GOOD SCORES TARIFF BILL.
Says Iowa Farmer 10 Convinced o
Evils Of Law,

Evils Of Law.
Washington. IAN. 13.-"The Iowa
farmer does not need any instruction
as to the workings Of the tariff BILL"
said Representative Good, who re-
turned from Cedar Rapids Saturday.
and who talked freely concerning the
business and political situations. He
has only to stndy the market reports
to ind out howsit operates"
Z talksdaswitA maAy farmers," said
adr. Good. "and found they were sore
over the oreratfcn Of, the tariff bill.
Iowa farmers are prntertson:5ts, but !
am inclined to think they would not
have objected seriously to having the
prices Of their own products reduced
II the prices Of what they have to buy
also had gone down. But az 1t Is they
md themselves stripped Of protection
for their products. They find prices
OF cattle and stock have fallen off
largely. They find corn has slumped
heavily in price Of late and at the Same
time read that there have been ex-
tensive imports Of Argentine corn.
1T is not necessary to have dia-
gram to show what the effect is going
to be on the man who Is farming 5000
land II he has to raise corn in competi-
ton with the cheap labor and cheap
land Of the Argentine. and when, at the
same time, 1t appears tho farmer -
paying Just as much or more than ever
for the things he buys, 1t Is not to be
expected that he will be particularly
pleased.
mot even the consumer In the cities
and towns is being benefited by the
very interests whose profits we have
SO long sought to check.
I am inclined to believe the people
in the cities are more inclined than the
farmers to wait and see how the Dill
works out but even among the con-
sumers in the cities there is complaint.
for they have got no relief"
Mr., Good discussed the situation
which he described in its bearings on
the Second district congressional elec-
ton. He declared that II the republi-
cans put up a strong candidate they
could sweep the district The only
thing that might stand in the way. he
said. was the third ticket Of the pro-
gressives. and he questioned whether 1t
would obtain much strength.
Mr.. Good does not share the view Of
some republicans here. who fear the
ds1e chosen for the special election,
Feb. 10. is just the wrong time OF year
to get out the votes Of the farmer. 1t
lis his opinion the farmers are going to
vote

The presidents face was a picture Of
