Protection for Farmers.

are upwards of $4,000, 600 persons di-

RUNNING AN INDUSTRY.
The Effect of the Mills Bill on the Woo
Interests of the Country.

The Effect of the Mills Bill on the Wool
Interests of the Country.
The effect of the passage of the Mills
bill even through one House of Con-
gress is felt at once Its blasting in
huence upon one branch of business is
shown suddenly and disastrously. The
big wool house of Hall Brothers in this
city failed few days ago. II was not
in good condition and the outlook was
not such as to justify further effort.
An assignment was made.
In a court of justice, the force Of the
blow at an American industry was
made apparent. Part of the wool of
Hall Brothers is stored, and rival
creditors present claims. There is in
a warehouse a stock of this wool val
ued at 100000 The various claim
ants desire to inspect this stock, but it
is not wise to allow them time. Why?
Simply because, as the representative
of the assignee stated as matter OF
business to the court, the Mills bill
having passed the House wool is de-
clining in value, and the commodity
should be sold Immediately If creditors
are to get what is due them.
Here was no political buncombe
Here was business fact given from
business necessity Already the Mills
bill has crippled the wool industry of
the United States There is not a
dealer with wool in his possession,
there is not a farmer from the At
lantic to the Pacific who owns a single
sheep, who is not poorer man than
he was before the bill reached its pres
ent stage. Were it a certainty that
the measure would pass the Senate he
would be poorer still.
The farmers of the country are sacri-
feed by the Democratic party for the
benefit of the wool-growers of England
and Australia. That is the situation
in a sentence. There is no chance for
bubble or evasion in the matter. The
cheaply-grown wool of other countries
is allowed to come in and ruin the
market for wool of home production.
1t is something a school-boy may COM
prehend.
The destruction of the wool industry
is but one incident in the destruction
Of industries which would follow the
adoption OF the Democratic pro-
gramme. 1t is but an illustration
made particularly forcible by the fact
that we have already before our eyes
striking proof OF the evil that may be
wrought by the free-trade scheme -

Some Pacific Coast Opinions Relating to

San Francisco Bulletin: The record

anti-Chinese citizen of California.
San Francisco Call Qnd.): If the

ported had been enacted it would have
kept thousands of Chinese out who will
come in under the new treaty.
San Francisco Post: The voters will

in strongly favorable contrast with his
opponent, who but a few short weeks
ago was anxiously inquiring of Cali
fornians il it was not possible to Chris
tianize the Chinese and bring them into
harmony with our system of civiliza.
tion-thus displaying a surprising de.
gree of ignorance upon the subject.
San Francisco Call Qnd.): The at.
tempt to create prejudice against
Harrison on this coast on the Chinese
question will not cost him a vote.
Harrison stood in 1873 where Eastern
men generally stood. He did not com
prehend the magnitude of the question
nor the urgent need of legislation. The
Burlingame treaty was then in force
which provided for the immigration o.
Chinese. On this coast we regarded
the need of legislation as so urgen
that we asked Congress to prohibit
Chinese immigration without regard Il

many others, thought it better to wal

placed himself on record as an Op

Oakland Times: Mr.. Harrison never

should be accomplished under and no

did, therefore, oppose Senate bill
which aimed at the exclusion of the
Chinese, not because it so aimed, bu
because as sound constitutions
lawyer he opposed such a violation o
the high respect due to treaties, anC
an abrogation of treaty obligations
which, were they with nation o
equal power, would amount to a dec

Harrison did at that time just what
the Democratic House did at the lasi

MILLS FREE-TRADE BILL.

The Entering Wedge Driven in at the
Foot of the Grand Protection Oak.
The Democratic party has officially
registered its adoption of the Presi-
dents free-trade policy. The Mills bill
has passed the House with a margin OF
thirteen votes. The character of this
measure is determined by its essential
feature-the free wool clause. BY that
sign il is known of all men as free
trade measure. Even if this charac-
teristic feature were lacking, the files
of the Congressional Record bear wit
ness on every Democratic page to the
purposes of the party leaders who have
forced this measure through the House.
Every Southern member of the major
ity party in the House who has spoken
i'm the tariff debates has declared his
hostility to protection and his SYM
pathy with free trade. The Northern
Democrats have followed the Southern
leaders with servility, the majority OF
them being as extreme in their TRADES
against protection as the brigadies
who made free-trade constitution for
the Southern Confederacy. Only four
voices on that side have been raised
against the bill during the prolonged
debate. A measure advocated as this
has been can not mean any thing but
free trade. II is the entering wedge
driven in by the Presidents command
at the foot of the noble protection oak
whose branches Overspread the land
Let the President and his party tri-
umph in November and the tree will
be felled and the ground cleared for
free trade.
Ak' Mills, in closing tine debate, an
grily disclaimed the es sential character
OF his work ''If that is free trade,
will some one tell me what is protec-
tion?" was the formula which he used
in his review of the bill. schedule by
schedule. He even sought by clumsy
evasions and palpable misrepresenta-
lions to convey the impression 10 the
country that his handiwork was a gem
uine protection measure, inspired by
honest regard for the industrial sys-
tenn of the country. So it came to
pass that the party which has declared
open warfare upon protection IN
most aggressive campaign against the
tariff found itself on the last day OF
the debate compelled to act upon the
defensive and to beat the air and falsi-
fy the issue. The country should not
be deceived by these dishonest tactics.
If the Republican party do their work
thoroughly in educating voters during
the next three months the issues in
volved in Democratic tariff legislation
will be understood far and wide and
acted upon by an undivided North,
united once more in order TO save Amer
lean industrial institutions. = NJ y.

INFLUENTIAL CONVERTS.

Ex-COngressman Warner, of Ohio, and
Others Go Back on Cleveland.
Since the Cleveland message of last
winter, the introduction of the Mills
bill, and the Democratic platform of
st. Louis was adopted, there has been
great deal of talk among the people
Of this district, ana especially among
the Democratic party, as to what the
outcome of free trade would be in this
country. This is large wool-grow-
ing county, and the sheep-raisers are
numerous. Nearly every wool-grower
who is a Democrat has Topped to Har-
risOn and Morton and the strong pro-
lection platform, and openly declare
that they can not and will not support
Cleveland and free trade.
Among the politicians of the State,
no man has been held in higher esteem
than ex-Congressman Warner, of this
district. He has, however, always de.
clared for protection. and it has long
been known that he was a Cleveland
man. The morning of the day Har-
rison was nominated, and even before
it seemed here that he would be
nominated, General Warner said in
the presence of number:
." II General Harrison be nominated

The Republican platform is the

The wants of the country. No man
who has the interest of the country at
heart can vote for free trade.
