THE EDNUNDs LAW.
Testing It's Application in This DI
trict.

The two cases Of thl United States against
DIR. Millard II. Crawford for violation of the
Edmunds law came up before the court in
general term yesterday on certlorsri from the
police court. District Attorney Hoge appeared
for the government and MeSsrs, Hunt0n ts
Chandler, G. NJ. Smith, and g. Thompson for
the defendant. This is considered as q { AL
case OF that law and It's applicability TO the
District. The defense claim that IL does not
opplyto the District, because Il is limited 20
the territories and by implication the District
Is excluded: that 1t deals with subjects having
their seat elsewhere, and that, as a writ, It Is
inapplicable to the District, and the treatment
and punishment of bigamy Is different in the
District from what IL Is In this law.

~ hN0A -NtAs 4CCC.
Mr.. EDITOR: Democrats, in order
that they may induce us farmers to
vote their ticket, persistently tell us
that. while anything we purchase is
protected, we are obliged to sell our
products in the open markets of the
world; that the price of wheat is fixed
in Liverpool, etc, etc. They talk as
if the price of wheat was arbitrarily
fixed in Liverpool by some tribunal
utterly regardless of the amount of
importation, or what the consumption
amounts to.
1t might be well to pause and in
quire of our democratic friends, what
influences determine the price in Liv-
pool. / wonder whether the wheat
exports of the U. 5. do not largely
determine Liverpool prices! My opin-
ion is that diminishing our exports
will tend to u Grease the price of wheat
in Liverpool, and that is the very thing
increased manufacturing here will
accomplish.
The democratic argument is, that.
because the price of wheat is fixed in
England. we should export still more
wheat 10 England; for, if not con-
sumed here, it must necessarily be
exported.
England has 100000 people; the
United States 6O,OO0,O00. or nearly
double the population of England.
But in spite of all this they advise US
to relinquish all the advantages of our
large home market, in order that we
may be enabled to furnish half the
number of poverty stricken, lily paid
Englishmen with the necessaries of
life. As if it would raise the price of
wheat in Liverpool to throw some ten
to fifteen million people now depend
ent upon manufacturing and mining
in this country out of employment, or
convert them to farmers and thereby
double our expOrtation.-which is evil
IDENTIFY what free trade will lead to.
1t is queer argument, indeed, this,
that we should export still more wheat
to an already overlooking market.
The less we export the better will be
the price, in my humble opinion, for
my experience teaches me that the
price of an article increases when it
is difficult to obtain, and falls when it
is plentiful. This undoubtedly holds
true as to grain, as well as to other
products.
1t cannot be to the farmers interest
to close factories, thereby driving
millions of people into his own occupa-
ton, thus making of them farmers
and competitors, while formerly they
were consumers of his farm products.
No, fellow farmers, we must not
permit ourselves to be misled by
democratic promises, but rather give
manufacturing all the encouragement
we can. We cannot afford to support
all the tramps, which closing the fac.
tories will drive upon our highways;
and competition in our own business
is all-suf1icient now. A. b. G.
