on hay $500 per ton, yet you
produce more of either one of
these products than any other
country in the world, and
under no circumstances would
they be imported in any COM
siderable amount.
While Congress has imposed
duties upon the which you
excel the world in producing
aud which they knew could be
of no value to you, they have
been very careful to impose a
duty of IL cents per one hun
dred pounds upon salt in bags,
sacks, barrels or other pack.
ages. 1t wonld be of great
value to you who are fruit and
vegetable growess if your sur.
plus could be canned cheaply.
With cheap sugar these would
be a source of profit. Cheap
tin and cheap glass are also
essential to profitable canning.
But Congress- has imposed
duties on sugar of Is to 100 per
cent. on tin plate 80 per cent,
and on glass 60 per cent.
Let US examine another
feature of the injury of the
tariff to you. The protective
tariff on imports tends to des
troy foreign markets for your
surplus, and this to reduce the
price at home. A sale by you
of your surplus produce to
people in any other country,
when reduced to the last an
alysis, is but an exchange of
products between you and the
foreign exporters. This is not
80 apparent. because you sell
your grain directly to the ex
porters. Money is but the
medium of bringing about an
exchange between your wheat
and the manufactured goods of
the foreigner. If the goods for
which you have exchanged
yours can enter our country
only by payment of high
duties, we have an obstruction
to trade which will reduce the
foreign demand for your pro
ducte and SO lower its market
va la here. President Nc
Kinley's last words at Buffalo
confirm this contention. You
will remember he said: "a
system which provides a
mutual exchsnge of commodi.
ties is manifestly essential to
the continued and healthful
growth of our export trade.
We must not repose in fancied
security that we can forever
sell everything and buy little
or nothing. If such a thing
were possible it would not be
best for those with whom we
DEAL" Shut out a foreign
staple product of the farm.
There is abundant evidence in
our history to show this. The
period between 1916 and 1866
in thie country was one of
comparatively law duties, An
average tariff duty on all duti.
able imports of "a per cent pre-.
vailed from 1916 to 1857, and of
about 10 per cent from 1857 to
1861. Under these fourteen
years of low tariffs our imports
of merchandise increased
from about $l17,9l4,4OO in 1916
to s35a,616,0oO in 1860, most of
the increase being in European
products. This was an in
crease at the rate cf 200 per
cent i'll fourteen years. Now
notice that during the same
period our exports increased
from $l09,53s,OOO in 1916 To
1888 10000 in 1860, an increase
of 2O4 per cent, the increase of
exports keeping a little more
than even pace with the in.

THAT LOCALIZED ROBBERY.
The Tariff and the Trusts Steals Millions OF
Dollars from the Dakota Farmer

| lou cannot memtlOu an
article in your house or for
your clothing, or a thing used
upon your farm which is not
made today with tenth part
of the labor cost of forty years
ago, yet the trusts, with the
aid of the traiff, are charging
YOU at least 50 per cent more
for these articles than they
should. The theory of the
early protectionist in this coun.
try was that the protection
against imports, while it
might temporarily raise the
price of the goods protected,
in the long run, by increasing
home competition, would tend
to lower prices. The trusts,
however, sprang up to destroy
the home competition and
, holds up the price of neces-
saries of life to the full extent
that the duty permits, None
of your farmers in this country
ever get penny's value out of
the protective tariff, and be-
sides wronging you as con-
sumers, it tends to destroy
foreign markets for your pro.
duce.
First. Protective duties up
on your products cannot bring
benefit to you because about
one third of your product must
be exporte d. A protective
duty, as a rule, is OF no value
to an exporting industry; 80.
when our manufacting inter
ests became able to export
they formed trusts and con.
trolled the competition go as to
be able to sell goods at home
at prices increased by the
!, amount of the duty.
Now. although duties upon
foreign grain imported into
this country can be no value
to you because we are export
ers, yet Congress has imposed
heavy duties upon wheat, and
all the other products of
agriculture. Although 20 u
produce the greatest amount
OF wheat of any other country
in the world, and in 1902 ex-
ported sl77.Oo0,oOo worth of
wheat aud -four, they have
given you a duty upon import
ed wheat of % cents per bushel
aud the Congressman who i'm
posed that duty knew that you
would never realize a single
penny from it. 1t is simply
imposed to allow camaign ora.
tors to declare before you that
your products are high pro-
tected. No one imports. or
wants to import, wheat into
our country uuless it be the
farmers of Manitoba and the
western provinces of the Do
minion of Canada, who would
like to send their wheat to the
great Touring mills of Minnea
polls to be ground. They give
you a duty of 10 cents per
bushel on corn, and you raise
more corn than any other two
countries in the world. You
exported in 1900 over $s5,OOO,-
600 worth of corn, and such a
thing as the importation of
corn in any quantity into this
country has never been known.
We are the greater exporters
of pork in the world,
and the portati O n
of dead hogs into this country
even if there were no duty on
pork, would be about as rare
as white blackbirds, yet your
benevolent Congressman have
carefully protected you againt
the importation of pork by a
duty of 5 cents a pound on
bacon and hams. Once eggs

Prof. Hamilton made two splendid flights in the alrship at the Rock yes terday, The first took place shortly after o'clock and the second about 9;3o. Both were considered to be the most successful yet and the daring aeronaut received an ovation that might well be described as almost equallng that accorded the mention of Roosevelt's name in the republican convention In Chicago yesterday.
 The greatest of the outbursts was during the night flight when Hamilton sailed twice around the brilliantly lighted White City tower, Here 5000 people had assembled to witness the wrestling match with the wild bull and everything was forgotten for the moment In the unprecedented spec tacle above of drigible balloon sail ing around an electric tower.
 Interest Is increasing every day ir the flights and thousands are visiting the airship during the hours of exhi. bition.
