the raising the crop would be the same.)
This writer has been farmer for nearly
40 years, and knows whereof he speaks.
He could sell his produce fifty per cent
less and still make more money-the crop
sales being hundred per cent greater.
We would have large surplus to export,
which would bring money into the coun-
try. thereby benetitting everybody.
l have seen two estimates lately OF
what the tariff costs each family on an
average. One made it slO7; the other
Bill annually. l think both estimates
are too low. by half. II they took the
old estimate made many years ago Of
i've times the consumption of home pro-
duction more than foreign imports that
come in competition with home produc-
tion, their estimates are correct. But Of
late years the proportion is probably ten
times as much, which would make the
average cost per family over 10000. The
best possible Investment the farmer
could make Of this 300 or slOO, call it
which you like, wonld be to put it back
in the soil in the shape of plant food
But il he failed to put it back and could
manage in some way to make it pay ten

years. l have figured it out. II it is
500 each year it would amount to more
than s25.OO00O II 800 per year it is
more than 100000.
So the farmer can see how he is being
robbed every year by the tariff duties,
while the Town and city people are
bearing the burden OF high priced food
without benefit to the farmer, as well
as manufactured products. The tariff is
exhausting the fertility Of the soil.
To think about the tariff robbery
makes an honest mans blood boil with
indignation. But there is still hope.
Light is breaking on the pagan Chinese
doctrine OF obstruction to trade and
national seclusiveness in this country
called protection. The shadow OF that
vicious doctrine is receding before the
light OF the free thought aud the desire
for commercial freedom. The trusts
are somewhat responsible for high prices
on many articles, especially manufac-
tured products.
1t has been truthfully said that tariff
is the mother Of trusts. Abolish tn 10

1t may be asked il we abolish the tar
id in what way are we going to secure
revenue for the government in addition
to the internal revenue taxess There

on the point but they are not under dis
cussion here.
For the past six months the friends Of
old man Protection have been rapidly
forsaking him. He is showing signs
of decrepitude-he goes hobbling about
lopsided. lame in both legs, blind in one
eye, and blear-eyed in the other, his long
avaricious claws cleaving the air and try

THE CAUSES OF THE
HIGH COST OF LIVING
harrisburg Sentinel)

In nearly every paper We pick up we
see something said about the high cost
at living First the increase in the
amount Of money per capita. This pro-
duces no handicap-we pay more but
have more to pay with. In the past
twelve years the increase of gold pro-
duction has been more than any other
fifty years in the history of the world.
III the production of gold continues to in
increase in the future in proportion to in
crease of population prices will never be
as low as in the past. As far as meat prices
arc concerned the distilleries and brew
cries are somewhat responsible. Millions
of bushels of corn, rye and barley are
turned into spirits every year that ought
to be turned into production of meat.
But the main cause is the tariff Para
doxical as it may seem the tariff increas.
es the price of food but does not help
the farmer, but lessons his ability to. pro-
duce. The money he is compelled to pay
as a bonus to manufacturers should go
back into the soil in the shape of fertilizer
or green crops plowed under such as clo-
ver alfalfa, etc. 1t is expensive to fertilize
the soil, TO matter in which way it is
done. The duty on most farm products
in this country does not aft, ct the price
one way or the other, as we are exporters
OF these products, not importers. The
late tariff bill places five cents a bush
el on corn and twenty five cents on
wheat for the purpose of hoodwinking
the farmers If the duty was five dollars
per bushel it would not affect the price
one way or the other unless there should
happen to be a year in which he did not
produce enough to supply the home de-
mand and had to import, but that never
beppens. If it should happen it would
be a wise policy to admit them free of
duty. 1t would be an injustice to tax
everybody who did not raise wheat and
corn in order to put money in the pock-
cts Of the firmer. The farmer is not
paup.r or a thief that the public should
be taxed for his benefit.
1t is the duty on manufactured pro-
ducts OF which the farmer is large con-
sumer that keeps the farmer poor. II
