Free-Trade and Texas Potatoes.

Texas farmers are indignant at the
importation of potatoes from Gre
many with which to feed the Unit
ed States soldiers stationed on the
Mexican bother. Texas is potato
growing State. She has great guam
titles to sell, and her farmers are
netued to find the market taken
away from them merely because pota-
tees can be brought in from Europe
at cent or two below current Tex
as prices. One would think that the
commissariat OF the American army
would prefer to feed American SOL
dieI,s on American farm products, for
it lis certain that American farmers
pay good portion of the cost of
maintaining and feeding American
soldiers. But it seems that our I'M
American Administration orders 9th
erwise. That is the Administration
which the Texas farmers helped to
elect. Perhaps they will some time
learn better than to do that.

Tariff Blight Again.

The branch plant of the Escanaba
Extract Co. at Wells, Delta County,
is the first industry at that place
to be affected by the change in the
Tariff. The company manufactures
tanning extract, and because of the
recent removal of the duty on for
elgn tanning extracts the output OF
the plant has been cut at least 80
per cent, and the number of employ
es cut In the same proportion. The
parent company finds that ii can
import extracts from South America
much cheaper than it can make 1t at
Wells. Superintendent Shaw says
the business will never increase from
what il is now, and the probability is
that it wiz grow much smaller. The
domestic sugar industry isn't the
only industrial busine SIS tlhat is being
bllghted by the new Tariff law
Michigan Manufacturer.
The Hartford republican. (Hartford, Ky.) 18??-1926, 1914-05-08

II should never again be necessa-
ry to urge American farmers the r.
rect and positive advantage of a
Protective Tariff. The Free-Trade
Tariff of 1913 is working out as
an object lesson which they are not
likely to forget. Eight years ago,
when the senseless agitation for
Tariff revision downward began, up
to October 3. 1913, the farmers have
been quite generally in sympathy with
that movement. They could not un-
derstand that the same sentiment
that supported less Protection for
manufacturers would inevitably work
for lower Tariff, or for no Tariff.
on farm products. They forgot that
their best market was furnished them
by industries that were kept prosper
GUS by Protection. They seemed
unable to realize that when a less
than Protective Tariff let in more
manufacturers from abroad the Amer
lean farms. But the farmres have
learned much along these lines in the
past six months. They have seen
their domestic market slip away from
them because of the Free-Trade in
farm products in the Underwood Tar
iff. and they are experiencing a
further loss of market through the
unemployment of hundreds OF thou
sands of American wage-earners. I'm
der the conditions now existing Meth
er Free-Trade Democrats nor Tariff
reform Republicans are likely to run
well in the agricultural sections this
year.-Economist.
