every Indication that the importaons would increase
rather than diminish At the rate the total for The
month would De around 100000 bushels. nearly
twice much had been imported in any previous

It is to be hoped that the farmers OF Delaware win
more than passing thought to the subject for the con-

cents per bushe wheat and i5 cents per barrel flour
was charged importatons coming from any country

ported.
This arrangement contained two vicious evils. One
the adoption OF the policy OF free trade and the othe
the adoption Of plan which made possible for the
rvd country to determine WI ether the United States
should impose a duty. So long as Canada wanted to ship
wheat and -four into the United States she could do so
without paying a duty. n, by chance circumstances

ready market for her wheat in Europe. Some small ship

cia purpose for reshlpment to Europe But the COM
petition with the American farmer not felt. The
foreign market being almost unlimited the American
farmer did not then need protective tarin.
But the time when wheat producers in the United

Canada had complete control the question whether
