riffur** That Show That Sonia LegUlatorii
Are Ignorant or Dlahonaat
The farmers are told that the McKin
ley tariff bill was framed In their inter
est, and in proof of this they are referred
to the protection given them by the in
creased duties on agricultural products.
Let us see how the claim will bear in
vestigation.
The duty on corn has been increased
from 10 cents to 15 cents per bnahel in
order to protect the farmer from the im
portation of “pauper labor com.” The
total amount of com imported for the
fiscal year 1880 was 2,401 bushels. The
exports for the same time were 69,392,-
929 bushels. How thankful the farmers
ought to be for the increased protection
against foreign com!
On com meal the duty has been
doubled, the present rate of 10 cents per
bushel being raised to 20 cents. The
necessity i f this additional protection is
evident when it is know n that 396 bush
els of corn meal were imported lad
year, against an export of 312,186 bar
rels.
Oats are to be protected by an increase
of duty from 10 cents to 15 cents per
bn<hel. The imports of oats were 22,314
bushels, and exports 624,226 bushels.
Rye will remain with only 10 cents ]>er
bushel protection. This is wrong. Six
teen bushels of rye came into this coun
try last year, against 287,252 bushels sent
>ut. There ought to be more protection
against these 16 bushels.
The duty on wheat has been increased
from 20 cents to 25 cents per bushel. The
farmers will be grateful for this. Last
year no less than 180,649 bushels of
foreign wheat came in to compete with
the home product, of which 46,414,129
bushels were exported.
Wheat flour is to jury an ad valorem
duty of 25 i>er cent, instead of 20 per
cent. The imports were l.lJfi barrels,
and exports 9,874,803 barrels.
The American apple crop most be pro
tected. There has been no duty on
apples, groon, ripe or dried, but the
American orchard is to have tho protec
tion of 2 cents a pound on dried apples.
Last year we exported 9-12,406 barrels of
green apples and 22,102,379 pounds of
dried apples. We imported not an apple
nor a pound of dried apples.
The duty on bacon and hams lias been
increased from two to five cents per
pound. The importswere 212,130 pounds
and exports 400,224,646 pounds.
On beef, pork and mutton tho present
duty is one cent per pound; the proposed
duty is two cents. Tha imports were
215,575 pounds and the e xports 288,991,-
121 pounds.
It is as plain as a pikestaff that the
farmers are suffering because of want of
protection on their com, wheat, oats,
rye, bacon, beef, pork, com meal and
apples. They are burning their com in
Kansas because 2,401 bushels imported
last year mined *their home market.
They are scattering their com meal on
the ground because 396 bushels of foreign
meal found its way into tho country;
they blew themselves to pieces with
dried apples and water because they had
no tariff fence to keep out tho foreign
apples that had not sought admittance.
They mortgaged their farms because
one pound of bacon was imported for
every 1,500 pounds exported.—Cleveland
Plain Dealer.
Corn In K»n»a».
The state agricultural department has
been making an investigation as to
whether, under tho prevailing low prices
for farm products, the farmers arc mak
ing money. It is found that the corn crop
of last year sold for less than it cost to
produce it, and that on the entire crop
there was a loss to the farmers of the
state of over $2,300,000. These figures
are arrived at from careful estimates
made in each county as to the cost of
growing the product. The stats was di
vided for this purpose into three sections
or belts—the eastern, central and west
ern.
The estimated cost of growings bushel
of com in the eastern belt was found to
be twenty-four cents, in the central bel:
twenty centa and in the western belt
nineteen centa, and in no instance did
the market price of the product reach
these figures. The secretary of the de
partment made a ruport to the governor
in which he gives the result of his inves
tigations.
He says: “The average cost for the
state of growing corn, with an average
yield of thirty bushels per aero, is esti
mated at 21 centi. If the ivm crop of
the last year had coet 21 cents to grow
it, the loss to the farmers of the state
would be, counting the tn.tr.o t price
now at 13 cents per busied, ah mt $13.-
000,000; but the average yield this year
was about forty bushels per acre, winch
reduce* the cost jx-r bushel to hij cents,
which is still a loss to the farmer of Ij
cento, or $2,300,000 ou tho entire crop.
