There was once a prejudice
against Cottonseed oil. But
people who are alive, who
Investigate, who have no
bigotry in their composition,
have found that pure, refined
cottonseed oil combined with
selected beef suet is a better
article in every conceivable
way than hogs lard. And so

appreciative persons.

A Democratic FAIIacy.

IL is interesting 10 note no. absolutely
the Democratic editor and stump speaker
is Obliged tn stick To the idea of barter IN
order To make even seeming hcaiway
against the protective tariff. Nov barter
belongs to primitive times. ltthriFes today
chiefly among the tribes of Darkest Africa.
In the great commercial transactions of
modern times gold and silver has become
the medium OF exchange ',ur trade with
foreign nations, the transportation in
which is chiefly done by large lines of iron
steamships, will be- regulated by the law of
supply and demand, and not by any con
siderations of barter. Mr.. johnson at Gar
diner in illustrating his ielea of swap in in
t.rnational commercial transactions, pie
tured cargo of wheat carried To England
and bartered for "A thousand blankets, six
hundred of which, or the value thereof are
appropriated by the rapacious custom house
officials upon the return home. He dld
not inform hi. hearers what there was to
hinder the owner Of the wheat from ex-
changing il for English gold There is
no duty upon that at our custom houses
and it would buy many

blankets right here in this country, As the
wheat would have exchanged for in England
These blankets would have great advantages

yantages which Mr.. johnson, as A patriotic
American citizen. should be quick To recog-
nize They would BE- woven of American
wool. on American looms by American la
Dor. When the owner of the wheat bartered
it m England for British blankets, he bene-
fitted the people of that country TO the whole
value of the finished product aside from the
raw material. lie was paying the wages
of British laborers aud bringing home the
result of ii TO lessen 50 much the industrial
opportunities of our own people. Now let Us
suppose that instead of blankets he received
cash for his wheat, as woul /, in fact be the
case in real business, what would he the

home and c0ui therefore expeud the
whole of it in the purchase of blankets.
In this way il wouli go TO swell the
prosperity of this country by fur
nishing employment to its labor. As a
people those blankets would cost us
simply the raw material consumed in their
manufacture The labor that made them
into the finished product, and impaired to
them nine tenths of their value, was our
own: its remuneration goes into the various
channels of our trade contributing thereby
to the general welfare. Mr.. johnson
did not inform his hearers what there
was to prevent us from selling all the goods
we had to export in any country of the
world upon quite as advantageous terms as
other nations except, upon the f,llacious the
ary that International commercial transac-
tons are purely matter of barter in goods.
and that money. civilizations great medium
of exchange, has no part in such transac-
tons.
The weakness of such an argument must
h. apparent 10 all. and vet it is the founda
ton upon which the Democracy builds its
opposition TO the wise protective policy that
believes in building mp home industries
to supply home needs.
