British price of steel rails, if the
Presidents theory is correct. But
the British price is, in fact, $40, in
stead of $3.50.
Further, the steel rail industry in
this country was built up under a
duty of s2S a ton. In 1885 steel
rails were sold here for s27, just
one dollar less than the original
duty.
Take another illustration. The
price of cut nails in Philadelphia is
50 for keg of 100 pounds. The
duty on cut nails is $l.25. If the
above proposition be correct, cut
nails should be bought in Europe
for IS cents a keg. In fact, they
cannot be bought anywhere on
earth for less than $3.50 a keg.
Again, cut nails have been sold
in this country as low as sl.85 keg
of 100 pounds, while the duty was
$3.50 a keg. Thus, according to
the Democratic circular, cut nails
must then have been purchaseable
in Europe for 35 cents a keg.
Three-ply carpets are sold in Eng
land at IS. 3D., or 62t cents per
yard. Add so per cent. stakes" TO
this and the price would be 934
cents per yard. Yet you can buy
better and more artistic carpets at
Dobson's or Sloane's for 624 cents
per yard than you can for the same
money in England.
And so it is with every article of
general consumption which the
masses of the people buy. As for
the cost of the Bible, those who get
up such literature as the above are
not likely to pay that tax. Bibles
are plentiful and cheap. The Press
will not answer these back-number
questions again this campaign, so
those interested will please paste
this in their scrap books and stop
sending the circular to the Press.
We are to busy graphing with live
issues to dip into ancient history
and answer statements which on
their face presuppose the farmers of
the country to be fools.
They are not, but know more
about this question than the Free
Traders who try to instruct them

Are The Farmers Fools?

The Press has been called upon
by no less than six readers to reply
to that foot-in-the-graye old chest
nut about the farmer being taxed
35 per cent. on his flannel shirt, 81
per cent. on his coat, &c. Inoredi-
BILE as il may seen to intelligent
people, the Democratic National
Committee is insulting the intelIi-
gence of the farmers of this state
by circulating this exploded relic of
free-trade argument:
''Under this tariff the farmer
rises in the morning, puts on his
common flannel shirt taxed 80 per
cent; his coat taxed 81 per cent.
shoes 80 per cent, and hat taxed %
per cent; takes the water from a
bucket taxed 35 per cent, and wash
es his face and hands in tin bowl
taxed 35 per cent; dries them on a
cheap cotton towel taxed IS per cent.
Gle sits down to his humble
meal and eats from a plate taxed 80
per cent, with knife and fork tax
ed 50 per cent; drinks his coffee
with sugar taxed6 S per cent; seasons
his food with salt taxed SO per cent;
pepper taxed 81 per cent.
''iIe looks around on his wife
and children, all taxed in the same
way; takes a chew of tobacco taxed
1873 per cent, or lights cigar taxed
lis per cent. And, sir, even the
sunlight under heaven that pours
into his humble dwelling must come
through window glass taxed 50 per
cent, and yet he thinks he lives Ia
the freest government under heaven.
"Then he starts 10 work; puts a
bride taxed IS per cent. on his
horse, takes his horse that has been
shod-the nails used in shoeing be-
ing taxed 50 per cent, driven by 3
hammer taxed 20 per cent.-and
him to a plow taxed 40 per
cent, with chains taxed IS per cent,
and after the days labor is closed and
his family are an gathered around,

The Grasshopper Plague.

There is probably not a reader of
this paper who has not heard of the
grasshopper plague in Minnesota
and how the state pays a certain
amount per bushel for their exter-
mination. A telegram from Fergus
Fall, Mimi, a few days ago said that
the grasshopper war at Perham con
tiuued undated. That although
10000 bushels had been caught they
were still catching them at lively
rate. None to speak of had flown
away. A lot rose up and flew five
or six miles, and when they alighted
forty-five bushels of them were
caught. They are confined to a
small area and every grasshopper
caught means 1000 less next year,
and when it is remembered that l0,-
600 bushels have been caught the
number next year can be easily esti-
mated. Inasmuch as they have not
laid their eggs yet, there is hope of
wiping them entirely out. Last
Monday night over 1000 bushels
were caught in one field. One man
caught 400 bushels Monday. These
are big catches and only made
occasionally
