North Dakota, Minnesota, Yer
mont, Wisconsin, Ohio, Michigan,
Iowa, Montana, West Virginia,
Pennsylvania, Indiana and Arizona.
Of these the Ohio exhibit is the
largest. Foreign countries having
large wool exhibits are Australia,
Cape of Good Hope, Argentine
Republic, Arabia, East India, Mo-
rocco, Russia, Germany. Peru.
Portugal, Spain, Thibet. Ireland,
China and England. There is ii
handsome exhibit of honey by many
states, with Illinois in the lead.
Canada exhibits ii cheese weigh
ing twenty-five thousand pounds.
New Hampshire has on exhibition
a wooden plow which was used by
the late Daniel Webster. | cannot
tell the half of what l saw which
interested me in this building. |
will say, however, before closing,
that what | saw here to. day pre-
sents mighty interesting object
lesson, and if it does not set some
people to thinking shall! be mis-
taken. For example. look at the
states of this union which are large
wool growers and then look at the
foreign wool on exhibition as given
above. | had talk with the New
South Wales people on the wool
question and they say they don't
wish anything better than twelve
cents pound for wool. They have
nothing TO do but to drive their
hocks from one pasture to another.
For this a man and shepherd dog
only are required, and the man
does not cost much more than the
dog. With wool on the free list it
looks like these fellows would have
soft snap. No wonder they
exhibit so largely. There is here
the finest exhibit of honey which
the world ever saw, but right along
side of Illinois, with the largest
exhibit among the states, stands
Greece as II competitor.
New York has a fine exhibit of
crackers, cakes, biscuits, confec-
tionery, mustard, pickles and the
like. Right by her side is France
with an exhibit OF these same arti-
cles. SO l might 60 on with long
list, but what | have said is sutfi-
Gent for my purpose. am incln-
ed to think there will be enough IN
this object lesson to cause many
people to reyise their notions of the
tariff question. No wonder foreign
nations have such fine exhibits of
wool and many other staple articles
which we produce. They want a
market here for their products, and
If we take the tariff off these arti-
Giles they will probably get what
they are looking for. That may
cheaper many articles to the con-
sumer, but will he be gamer or
loser in the long run? That is the
question. II. JAY.
