VIII Farmer. CONTRIBUTED

There are admittedly hundreds Of
thousands Of farmers abundantly able
to contribute" Indeed, the prosperity
Of the American farmer can,hardly be
overstated. But that prosperity will
not move him to contribute to help
elect Bryan or any other Democratic
candidate. For 1t is the result not only
OF Natures bounty, but of twelve years
Of Republican rule, ana Is the most
complete possible REPUTATION of the
Democratic claim that the prosperity
of the manufacturing industries under
the Republican tariff system is gained
at the expense of the agricultural In
dustries. The farmers business. cited
by Bryan and Kern as a reason for his
contributing to their fund, is there
fore the very thing that will most in
cline him to do the exact opposite. He
will contribute not to the Bryan cam
paign fund, but to the Republican cam
paign fund, and he will not have to be
solicited by Mr.. Taft to do so.-Allen-

The Tariff ON Lumber.

If the comparatively small tariff on
lumber were to be removed, the lum-
Der manufacturing located in Burling-
ton would probably be moved to Cana
da, near the seat of production, so as
to save rehandling. Our Canadian
cousins would add the amount of the
removed duty to their charges and we
would continue TO pay the prices we
now pay.
The net result would be our loss of
our lumber industries and most of the
families to whom they give employ
ment. The same rules apply to other
products that could be manufactured
abroad and in a way to various pro-
tected farm products which are cheap
er in Canada than with us. Now
would the people Of Burlington and
our Vermont farmers have the Taft or
Bryan form of tariff revision?-Bur-
