In the case OF every commodity here
given we see that the purchasing power
of the products of the farm is far
greater now than it was in 1850 under
free trade The absolute return in goods
for the farmers labor has greatly in
creased, and the farmer himself is there
fore more prosperous and has within
his reach more comforts and luxuries
than ever before. 1t cannot be denied,
of course, that the farmer has had causes
for complaint within recent years, that
during those years he did not prosper as
he should have done. The rapid de-
velopment of our immense agricultural
resources, out of all proportion to the
demand for the products of the farm,
caused depression in agriculture
For this depression free trade would
be no cure; in fact, it would be the
greatest of all evils. What the Ameri-
can farmer has always needed and still
needs to-day is fewer competitors and
more customers, fewer farmers and
more mechanics, larger and more
certain market. Where is this market
to come from? Not from the people of
Europe, for they have at their command
other and vast resources of supply; not
from the people of South America, for
some of them are already dangerous
competitors of ours in the markets of
the world. 1t can only come from our
own country, from larger consuming
class engaged in other industries Not
until that larger class has arisen, and it
cannot but arise if we continue our
present policy of national protective
tariff, will our agricultural producers
have still higher prices for the products
of 4ha farm

Bad for the Calamityites.

The Weekly Review of Trade pub
lished by r. &. Dun & Co.'S commercial
agency speaks as follows of the fiscal
year ending June 80:
A fiscal year never matched in the whole his.
tory of the country in volume OF industrial pro-
duction, in magnitude Of domestic exchanges, or
in foreign Trade, has Just closed. The imports
for the year have been about 1888 900, the in
crease in New York in June over last year be-
ing about IS per cent Exports from New York
gained 1874 per cent, and the aggregate for the
earnings have been the largest in any year thus
far, and clearings in June the largest ever
known in that month, exceeding last year per
cent, and for the whole year, the largest ever
known outside of New York. Failures for the
half year have been $500, against 6,073 in 1891,
and liabilities S62 0000 900, against S92 900 600, and
on the whole about the smallest for five years.
| In spite of low prices additional works are GO
| ing into operation even in the iron manufacture
| and yet more in wooden and cotton. Moreover,
the crops of this year promise to be very salts
factory, and the new half year begins with ex-
cellent prospects,
Not only have imports and exports
greatly increased, but worllngmen, far
mers, manufacturers, all are prosperous
as never before. It's a bad year for the
calamityites, and these slanderers OF
American enterprise and enemies OF
American progress will be repudiated
as they deserve to be on the eighth
of November next

BEssEMER pig iron sells for S11.92 a
ton in England. According to Grover
Cleveland's theory it should cost that
with the duty (s6.7a) added, or SIs.64 a
ton. in this country. But it is actually
selling in Pittsburgh for Sl4.50 ton,
only sass above the English price.
This means that if residents of the in
terror states were allowed to import pig
iron free of duty, they would find it
cheaper to buy in the protected market
of Pittsburgh than to pay the London
price with freights and other charges
added.

"TALK about foreign markets." ex-
claimed the president of one of the
largest manufacturers of silver-plated
ware in the country. 81 would rather
have the state of New York for a mar
Iet for our goods than the whole of
the continent of Europe. We are pre-
tectionists, not so much on account of
benefits derived by our business direct
" from the tariff, but because we ap-
preeiate the superior purchasing power
of the American people over that of
Europeans, and we know that that
superiority is due primarily to protec-
ton. We want American workers to
receive high wages so that they can af-
ford to buy our goods"

A Portland Character.

One of the characters of Portland is a
German Jew, whom any business man in
Maine would trust with $4,000 if he
wished it. He buys about $1,000 worth
of dry goods and millinery annually in
job lots and sells it all over the state
through the medium of some 25 or 80
basket peddlers. He makes evidently a
good profit, for he is worth ooer $25, 900,
though he cannot read or write, and cam
not be taught to do either. Several
times the attempt has been made to
teach him to form the initials of his
name for the purpose of signature, but
he cannot form the letters so they can be
recognized as snch. He can add and
subtract, and has a young man to keep
his accounts, which he is able to prove
correct or the reverse, because he has
learned that certain combinations of
marks mean certain kinds of lace, etc.
He can not name the letters or any of the
words. They are simply symbols to
him

Some Rare Bird visitors.

Some birds that are rarely met with in
this state have paid visit to the islands
in the harbor recently. On Great
Diamond, one day last week gentle
man, who happened to be bird-lover
and observer, noticed among the pale
green foliage of a clump of bushes some
flashes of the most brilliant scarlet,
making an indescribably charming effect.
On nearer approach the moving bits of
scarlet proved to be three gorgeous
birds, a little smaller than a robin and
the brightest scarlet in color from the
head to the end of the tail, with the ex-
ception Of the wings which were glossy
black. Although he had observed birds
for over dozen years in this vicinity
the gentleman had never before seen a
specimen of the beautiful scarlet tan
ayers, as he knew these kinds to be.
Their habitant is in the Middle States
and it is rare indeed that straggler gets
as far north as Maine, although they are
occasionally seen here.
On Peaks Island last week red
phalerope in full plumage was shot and
subsequently it was purchased by one of
our local taxidermists. The phaleropes
are shore birds and are much similar in
shape to the sandpipers though different
in habits. The red phalerope is the
rarest of the three species found in North
America. There is only one other speci-
men of this bird in this city and that is
in the possession of one of our local
physicians, who obtained it with much
difficulty.
