WHAT SECRETARY WILSON TOM)
THE FARMERS.
For. half a century wo have had
Republican policies. When the party
came into power there were few rail
ways, few factories and 'little popu
lation in tho west. Tho western
country yielded grains and meats
abundantly, but there were no mark
ets beyond the requirements of new
settlers. The people were intelligent
and saw at once that home markets
wero needed. It cost too much to
send crops to Europe. Wo wanted
shops, forges, factories and we got
them by encouraging them. A pro
tective system was adopted that made
a homo market Into which the out
side world has wanted to enter ever
since. Tho Republican policy then I
was to give Protection equal to tho
difference between the cost of pro
duction at homo and abroad.
While we wero building up our
manufacturing system tho public
lands wero being given to the people,
which resulted In very cheap food for
many years, not very profitable to
tho farmers. Building transporta
tion lines to the Mississippi Valley
nnd beyond, opening mines and In
creasing manufactures resulted In
complete settlement of the lands In
tho humid regions of our country
and has greatly Increased popula
tion in all vocations until home de
mand for food products Is so great
that prices are higher than they have
been. Tho farmers during all these
years have sustained the protective
system becauso it maintained a
homo market for their products.
They paid moro for their factory
goods, but they wore made at home
and the maker bought farm crops.
Now it Is proposed to let farm pro
ducts come in ireo or at lower rates.
Tho farmers of tho country had
low prices for their crops, whllo
freo lands wore to bo hnd for tak
ing up. Tho farmer endured high
prices for factory goods while those
Industries wero being developed and
tho West was bqlug settled. Jt now
costs hlra'-mbro than It d!4 before.
Tho land Investment Is greater and
labor costs much moro. Is ho now
to bo put In tho same class as farm
ers in now adjacent countries and
sell his goods in an open market
In competition with pioneers of oth
er lnnds? We hnd experience be
tween 1803 and 1807 along" that
lino. Tho factory lost its customers
because goods made cheaper abr.oad
came in. The fnrmor lost hls 'maV
kct because idle factory people could
not buy. , 4
we have good times now, and'
have had since McKlnley became
"the advance agent of prosperity."
Our country Is very prosperous. The
revision of tho tariff lias lost no
man his job who wanted to work;
no panic tins followed.
