do much for the country. Said he:
"The Mckinley tariff bill is clear cut,

through the process of give and take.

To sum up, the protective colony is

Why is it that the democrats do not
attend republican meetings? At every
democratic meeting large part of the
audience has been composed of repubi-
cans while at the republican meetings
hardly democrat will show his face.
Are they afraid to hear political ques-
lions discussed from a republican stand
point for fear they will be converted ?
The average republican desires to cast
his vote by the light of intelligence. Are
the den ocrats con mt to be guided by

THE TARIFF IN AUSTRALIA.

Opposite fiscal policies, says an English
journal, have long been pursued in the
two chief Australian colonies of Victoria
and New South Wales, which are inhab!-
ted by the same race and whose territory
is contiguous. The former has adhered
steadily during the last twelve years to
a rigorous protective policy, while the
latter has adopted for very much
longer period the policy of free trade.
Protection and free trade have now
been tested side by side as an economic

Said Gov. Merriam to us while In con-
versation with him in St. Paul two
weeks since: "Stevens, what is the mat
ter with the farmers? l have done every
thing possible for them that could con-
sistent with my duty, but the more do
for them the more they KICK me-" True
as gospel. There is not all alliance man
in the state that would have treated the
farmers with more consideration than
has Gov. Merriam, yet they are not sat
isfed, but insist on misrepresenting him
and resorting to the most nnfair means
to compass his defeat, even aiding in the
election of one of the most pronounced
railroad attorneys in the land-Thomas
Wilson; for it is perfectly evident that a
vote for Owen is virtually a vote for
Wilson. Say what"they may, yet the
fact is clear as MONDAY sun that the

lnto tne United States, paying tariff OF
ten cents per bushel-say about one
million dollas-lnto the government
treasury. If tariff makes no difference
in the quantity or price of what they
can sell to brewers III the United States,
why so much agitation among our Cam
adam neighbors because of the increase
of the tariff on barley made by the Nc
Kinley bill? They know full well that
under this additional protection our
farmers will find encouragement for SOW
ing barley on some of the land now de-
voted to wheat, and to this extent the
demand for foreign barley will be dimin-
ished unless the price is put down below
what they have been receiving.
When farmers look at the quotations
for spring wheat in the respective mark
cts of Winnipeg and Minneapolis, and
see that in the absence of the existing
tariff Of twenty cents per bushel the
wheat yield of our Northwestern states
would be diminished in value by the in
fluence of increased supply, it is likely to
require something more than the hollow
promise from free trade propogandists
that importers will thereafter sell goods
cheaper than they can now be bought to
induce the agricultural voters of this
section to join the procession of Golden
club followers. These farmers know the
non-agricultural workmen in the United
States pays five dollars for American
breadstufs where the British workman
pays one dollar for the same products.
They likewise appreciate the fact that
every American workman earning wages
at some employment other than farming
is this sort Of customer, whereas, if
crowded out of present employment by
unqualified foreign competition he is
likely to become competitog in grow
ing American wheat for sale on an al
reody fully supplied marked.-[St. Cloud

the democratic?" While the regular
nominee of the alliance for representa-
