love story, pure and simple, or it might have
been story woven about the central motive

three. Asa plot the detective story offers no
new features. It Is neither more nor less inn
probable than the average tale of crime. Cir
cumstantial evidence fastens crime on one

HOW THE MKINLEY BILL BENEFITS THE
WORKING MAN.

WORKING MAN.
Please give me the use of the columns
of your valued paper for the purpose Of
replying to the appended article, and
bringing the attention of our people to a
subject which will be greatly abused by
the old party press in their effort to roll
from their crushed and rented ranks the
weight which the Mckinley monster has
saddled upon them.
The people, both the sellers and buyers,
have their attention called to the workings
of the Mckinley bill. Eggs come in fbr q
share of attention with other things, and in
order to learn just the effect the bill has on
them, News representative called on
(. Thomas Parker yesterday and put the ques-
tion.
Mr.. Parker has had fifteen years expert
ence in buying eggs in Canada for the east
ern markets, and understands the exact
situation.
Before the passage of the Mckinley bill
Canada supplied New York and most Of the
eastern markets with eggs. Two million
dollars worth, or 100000 dozens Of eggs
were annually shipped across the line from
Canada to the United States. Now the Mo
Kinley bill placing cents duty on eggs has
reduced the price in Canada cents ON the
dozen, and the Canadians have stopped
sending eggs to the United States, but in
stead have opened market in Liverpool
where all the surplus eggs are shipped.
"This," said Mr.. Parker, 'leaves
a scarcity in the egg markets of the
east which must be supplied from the
west, and in creating large and steady de-
mand for them the natural consequence is
rise in price. We.ship eggs TO the east
from territory embracing over 100 miles
in extent, and this great demand Of from
Ito A cents dozen."
Yes, it has the same effect on the local
market. The home people have to pay the
same price that articles would command in
distant markets. Eggs are cents higher
dozen here than they were before there
were so many shipped away, and there will
continue to be steady market for them.
Before entering into direct reply, I
beg to correct the Netcs In its data on
the imports and value of the article In
question. Here is the correct data:
United States annual product, 1,2OO,-
100000 dozen. Exports, 100000 dozen.
Imports, 100000. Value, about
$2,160,0OO. It will be noticed now that
our imports amount to about N per
cent. of our consumption. What effect
would duty have upon eggs at this
ratio? The imports are too insignificant
compared with the grand total to make
any difference In the price, even il they
we're altogether prohibited.
To 60 farther, TO show how little ef-
feet the import of eggs has in depressing
the price of American eggs, is demon
strated by data which, from lack Of
The advocate., 1891-06-17

space, / cannot here publish, but which
/ am ready to furnish, that will go to
show that the largest imports are almost
invariably in November, and thus come
upon the market in December and JAM
uary, and that is just in the two months
when the price Of eggs is highest.
On the other hand our imports are the
least. in the months Of March, April and
February, which come in our market in
April, May and June, when the price of
eggs are always the lowest. The conclu-
slons to be drawn therefrom are: Either
some other agency, and not imports,
affects the price Of eggs, or else these very
large imports make high prices. My
high tariff friend can take his pick.
The thousands of farmers who will
read this will be the best judges as to
how much more they receive for eggs
now as compared with the price re-
celved last year this time. My own
Investigations have failed to furnish any
thing like tangible proof to show that
such is the case. Still l may not have
been diligent enough In my inquiries. l
may not haye directed them to the right
source, or in some way or other may
have failed to receive minute and correct
information, and therefore in justice to
all and for the sake Of opening the argu-
ment let us take it for granted that the
case as the NesOs puts it is correct. If so,
If our farmers who bring eggs here to
Hutchinson get from Q to cents more
per dozen on the strength Of this prOtec-
ton, then how is 1t that the farmers who
sell eggs in smaller towns receive from
2 to 3 cents per dozen less for the same
number and quality9 This Is an authen-
tic fact proven by daily practice. Does
this protection not reach as far as these
little towns, or does It really cost from 60
to 80 cents more per case to ship eggs,
say from Partridge (abOut twelve miles
from here), to the market, than from
hereP Or Is the protection only for large
cities, manufacturing centersH Come
now, Lady NeaOs, do begin to learn the
practice of consistency. You know well
enough that the only reason, il any, that
can be given for the presumably high
price of eggs now is that a few individuals
Of spirited and speculative inclinations
have gone into the exclusive egg
handling business, and the rivalry be-
tween these and our local grocers may
have caused this enhanced value Of the
article nothing more. And right here
Is case which 80 clearly shows by prac-
tical experience the oft-told and so much
contested theory that it Is the competi
tive rather than the protective business
policy which tends towards the enhance
ment Of values. But to proceed. These
apostles Of McKinleyism delight in show
The advocate., 1891-06-17

ing up how the price and consequently
the cost of eatables, farm products, has
been enhanced by the protective policy.
Now let US see how it strikes the other
fellow. Let us see how smoothly 1t rolls
along aside of the muchly praised and
fundamental principles Of Republican
protective ideas which have pledged
themselves to protective (destructive)
tariff for the special benefit and to the
direct interest of American industries
and laborers. Their pet theme was that
the higher we make the duties on Inn
ports of articles which compete with our
home products, so much higher will the
wages OF this same muchly protected Ia
borer be. These scions OF political (sui-
cidal) economy, so well schoOled in the
art of moldlng their protective sugar
plums for the palate o. their pct, the
under-s-glass-case protected American
laborer, go farther in their benevolence
and say: "Stop not In the good work,
but proceed further than just taking
care of the manufacturer and wage
workers. Let the blessings of our pro-
teCtive (abusive) legislation 60 to the
great wealth producer, he that tilleth the

increased duties on all agricultural prod
ucts are intended ~ to raise the
value thereof, the law Of supply and
demand and the Vaccinations OF trusts
and combines are not considered, and
thus the law is to work its benefits to the
farmer. The increase In the price OF
cereals necessarily will cause an advance
in the cost of the same TO the consumer,

ulators of wise (vile) legislation come In

and millions Of whom are artisans and
laborers, will be fully able TO meet the
natural (?) advance in the cost Of living
from out Of the large (?) advsnce In their
wages, conceded them by the owners Of
the highly protected American Indus
tries.
Let US now proceed TO see how we'll
that portion Of the consumers, which con-
stitutes the greatly protected American
wage worker, can afford TO pay not alone
this one particular advance on eggs, but
any kind of an advance In the cost Of ne
cessIties wherewith 10 sustain life. Let
the exalted protectionist point out to me
one single instance where the wage
workers Of any one Of our highly pro-
tected industries received an advance in
their pay which came to them voluntarily

American wage-worker received no ad-

hand his lot proves identical with that Of

warmed back to life on his bosom the

his Samaritan deed with a stroke from
Its deadly fangs Sweet indeed was the
music Of the great Republican protection
