RUSK ON THE TARIFF,
The Secretary of Agriculture Tells Why
He FaYors Protection.

The Secretary of Agriculture Tells Why
He Favors Protection.
The following is al extract from a
letter on protection and reciprocity re-
Gently written by the secretary Of agri-
culture, Hon. J. NJ. Rusk:
On all articles except those we cannot
produce or manufacture ourselves under
any circumstances | would levy duty
sufficient to make foreign goods cost,
when landed and duty paid in any port
Of the United States, fully as much as
the cost of manufacturing the same goods
III this country amounts to; and this /
believe in, without any reference to the
old accepted argument Of Infant in
dustries."
would stick to this principle all the
way through, except only in the case Of
foreign goods coming from countries
which could make such concessions on
American goods as would fully offset
any concessions we might make to them,
for | am believer in reciprocity. In
fact, SO long ago as April, 1890, i'll a
communication which prepared to send
to all persons-and they were legion
who addressed me on the subject of az
ricultural depression, referred to the
advantages of reciprocity.
At the same time | think it will very
seldom be found necessary to surrender
adequate protective duties on any for
eign goods such as we can manufacture
in this country. Our reciprocal rela-
ii rs with countries III the temperate
zone, growing largely the same kind OF
agricultural products and living under
comparatively the same conditions, will
always be very limited. But just as we
have exemplifed in the case Of sugar, Of
which at present we do not produce d
quantity sufficient for our domestic sup
ply, so in regard to tea, coffee and spices,
which come to us from tropical or semi
tropical countries, there is a consider
able opportunity for the exercise of this
sound economic principle. lwould have
America buy these goods in countries
that buy American goods, putting a duty
upon such as come to us from countries
that put duty upon our goods.
1t is American labor we want to pro-
tect, and American homes, and do not,
as a consistent protectionist, regard as d
subject for free trade any article into
the production of which, in form avail
able for use, American labor enters. If
the conditions are such, for instance, i'll
Canada, that a Canadian farmer can
raise certain crops more cheaply than
we can, would protect our American
farmers by putting such duty on these
products that Canadian farmers could
not undersell them. In the same man
ner l would protect our fruit growers
from Mediterranean fruits, and would
encourage the fiber industry i'll our own
country, so that eventually the bulk Of
our hemp, fax and other vegetable fbers
should be produced at home. [ am for
the protection of the American laborers
home and labor, but am equally intent
on protecting the American farmers
home and labor.

ABRAHA1 LINCOLN.
0,OO8.

When leaving his home at Springfield
ILL.,, to be inaugurated President Of the
United States, made a farewell address
to his old friends and neighbors, in
which he said, 'NEIGIIDoRs GIVE YOUR
BOYS A CHANCE"
These words come with as much force
to-day as they did thirty years ago.
How give them this chance?
Up in the Northwestis a great empire
waiting for young, and sturdy fellows to
come and develop it and grow up with
the country" All over this broad land
are the young fellows, the boys that
Lincoln referred to, seeking to better
their condition and get on in life.
Here is their chance
The country referred to lies along the
Northern Pacific r. Il. Here you can
find pretty much anything you want.
In Minnesota, and in the Red River
Valley of North Dakota, the finest of
prairie lands fitted for wheat and grain
or as we'll for diversified farming In
Western North Dakota, and Montana,
are stock ranges limitless in extent,
clothed with the most nutritious grasses.
If 4 fruit farming region is wanted
there is the whole State of Washington
to select from.
As for scenic delights the Northern
Pacific Railroad passes through a
country unparalleled. In crossing the
Rocky Bitter Root, and Cascade
Mountains, the greatest mountain
scenery to be seen in the United States
from car windows is found. The
wonderful bad lands, wonderful in
graceful form and glowing color, are a
poem. Lakes Pend d'Oreille and Ceur
d'Alene, are alone worthy of trans
continental trip, while they are the
fisherman's Ultima Thule. The ride
along Clark's Fork of the Columbia
River is 4 daylight dream. To cap the
climax this is the only way to reach the
far famed Yellowstone Park.
To reach and see all this the Northern
Pacific Railroad furnish trains and
service of unsurpassed excellence.

electoral and state tickets were
chosen, there seemed no likelihood
that it would be by any such
plurality as is claimed by the
Democratic managers. 1t is
curious feature Of the election in
this state last Tuesday that in
many towns there were Republi-
can gains upon the vote of four
years ago, while in others there
were heavy losses on that vote,
and in some even a loss as COM
pared with the vote of two years
ago.
If the state generally had done
as we'll as Milwaukee, it would
have given ten or fifteen thousand
majority for the Republicans.
Two years ago, this county gave
a Democratic plurality of over
5000 on governor. This year it
was cut down to the meagre figure
of 25 showing that the greater
number Of those who left the
party at that time have returned
to it. Although defeated, the Re-
publicans have the satisfaction of
having contended in a good cause,
and of having presented candidates
worthy Of the popular support
Col. 6pooner made a brilliant
canvass, and his defeat, if defeated
is due to no failure on his part to
do all that could be expected of a
candidate by his party, and has in
no wise dimished the respect and
confidence which the people repose
in him.
OF the congressional delegation
four will be Republicans and eight
Democrats. The legislature is
Democratic.

