farmers to whom he appeals. After years
Of depression agriculture has become won
derfully prosperous. That prosperity dated
from the astonishing development of the
manufacturing industries of the country
since the passage Of the Dingley tariff.
Agriculture. as all intelligent farmers
know, is prosperous because the means of
consumers in factories and in all the in
dustries depending upon them have been
increased by millions. and all have steady
employment with increased wages. The
mass Of the people in this country have
much more money to expend for the prod
ucts of the farm than they had in 1895 and
1896. 1t is this fact that has made the
farmer prosperous. a large majority of
them understand it. They also recall the
experience of 1S94-95-96 and 97-that a half
and half tariff contracted the employment
OF the factories one-third. All of the elo-
quence OF Mr.. Villas will not blot the mem
DRY Of that experience from their minds.
The farmers who are Republicans know
that with free trade the wages of the
American factory and mill worker and
those dependent upon them must be re-
duced to the level of those of Great Britain,
which would mean third less purchasing
power on the part of the industrial classes.
That. in turn, would mean a much less sum
to expend in food products and a contrac-
ton of the farmers market at home. There
is reason to believe that Western people be-
lieve that the time has come for modifica-
tons of the Dingley tariff so that it's pro-
visions may not be misused but those of
them who are Republicans would have
modification made by the friends Of pro-
lection rather than have the system swept
out OF existence by its enemies.
The Journal is glad to see the letter of
Colonel Villas because 1t is an honest and
courageous sta tement OF the ground of
those who claim to be hostile to the system
of protection. Does Colonel Vilas's partic-
ipation in the anti-Bryan movement of 1896
preclude his being the Democratic candi-
date of 1904 on free-trade platform? In
every respect he is better man than
