A snide Hide in the Mckinley Bill.

The Mckinley bill protects wheat to
the amount of twenty-five cents per
bushel This is one OF the tubs thrown
to the agricultural whale. Now there
never was poorer fiction than this
professed duty on wheat. 1t does not
protect the farmer to the amount of a
farthing, and it never can protect him
unless the crop of wheat in the United
States is SO short as to he inadequate
TO feed the people Of the United States.
The surplus in Canada this year will
exceed 33, coo, 600 bushels. The most Of
it will come from the Manitoba coun-
try. 1t will find d market in the United
States. The great millers will be the
purchasers. They viii convert it into
flour and export the flour to Europe.
The moment the millers get their
bill of lading they will present to the
government officials thu evidence that
the -four was manufactured out of
Canadian wheat or wheat they paid a
duty of 25 cents per bushel, and the
United States officials will allow them
the rebate of 25 cents, which they paid
on each bushel. The flour made out
of the Canadian wheat viii go to tho
European market and force that much
United States grown wheat out of the
foreign market There never was a
purer fiction--never a clearer deceit
than this professed protection on wheat
The Canadian farmer may be the loser,
but the American farmer can not be
the gamer, What the Canadian farmer
loses the flour manufacturer will gain.

1t is comparatively easy for human
being born with pretty face, soft voice
and the possession of those many outward
attractions which help to make the fair
sex the object of especial consideration and
alteration, to bamboozle and undo other
human beings. A woman has more op-
portunities to deceive than man has
Every man fairly begs her TO fool him and
cheat him and send him to the dogs.
Moreover, wickedness is more profitable to
the woman who makes 1t her stock in

comes steel. A mans be he ever so wicked,
