WILSON ON RECIPROCITY
HE DESCRIBES THE TRUE PURPOSE
OF THE GREAT DOCTRINE.
How 1t May BE Applied to Become n
demonstrating of the Age of
Cheap Grain Foods.

DYSART, Ia, Nov 2.-The principal
speaker at the Republican meeting here
to-day was Secretary of Agriculture Will
son, who said in part:
1.-The soul of reciprocity is arranging for
buying from certain countries things that
we do not produce at home, and selling to
them what they require and cannot pro-
duce. This is a favorable arrangement TO
both sides. No party authority has ever
suggested reciprocity at the expense of any
of our home industries. That would be TO
secure trade abroad at the expense of de-
velopment at home. We may have inter-
ests that would like to thrive upon the de-
cay of others. but they have no warrant
for their tendencies from the opponents of
the Republican party.
Reciprocity may become the auxiliary
of protection by opening markets for our
surplus products of field and factory in
countries where we buy what we don't pro-
duce. or where we buy much more than
sell. il may become the assassin of our
protective policy by admitting To our mar
kets what we do produce that needs pro-
lection, for the purpose of getting new
markets for some of our products that no
longer require any favors.
THE American manufacturer has been
defended by protection His most reliable
friend has been the American farmer, who
has had little direct benefit from customs
dues. while he has great benefit from the
home market at the factory. Our manu-
facturers are at an advantage compared
with foreign manufacturers because of the
abundance and cheapness OF food products
here Our grain products are so cheap
comparatively. that they go everywhere.
Conditions in our country are changing
Our population is rapidly increasing while
new lands on which TO grow grain are not
increasing. IL il within our power TO in
crease the grain yields of our acres by
hybridZing. selection and better farming
but the age OF very cheap grains is passing
not TO return while present conditions are
maintained
"Our meats. poultry and dairy products
are being gradually excluded from the
countries of continental Europe but our
home market needs more as population in
creases and our meat supply is not keeping
pace with the population
There is "a struggle among nations at the
present time FOR the markets OF the world
arc abundance OF cheap food Is a prime
necessary i'm this race. The nation that
excludes cheap foodstuffs will fall behind in
the contest The heavy immigration TO our
shores is "A continual reminder that people
come for better wages. food. clothing. edu-
cation and general elevation in the scale OF
life
THE growth OF our country in so many
directions 1ustities the conclusion that we
are developing toward "a condition Of COM
pleteness as worlds national unit"
