We could sell in the markets of the
world with free raw materials, could
We? The president of the Associated
Chambers of Commerce of the United
Kingdom ought to know something
about those markets, and he asserted
on March s, in London, that % he be-
lieved the present capacity in the
worlds markets to- receive had been
reached" He based his opinion not
on theories, either, but on solid fact
namely, England's decreasing sales in
those markets. Yet she has free ma
terials, and cheap labor besides. &.

FOREiGN COMMERCE.

Free Traders tell us that if we do moi
buy we cannot sell, that a Protective
Tariff strangles foreign commerce
But, as usual, their statements are
contrary to facts and figures.
Everybody buys where he can do Sc
advantageously. We are now export
ing nearly thousand million of dol
lars worth annually, more than eve,
before in our history and more FER CAP
Ha.
We are importing more than eve
before, too, but with this difference
Our free imports have largely increas
ed, while our dutiable imports have de
creased, both of which are to an advan
tage of American labor and industries
Our balance Of trade has for som.
time been on the right side, and is con
stantly increasing.
For this the Mckinley Tariff and Re
ciprocity are in a large measure re
sponsible
We are now making and exporting
the goods we used to buy.
Uncle Sam is doing larger bushes:
at home and selling more good.
abroad. This is just the sort o
strangulation we like.
We are importing industries now in
stead of goods, and our laborers ant
farmers are reaping the benefit.
On the other hand, Free Trade would
have, and has had, just the opposite
effect. Then there would be an adverse
balance of trade. We would buy
abroad instead of producing at home
Our mills would be closed and ou1
workmen idle We would then see
strangulation," and with it poverty
and ruin.
Next November our voters will de
eide whether we continue the policy Of
Protection and reciprocity and a favor
able trade balance, or whether we adopt
Free-Trade and an adverse balance O
trade, with all that must accompany
it.-4mey7daH Economist.

RHODE ISLAND FOR PROTECTION

Rhode Island has fired the first gun of
the campaign. and it is not Iopgun. but
twelve-incl rife. The significance OF
the Republican victory consists not So
much in the election of publican
governor and legislature, though that is
detIded. as in the fact that the national
Democracy deliberately made the State
the InItiatory battlefield of 1892. and
converted the election into national
contest. They concentrated in Rhode
Island all the money that they could get
together from other parts of the country
sent there their ablest orators in the par
ty. excluded the free silver issue as far
as they could, and planted themselves
squarely on the ahrogation of the present
tariff, using a Free. wool bill as speci
m N of their craftsmanship, with the re
suit that Rhode Island has given Re-
publican majority for the first time since
1888. when the same issue confronted the
voters.
This should dispose of Mr.. Cleveland
as presidential aspirant. The elections
in the West show that the h pes of Dem
ocratic success. under his leadership III
that quarter are purely chimerical. and
the vote in Rhode Island. where the
Democrats had for three years obtained
heavy pluralities. makes it obvious that
New England is still Republican on all
Issues vitality affecting the pros
perity of the nation. The passage of the
Free Wool bill last week in the House
under such discouraging circumstances
must have been lugubrious perform
ance. The sasacity of those Democratic
leaders who opposed Mills for speaker
is now made apparent. The country,
while it has before it the spectacle Of
millions in every nation in Europe clam
oring for bread. or the work by which il
can be obtained. is in no mood to change
an industrial system under which con
tentment and abundance prevail aud
restitution among honest people is the
exception.

Question No. 80. Has the Mckinley
Tariff caused tie prize Of cotton to Be
ioa0?
No. No more than it has caused the
p ice of Shakespeare's autographsto be
high. There are very few Of the auto
graphs of Shakespeare in existence
hence they cost great deal. There Is
more cotton in the United States than
there is demand for throughout the
whole world; consequently the price
of Gotten is low. The McKinley law
had no more to do with that than ii
had with the color of the moon. -,

There are two ways in which the
reformer' looks at our reciprocity
policy. When confronted with the
facts showing its success wherever
tried and, therefore, hard pressed for
want of an argument, he says that
reciprocity is only another name for
Free-Trade, anyway" At all other
times he slightingly refers to it as a
hunbug." Here we have another
opportunity to see the shifty methods
of the cobdenite, for by strict logical
reasoning this proves what? That
Free Trade is a humbug

TO OUR MANY FRIENDS AND PA.
irons.

Owing to the fact that the credit
system is becoming a serious hardship
TO the consumers as well as to the
merchants, We have decided to change
our method of business to q strictly
cash basis.
Knowing from experience that we
can sell better goods for less money
for spot cash than can be done by
selling on time. thus giving the cash
patrons the benefit of the many losses
that always accumulate by selling on
credit, we will make prices that will
interest you enough to pay cash, and
will not sell on time from this date.
No more credit.
All goods warranted as represented
or money returned. Try the cash sys-
TEN for one year and see if you don't
save from 20 to 25 per cent.
