A DETROIT paper urges the legisla-
college with statute against the sys-
tenn of political economy taught in
that institution. The protectionist
press of this state has just succeeded
in doing for the state precisely what
the legislature of Michigan is asked to
do; that is, it has cOerced the regents
of the state university into taking the
teaching of political economy from
Prof. Garfield, and putting it in the
hands of p protectionist. The so
called reform is based on the idea that
the complexion of the political major
ity in state should determine the
character of the political economy
taught in the state. If the majority
be republican, kick out, say republican
papers, the free trade hereto whose
teaching of the science of political
economy is at variance with the polit-
ical opinions of a majority of the peo-
pie. OF course states with democratic
majorities should Danish any one-ifI
there were such-who should venture
to teach the doctrine of protection.
That is the logic of the theory. In
practice it does not work. Next year
we shall see Prof. Sumner teaching
free trade in the manufacturing and
state of Massachusetts, as
he has taught it there fer years, while
in agricultural Kansas, the university

rate of thirty pounds of corn for one

sugar, which is an agricultural product
and calls for no more labor to produce
it in the cane than corn, is yet thirty
times as valuable in the market. The
excess of market value in sugar above
that of corn represents the manufac-
