We start the mew year with a division unlike any of those celebrated in Americian politics, Heretofore it has been the president against congress, as in the cases of Jack. som, Tyler, Johnson and Hayes, or the senate against the house with the presi. dent neutral, but now we have three rad. jenfly distinct policies advocated by the thee grand divisions of legislative pow. ex, and in addition to this no less than ime very distinct factions in the house, Ce the tariff, it is true each party is a wmit, but on finance old members concede that they have never seen worse confus. joss. as into Mitlesburg { elim | aronsburg | n rndorf, Woodward | wraburg "truths Mr ) a tari makes | candidate | Democrats | A PERNICIOUS SHAM.

Let the farmer bring common sense and the light of experience to bear on these three propositions, and he will soon discover that protection is a perni- cious sham, of which, though it robs all honest workers, he is the greatest vic tim, because it compels him to not only buy dear, but to sell cheap. Others ma in a measure overcome its evil effects b depriving themselves of some of their accustomed comforts, but to the farmer, whose production is enormously out of proportion to the home demand, any lengthened period of it would mean ab solute ruin. Nothing that he can raise is capable of being protected except wool, and even if protection should add a few cents a pound to the price of that cammodity—which the benefit he wonld m uld be ridiculously inade as a compensation for mous losses he must sustain staplos—grain and pr out of foreign the increased prices he w ged to pay to monopolistic ause the prodod ngs can be and has been and combinations lized their manufac wxible y y is very doubtful derive fr uch an advance w (quate enor his great —ghut markets, 2k of ak of is piain § isfaction of a tgif! on uld protect the staples of agri in the home m re pr MRet 80 long as duced in surpl rt,'’ Mr. Lubin San Francisco B » that the newspaper { 18 quantities makes his offer 1leti with to establish its ¢ being only an *'i The Bulletin declines the Important Information. “The repeal of the McKinley tariff," says a Republican organ, ‘brought us the raid upon the gold reserve.

Grow argued at much length upon the great importance of the home market of the United States, with 70,- 000,000 consumers, and upon the com- parative insignificance of foreign marts for American productions, says the Phil- adelphia Record. There is a Home Mar ket club in Boston which is devoted to tho dissemination of like notions, but what world Boston be as a commercial emporium df such notions should pre- | vail? The superiority of the home mar kot was a favorite argument of the Brit ish Tories of the last generation against a repeal of the protective system. With what unction Sir Archibald Allison used to prove that hardly a twelfth of the wealth of Great Britain was produced by manufactures for the export trade! 3ut British merchants and manufactur ers wore none the less convinced of the necessity of foreign m wrkets for Britl supremacy. No one dispute ¢ that the of merchandise is madi home market. This is true of the and the richest of nations, of t poorest as well as the richest of of nities, But it is tion or « ‘ Ign Intercourse in or exchanges ost mimn just as true that the na nmunt i y home market must fal and industrial decay. Ame pations Spain affords a sad effects of Je 1] and exclusiveness which Mr, Grow seek ercial the the comm to inculcate among the American people, Of the leather products of the United States the surples for expor exceeding $16,000,000 in constitute a twentieth part of consumption. Yet if for the surplus of American tures of no manu fn leather, depression and distress This is in the { would overtake the entire one Instance among many trade of the United States. Whether the surplus of any domestic export be $10, 000,000 or $100,000,000 in value, upon the existence of an outlet for it depends the prosperity of the home market. Nothing proves this more conclusively than the history of the American indus try in question. When duties were im posed om hides, the tanning industry of the United fre quent vi g great loss of capital ut un the free list, nearly 20 years ago, dustry in the country has enjoyed great a degree of prosperity. The outlet for the surplus leather, secured for the first time by free hides, is the safety valve of the entire tanning industry. Bo well is this understood that the most ex treme protectionists refrain from urging a restoration of the duty on hides along with a duty on wool. With all their high tariff and home market notions they cannot fail to perceive that on hides would surely destroy trade im leather, and in doing » the tanning {the wh try in embarrassment and di a significant fact ti 15? tauners are enthusiast) free trade in hides Mr. Grow him nized the reign States was ibject to jssitudes involvis But since hides were industries o at all the eneiits of few years ag trade in coal bx and Canada ports of with the Mr utlet for however sma al w Car sure upon « home produ force and al would Ju A Lesson In the Tariff Situation, delay of the eastern rolling 1 for the Met complete refutation he wl the laws rast Against The having a very profitable season ng to the of the ¢ agencies ty Times rm maanuf; reports mimer - Kansas ( Patriotism Versus Jingo.
