The Obio farmers have at last awaks
ened to a sens: of the injnstice practiced
upon them by the tariff champions,
Congressman Outhwaite of that State
received a petition from a number of
4 asking that the
goverament pay a bouoty on every bush-
él of wheat in the United States. They
give as 8 reason for this request the low
price they receive for wheat and tax
ation on goods purchased from home
manufacturers. They state that many
indastries in this conntry not pearly so
iraporisnt nor valuable to the prosperity
of the country receive an increased price
for their goods because of a tax levied
by the ariff in the way of protection
aginst competing goods from foreign
countries, while the farmer is put off by
& mere paper daty on foreign wheat
which does him no good whatever.
The petition asks that a bounty of 20
cents a bushel be paid the wheat raiser
the idea beiog to equalize the standiag
of the farmer and manofacturer, It is
estimated this would require $90,000 +
000 which the petition states is not one-
fourth as mach as the increased price
the farmer now pays on home made
gwds by reason of protection under
which the maaafacturer is enabled to
increase his purse to an unfair profit,
The petitioners farther suggest that
if congress does not wish to pay the
bounty it should, in jastice to the farmer,
rence daties on manafactured goods to
onehalfl the present rate. It also sug
cesta that even if tha bounty is paid the
duty on manufactured gorda should be
reduced to 40 por cent. At the end of
two years the bounty on wheat could be
rednced to 15 cents a bashel and the
average duty on mannfsctared goods to
80 per cent of the present rate, Two
years after that the bounty could be
made 10 ceuts a bushel and the daty 25
per cent, the bounty ou wheat always to
remain at one-half the average duty on
manufactured goods.

Lessons for American In-
dustries.
Only a few days ago it was aeathorita-
tively announced that some $3,000,000 of
English capital has been put into the
leather industry of this city, and that
negotiations were in progress for land on
the outskirts of the city to build up the
new suburb of Leatherton, This foreign
capital comes here to engage in the
leather in lustry, employ American labor
aod cheapen American product by en-
larged output, solely because our leather
industry is one of the few American in-
dustries that is giving free raw meterials.
Before hides were free, we bought largely
of leather, shoes, harness, eic,, from
Europe; since hides have been made free,
we not only produce our own leather by
American labor, but we supply our entire
market with American shoes, harness
belting, etc, and furnieh tbe best and
cheapest ever known in the country, and
in addition export over $10,000,00 for
foreign markets,
Another great industry of this country
has free raw materials, and that is the
manufacture of cotton. The bulk of our
raw material is] grown at home and 1s
one of the great farming interests of the
country, but our American cotlon, like
our American iron ores east of Lake
Superior, cannot be worked for many
products without mixtare with foreign
raw materials, We import nearly 1,000,
000 bales of Egyptain cotton because it
is a necessity to mix its different fibre
with oar American cotton, and that for-
eign raw material is admitted free. The
only other important American industry
that has been given free raw material is
our silk manufacture; and under the
stimulus of free raw silks, it has grown
with suprising rapidity and now supplies
nearly or{qoite one-half the silks worn
by our people,
The latest of the many late impressive
lessons for American industries comes
in the announcement that Eoglish cap-
italig's are here with $3,000,000 to invest
in the manafacture of cottons, and that
they have finally purchased lands for the
purpose at Lenover, Chester
where their mills, bouses, etc.
erected. This is a most important stride
in, and a most important lesson to, our
American cotton industry, It teaches
two things which American manofac
turers in every channel of indastry must
learn sooner or later and soon at the
Jatest. It teaches —first, that capital can
be commanded from abroad only in our
industries which are supplied with free
raw materiale, such as cotton, leather
and silk: and secon, that it is midsums
county,
will be
mer madness to attempt the manufactore
of cottons at this late day with the
machinery of a score of years or even a
decade ago. There are maay cotton and
woolen mills in Chester and Delaware
eounties which once were largely pros
fitable, but which to-day, with their
obsolete machinery, could not earn
profits under the best direction or with
any rate of so~called protective daties.
The time has come when, despite the
antiquated theories of high war tax
statesman, we must cheapen every Amer.
joan product tv make the industry suc-
cessful. We must not only cheapea
products to bold our own markets, but
we must steadily and speedily advance
to compete with other countries in their
markets. Oar 4bility to do so is clearly
shown by practical experience. The
Disston saws and tools are sold in every
market of the world at a profit to the
mana facturers; we s=1l millions of cheap
cotton gnods abroad aod nodersell Eng:
land ia India; we now export millions
of leather goods, and these are only a
few of many American indastry which
now no" only supply our home markets,
but compete in the foreign markets of
the world. We must cheapen American
products by employing the best ma.
chinery and the best skill of the age, and
by giving all our leading industries free
raw materiale with all needless taxes
removed from the necessaries of life.
Let American industries learn the lessons
which is now clear as unclonded noonday
and honest protectionlito the wages 0
labor and enduring prosperity for both
capital and labor mast follow. —FPhila.
