"R. r." further states that the decline in
wool growing began during the continuance
Of the high tariff Of s67, aud in support of
the statement quotes figures from "A single

one is based upon too narrow grounds. II
Iowa had over two million dollars worth
Of sheep in 1867 and only u quarter of u
million dollars worth in 1853, il by no
means proves that the sheep industry in
the United States declined between those
dates, and statistics show that exactly the
opposite was true though the center of the

that, owing tn the increased price III land
and growing market for other agricultural
products, mainly owing To protection. Iowa

Der Of sheep has decreased Il, OOo. 900. Iowa

TINE TARIFF QUESTION.

In last Weeks AsGas.

EDIroRs ARGUS: In your last issue 'R. R..
takes stand against the tariff on wool,
and seems To challenge protectiOnists to a
reply. Even though we admit to be TACT
every statement he makes, it amounts to
almost nothing on the general tariff issue,
for no two or three industries can he
singled out and fair argument on the
general issue made with reference to those
indust rics solely. SO the issue cannot be
Joined and the fight made between the cat
tlernen on the one side and the sheepmen on
the other. The tariff question, like every
great question, is too broad and too com
pick to he narrowed down within any such
bounds IN your correspondent has tried to
establish, and every argument based upon
such narrow premises must, from the very
nature of the question. be superficial and
misleading in it's conclusions. The great
social and industrial questions which a civ
ilised state Of society gives rise to practi-
cally places the great law Of inter-de-
pendence far above that Of independence.
Every political economist teaches and
every man who has given the matter
thought knows that no iniustry, however
strong, in wholly independent Of any Other 8,
however weak and insignificant the other
may appear; and that whatever affects one
industry, directly or indirectly, affects
every other industry in u greater or lees
degree. To say, then. that the catt'eman's
produce ia not protected while he has to
pay his proportion Of the tax on wool, and
therefore the cattlcman il injured, IL to b. 8
the question, and is in fact no argument
whatever. Let US see II this 10 not true.
We hold that IL there were no tariff ON the
cattleman's produce, he 10, nevertheless,
directly benefited by the protective tariff,
and the same statement may he made wit b
reference to every agricultural product.
The cattleman looks for and finds mar
ket for his produce in the large cities Of the
east, the great "hives Of industry" In
other words, he finds his market with thos
who are directly or indirectly engaged in
the protected industries. 1t cannot lie
successfully denied, and it is hardly at.
tempted, even by free traders, that IN pst, IL
not all, Of these industries have been called
into existence or very largely built up by
the protective tariff Of the United States.
Certain it il, and "R. r." admits it, that
