trade IN the markets of the world
1t looks like a monopoly measure,
framed to benefit the few at the ex-
pense of the many and. remarkable
to relate, the few comprise some of
the ':Robber Barons," those enemies
that the Free-Traders pretended
before election-that they wanted
to destroy and root out hip and thigh
whose very existence was an eve
sore because their success in their
American business was a hindrance
to the of foreigners. But
the Free-Traders are now struggling
to show how the very Tariff law
which they passed has been of bene-
fit to the "Robber Barons," while
they entirely ignore the hundreds of
millions of dollars of destruction
that they have wrought upon the
poor deluded farmers.

Effect OF the Appreciation of Gold.

The accounts against the United
States held in foreign countries from
1859 to 1895 are given by statistic
ians in the grand total sum of S.
9S4,6S3,O49.
This is a startling sum, and espec-
tally is the manner of it's accumula-
ton not only startling, but it ought
at one to awaken tue whole coun-
try to the danger of allowing the
debt, whatever it may be, to go on
accommodating in this way any longer.
For, whatever the actual debt NAV
be, it is certain that it has been made
up almost entirely of interest and
other charges that were not paid
due, but which have been allowed
to go on increasing as if the public
were in no way concerned.
Beaconsfield said a debt at home
is an irritating flea bite, but a debt
abroad is an open bleeding wound.
During the period under consider
alton, or since 1873, gold has appre-
clated in value at least 100 per cent,
as evidenced by a fall of prices of
90 per cent. That is, this debt. as A
bnrde upon our people, or as com
pared with their means of paying it,
has been doubled by the apprecia-
ton of gold alone. And this pro-
cess is still going on and must 90 on
under present conditions, indefinite
~. What a prospect before us! An
increasing debt and IA constant an
probation of gold! How long can
this go on before the United States
will be in the condition of t.pvpt.
This condition of things must be
brought to a close and the sooner
the better.

lowed to issue bonds at will in this
country. No, it cannot be too

New Jersey has gone republican.
The Blue Hens chickens are crow
ing "A different chorus from that
their fathers taught them.
In Maryland, Gormanism, which
vasclllates as much as lIillism, or
Noorheesism is adead letter, and the

Ohio returns a republican COVER
nor by the largest majority known
since Brough opposed Vallandigham
in 1868. The present administers
ton is not popular in the Buckeye
state.
Largely owing to local issues the
great cities have generally gone
democratic. But the republican ma
%jorities rolled up from outlying pre-
cincts have eclipsed the democratic
vote, and buried it from sight.
If Kentucky has not gone repub-
lican she has almost tipped the bal
ance on that side.
The result everywhere shows that
the silver issue was totally eclipsed
by that of tariff, and that the popu-
lists have not made any gains. The
deplorable side of the whole ques-
ton lies in this particular. Bimet.
allism was steamboated in the con.
ventions, and the friends of silve,
had practically nowhere to turn.
Whenever a political party will rise
to proclaim protection alike to every
American interest not excepting

strongly emphasized that the increase
of debt abroad and the constant an
probation of gold must in some way
be stopped. With this vast debt
hanging over us our first oncer is
to maintain prices stop the depre-
citation of the things that must 90 to
pay debts. An Englishman once
said the Americans knew the least
about national financiering of any
people in the world; they create
great debts and then join their cred
itors in a conspiracy to double the
value OF that which they agreed to
pay, or, which is the same thing,
halve the value of the property which
must go to buy the gold.
Even now more bonds are called
for to keep up the gold reserve.
How like child's play, in view of ex-
isting conditions, to attempt to keep
up a gold reserve by multiplying
promises to pay gold! Unless we
pay what we owe with commodities.
gold will be called for, and would
be called for just the same if there
were no greenbacks or coin notes to
present to the treasury; only in that
case those who owe the gold would
have to look elsewhere for it. The
Government is under no obligations
to give gold for greenbacks or coin
notes any than France is under
obligations to give gold for paper or
silver francs, and it is only a ques-
ton of time when a like policy will
be forced upon us, and the sooner it
is admitted the better.
No country in debt as this coun-
try is can permanently maintain the
single gold standard.-A. J. War

OF AGRICULTURAL PRODUCTS.

Totals. S349,S35, S95 1921 $40, 2s9 $500, 1893. O53
This comparison shows that the
exports of all agricultural products
this year to August 81, were almost
s2S, SOC, 800 less than in 1894 and
over 100000 600 less than in 1892.
American farmers have captured 30
per cent less of the markets of the
world this year than they possessed
i'll 1892. Another noticeable fact is
that our farm exports last August
were less than half as much as in last
January. During eight months of
this year we have lost over $3l ,OOO,-
900 of trade in our agricultural pro-
ducts with the markets of the world.
trade that we secured to the extent
of SCI $4,000 in January of this
year, and trade that we secured to
the extent of $50, 100000 in January
OF the great protection year of 1892.
If the ratio of loss this year, over 81
100000 month, should continue
till the end of 1895, then by the end
of December next we will hardly be
exporting any agricultural products
at all.
Now let us follow the free-,rade
idea of comparisons a little further,
letting agricultural products take
the place of manufactures, and we
show the proportion and per centage
OF the former to our total exports of
merchandise from 1888 to 1895:

THE ELECTION,

Returns from the recent election
are what anybody might have pre-
dicted. The telegraph statements
are refreshing and soul inspiring to
read, but they furnish no surprises.
The people are thoroughly awake to
the desperate condition into which
the democrats have run this country
and are anNiously waiting to get a
blow at the base of the evil. Dem
ocracy is on its last legs, and the
chances are strong hat within the
lives of the present generation that
party will not have another inning
at the national game.
The state of New York has gone
heavily republican. But Parkhurst-
ism has suffered a partial defect in
New York city, where Tammany
rises with renewed life to a signal
victory. 1t is not to be said that
morals in the great city are on the
wane, but the result is easily attri.
butable to the ultrazeal Of the de-
Tenders of morality and the rigid
enforcement of the Sunday law.
Thus great reforms are always apt
to swing to the opposite extreme,
and lose their popularity when they
seem to be most popular.

Eight months, january l to August 81, 1895.
In 1892, under undisturbed pro-
lection, the products of the farm
represented 1859 per cent. of our
total exports. For the 1895 fiscal
year they were 8 per cent. less, and
the proportion for eight months of
the 1895 calander year is 1904 per
cent. less. Farmers are making a
most remarkable capture of the
markets of the world. The results
of the Democratic Tariff indicate
that it must have been designed for
the express purpose of injuring the
farmer and of benefting some of the
manufacturers by increasing their

Our Exports of Agricultural Products.

While the free trade papers have
been drawing particular attention to
an increase in the foreign trade of 25
different industries, saying nothing
about a decrease in the exports of Al
other manufacturing industries, they
have been equally reticent upon the
subject of our exports of %agrlcultur-
al products. AS these constitute
more then half of our total exports.
they are far too important to be over
looked. In fact the true workings
of any tariff law cannot be fairly ex-
amined if such omission be allowed.
Adopting the same system of COM
parison as the free traders instituted
in regard to the exports of % iedus-
tries, we give the comparative ex-
ports of agricultural products for
each month Of the present calendar
year and the corresponding months
of 1894. We supplement this with
the values Of agricultural exports
during the year 1892, the year when
our best productive tariff was in un-
disturbed operation:

genial climes, where balmy Zephyr

hoary locks. Where cares shall be
dlssipated and wants satisfied and
where the soul in encountered quiet
ude shall rest. But it remains a
hlndcring question as to how we can
