 ican Industry.
 Dun's Review is away off on its to. that "a freeze may set eyervtb;rr back" in business and industrial ,D
 ters There is no probability of a~ early injurious ''freeze" We b,ra had a cool summer, the temperatT.e for the year is still considerably belo,U normal, and as we usually have abor, the same aggregate of heat eacS year the proba bility is that there will be no killing frosts until after all tba crops have fully matured If the "two great commercial agencies" as BlprS der Boies called them so frequently ;n the campaign of two years ago w;n weekly give the public more statistic in regard to the steadily increasing i'm ports of foreign goods into the UnitaS States and the constant decrease in o,r exports, under the Wilson-Gornan tariff, the people of the United States will understand why the heavy busi' ness" we ought to be doing is post. poned from month to month. Brad. streets report for last week, did con. tain one comparison by which the peo- pie of the United States are given the proof of the benefits derived from nro- lection against competing products under the Mckinley tariff, as compared with their great losses under the Cor. man-Wilson tariff, as follows:
 Exports of wheat and flour during ,b. seven weeks of the new cereal year amount like period one year ago the total exporto5 was 100000 bushels, and tive years ago i, was 34.0O00 900 bushels"
 It will be noticed that our exports of wheat and flour during the past seven weeks have only been a little more than one-third of the aggregate of our export of wheat and flour during the same seven weeks of lS94-being 22.- 900, ,O00 bushels less than in 1893 and 7,000,0 bushels less than for the seven weeks in 1894! Those markets of the world" are steadily decreasing their demand for American products and constantly increasing their shipments of goods into the United States under the free trade of the Gorman-Wil. son tariff. The Bradstreet's wheat and -four statistics are only part of the his- tory of the continuance of hard times unemployed labor and stagnated indus tries in the United States The week. ly reports of the great commercial agencies" ought to also give statistics showing the steady and large increase in the aggregate value of the imports of foreign goods into the United States.
 The large increase in our foreign im- ports and the large decrease of our ex. ports is the freeze" that is "settinp everything back" in the United States. We are buying more abroad than we are selling abroad. That is the req son why our gold is going to Europe, that is the reason why our labor is not fully employed, that is the reason why good times do not return, that is the reason why our business is stagnated, and that is the reason why ''the heavy business which ought to have been done" is being postponed from month to month. If the great commercial agencies" will weekly give the voters of the United States all the details of our foreign commerce they will aid the voters in wholly fighting in 1895 and 1896 the wrongs they voted upon them selves in 1892. The freezing to be feared is the freezing out of Ameri- can labor and American goods in the American markets.-Iowa State Regis ter.
