1t will be seen from these statistics
rlat any duty which affects the price os
arley is of special importance TO Wis
te sin farmers. 1t is a plain matter OF
fact that under a decreased duty of more
than 30 per cent. the importation of that
article will be greatly stimulated. and
the inevitable result will be a decline of
prices. The Wisconsin barley crop Of
last year was valued Mt nearly $4,000. 000,
and a red. elton of only 10 cents a bushA
in the price in consequence of inviting
competition with Canada will incur a loss
of S6O0.O0O a year to the barley growers
of this state.
The Canadian farmers are loudly re-
joicing over the passage of the Demo-
cratic tariff law. To them ii means bet
ter times in barley raising. Ii gives them
the American market for their product;
and our farmers will find a hard expert
ence in contending with Canadian compe-
tition. Wisconsin consumes but little
more than half of the nome product. the
local consumption in 1888 being 6,3J0,0O0
bushels.
There can be no doubt as to the evn
effects of the new tariff law as it re-
CARDS barley. In 1890, when there was
a duty of 10 cents a bushel. Canada sent
to our markets over 11,00O,O0U bushels
Of barley, a quantity equal to the entire
product of the state of Wisconsin in any
one year. In 1893 the imports reached
only 1850, 761 bushels. This piece Of
history plainly indicates what will be the
sure result of the barley schedule OF the
present tariff law. That ii will be hurt
full to the barley growers of the oun
try is entirely beyond question.

Take that tumbler for example. Exhibiting a
glass from the tablet The protective duty on
that was 80 per cent for example. Every SlOo
worth OF that kind OF ware that came from Eu-
rope put into the public treasury $50. Now the
Democratic tariff is 30 per cent. Suppose you
want TO put $50 of revenue into the public treas
ury under a 30 per cent duty, how many OF
these glasses win you have to import?
you will have to import $500 worth, won't
you? One hundred dollars worth under 60 per
cent. it makes $50. Two hundred doIlars'
worth under 30 per cent. duty makes $50. SO
If you put the same amount into the trear-ry
under 30 per cent. tarif as you do under W
per cent. Sou have got to import just twies y
many OF these tumblers, haven't you? and e. y
tumbler you import into this country displaces
a tumbler which ought TO be made and Is now
made by an American workman. applause
For every additional s~hipload of thk kind OF
ware You bring from Europe you displace Just
that quantity that is made in the United

quantity you displace the number Of American

you? And You put more money into the public
treasury, but you do ii at the expense OF your

into the public treasury, because You employ
foreign labor to make your glassware: but while
you are doing that your own workmen are Idle
