IT is said that the hostility toward
Americans in Chile is melted by Great
Britain. Perhaps so but we need not look
back very far in our diplomatic records to
find food for the belief that it was melted
by the blunders of our own Government.

ANOTHER millionaire university was
opened last week-that of Leland Stanford's
at Palo Alto, California. Reports say that
the institution opens with an immense at

fortune. like most of the other California
piles, was made out of the people, it is
commendabe thing that some of it is COM

1t thus appears that on the round of
agricultural products, there is no such
decline in prices as to justify the extreme
depreciation in farming lands alleged to
exist Of course there are especial condi-
tions which vary the comparison some
what both for and against the present
situation. Corn is artifcially high at
present and wheat is advanced by the
European scarcity. But wheat in 1881
was also above the average price A large
share of the difference in butter and pota-
toes is due to the difference in the seasons.
Hog products and wool are 16 to 25 per
cent lower than in 1881, while cattle are
slightly higher. On the whole the average
prices of agricultural staples do not show
a reduction of more than or 10 per cent
from 1881.
But when we balance that with the
purchasing power of these products it is
seen that the loss is pretty well offset.
Sugar is One-half of IFS cost in 1881.
Coffee is somewhat higher and salt un-
changed. Clothing is little cheaper, and
agricultural implements no dearer, except
where the price has been artifcially ele-
vated by combinations Iron and steel
are lower. If we compare the whole
round of what the farmer has to buy with
what he has to sell, the alarmist state
ment of our correspondent will be found
to have very slight foundation in fact.
That there are conditions in our trans
bortation and commercial system which
put unfair burdens on farming, as on
other productive industries, THE Dis
PATCH has steadily maintained But the
figures quoted leave very little force to
our correspondents method of sustaining
Governor Campbell's free trade argument
We still claim the liberty of doubling if
the farmers, either of Mahoning county,
Ohio, or of Beaver county, Pennsylvania,
are willing, as rule, to sell their land at
ten, twenty or even twenty-five dollars
per acre. But if the tariff should be
abolished, there would be no doubt that
they would have to sell at those prices.

FARM LANDS AND PRODUCTS.

A correspondent in our Mail Pouch
column challenges THE DIsPATCH's criti-
cisms of Governor Campbell's arguments
on the depreciation of farming lands in
Ohio, by citing some cases of land sold or
offered for sale at surprisingly low figures.
We will admit that if farmers generally in
Ohio and Pennsylvania are ready to sell
their land at such figures it shows re-
markable cheapness of that class of prop
erty. But we may still hold 1t to be an
open question whether the substantial
farmers of either State are ready to sell
their farms at reduction of 80 1-3 per
cent from the prices they would have
brought in 1880.
THE DISPATCH has heretofore recOg
nized the fact that there is adepreciation in
agricultural property, and has pointed out
its causes That it is not due to
protection is evident from the fact
that it is most marked in the vicin-
ity of the manufacturing sections.
What it is due to, is plain enough from a
feature of our commercial system which
has often been discussed in these columns.
When the policy of the railroads in the
matter of freight charges is to bring the
fertile lands of Illinois or Iowa as near to
the Eastern markets as those of Ohio or
Pennsylvania, the lands of the latter States
must become as cheap as those of the
others, and if their productive capacity is
less, must be cheaper in proportion. The
equality will vary as the factors of fertility
and freight charges are changed. For in
stance, if farm in Iowa has to bear
freight rate of 80 cents to get its product
shipped to a certain point, and farm in
Pennsylvania with one-third less fertility
has to bear rate of 20 cents, it is plain
that the value of the farms is equal
To return to the question of the extent
of this depreciation, our correspondent
raises point, whichis worth investigating.
He very correctly refers the value of farm
lands to the prices paid for products, and
says: Farm products have been so
persistently hugging the low-water or
cost mark for the past decade
that the fall in the value of farm land was
simply inevitable. This makes it peril
nent TO compare the values of farm pro-
ducts at present with those of decade
ago, and to see how far that decline has
gone. We have not accessible quotations
on farm products in October 1880, but
have taken as the nearest date to that the
quotations for January 1881, when pro-
ducts were likely to be a little higher,
especially on butter and potatoes. The
exact figures are interesting.

"THE venonfous hatred displayed by

towards our minister to Chill, Mr..
Egan," says the Toledo Blade, "is
simply because he is an Irisbman and
a Republican. There is every reason
why Irish. Americans should vote with
the Republican party, but none at all
why they should vote with the Demo
Gratis. British free trade ruined Ire
land, and is to day one of the leading
causes of the distress of her people
The Democratic party is in favor oi
British free trade and of extending il
to this country. The Republican par
ty believes in protection, its opposed
policy. A vote for the Democratic
ticket is a vote for Great Britain auC
free trade, and, as we said before
there is no possible reason why an!
Irishman should vote for it"
