Coming Down to Business.

The people are weary of sectionalisn

that it accompanies no good; that the
bloody shirt was an obsolete emblem
and that while they have been enter
tanned by such useless sentimentalisn
the party in power has been planning
centralism and invasion upon theil
rights. In word, the great mass of the
people have ceased to be entertained by
the fireworks and pyrotechnic political
displays and propose to come down to
business once mole in order to remedy
their misfortunes and put the govern,

tion laid down for its progress.-Natchez

The South viii Remain Solid.

OF course the south is solid. And
so will the south remain in politics while
political party exists to threaten the
substitution of negro domination for the
supremacy of the white race. The
Democratic party is the white mans
party, and its followers comprise large
majority of the white men in all sections
OF the Union, not only in the south, but
also in the north. Today but for the
colored vote the Republican party could
not carry ten states, and that vote is
gradually abandoning the organization,
after the manner of rats deserting a
sinking ship.-Little Rock Gazette.

In 1890, just before the Democratic
tidal wave struck his bill, Mr.. Mckinley
asserted in a public address that "this
whole system of cheap things is badge
ofpoverty." Fearing that the people will
this year take the same view of Mckinley
ism which they entertained two years
ago, Mr.. Mckinley is bobbing up in this
state, and that with the pretense that his
bill was intended to make things cheap
and has had that result. Has Mr.. Nc
Kinley deceived himself, or is he de-
liberately attempting to deceive others?

RECIPROCITY'S WORK
1T HAS CAUSED A DECREASE OF
EXPORTS OF FARM PRODUCTS,

Some Figures Which Reveal a Startling
culturists-Reciprocity Is a Hollow
Fraud and a Sham.
1t was Mr.. Blaine's prediction that the
Mckinley bill would not open market
for single barrel of pork or bushel of
wheat. 1t has been shown that even
with the reciprocity amendment the
market for breadstuffs is falling off, and
the same story is true of most of our
beef and hog products and of our butter
and cheese.
Not only is reciprocity not helping the
farmer to a larger market, but the nat
ural increase of exports of his products,
the increase that was going on before
the Mckinley bill was conceived. has
been stopped and decrease has taken
its place.
The following table shows the growth
IN exports of the principal articles of
provisions in the twenty years from 1870
to 1S90
Beer products. .......... 5,15+,639 3O,l5l ,026
Dairy products. ........... 9,6l4262 l3,OSl $50
After this came the Mckinley act
with its potent reciprocity blessings, and
with the following results
1890 1891.
Hog products. ia SSi 90S, ,69S
Beef products. ............ D,l51026 35,0SS,3 ,3l5
DAIRY products.........., l3,0SlS S56 9,S63. $50
There was u falling off in hog and
dairy products, while the increase in the
value of beef products was about So
600, 900 less than was demanded by the
normal rate of increase prevailing for
the twenty years between 1870 and 1890.
This general decline of the business of
exporting provisions continues. The
official returns for September are now
before us, and they are anything but
satisfactory to the farmer who has been
basing his hopes on the reciprocity pro-
visions of the Mckinley law.
The following table shows the quanti-
ties of certain dairy beef and hog prod
ucts exported in September, 1891, and

The statistics for dairy products are
made up for five months only, but they
show that in that period, ending Sept.
30, 1892, the exports of butter were less
by 3,500,000 pounds than for the CORE
spending period of 1891.
Now as to the prices. The exports of
cattle increased in number, but the aver
age price per head in 1892 was about
sixtyeight doll&rs and in 1891 about
lightweight dollars, while, notwith-
standing the higher price of cans, the
price of canned beef remained about the
same. Salted meat brought cents in
1892 and little more than 81 cents in
1891. Hogs brought S7.72 in 1892 and
50 in 1891 Fresh meat brought So
cents in 1892 and S15 cents in 1891.
This is the showing made by the Off
cial statistics of the operation of jug
handled reciprocity on the business of
exporting provisions. 1t is noteworthy
fact that The Tribune has finally come
to the sage conclusion that it was not
the Mckinley law that was responsible
for the large expectations of breadstuffs
in 1891, but the large crop at home and
the short crops abroad. 1t reaches the
further conclusion also that the large
crop is accountable for the fall in prices.
If the Mckinley law cannot overcome
such simple and fundamental laws of
nature, what good is it to the farmer?
Was the act not intended to beat the
laws OF nature? And is not the farmer
taxed on his clothes and other neces-
saries of life in order that the prices of
his crops may advance?
The Tribune is resorting to the law of
nature, not by way of returning to a
sound mind, but to reconcile the farmer
to the loss of his export trade. But what
can be its explanation of this decline in
provisions? There was no unusual crop
of bacon, beef, butter and cheese in
1891. On the contrary, it has been shown
that with the exception of beef the ex
ports of these articles fell off from 1890
to 1891, while as to beef the increase of
exports was not up to the normal
The truth is that the reciprocity clause
has not helped the farmer to foreign
market for any of his products, and the
pretense that it does help him is nothing
more nor less than gross ignorance or
/ arrant lying. York World.