The only way a fanner can realize a
profit from com this year is to feed it
into stock. "—Topeka Special to St. Lottie
Poet-Diroateh.
Tho Karmors* League.
This organization is designed as an ad-
jnnet or supplement to the Grange, Far
mers’ Alliance and similar orders. The
latter are devoted to the farmers’ im
provement socially and educationally,
and to assist him in buying and selling.
The league, on the contrary, devotes its
attention wholly to politics, and aims to
afford a simple fonn of organization
through which farmers may exert, in
their respective parties, the power and
influence which they possess as tho larg
est body of electors and the heaviest tax
payers in the country. In the language
of the secretary of tho National Fanners’
league, Herbert Myrick, of Springfield,
.Mass.; "The Fanners’ league is de-
I signed to enable farmers to carry into
practical politics the reforms they de
sire. Instead of grumbling at present
laws and taxes, the farmers have only
to unite in tho league to secure for their
, demands the indorsement of l>oth par
ties and all candidates. This being
done, the election is conducted on [tarty
: lines, and the fanners’ interests win,
whichever candidate succeeds. In short,
through the league fanners can do what
has been called the ‘dirty’ work of poli
tics, but which will no longer be ‘dirty’
work when done in all parties by the re
spectable, conservative and intelligent
farmers and real estate owners of the
country." It U stated that the league
is making rapid progress throughout the
entire country, and that it has the sup
port and co-operation of all existing
farmers’ organizations.
X*» btrikes or Lockouts.
There are never any strikes or lock
outs in a farming community. The
fanner works from early mom until late
at night, for what—to help pay a divi
dend!' No. bat to [viy the taxes, and it
may be to raise a mortgage on tho place.
He helps the giant monopolies of the
coufitry to declare large dividends, (he
railroad corporations to build more
roads through his farm and pay him as
little damage as possible, and when he
wants to send his grain to the city they
will charge just what they see fit for
freight, and when yon got it there tho
price is already established. Yon must
take just what they say or go along.
Now the farmer should say what his
produce is worih just as much as the
manufacturer says what his goods are
worth. — Mechanvcsburg (Pa.) Grange
Advocate.

Senator .Siitnford’a Explanation of Hla
New I-lnauclal Pulley.
The |H>wor of tho government to create
money is conceded, and its value is the
same whether metal or [tapir. The im
portant [toint is that it should be stamped
by a government whose credit is unim
peachable and which has the power of
making money.
The next important consideration is:
How can the government withont in
jury to itself place the money in circula
tion. That can be accomplished by tak
ing agricultural lands as security upon
the terms prescribed in the bill. No pres
sure for redemption can be brought to
ts ar, as only those who are ready to have
their mortgages released can make a
claim on the government. The govern
ment loans its credit to the individual in
i order that the whole peo|»le may have a
sufficiency of money with which to pros
ecute their business. The money issned
under the provisions of tho bill shall be
legal tender for all debts, public and pri
vate, except interest on the national debt
and redemption of national notes. There
is no analogy lietween this scheme and
any other financial proposition that was
over suggested.
We can all well understand the great
advantages to the people at this time of
a loan made by the government of 90 per
cent, upon its own securities. One hun
dred thousand dollars of government
liouds at 4 per e-ent. oidy produces $4,000,
yet, when its value becomes energized to
the extent of 90 per cent, (which the gov-
, ernment advances), the |n>wer is so in
creased that the $90,000, in its activity,
may in tho course of a year double Its
value and [lass from hand to hand many
times, stimulating tho various industries
of the country. So, too, this bill will
have a corresponding energizing effect.
The money issned is not intended to ac
commodate the farmer alone, but, as it
comes into circulation, it will put the
means of prosperity within tho reach #f
those who lire engaged in the smaller
: and larger industries of tho country.
