THE TARIFF.

EDITOR ADvANCE-Some papers
have 80 much to say about the tariff
question. now we as a farmer will give
our opinion about high tariff:
Suppose the farmers of this State and
the whole Union should organize and
demand tariff on grain. Well we will
say on wheat, which would prevent it's
importation. When this is secured
they organize q Trust,s and refuse to
sell q bushel of wheat for less than
$3.50. The tariff must be so adjusted
that foreign wheat could not be i'm
ported for less than the above figure.
Suppose the farmers should insist that
this proceeding was solely in the in
terest of the farm labOrer to whom he
wishes to pay good wages. Would
there not be cry from tho same papers
raised that the farmers we're illegiti-
mately making wealth by making cost
" the necessaries of life? And still
this is precisely what the manufactu.
rers are doing, and any criticism upon
this extorti0n is denounced as blow
aimed at our infant industries.

House Billie 1920 and 1924, making
newspapers containing lottery adver-

Postmaster General the power to de-

of the law have been violated. The
committee declare that these bills vio-
late the spirit of that article OF the
Constitution which declares that Con-
