: oh, Lord, give us every four
years a President who is brave, a man who
has backbone like circus pole We have
got to begin at the top and work down to
reform. Most any preacher can jump on a
few old rummIes, but when he jumps on a
president or governor or mayor he will need
grit or he has got to git. A man or a
chicken without sand in his gizzard is a
failure. God Almighty wants a preacher
to be 30 per cent. man and per cent.

but solid south by shaking bloody shirt
at them. But if you get an issue you will

says good many things wlich sound as if
they meant something, but they won't bear
Analysing. When they are studied it is
found they mean nothing. However, the
Rev. Jones now and then makes a remark
that helps to keep up his reputation for
smartnesS.
