The Chronicle is in receipt of a com
munication from Dr. Wade Stack-
house, of Dillon, in which he lists the
tariff duties * on farm products that
are prown or can be raised in Sout^
Cardina, that tbeald be written into
the present tariff measure in order to
put the South Carolina farmer on a
parity with other beneficiaries of the
protective tariff system.
Dr. Stackhouse points out that prac-

farmer buys is highly protected while
what he has to sell is either on the
free list or inadequately protected. Dr.
Stackhouse is urging all citizens of the
