| the burden of the public debt has
been doubled; silver demonetized and
high protective tariff established.
He characterized the protective tariff
as curse. The farmers of the United
States to-day did not receive on an
average more than 10 cents bushel
for corn, 80 cents for wheat and to
B cents pound for hogs. Every pre-
tence of home market for the farm
er was fraud and every protence of
taxing wheat and oats and potatoes
for his benefit was a cheat and a sham.
1t is notorious truth that the tariff
as it now stood increased the farmers
expense account from 50 to 100 per
cent on every implement of industry
with which he toiled. Last year bind
ing Irvine was raised to Is cents a
pound, by the trust He did not be-
lieve the hands of the farmer would
hold a Republican ticket at the next
presidential election. Not only had
there been no increase in the value of
the land for the last quarter of a cen
fury, but their had been an absolute
loss of 33 per cent. Improved farm
lands to-day under the most favorable
circumstances would not, on a general
average, realize more than two-thirds
what their value mad been twenty-five
years ago. The Ohio farms are now
under mortgage to the amount of $780,
100000. In Illinois 23 per cent. of
the whole face of the state is under
mortgage, they amounting to $402,-
100000. Forty-seyen per cent of the
state OF Michigan was under mortgage
In Indiana, Kentucky, Missouri, Kan
sas, Nebraska and the whole North
west from 20 to 80 per cent. of the
farms were under mortgage at such
rates of interest as the farmers could
never pay out of their crops, to say
nothing Of the principal. The farmers
were thus brought face to face with
ruin. Nor were farmers of New Eng
land in that respect different from the
Western states.

CATTLEMEN of the West have lost
heavily this winter, but they can
stand losses, il they cannot afford
them. But how about the rich and
the poor farmers in the Mississippi
valley who have lost almost every
thing by disastrous floods. Cattlemen
have their ranches and hay meadows
left to them intact, but the farmers
in the flooded districts lose houses,
fences, horses, cattle, crops and every
thing. Ii we we're to contrast our
