TYnhoId Fewer EpIdemIo.

There appears to be an epidemic Of
typhoid fever among the people of Gill
lespie County, Tex. Nearly every fam
lily in the county has suffered more OF
less from it, and Peter Burke, wealthy
farmer living near fredericksburg, the
county seat, recently lost three chill
dren from the malady. The type of tho
disease is unusually aggravated, and
battles tho skill of the best physicians.
Some of the doctors contend that tho
fever is ''la grippe" on it's second round
through that part Of the State, and in
its recurrent form is fatal in the major
ity of cases.

A FALSE

1t does seem most difficult, if not
absolutely impossible, for the average
democrat to reason out a direct con
clusion from any given premise. 1t
seems equally difficult for the statis-
ticians of the democratic persuasion
to realize that side by side with the
changes occurring in this country
there are occurring changes in the old
world, that vitiate all the calculations
made by the economists who only
consider one side of the problem. In
nothing is this more apparent than in
the deductions made from certain
classes of facts, and the conclusions
reached, relating to food supplies.
AS an example, this from the Fort
Worth Mail, is in point:

SAM JONES may not be much of an
exponent of the gospel of Nazarene
but he is generally accepted as speak
ing his own mind, and not lodging
behind the counter to save his head
from consequences. This is n of his
public u%tterances not altogether inap-
propos to the present situation:
"These folks who think they can do
anything with the election bill are
mistaken. A free ballot and a fair
count in the South means negro domi-
nation, and the south won't have it.
1t would take 500, 900 soldiers to en-
force it. A regiment in every county.
A negro is killed once in a while;
killed with lead. Up in Indiana they
kill the white voters with silver. You
buy votes up in the north with
money. In the south one gets killed
once in a while. 1t is cheaper, but
100 are purchased in the north where
one is killed in the south. aud purch-
asing of votes is as dangerous to the
republic as the killing OF voters"

speaks to the faithful as unto little

All
A significant fact revealed by this
is that the farmers products are in
crea sing In a much greater ratio
than home consumers of such pro-
ducts. A conclusion that no sophis-
try can cover up is that the protection
the farmer requires is that which will
enable him to barter with the world.n
The real p%ertinence of this article
lies in the conclusion, in the closing
sentence. Its sophistry consists in
ignoring the changes occurring in the
old world, whereby the farm products
of America are smut out of COMPETE
ton with those of Europe, Asia and
Africa. The significant fact is not
that the farmers products are in
creasing in a much greater ratio
than home consumers of such pro-
ducts, but that the growth of staple
cerials in the old world is far outrun-
ming the old world ratio of population
increase. In other words, the ratio
of increase of production over popula-
ton is far greater III the old world
than in the new, and it is sheer folly
and economic blindness to expect
that with this condition of affairs the
old world markets "a remain open
for new world supplies. In 1850 India,
Egypt ana Atghanistan were not
known as producers of grain in the
great supply marts of the world.
In 1890 these countries are
threatning to crowd Russia to the
wall and usurp her place as the
great wheat exporter of the world.
America must make her own market
for her farmers: or she fails
to secure one. This fact has been
reiterated again and again, and must
be reiterated until it Is accepted. The
hope that is buIlded upon a farmers
market abroad, in Europe, for the
product of American farms, is a fall
lacious one. Europe will not barter
for American food products when
Asia and Africa supply her with
cheaper food supplies than this couu-
try can possibly do. The Dakota and
Minnesota farmer cannot compete
with the India wheat raiser in the
English and French and German
markets. The labor conditions of the
two countries render such competition
impossible. To attempt the impOssi-
be is not the policy of wisdom but of
folly. AS the LIGHT has again and
again pointed out; the true
policy is protection, by in
creasing the home market through
manufacturing increase. Multiply
the number of home who
are now producers of farm products,
by multiplying manufactures, and
increasing the home purchasers and
consumers of our farm products.
Open trade with the South Americas,
securing their tropical products IN
reciprocal exchange for our manufac-
tured goods, and as much practical
relief as can be hoped for will be
afforded. Year by year the worlds
food supply grows in greater ratio
than her population, and the market
for such supply is cOrrespondiugly
curtalled. All economists agree in
regarding the home market as the
only sure a~nd.reliable market. tits to
the building up of this market that
the republican party has committed
itself, and it will succeed beyond
question in doing what it has under
taken if it remains in possession OF
the government.
