SDeach of Senator Mills.

In noticing the speech of Senator
Mills, of Texas, April oath, the Bait
Sun says she sketched the tariff bill he
would have framed had he constituted
the whole finance committee of the
Senate. He would have taxed coffee,
tea and sugar to get part of the revenue
the government requires. He would
have put on the free list all articles
that must be further manufactured be-
fore going into consumption, thus ia
voring the consumer with cheaper
wares and at the same time stimulat-
ing manufacturing and increasing the
demand for labor. Wages vary with
the demand for labor When the tariff
wall is thrown down our trusts, unable
longer to put up prices by closing fac
tories, will increase their production
and reemploy their discharged
employees. The happy era of high
wages for labor and low prices for prod
ucts will arrive, to the great joy of the
masses of the people. The tariff, Mr..
Mills argued rightly, is an obstacle to
the employment of labor. Protection
by checking imports has checked ex-
ports, thus lessening the labor employ
ed in producing articles that find sale
abroad. 1t has not made home mar
ket for the farmer. 1t is the parent of
strikes, lock-cuts and hard times. 1t
has had its day. Republican reciproc-
ity with the competing agricultural ma
tions of South and Central America,
Mr. Mills showed, is a cheat. The reci-
procity American farmers want is with
their best customers-England, Ger
many and France-countries that will
take our grain and meat in exchange
for their manufactures. American Ia
Dor will not be cheapened by large I'M
ports, since American labor, measured
by it's quantity of product, is already
the cheapest in the world. 1t gets the
highest. wages because it produces more
per day per man than foreign labor
does. 1t does not, therefore, fear COM
petition. Mr.. Mills says he will sup
port the tariff bill as it is from a sense
of duty to the party. He would like it
little more radical-a little less pro-
tective-but he is ready to vote for it.
If amendments can be had he will offer
them, but the country wants action
and the Senator is not less anxious to
have the tariff question settled"

Fodder and Pasture Question.
We had during the last week the
first Farmers Institute which was
ever held in this place, and the result
overtopped anything we dreamed OF.
Instead of two days we had three
days and four evenings. The atten-
dance of farmers was large, and the
interest never tagged for a moment.
There were four of the professors OF
the Brookings Agricultural College
here; they were unstinted, in their
praise, and entered enthusiastically
into the interest felt by our people.
The discussion covered every field OF
western agriculture. The South
Dakota farmer is certainly an intelli-
gent quantity, Judging by the atten-
ton, discussion and inquiries made.
It was surprising to see what an a
mount of forensic element came tothe
front during the discussions. 1t was
wonderful to see the number OF work
ing farmers who could stand up be-
fore an audience and address it gram
matically and intelligently.

Destroy the Sheep.

With all the talk in the senate
among the democracy, scarcely a
democrat has been heard to utter a
word in favor Of the sheep husbandry,
which, in 1898, employed, in the value
of sheep alone, $116,O00,0o0. here
is>opposition to the iron, the coal and
the sugar provisions of the Wilson
bill, but not a word is raised in de-
tense of the great sheep and wool in
dustry of the northern farmers. Dem
ocratic senators are friendly to pro-
lection of interests which will be hos
tile to their return to the, senate, but
when the interest Of the great farm
ing masses is in jeopardy, no demo
crat has the voice to say anything to
stay the hand of democratic destruc-
ton inaugurated by Grover Cleve-
land. The great aim of the demo
cracy is. to get the Wilson bill
through congress, income tax and all,
with as little change as possible. But
in some democratic states there are
interests that need protection, and to
conciliate the democratic senators
from those states, amendments pro-
tecting the iron, coal and sugar pro-
ducers may be allowed. The demo
cracy of the house nay yield to these
demands rather than to have the bill
too badly defaced by the majority of
the senate. But when protecting the
industries we have named why should
the farming industry be sacrificed to
foreign competition? Nothing could
be more unjust: than this scheme to
destroy the sheep industry of the
northern states. These men are en-
titled to as much protection as the
iron or the sugar, or the coal produc-
ser, hut unfo nately these dlustries
are largely located in states where
democracy has the power, and the
loyal and hard working farmers of
the North are to be sacrificed on the
alter of free trade to satisfy a lifelong
hatred of the sheep. The democracy
will learn, however, when it is too
late, that the farmers who assisted in
giving them power at the last cleo
ton, will undo the awful work of des-
truction next fall Window Re-
porter.
