come the sole resource of the widow and
orphans. Surely, a fund such as this
ought to be sacred against robbery
through depreciation of the value of the
money in which it is paid. Free silver,
on the basis of the present value of the
two metals, would rob every widow of
half the money value coming to her
from the insurance carried by her hus-
band.
And this would be n stnpendous rob-
berry indeed. The five Massachusetts
life insurance companies of which sta
tistics are given in the commissioners
report, paid 81, Z 1888 in death claims
last year. The grand total reported of
all life insurance companies doing bust
ness in this state was SGG, IS All. Can
the women, for whose benefit most of
this insurance money was paid, regard
with equani1nity the loss of $$333, 100000
in one year? There are millions Of wom-
en- dependent upon the payment of such
policies. The Massachusetts companies
had 122,GN policies in force last year,
calling for $500. S774, 6222 in case of death.
Tho grand total, including all companies,
was 1,743,35O policies. amounting to the
enormous sum of 81, 795. OS:3}. S64. Right
here in Massachusetts there is $685., 9lO,-
Ago at stake in this way.
In addition to all these there are the
assessment life insurance companies,
with 1920 certificates in force, repre-
scnting $93,522,457; the fraternal bcne-
ficiary associations. with a membership
Of S54,G50, which paid out $40, ,G56
for 10,O69 death claims last year; the
casualty companies, which paid out
$3OO.3O1. All these, which are primari-
~ for the relief of widows and orphans,
would have to pay in deprecated money
under free silver.
But the money in which the premiums
OH these policies have been paid is
money as good us gold, worth 100 cents
on the dollar. In Massachusetts alone

In 1892 the policy of protection was re.
sersed and thus the laborers from the
shops and factories were forced from
sheer necessity to go out upon the lands
srs: It has been estimated that over n
million laborers have since the election of
1892 when compelled to seek employ
aent in farming in order to obtain sub
istence for themselves and families;
many of these have converted parcels
nto corn and potato patches, thereby

9 easy to understand when the full effect
II this shifting of labor from the mechan-
cal industries to the farm is considered,
WA0S SuC c1cCl LluSl Ut upon pIlCcS
Of farm products.
In view of these facts. all of which can
be verified in the past history of our
country, it is plain that our farmers are
directly interested in the employment of
labor and that their prosperity depends
largely upon whether that labor is en-
ployed Us competitors in the production
of farm products, or as sun en-.
ployed in the mechanical industries Of
the country. We are certainly learning
from a severe practical experience the
truth and value of the economic principle
already referred to that 'the greatest
creator of wealth is the greatest possible
that this division of labor may be
brought about by a wise policy of protcc.
ton.
The effect of production upon the
products of the farm can be summed up
In a few words. First, will it increase
Or diminish the number engaged in pro.
ducing the products of the farm? Sec.
her of of farm products!
When YOU have answered these two
plain propositions you will be master of
the entire argument of protection and
free trade. so far as the farmer is con.
cerned. You need be concerned in no
way about the free coinage of silver
as this cannot in any way possible IN
crease or diminish the consumption of
your products. Its adoption. however,
would have the effect. as Mr.. Bryan
admits, of producing a panic and con
tinued depression in our mechanical in
dustries, forcing more labor to the farm
and thereby add to the number already
producing farm products.
The employment of labor in IL me-
chanical industries and not the free
coinage of silver is the thing that inter.
ests the farmer and is to secure for him
the prosperity he so much desires.-H.

CAMPAIGN NOTES.

There is not so much fanaticism and
f%Oolishness in the country as was sup.
posed when Bryan captured the Chicago
convention with his "crOwn of thorns"
and "cross of gold". %harangue. The
observation-disclosures Of the masses is still
to be counted upon ms a safeguard against
Socialism and anarchy.
Powdcrly hits the nail squarely on the
head when he tells the w%orkingman that
his motto with regard to money should
he. "The best is none too good for
me-"
A man is said to have injured his ankle
in n silver debate. That's what comes
of letting people with comparatively lit
tie strength jugglc with these heavy ar
guments.
Mr.. Powdcrly, who says the Bryan
ffrcc-silvcr panic would be worse for ln:
Dor than all the strikes ever known, will
come in for the abuse of the Dcbsitcs,
who want strikes galore. free silver,
free rum and a general breakup.
A government. like an individual. must
have n reputation for honesty and have
good backing if it does business with
the great world outside of its own lin
its.
Mark Hanna is firmly of the belief
that the only effective confidence restOra-
tive is put up at Canton.
Bryan says that the present dollar has
too great purchasing power" Ask some
one who sweats through eight hours to
earn one whether this is true.
Spain wants more money. She should
send for Bryan.
An honest dollar is the noblest work Of
politics.
Even the Democrats of Michigan,
Wisconsin and Ohio are locking to the
standard of Mckinley. The same thing
afflicts Mr.. Bryan. it seems. that led the
parrot of story into serious trouble. He
talks too much.
Neither free silver nor any other cheap
money device can bring prosperity to q
nation burdened with a tariff which OPP
crates adversely to the interests Of it,
own people.
Bryan appears to be one of those men
who think they know it all. and an in.
telligent and observing public does not
need to be informed what usually hap
pens to them.
To put money into circulation is the
need of the time. and that can he lone
only by n protective tariff that will re-
vive industry.
