FREE-TRADE attorneys, Brit
ish and American, presistently
seek the support of farmers by
holding out the promise of en-
larged foreign markets for the
products of the farm as the re-
suit of ENGRAVING the Cobden
policy into our National legisla-
ton.
The hollowness of such promise
becomes apparent when it is
remembered that not only is the
quantity of farm products which
foreigners will consume limited,
but that the privilege of supply
ing this is contested by other
farmers who are in a position TO
crowd prices below the cost OF
production in this country. Take
the case OF wheat, which is the
chief article OF export from grain
raising farms. Last year the
wheat shipped abroad as grain
and flour amounted to about 80.
600, 900 bushels. OF this nearly
four-fifths went to Western Flu
rope-over 50, 269, 5Sl bushels of
il to Great Britain, which was
less than the average sold there
for the past eighteen years.
Such falling off in the quantity
sold to our British customers is
not the result OF our inability to
supply their needs, but Of the
fact that wheat raisers from
other countries We're on hand as
competitors ready to sell for a
less price than American wheat
raisers could afford to take for
their grain.
While the quantity of Ameri-
can wheat sold To Great Britain
fell off from over ninety million
bushels in 1887, TO fifty-iive and n
quarter million bushels in 1889,
the quantity supplied by Russia
Increased nearly fourfold in the
same time-that is TO say, from
10. 1854, COZ bushels in 1887, to 80,
s00,372 bushels in 1889. Not
because the United States had

not the wheat TO sell, but because
wheat could be bought cheaper
from Russia than America. Con
sumers were too hard pressed by
poverty TO give heed TO theories
of reciprocity in commerce. They
bought their bread of those who
sold cheapest, and us the Russian
serf works for less money than
has to be paid the American farm
laborer, not only have prices
been hammered down, but Rus
sian wheat supplemented by
more than sixteen million bushels
from India in 1889 has been
crowding the American product
from the markets of Western
Europe.
This is the unequal contest to
which free-trade attorneys urge
the American farmer. In pur-
suit Of the fanthom of a foreign
market in which he can sell only
at loss. they ask him to cripple
the resources OF that home mar
ket which now consumes nine
tenths of all farm products, and
which will. if adequately protect
ed against underpaid foreign
labor, in the near future supply
American consumers for all that
the American farmer has TO sell.
