Cheapening Farm Products.

Every condition in American life is
affected by the question Of a protective
tariff, and every man under the flag re-
ceives in a greater or lesser degree its
benefits. 1t is no exaggeration to say
that under the provisions of the bill
(Wilson) under discussion the foreign
manufacturer and foreign laborer would
receive these benefits, and the American
farmer at the same time would be de-
prived of his home markets, while the
factory operatives, deprived of their
means of livelihood, would be forced to
the farm, thus increasing the supply OF
agricultural products and further low
ering the prices of the same. Hon. ].
w. Babcock. NJ. O.. Of Wisconsin.

Tariff Talk That Hurts.

A higher duty imposed upon any ar
ticle that we grow or manufacture can
not injure that business. 1t is the low
tariff that hurts; that causes larger i'm
ports of goods made by cheap labor
that interferes with the earnings of our
own people, creates undue competition
and reduces values to a point that is
improbable to the producer. There was
no check TO business in 1890, when the
Mckinley tariff was under discussion,
either before or after its enactment. A
tariff that will afford greater protection
to American interests is always better
for the country, 1t means greater pros
perity. 1t is the low tariff and low tar
if discussion that injure our trade, be-
cause low tariff benefits other countries.

Democratic Papers Want Cheap Hops For
British Brewers.

AEitihn breWeEh.
The New York Times every now and
again has dig at the unfortunate hor
growers. lis latest was as follows:
"If the hop growers of the United
States can sell II 900, 600 pounds in Eu-
rope. meeting foreign hop growers there
ON even terms without any protection
whatever. it is nonsense to pretend that
they cannot more easily undersell these
foreign hop growers hero at home either
with or without the tariff protection OF
the present law.
Nobody ever pretended that the Amer
lean hop growers cannot more easily
undersell these foreign hop growers here
at home" OF course they can. They
can give away their hops if they want
TO. and thus control the home market.
That would suit the British brewers
syndicates which control most of our
breweries, and as their dividends have
been pretty low lately and not up to
prospectus profits the New York Times
naturally wants to help its English
friends.
If our hop growers did "undersell
these foreign hop growers here at
home" would it pay them to do so?
That is the American point of view. We
don't want to see American hop grow
ers raising their crop just for the fun of
the thing and for the pleasure Of mort
gaging their farms till they are seized
by the sheriff for the sake Of benefiting
British brewing syndicates. But the
New York Times does want this The
Democratic hard times have cut down
the consumption of beer by 100, 900 bar
rels during the first quarter of the pres
ent fiscal year, and business is undoubt-
eddy dull among the British brewers
But il has been worse with the hop
growers, who have been obliged TO sell
their hops anywhere from TO s cents a
pound without making a cent Of profit.
Root mp the American hopyards is the
New York Times idea, so that more
land may be devoted TO other crops of
which we have surplus and which are
not paying farmers money enough for
taxes. The condition of the hop market
was we'll illustrated by The Journal of
Commerce and Commercial Bulletin ON
the same day that the New York Times
gave its kick at American hop farmers
as follows:
'Prices (of hops) are still depressed,
and the prospects are unsatisfactory.
This meant unsatisfactory to the
farmers who held hops. Having got
them down, the New York Times gave
them another kick, with a sort of
"blarst you expression, thinking how
satisfactory" the hop market news of
the day would be to the British brewing
syndicates.
We like TO read the thigh tariff alb
surdity" of the New York Times be-
rot.

DECEMBER IMPORTS

Our December trade in the four Nc
Kinley tariff years averaged imports of

years they averaged $62. III, 1874, or
&74S, OBJ year more money sent out OF
the country each tariff reform" De-
cember than in the protection period.
Less work for American labor and a
less CHEEKY Christmas was "sad news"
to the wage earners But the cheerful
idiot" gloats over it, We also got less
free goods and more dutiable goods each
gloomy German December than in the
Mckinley happy Christmases. But no
Democratic paper THAT we have seen
gives any credit to the" Mckinley law.
Now turn 10 the export table. In the
four Mckinley years the average Decem-
Der exports of American products reach
ed sos, 450,512. The two gloomy Cor
man Decembers averaged exports of on
~ $S7, $50, 900, or over $11 200, 900 less
of American products sold in the mar
kets of the world, and that much less
money for us to receive and remind us
of the CHEEKY Mckinley Christmases.

dull in 1894 and 1895. The storekeep-
