New Ulm review. (New Ulm, Brown County, Minn.) 1892-1961, 1892-10-26


to be informed Of the fact, that in 1892
under the Mckinley tariff the farmers
exported 81, ,236, ,344 bushels of wheat
as against only 65, 44O,173 bushels for
the entire 15 years Of tariff for revenue,
from 1916 to 1861; and that during this
last fiscal year the wheat exports under
the Mckinley tariff increased 1OO, O,OOO,-
900 bushels all the theories Of himself.
and Grover Cleveland to the contrary
Notwithstanding. Under one year Of
this Mckinley tariff which, according to
Mr.. Mills, says the northwestern farmer:
g You shall not send out of this country
your surplus wheat the farmers of
the Northwest have exported more wheat
to Europe than the country exported
during the entire Il years ofgovernment
from Washington down to Lincoln.
Underthe Repub blican system, therefore,
twill not be necessary for the country
to buy its manufactures in Europe and
deprive American workingmen Of en-
.ployment, in order to export wheat; and
as long as the present system holds out
it will not be necessary to close the Min
neapohs mills and buy our manufacture

After declaring in numerous passages
that Republican tariff legislation kills
commerce and prevents exports, the Tex.
as statesman, according to the Globes
version Of his three-minute remarks,
knocks his own statements into cooked
hat, with this remarkable tribute to
American commerce under the Mckinley
law-s'We are to-day shipping out Of
this country a thousand million of dol
lars Of the surplus product Of American
labor And again, ssthe surplus bread
stuffs are going, in accordance with the
laws Of God and nature, and the laws
which are sustained by the Democratic
party going to foreign countries to find
consumers. (Applause.)" J" This is the
first Democratic admission, by the way,
that the existing tariff laws are "sus-
tanned by the Democratic party
Finally, the official Democratic report
of Mr.. Mills undelivered speech puts in
to his imagination and mouth the follow.
Ing:
Why, all the reports of the manufac-.
turing establishments in the q nited States
show that the workman only gets free
trade prices for his labor,
Mr.. Mills was doubtless thinking of
the wages which he and his Democratic
associates pay colored farm hands in the
Texas cottonfelds. Heapparently never
saw Northern farm and factory hand
or inquired about their wages. He ne
yer read the reports of United States La
Dor Commissioner Carol d. Wright, or
the statistics of the British statistician
Mulhall. Mr.. Mills has been blind and
deaf to the reports given to the world by
the Scripps League of Workingmen, and
probably would not believe Reynolds
Newspaper, the English labor organ,
when it says: ''The wages paid in the
United States to the workingman is near
" double, on an average, that paid to him
in this country
Considering. the contents of the nine
column speech which Mr.. Roger G. Mills
had contracted to impose upon Mime
apo1is audience, it was wise in the state
Democratic committee that it called off
the gentleman from Texas and did not
permit him to deliverthe goods. Mime
