TAFT ARGUES FOR
THE HIGH TARIFF.

WITH THOSE OF DEMO-
CRATIC TIMES.

Is at o'clock Saturday morning
Id ending at Topeka with two meet
1gs Saturday night, William H. Taft
cached climax in crowds and en-
tnuslasm OF the campaign trip he be-
gan IL daye ago in Cincinnati In
the IA speeches delivered during the
day and evening by Taft, he not only
talked IN detail of the tariff and
trusts and labor, but furnished Kan
sas farmers an itemized account of
the increased profits they made in the
last year because of the operation of
the principle Of protection, as he put
1t, over what they made under the
alleged democratic enforcement of
free trade.
At Dodge City there had been placed
On a grain elevator a large sign
which read:
Wheat, 1908, go cents-republican
rule; wheat, 1896, SIS cents, democrat.
ic rule"
Taking notice of the sign, Taft
said to his audience:
81 have statistics a little more
complete than that. The average
price of corn in Kansas in '96, after
four years of democratic rule, was
Is cents bushel. Now it is more
than A cents a bushel. This repub.
lican price of A cents for corn in
Kansas gave to the farmers of Kan
sas for their corn crop of 1907 more
than S40,000,000 in excess of what
they would have received if they had
sold at the democratic price of IS
cents
The candidate said the average
price of wheat during the four demo
cratic years was 40 cents; now it is
over 80. If sold at democratic prices
| the present Kansas crop would have
brought $21,OOO,OOO less than today.
Republican prices, he said, gave to
! the farmers of Kansas for the crop OF
oats, barley, potatoes and hay in 1907
over $18,00O,0OO in excess Of what
/ sold those crops at the democratic
prices. Horses have increased from
$16,OO0,OOO in 1894 to $96,OOO,OOO to-
day; mules are worth $13,000,0OC
now, or five times more than in 1896;
cattle are now worth $26,OOO,O00, twice
what they were in the democratic
days. Hogs are now Sc while in those
days they were IS.
Taft then entered upon discussion
of the tariff, insisting that it has beer
of great benefit to the farmer, work
ingman and manufacturer alike. He
again pledged himself, if elected, tc
use all the legitimate influence OF the
president for revision wherever
deemed necessary and proper.
