A Novel Defense for Frce-Trade
American Economist:

American Economist:
The labor troubles at Homestead
were welcomed as Godsend by the
political manipulators of the Free
Trade party. So overcome with joy
were these prophets of calamity at the
prospect of having some material for
doleful homilies oyer the ruinous con-
dition Of our country under Protection,
that one Southern paper forgot itself
SO far as to say that the Carnegie
strike was the greatest boon that
could have been conferred on the
Democrats" AS yet, however, we
have heard of no Protectionist whose
faith has wavered on account of the
falsehoods and Misrepresentation of
the demogogue performers but one;
and so novel, in fact refreshing, are
this converts reasons for becoming a
Free Trader that it is worth while re-
producing them entire. AS stated in
an interview:
He claimed that any Protection that
enabled the common workman to
make from S6 to IS per day was too
much Protection. He claimed that it
cost him $500 to obtain his college
education, and that there was not one
half of his graduating class that could
earn the half of So per day. His ar
gument WAS that, as it was difficult
for any college bred man to earn over
81 per day, any system that enabled an
uneaucateu laborer to earn double that
was vicious, and, therefore, he favored
Free Trade.
We mistake much if the Free Trad
ers, while, of course, secretly agreeing
with every word here spoken, Will
raise a great shout of triumph over
this lonely individual whom the Home.
stead strike has made a full iledged
Cohdenite. In fact, we think they
Will rather try to prevent his saying
anything at all, for fear that the result
Will only be increased majorities for the
Protection cause. AS the Homestead
strike was going to be clincher
against the Tariff. however it is sig
niticant that the only man attracted
to the Free Trade camp is one who re-
VOLS at the high wages paid protected
workers, and thinks that safe remedy
for this evil is Free Trade "reform'
which, he knows, can always be safely
depended on to lower wages and pau
perize labor.

The Country Prosperous.

The business Of the country Is in

year ending June 50 were greater than
10 eight hundred and thirty-three mil
lion dollars. while exports also exceed
I'd the highest record and reached the
enormous aggregate of one billion and
twenty seven million dollars Rail
road earnings for the first SIX months
IF the year are greater than those for
any similar period in history, and the
output Of manufactures has been great
cr than ever before. Business failures
for the first half Of the present year
have been enc Thousand fewer in mum
l.er and forty million dollars less III
gross liabilities than they were during
the corresponding period Of 1891, New
industrial enterprises for manufacture
ing iron cotton and wooden fabrics
are going into operation in various
sections. and while the margin Of
profits is small, business is on a solid
foundation. and the outlook in every
direction IS hopeful and encouraging.
The grain crop is promising, money is
abundant and collections are easy.
In the face OF such Il condition Of
things, the calamity bowler must re-
rnase silent. His bowling will scare

Our Dry Dock.

No doubt great many of Our people
have forgotten that the barge company
was building a dry dock at all. The
work has gone on quietly tut none the
less vigorously since early spring open
ing and now it is almost completed.
1t is one of the largest and best dry
docks il, this country and is one of Su-
periOr's best Institutions. The Lead
er, in 4 recent issue, gave the follow
ing description of the dock, which will
do doubt be interesting to our readers
both at home and abroad:
The Superior dry dock is by all odds
the largest on the lakes. It's 800 feet
long on keel blocks; so feet wide; Is
feet depth Oh blocks. The dock of the
Detroit Dry Dock company, which is
considered large, will not compare
with the one just completed here. 1t
is only 37S feet long. - feet wide and
IL feet deep The Port Huron. Mich.
dock, owned by Duntord Il Alverson,
is advertised as the largest one on the
lakes. 1t h:.S been heretofore, but is
not now. 1t is one hundred feet sloft-
or than the Superior dock. The other
dimensions of the Port Huron dock
are: Top width 95 feet; depth to sill
Is feet The width aad depth figures
compare favorably with the Superior
dock
The Superior dock viii hold at one
time two of the largest lake vessels,
| 1t will hold two of the longest whale
backs This dock was built by the
American Steel Barge company.
| BY September the water viii flow in
/ to the great dock and the first vessel
will be taken in. The engine house
has been completed and the two mann
moth Porter engines are in place ready
to start at any time. The two pumps
each draw Il fifteen inch stream of
water and can empty the dock in three
| hours.
The dredging has already been done
as near to the water as can he with
safety. \ line of pine is run along the
upper side from which hose will be run
to wash the bottom of the dock when
the water is ont.
| The most unique part Of the dock is
the gate which is now being built
/ Near the tow it is shaped Ike a boat
50 that when the water is let in it Gun
| be tioated out of the way. There are
valves in the bottom through which
the water can he let in to sink it.
The dock will hold two large vessels

American Economist
Despite all the talk about the hard
ships of the farmer, he is king com
pared to his father or grandfather.
If he doubts, let him hunt up the
old gentleman day book of forty
wears ago and note the prices then.
\ hushel of wheat would buy I of =
barrel of salt; it will new buy barrels
\ bus,sei of corn would buy !! pounds
of sugar, today it VIII buy III pounds
Ten pounds of butter bought 33ll
wards of cotton cloth then; now it pur-
chases 4s5 yards.
Ten pounds of cheese We're worth .
pounds of nails; the cheese now pays
for 81 pounds OF nails.
\ pound of washed wool grown ten
wears before the war would buy ) of
! a barrel Of salt, ) 5-6 pounds Of sugar,
q yards of cotton cloth or l0pounds OF
nails. Today his own pound of wool
will pay for { of 4 barrel of salt, S
pounds of sugar, 81 yards of cotton
cloth and - pounds Of nails.
These figures are based on New York
City prices. But as matter CT fact
he never realized anything like those
prices in his local market.
Freights were high, and when the
cost of bringing produce to the New
York market was deducted from New
York prices for farm produce, and the
cost of bringing the merchandise from
New York the village store at which
he traded was added to the price of
what he bought, the average farmer
was really not more than half as well
off ten years before the war as our
figures would indicate.
For instance, in 1857 it cost 25i cents
| to bring a bushel of wheat by the
cheapest route from Chicago to New
/ York; in 1891 it cost less than six
cents.
Surrounded by these conditions life
| on the farm was hard indeed. Calico
and Kentucky jean had to do for sun

| to ride to church was the height OF
style.

unknown; Johnny cake and salt pork
