The Republicans a . Iowa declaro
that they flyor "tho protection Of
Amsrioln industry wnen it does not
foster Trusts or trade conspiracies.r
Ths is a significant proYiso. Last
year tho "real leadsr" OF the Repub-
lican party proclaimed upon tho
stump that "Trusts are largely pr
yate affairs" with which the Federal
Government had no business to in
terfere. Aud he further asserted that
the tariff had nothing to do with tho
formation or SUCCESS OF Trusts. The
Iowa Republicans tuko issue with
Mr.. Blaine and tho high protection
lists on both these points. They di-
rectly inply that the so-called "pro-
te,tiyo" system docs "foster Trusts
and trade co~nspiracics," and declare
that "it is tho duty of the State and
Fsloral Governnsnts to enact and
execute laws to punish thom."
The farmers OF Iowa have abundant
reason to know what they arc talking
about. Whenever they buy a barrel
OF sugar, a roll OF fence wire, a thou
sand feet Of lumber, a can OF white
paint or linseed oil, a hundred foet Of
load pipe, a string OF copper wire, q
bag Of binding Irvine, or any quantity
OF q soore OF other articles necessary
in their vocation, they pay tribute to
q "rrust or trals conspiracy" fostered
by tho tariff.
Whom tho farmers of the country
begin to strike at all duties which
promote Trusts or trade combinations
to control the homo market there will
DO tariff smashins" in earnest. And
that time may not be SO far distant as
the last election led the bounty
sharers to believe. The Iowa proviso
is the most significant political utter
ance OF tho year.-IVirginia Chroni-
