TAX on BINDING TwINE.

IAN On nlNi-s
OUEsTIoS-Is it true that there is pro-
tective duty on binding Irvine used by
farmers in binding their sheaves of wheat
and oats.
ANswER-lt is.
Y. But this looks like a penalty on the
farmer for raising wheat and oats
A. 1t is penalty on him
Q. What is this penalty?
A. Forty per cent. on Irvine and twenty
per cent. on the Manila it is made of 1t
takes $4,000 tons year to bind the crop OF
the ,un;ry. which, at manufactures price,
Is cents "A pound, is worth $3.50 ton, or
Sl3 900. 600 for the whole. Onr half this
is protection. 1t is Ill le.is a half cent per
bushel, which on the Missouri crop for
1889, $4,000, 900 bushels of wheat aud 49,
600 600 bushels of oats, amounts TO $780,
600.
@. Is this in addition to Il fair price for
the Irvine?
A. Yes. The whole cost of the twine for
the whole Missouri wheat and oats crop is
5000 600, and one-half this is for protection.
K. Do you mean to assert that the far
mers of Missouri have to pay penalty OF
$500 600 for raising wheat and oats?
A. Yes.

THE HOME MARKET.

Q. You will certainly admit that it is
wise and just to keep our home market for
our own people, and not to admit foreign
rivals to the benefits of it without paying
for them?
A. What do You mean by our home mar
ket?
Q. The markets of our own country.
A. Would you exclude foreigners from
buying in our markets?
@. No, not that; but exclude them from
selling in our home market.
A. If they bring their goods here, whom
do they want to sell to?
@. Our people | suppose.
A. What you really mean, then, by for
bidding foreigners to sell in our home mar
kets is forbidding our own people to buy in
our markets, unless they buy home made
goods at any price the home manufacturers
may please to charge. Making foreigner
pay for the privilege of selling in our mar
ket is only roundabout way of making
our people pay Tor the privilege of buying
in it-for, the cost falls upon them, at last.
Q. How can that be?
A. In this way we charge the Canadl-
ans g a barrel for selling salt mackerel in
our markets. The Canadians pay it and
add it to the price-making a $40 barrel of
mackerel cost the American buyers Sl2.
Q. Yes: bnt suppose the patriotic Amer
lean mackerei eater refuses to buy from the
Canadian, and purchases from New Eng
land fish dealer.
A. 1t is all the same. The patriotic
New England fish dealer adds the 81 to
what, but for the tariff, would be his price,
aud makes his beloved mackere- eating
coun,rymen pay $l2 for the barrel Of fish
which the Canadian would be only too glad
to let him have for $40
Q. Do y"u mean tn It when we exclude
foreigner from our home market, or tax
him for the privilege of it, We ,uGaii the
liberties of our own people?
A. That is the effect in the end Moth
ing can be palmer II you make Smith
pay for selling tn Jones, you make Jones
pay for buying from Smith II Smith has
81 knife to sell, and You tax him % cents
for the privilege, he adds this to the price,
and makes Jones pay $l.25 for the article.
The penalty fall, on Jones, at last. You
make him pay % cents for buying a 81
knife in the market of his own country.
