AS A coNTRIBUToRY CAUSE.
Benefits Reaped by Farmer as Result
of Protective Tariff.

II is well to mention occasionally
as Speaker Cannon did AT Danvillc
that under the Republican protective
policy the United States now produces
a third of the worlds manufactures
and agricultural products. Some
Democrats declare that the tariff
never helps the farmer. They are
rash in making any such assertion
This gives the Republicans a chance
to show that the divcrsiiication of in.
dustries which the tariff has created
has raised up home market for the
farmer which has advanced the value
of everything which he has To sell
while the competition among the fac
tories has chcapened everything that
the farmer has to buy. This is the
principal reason why farming is Far

Democratic days before the civil war

on that account. They realize that
