Mr.. Lubin recently presented me-
mortal to Congress In which he not
only sets out his own views at length,
but, also, gives statements Of farmers
and officers Of farmers associations,
Following is q statement by Leonard
Rhone, Master of the Pennsylvania
State Grange, made before committee
Of the House of Representatives, Jan.
usry 5, 1897. Mr.. RhOne said:
"Mr. Chairman and gentlemen Of
the committee, appear before you by
direction of the State Grange Of Penn
sylvsnia, an association representing
the organized farmers of the State, for
the purpose Of presenting to you the
feelings Of the farmers Of our State
upon the protective policy Of our gov.
eminent. Pennsylvania has always
been noted for It's advocacy of the pro-
tective policy of government and
helped to develop the largest prosperity
TO our industries, and the State Grange
simply falls In the line Of the senti-
ment Of It's people. When they view
the protection policy pursued by our
country OF present they find a grave
discrimination, which they think Con.
gress should at least In measure rem
edy. When we inquire into the
agricultural sch edules we find that the
manufacturer Of leather Is protected
by an import duty and the msnufac.
tuTer Of leather goods by another Inn
port duty, while raw hides are sold in
competition with the American farmer
without any such protection disCrimi-
mating In his interest. l do not charge
the Democratic party for this sin which
was visited upon the American farmer,
because believe that it was a Repub-
liCan Congress that placed raw hides
on the free list.
"When we were before this commit
tee under the preparation of what is
known az the Mckinley bill we advo.
Gated q duty Of 25 per cent, on raw
hides, 80 that the American farmer
might receive the same measure of pro.
lection in this particular that ia sC-
corded to the American manufacturer,
but for some reason that schedule was
stricken out. We ind, also, under the
administration Of General Grant, that
Che Republican Congress reduced the
duty on wool, and ss a consequence
the American farmer was obliged to
take lower price for his prod
uCts In the American markets, being
compelled to sell in competition
with the cheap labor and land coun.
tries of the world; and we find later
chat It was Democratic Congress that
placed wool entirely on The free list,
compelling the American farmer to
sell his products in competition with
the same cheap land and labor of the
world, while the American manufac.
turer Of wool has been protected. Now
we follow the agricultural schedule
throughout, and we dnd the same dis.
elimination between the American
1arrnar and the AmarinAn mnnnRnn.
