A MOnStrOuS SwindIe.

The following letter from Mr.. A u.
M. Farquhar, the head Of the great
Pennsylvania agricultural works
written to the Farmers Call, a
farmers paperpublished at Quincy,
Ill, shows what an honest manu-
facturer thinks of the tariff and its
relation to the farmer:
"The fact is that our protective
laws are monstrous swindle upon
the agricultural community. AS
a manufacturer ! was inclined to
say nothing on the subject for the
reason that it was natural to sup
pose if anybody was be nefitted, it
was the manufacturing class to
which ! belong. But as have cX-
planned, the farmer is being de-
Stroyed. We are killing the
goose that lays the golden egg.
"And | honestly believe now thu
1t is to the interest of the manu-
facturers themselves TO eliminate
the protective feature from orr tar
iif laws.
Certainly, as our manufactured
goods are sold much lower abroad,
we could only need protection to
get better prices from our custom
ers at home. We do manufacture
and sell in Canada, South America
and Europe many agricultural
machines and implements, and we
conld have free raw material and
the commercial advantages which
free trade would give us. Ameri-
ca would become the great manu-
featuring emporium of the world
and the farmer, of course, would
share the prosperity, since he
would have less to pay for every
thing and get better prices for
what he sold. Go on with your
good work. When the farmer be-
gins to think and rise up against
this swindle it is doomed"
