THE RIGHT DOCTRINE.
To the Editor of the Eagle.

To the Editor of the Eagle.
Your editorial of recent date on
"Plumb and the Tariff and other impor-
tant matters concerning the interests of
the west, seems to me to be the best for
the time that has appeared in your col
umns. A careful and impartial scrutiny
of the situation for a year or so has in
duced me to throw politics to the winds,
long enough at least to box the compass
and see where we are drifting. | have
taken more than an ordinary interest in
the course of the EAGLE, for by occa-
sionally sounding my own feelings and
views | see | have been following right
along in its wake. The editorial above
referred to is the most far-reaching and
comprehensive as well as bold and out
spoken statement of our needs that |
have vet seen. l am a Republican and
always have been. l have been a protec-
zionist of the strictest sect, and am vet,
provided it is tempered with justice and
fairness to all parties and interests con-
Cerned in the whole country; but when
the eastern people go right ahead, as they
always have, on the assumption that the
western people have no rights which they
are bound TO respect l get tired; so
tired that can not refrain from exer-
cising the God given American right
to kick.
think you hit the biggest monster
when you struck the curse of watered
railroad stock OF all our ills | think
this Is the greatest. don't believe one
man in a thousand realizes the euormity
of the steals through watered stock.
There is one other important idea that
occurred to me when l read
your article referred to. 1t is the
tenacitv with which the rail
roads and the money interests of the
east hold together TO prevent the up
building of manufacturing industries in
the west. They seem 10 be hand in glove
together in this matter in order that they
may levy tribute on Us through the neceS-
sity Of having to freight everything from
the east. We are forced to buy of them
and then, after having to pay their own
price for our necessities the railroads,
which are all manipulated by eastern
men and money. dig the life out of Us
again in order TO get a paying per cent
on four or five times the capital actually
invested.
/ am glad to see the EAGLE take the
bull by the horns, and you may rest as
sured that there are tens of thOus-
ands of Republicans in the west
who viii back the old bird
until she ruhs his avariciouS nose in the
dirt Of humiliation. The independent
spirit that has always been prominent
characteristic of Republicanism is begin
ming TO assert itself on both state and
national questions. and Harrison, Hum
phrey ct al. VIII realize in the near future
what II Is for creatures TO attempt to be
bigger than their creator. Even presi-
dents and governors can learn a little
from the people if they can only be in
duced to listen 10 them The time is
coming when they viii hear something
"drap,h no matter how deaf 10 the APP
peals of the people they may be now.

AMERICAN FOOD PRODUCTS ABROAD

The president, in answer to the house
resolution respecting the importation into
foreign countries of American bread
stuffs and provisions, and the rates of
duty imposed upon such articles, has
transmitted letter from the secretary
of state, accompanied by number of
tabulated statements. The secretary 5
statement Includes Austria Hungary,
Belgium, France, Germany, Turkey,
Italy, Portugal, Spain, Switzerland,
Sweden, Argentine Republic, Brazil,
Canada and Mexico; and from the foot
notes Of these tables it appears, says the
secretary, that the importation of Amer
lean pork and lard, into Austria Hungary
has been prohibited since March 10, 1881,
and the sale of American canned meat pro-
ducts was prohibited in Hungary in 1884
The importation of American pork into
France has been prohibited since Feb
ruary, 1881, and all lard imported from
the United States is subjected to inspec-
ton. The importation of American
pork into Germany has been prohibited
SAllCt oilluoIy q ICCOs oIlu VI Aultl
potatoes since 1875. The importation of
American pork into Italy has been pro-
hibited since February 90, 1879. The
importation of American potatoes into
Spain is prohibited, and American pork
and lard are subject to government in
spection. The importation of American
cattle and swine-except in bond-into
Ontario was prohibited April %, 1880.
The importation of American pork into
the Ottoman Empire has been prohibited
since 1881.
And yet in the face of such conditions
there are those who would demagoeue
the agricultural community of this coun-
try into the belief that a tariff on the ar
ticles named would benefit the laboring
classes in this country. But it is becom-
ing more and more evident every day
that the people are learning something
about the practical operations of the sys-
tenn that has been in vogue long enough
to make every farmer and mechanic a
semi-millionaire by reason of the sys-
TENS impartial benefcence, but has not,
and because it has not they want show
down so as to see who has been bene-
fitted.
