Abraham Lincoln as a grotectionist.

was as follows: Gentlemen, Fellow Cit

I'm this list of necessaries of life there
is not an article which did not advance
in price during the agitation and after
the passage Of the Mckinley act There is
not one, with the exceptiSh Of cabbage,
whose highest price was preached after
the enactment Of the law. The average
price of these commodities IN June, 1885.
was 10033. The average of the highest
prices was I21.27. Tie average price in
September, 1891, was l01.S2 Atone time
during the twenty-eight months. there
fore, after the passage of the Mckinley
law, the prices Of these necessary articles
of food went up $20.94 on every 800
worth, and at the close Of the period
these were still bringing $l.49 on every
500 above the prices charged before the
Fifty-first congress assembled"
Exactly, Mr.. Warner, exactly. Prices
of farm products have ruled higher since
the Mckinley tariff passed. One Of the
most gratifying results Of the senate i'll
vestigation is that it places that very
point beyond question With single
exception the things you enumerate are
those farmers sell-bread and flour of
course standing for wheat, and merely
rejecting the advance in wheat prices.
You will remember that you and your
fellows on The World were very sure
that the Mckinley tariff would depress
farm prices and ir1poverish farmers, and
you proclaimed it from almost every
crossroads in the country. Do you
really think you can now N axe votes for
free trade by deploring to the farmer the
fact that your own predictions were u
terly falsely exhibiting to him in tabu-
lar form the higher instead of the lower
prices he is receiving for e~erything he
has to sell? If ycu do think so we are
glad of it. That is all there is about

The rice and sugar planters Of Lou

formation Of an organization whose OBJ
Jet shall be to secure the election Of
