CAMERON COUNTY PRESS, THURSDAY, JANUAKY iB, 1900.
It is a somewhat curious and satis
factory fact that if Great Britain suc
ceeds in forcing the Boers to pay an
indemnity, It will have to be raised by
taxation from the pockets of the foreign
mine owners of the Transvaal.
Farmers who observe that "ter
ritorial line medium scoured" wools
are now worth GO cents a pound in
the New York market against 30
cents in 1895, under the Demo
cratic Free-Trade Tariff law, and
that "XX Ohio" wools now bring
:V2 cents in the same market against
10 cents in 1895, will not advise
their Democratic friends to make
the Tariff a leading issue in 190 ft.