''Whosoever provideth not for his own
household is worse than an infdel.'
These women belong to households
which are not provided for" They
live III free trade England. The men
in their families are not lawless nor in
different to their comfort. They cannot
with all their efforts earn enough money
to provide for the mere sustenance of
those whom they love and would cherish.
But they are not to be blamed, for the
free trade laws by which they are gov
erned bring these results.
The American man of family has a
graver responsibility. He makes his
own laws.
The election of Grover Cleveland
would imperil the home of the American
workingman and those whom he has
vowed to care for in sickness or in death.
Every man who regards the happiness
of women should realize that Grover
Cleveland stands for unprotected homes,
and that Benjamin Harrison represents
the party which has pledged itself to
keep away free trade evils.

Gilt Edged Stock at ike Mattocks Farm
Alonzo Libby's Westbrook Stock.

At the Mattocks Farm in East Bald
win, DR.. George II. Bailey, V. S., is
breeding some really. gilt edged trotting
stock. In his brood mares we find Ivy
Maid, daughter of Gilbreth Maid, 2.253,
heavy in foal to Westland. She will be
mated with Nelson this season.
Jersey Lilly, whose foal this spring by
Choralist of the Beautiful Bells and
Electioneer family was lost by accident,
goes back to the same horse.
Mamie Rolf, by Harbinger, is fine
two-year-old brown filly, the dam by
Young Rolf and full sister to Lucky
Nelson.
Easter Lily by Nelson, dam Jersey
Lily, yearling foaled Easter Sunday,
1901, and hence her pretty name.
Meg Chimney, a brown FLY two years
old by Prescott, son of Harold; dam

This is certainly fine blood for the
horse industry of Maine, and does much
credit to the public spirit of DIR. Bailey.
who has spent good deal of money and
what time he could spare from an exact
ing public position and profession for
the improvement of horses. He has
been financial loser in the effort but, his
courage never fails. Lack Of time to
give close personal attention with acct
dent or illluck has been against him rath-
Ell than the carrying out of correct ideas,
as instanced in the recent loss of colt
that would have commanded from $500
to $500 for his breeding the day he was
foaled.
When at the Mattocks Farm these
brilliant youngsters were found in prime
condition and the groom was
feeding them. He remarked that
DR.. Bailey believed in feeding
his colts literally, for they were
like growing boys and girls, they wanted
enough to eat. sWhy, l am giving his
colts twice as much grain as can afford
to give this one of mine'' A glance at
the groom's colt showed that he was not
suffering. differences may be drawn in
the general economy of stables.
A1onzo Libby's Stable.
Mr.. Alonzo Libby, at his stable in the
city of Westbrook, has quite line of
well bred horses as well as large herd
of superior cattle.
Guywood, the brown stallion five years
old, may be put at the head of the list.
His sire was lockwood and dam Maud
S., the dam Of Genetta, the three year
burn. that performed so well last year.
Guywood met with an accident at Bux-
ton Centre fair last year that was quite
unfortunate. He went to the quarter in

General Weaver, and will train and drive
him for the races this season, after a
brief period for breeding purposes. Gen
eral Weaver was by Bayard Knox, 2.36, a
son of Palmer Knox, and he by General
Knox; dam, Patchen Maid, by Geo. M.
Patchen, 2224. General Weavers only
public record was made last year in the
2.4O class over the New Gloucester track,
2.46 in the seventh heat of fighting
race. General Weaver. has many good
colts for ten year old, among them
Mr.. Maxwell's two-year-old bay filly
from Crazy Jane, dam of Barney L. 2.32.
Another is a three-year-old bay gelding,
the property of Mr.. G.. E. Whitney, that
is said to be speedy. His dams are on
the Pilot side. This promising colt will
be started this season, and good report
of his performances may be expected.
Mr.. James d. Eaton is the owner of a
fine two-year-old stallion by General
Weaver. The name is General Lambert,
in honor of his descent on the dam side,
through Lady Lambert, direct to Daniel
Lambert, probably the most lllustrious
of the Maine Morgan stock.
A Sensible Drew.

is in Westbrook, has roadster and fam
lily horse known as Little Phin, that is a
good one. Not long ago Mr.. Prides
wife and daughters were out for sleigh
ride, and in passing team were crowd
ed onto a snow bank which upset the
sleigh and spilled them all into the road.
Phin jumped and righted the sleigh; ran
few yards; stopped;s, look around and
whinnied as much as to say: "What' S
the trouble? Here / am, come and get in
again and try and be more careful" The
significance of the incident is that the
horse is a spirited one and a fast step
per and illustrates the docility and in
telligence of the fine old Drew stock.
A Cape Elizabeth Stable.
Mr.. Ernest E. Cross, the druggist at
the corner of Exchange and Fore streets,
has at his stable at Cape Elizabeth a
beautiful three-year-old stallion colt, APP
propriately christened Goldwood from
color, rare golden bay and finely bred
The sire was Orville, whose dam was by
Daniel Lambert, and Orville was by Red
wood, and he by Belmont, sire of Viking,
Nutwood and other notables. The dam
of Mr.. 'Cross's colt was well bred mare
with record of 2.4s without handling
Mr.. Cross will probably breed his speedy
mare Mary Ann, 2.42, to The Seer this
season. Mary Ann is now IL years old
and won race at Presumpscot Park last
Fourth of July. She was by Gen. Light
foot, an own son of Gen. Knox. Light
foot was located at Portland for some
years and put four of his get into the
standard 230 list.
Notes.
The Anderson mare" that her owner,
Gen. 81 Anderson, paid $500 for, is at
Ocean Farm, Deering, to be bred to
Ocean Wilkes. She is now heavy with
foal to Westland With so valuable and
speedy a mate it will be. interesting to
remember little later on which of