This money issned by tho government
| becomes automatic. It will contract
■ when there is less use for it, and expand
, when there is a greater demand. Thus
disastrous final contraction will cease to
lie possible.
The rate of interest proposed—2 [)er
cent.—is fixed for good reasons. No
farmer will borrow unless he needs the
money, and when he ceases to liavo use
for it will return it. Dut this will sel
dom occur, for money borrowed of the
government at 2 [>er cent, can readily
find use at higher ratoe in other inter
ests, ami thus tho fanner will bo bene
fited. A 0 per cent, interest is a burden
that the fanner cannot well bear, while,
owing to the activities of business, the
merchant finds it a reasonable rate to
pay. Tho value of money lies in its ac-
! tivities.
This plan of loaning money upon laud
at 2 [icrcent., with the privilege to the
borrower of re turning it when he has no
, use for it, creates a moneyed system that
will meet financial expansion and con
traction as tbi y may occur without in
convenience to any. Under its provis
ion?, the real estate of the country being
so vast, there will always be the possi
bility of obtaiqpn ; tho money necessary
to curry on tho enterprises of tho coun
try, and when there is no further use for
:ho money tho borrower stops paying in-
I tore: t and takes up tho mortgage upon
his farm.
Tha bill, while not perfect, provides
fairly with the machinery to carryout
its designs. If adopted, with such
amendments as shall seem wise to con
gress, it will largely increase the pros-
, perity of tho humblest classes in labor,
and assist the wealthier to success in
theif enterprises. Tho bill prerides for
wliat may, perhaps, not improperly be
termed a revolution in finance, and I do
not m s t that it will be adopted until
it has been tolly considered by the peo
ple and has met with their approval.—
Senator Stanford’s Speech in the Seriate.
Aiixioufi Otticcliolderx.
Congressmen from several of the
southern and western states are very
much exercised over the political situa
tion. The cause of their anxiety is
found in the organization known as the
Farmers’ National Alliance, (t has a
very largo membership in the cotton and
wheat growing states. Its objects are
such as can lie gained only by legi lu-
tion. It is, therefore, to that extent a
political, though it is not a party, organ
ization. So far it professes an intention
of acting within the lines of the two
regular parties. Of course, if they fail
to gain th ir purpose in that way they
reserve to themselves the right to enter
tho field us a separate political party.—
Washington Critic.
Whim Win They Act?
Tiie fabricants live focalized in the
cities, and plot and scheme for the pro
motion of their selfish interests and
bring their united lobby influence to
bear on members of congress, whereas
the fanners live isolated and scattered,
and can’t or don’t combine in defense of
their interests. Hence they are nnpro-
I tec ted, unrepresented and unconscious
of what keeps them poor. They are cap
tivated by the specious cry of "protec
tion to American industry," though they
get none of it: and of the value of "pro
tected” home markets to them, as if pro
tected monopolists cat any more than
other men. Not until the verdant, im-
[Otssl upon agriculturists wake up to a
realization of the confidence game being
played upon them will the war tariff be
reduced < r reformed; but when will they
I g.-t their eyes open and act?—Chicago
j Tribune.
After aome investigation The New
York World has about decided that the
chief cause of the depressed condition of
New Jersey fanners is to be found in the
outrageous charg ? of the railroad
octopus.

l>o Not Believe In Stores.
There are forty-two branches of the
Farmers' Alliance in Buchanan county,
Mo. At a recent general meeting hold
in St Joseph there was a short discus
sion of the co-operatiri) store system,
when it vm discovered that a majority
of tho delegates were not in favor of the
establishment of this class of stores, so
the idea was abandoned.
The matter of organization tor the
purchase of fanning tools, machinery,
binding wire, etc., was considered at
length and arriiniremeiits perfected for
procuring these supplies. Each union
or school district alliance gave an esti
mate of the amount of these supplies
nsed in Its section during the year,
npon which an estimate wax mode of
the saving that would occur by the en
tire fanning community represented in
the school district purchasing all the
supplies needed at one and the same
time. From figures submitted it was
discovered that the method of tmyiug
farm supplies would enable the farmers
