The report continues: More than

pay SIG, 100000 to foreign makers for

$500, 600, which the government did not
wasn't. No less than 279 of 326 farmers
who refer at alI to the duties on sugar,
ask the abolition of these duties. The
producers of tobacco do not ask any in
crease Of duties, but they earnestly de-
sire that the fraudulent importation Of
coolie grown tobacco by which their in
dustry has been rendered improbable
may be stopped by more precise language
in defining the classes to which existing
duties were meant to apply.
The report then gives statistics OF the
wool industry Of the country as affected
by the tariff, and continues: People forced
to give up wool growing must devote
their land to other branches OF agricul-
ture in which competition is already Sc
we're enough. The prostration Of manu-
featuring would also deprive the Ameri-
can farmers OF considerable part OF
their home market, and with the
wooden goods worn by nine
tenths of the people as cheap
now as in any other country, quality con-
sidered, consumers have only to pay
higher prices if the enormous consump-
ton Of the country Is to be supplied
wholly or in part by foreign looms.
They, therefore, ask the united effort of
the farmers to obtain from Cor gress such
action that this industry may receive the
substantial protection enjoyed under the
tariff of 1867.

A gentleman recently said TO areporter
81 will not say it would be useless for
other cities to attempt to establish pack
cries in Texas after Fort Worth has her
Union Stock Yards in operation, but 1
will say that such an attempt would be
attended with serious obstacles. To
carr on packery there must be mar
ket net'r at hand from which the animals
for slaughtering can be picked. Such
a market can not be put
in operation in any other city in Texas,
II Fort Worth wants it, for this city is on
the road to other great markets. No cat
tie LASER ships his cattle to Kansas City
or st. Louis. He ships to Chicago, with
pri 'ilege to stop at either or both Of those
places. Nobody with his eyes open would
ship any large number of cattle to aSouth-
ern Texas market, because when they
reached there they would have to be
sold. The shipper would have
no recourse. II he ships to
Fort Worth and the prices ruling are not
satisfactory he can send them right on to
another market. No Texas city can cut
OFF cattle from Fort Worth, and therefore
none can get the packeries."
The gentleman who said that was one
who knows something Of what ne speaks.
