Protection Assured.

Aside from foreign influences, which
are always manifest in New York City,
and the democratic fraudulent control
that is more or less apparent in large
centers, the state of New York has
been as strong for protection as Penn
sylvania or Ohio. The great victory of
1898 in the Empire state was every
where conceded to be the result of
threatened free trade. With the VIC
tory of 1893 the protection party of
New York carried both branches of the
legislature and the constitutional con-
vention, much to the surprise of a
great majority of the people. AS a re-
suit, the state of New York to-day has
model constitution and its laws have
been revised in many ways, especially
as TO election methods, so that each
voter can vote once and have that vote
counted. Hand in hand with these
happy results careful and thorough
reorganization of the party of protec-
ton was secured in the city of New
York with the largest enrolment of
voters ever known to city in this
country. Recognizing that republicans
were a minority in New York City,
combination of all the anti-Tammany
interests was secured here, and ster-
ling republican, COL VIM. l.. Strong,
was elected as mayor of New York on a
non-partisan, business mems platform.
Under these favorable conditions bosses
are thing of the past, and with Gro
kerism and Plattism, which are synony-
nous TO the different parties, rele-
gated to the rear, we may look forward
with great hope for continued victories
for the party that represents industrial
and national prosperity.

Waiting for the Tide to Turn.

Like n frost in a greenhouse. the
free trade party blights everything
ii touches. The admission of wool to
our ports free of duty by the Cleve-
land Wilson hybrid is likely
to prove the death of the sheep indus
try. 1t would already have done SO.
were it not for a hope that the nation
will change it's economic policy in 1896.
The sheep men are treading water, so
to speak, with only their noses out,
and little wave dashed over their
heads would sink them. Many have
already succumbed to the flood, and all
would go were it not for the straws
thrown to them by the bankers. Every
body says: IF l can only tide it over
until another election / may then get
on my feet again" So they plunge still
further into debt with hopeful hearts.
1t was very pretty whistle the pro-
fessor footed up and down the halls of
congress, and it gave forth an allur-
ing sound, but the shivering sheep
herder has concluded that we have
paid too dear for it. A free trade sheep
owner cannot now be found with the
greatest search light ever invented.
They have all turned protectionists.

The Value of Sheep.

The department of agriculture has
furnished the number and value of the
sheep in the United States at the be-
ginning of this year. There are 2, 1884,
953 less sheep in the United States
than there were on January 1, 1894,
but their value has decreased by
S22, 800. S43, which is at the rate of forty
cents per head. Sheep that were worth
81. 9S on January |, 1894, were only worth
81. 5S on January /. 1895. This was the
result of free trade in wool.
But to carry the comparison back "a
little further, so as to make it still
more interesting, we give the number
of sheep in the United States on Janu-
airy l, 1907. with their total value and
their,average va ue per head as follows:
1892 1895.
Number. ......... 44,9Ss,3G5 ~, i,04
Value 49,. ............sii6,lal s66es5. 767
Nalue, eacn...... N>.oo Nloo
This shows that the total loss in the
value of the sheep fiocks of American
farmers was almost $50, 900, 900 within
three years. Since the country was
enjoying undisturbed protection at the
beginning of 1892, when there was no
talk of free trade and no free trade
congress had been elected, the effect of
free trade and its threats among our
sheep has been direct money loss of
$40, 495, SOB divided among the sheep
farmers. According to President Cleve-
land, they are all men with a small
number of sheep, from twenty-five to
fifty belonging to each farmer, who
can i'll afford the loss of exactly one
dollar per head in the value of their
sheep, which is just the difference be-
tween what they were worth under
Mckinley protection and what they
are worth now under free trade, and
which has caused them II total loss OF
$50 600 900 within three wears.
