OUR FOREIGN TRADE.
II Expands Under Republican and Col
1apses Under Democratic Policies.

One OF the great arguments OF the
free traders has been that with free
trade We would have access TO the mar
kess OF the world" Well the only time
the free traders have had control OF
the government in recent years was in
the second Cleveland administration.
They did not put actual free trade into
operation. but they came close enough
70 il 10 put most OF the factories of
this country out Of operation We did
not get the markets o, the world. They
may have been open 10 US, but our man
ufaeturers were going out OF business so
fast. under the ruinous tariff schedules
the Democrats had put into effect, that
they could not seek the markets OF the
world. Their own home market. the best
one to them. was invaded By cheap for
sign goods, however.
Then the protective tariff system was
reinstated by the people Of this country.
and Immediately the factories began TO
turn their wheels again. Within ten
years we have demonstrated that the
way TO get the markets OF the world
IS 70 protect our own market against
invasion. build up our industries. and
then branch out for foreign trade
We have not had anything like free
trade within those ten years. and yet we
are selling millions Of dollars worth of
goods every year in the markets OF the
world"
In Congress. last winter Congressman
Hill. Of Connecticut. told Of a recent
visit he had made abroad. He said:
4 stood on the deck OF a Japanese liner
in the harbor OF yladivostok. Russian
Siberia. In the hold OF that ship was
over 700 tons of American agricultural
implements that had come across the
Pacific ocean from America for the use
OF the peasants OF Siberia, and shipped
there under the Dingley tariff bill That
night at the hotel ! met the represent
atiye Of a locomotive works in Phila-
delphia who told me he had just put in
lJO locomotives. for use in the Siberian
railway. shipped there under the Ding
ley tariff law.
Next day l rode 500 miles up the
banks of the Amur river over American
steel rails shipped there under the
Dingley tariff law. Then got aboard

IT is prophesied that the coming ses-
sion of the North Dakota legislature
will prove to be a very interesting one.
Besides the election of United
States senator to succeed P. j. Nc
Cumber, an effort will be made to pass
a primary election law through, which
means it is expected to avoid the prac-
tice of holding conventions, the nomina-
tions being made by a direct vote of
the people. 1t is also intimated that
considerable railroad legislation will be
attempted; prominent among which will
be q bill taxing all railroads doing bust
ness in the state, on the gross earnings
system. A bill compelling railroads to
furnish first class seats to passengers
holding first class tickets is likely to be
introduced and if it is there will be
music in the air. The telegraph lines
will also receive marked attention and
there does not seem to be any good
reason why they should not, for most Of
their charges at non-competing points
are outrageously high. In the antici-
pated stampede the telegraph lines and
express compaaies may be shown that
their rates arc about so per cent higher
than is Just, considering the amount Of
business they do.
