shows that both failures and liabili.
ties for the second and third quarters
this year were decidedly less than for
the corresponding quarters last year
There was no panic during the first
quarter Of 1898, and yet the number Of
failures and the amount Of liabilities
were both greater than during either
the second or the third quarter Of the
present year In other words, there
have been less business disasters iD
the same length Of time since the LIST
Of April this year than there were dur
ing the first quarter Of 1898, when. &C.
cording to the protection philosophers
the country was still on the mountain
top Of prosperity, where IL had been
placed by the Mckinley act
The comparison shows that the panic

This is another fact which the c@

mans Wages.

Mckinley. the logical candidate oi
the republican party for the prest
deney. says that there are two ways oi
checking importations--one by impos.
ing fnll or prohibliive tariff and the
other ly lowering wages.
Then Il ought 20 be found that full
or pruhihitive tariff increases wages
both Ia the special Hines of protected
sndustHy and generally throughout
thc country. Mckinley made tariff
and the result was lowered wages IN
the most fully protected lines and q
tendency downward In NIL waRe-earn.

Simultaneously apparent that the intel.
ligent workingman can see the swell
Of increase starting from the particu-
lar point and lifting the level OF the
whole country, Il Is never apparent at
oil. and the worlsingman must take
McKinley's word for the blessings that
attend a prohibitive rate.
In 1892 the republican platform de-
mandcd duties equal to the difference
in wages between the United States
and countries which might send goods
here.
Democrats at once promised that
they would not propose u tariff in this
congress which would not give duties
to that amount Not that they agreed
to any connection between tariff and
wages, but that they had no desire TO
at once radically reduce duties TO the
extent literal compliance with the
republican platform would require. To
fit a tariff TO the republican platform
IL would be necessary TO figure out the
cost of each protected article. For in
stance, the tariff maker must flnd ont
how much the manufacturers here
and abroad pay for the labor employed
Woodville Republican., 1894-11-03

In making ton of iron, yard OF dress
goods and a set OF table china. lie
would find out that the American
manufacturer pays less than the Eng
lish and a great deal less than the
Spanish or Italian.
Hence, TO reduce duties to meet the
republican platforms demand would
be to abolish them altogether. Oi
course. the republicans did not intend
TO demand free trade, but TO construe
their platform according TO the known
facts of manufacturing production
would be TO liberate trade, absolutely
and finally.
Both the republican platform of 1892
and the logical republican candidate
for 1890 have either lied TO the Ameri-
can people or have exposed singular
ignorance of facts. The second suppo-
sition is true one in McKinley's case.
He is probably the most ignorant man
that ever led on an economic issue in
any country. He gave himself over
early to commonplace generalizationa
and has done no more In his later
career.
II he knew what he was talking
about his speeches would be wretched

IL it were not for the difficulty OF
saving the seeds of vetch, it would be
one of the most popular of southern
forage plants.
1t belongs to the legumes, and the
little pods that bear the seed pop open
as soon as they get a little dry, and
scatter the seed over the ground. On
account of the care involved In saving
seed, there is comparatively little seed
saved, and the price is such as TO deter
most farmers from sowing II.
II a crop of veteh is allowed TO seed
even once on piece ofland, a crop can
be made for a number of years in the
same manner that a crop Of burr clover
is renewed.
Vetch and burr clover are much alike
in habit, springing up in the autumn,
thriving in the winter, yielding fine
pastures or good moving in the early
spring, making seed and dying down
completely before the hot weather Of
June The seeds lie in the ground,
with no disposition 70 sprout until the
