wherein they were extinguished a
few years ago and that new manu-
factories have been started. Let us
ask Nh. johnson if he would not
consider it a benefit to his town of
Da' export if a new enterprise could
be established there hat would en-
ploy a thousand men, thus adding
from 5000 to 5000 people to the
population of the village? Would
not such n accession of population
benefit every farmer within the radi-
us of the villages activities? So of
the country at large. Every additi-
on to It's industries helps everybody
in it-farmers and all.
Mr.. Johnson says he has been a
Republican, but if we cannot point
out how the tariff benefits him as a
farmer, he will have to change.
Would he like to GO back to the
conditions that existed from 1898,
following the election of Grover
Cleveland and a free trade congress
in 1892? If he would he is an ex-
ception, for all who remember that
dreadful time of depression will be-
apt to fight shy of again voting to
reverse the American protective
policy.
He also complains that while we
are getting the same price for our
wheat as under the free trade policy
we have to pay from 25 to 200 per
cent more for everything we bny.
This statement is refuted by a
North Dakota farmer quoted in the
Grand Forks Herald of a recent date
who says:
Every little while | see some state
ment to the effect that, while the
prices of almost all kinds of goods
are advancing, the farmer receives
no more for his product than he e,er
did. Such statements make me
weary. No n but a laundering
ignoramus or a willful prevaricator
would make them, and no man with
his eyes half open could be misled
by them.
Wheat, our staple, maintains a
price better than the average for
Sc eral years leaving out of account
the boom during the Letter corner.
Flax is bringing our farmers
more money than ever before in the
history OF the crop, and notwitll-

How il Helps the Farmers.

A correspond mt A. j. Johnson,
writing 10 the Tribune from Daven-
port, North Dakota az ks: "Will you
kindly tell me what benefit the
wheat raising farmer of North Da-
kota has from the Republican party
tariff system? As the price OF wheat
is regulated only by supply and de-
mand, why wouldn't we get the
same price for wheat under the free
trade system as we do now?
Mr.. Johnson's second query
answers his first. As the price of
wheat is regulated by the supply
and demand, anything that increases
the demand W II help the price.
Let us ask him how it would be If
there were no manufacturing institu-
tions in this country and the vast
army of men now employed in in
dustrial pursuits wers engaged in
farming-or, supposing they were
not in the country and our poPula
ton was less to the. extent of their
number while the amount of wheat
raised remained the same? If the
consumption of wheat was less in
this country, or if more wheat was
raised, we should have a larger
amount for export than we have
now. Would not the excess dump.
ed upon foreign markets. have a ten
dency to lower the price still further?
We now export a comparatively
small percentage of the wheat raised
in this country-some 2UO,OO0,OO
bushels out OF a crop averaging
about GOO, 100000. Yet this export
surplus is what fixes the price of the
whole crop. The price is virtually
fixed in Liverpool, our iggest mar.
Reporter and farmer. [volume] (Webster, Day County, Dakota [S.D.]) 188?-1946, 1899-12-07

ket. If the home consumption of
say 100000. 900 bushels in this
country wece reduced to say 200.
600, 900, and we should have 400,
100000 bushels for export instead
of zoe, 000,0 900 bushels, our foreign
customers would Immediately lower
their bids.
On the other hand, if we could
increase the home consumption so
that the whole COO, 0OO,O bushels
could be consumed in This country.
Liverpool could no longer fix prices
for US, and the price would be high
er at least to the extent of the ocean
freights and handling charges.
Therefore we may say broadly
that anything which tends to develop
the industries of this country and in
crease the number of mouths to feed
of those not engaged in agricultural
pursuits must necessarily help the
farmer by enlarging his home mar
ket. That the Republican tariff
policy does this can be demonstrated
by facts and figures. The Tribune
published yesterday a summary
showing that there has been a gain
of nearly 40 per cent in the amount
of American labor employed since
the Dingley tariff vas substituted
for the Wilson, German tariff, and an
increase at the same time 10 wages.
This makes more mouths to feed AMI
increase the purchasing power of the
workers. IL is already estimated by
experts that the consumption of
wheat per capita IN this ~country will
increase a considerable fraction per
capita owing to the fact that the
masses of the people are so much
better off than they were few years
ago.
Every man who has travelled
