The business conditions were seldom more encouraging than they are now. A Democratic congress would not allow an American steamer' to carry the flour and corn of generous American givers to starving Rus sians.

Are you satisfied ;with 13 cent corn .r0-whcut( and KjCent cow'f" The l'i cent cow might be consi dered a reasonable and suggestive topic by way of comparison for the thoughtful farmer.

The preamble of this act de by the fact that our warding dared that it was ' necessary for the against outside interference in the support of the government, fur the alTairs of the countries of this conti discharge of the debt of the United nent meant something, and the j States, and the encouragement and countries of the hemisphere have protection of manufactures that found it a bulwark of protection to ; duties be laid." This act combined them. When France took aivan- revenue wun i'mu.u.uh iw.j successful taritfact must, it em bodied every frnture of the protec tive doctrine. It had a free list, specific duties, and an ail valorem rates; some goods were taxed more and some less, and it discriminated so as to encourage and protect our own industries, lioth in name and in form it was a protective tariff. We are often reminded that those were the pure and patriotic days of the republic when the founder of the government were only intent on the public good, and partisan greed of office did not hinder wise legisla tion. It it is well, therefore, to remember that a protective tarill originated with, and was first ap plied by the fathers of the constitu tion, who may well be credited with an understanding of its powers and purpose. Under the benign influ ence of his protective tariff our revenues were made ample to meet the requirements of the treasury, our manufacturing industries were plated and fostered, our national credit established, and our country freed from the productive vessel- ige which had so persistently been enforced upon us as colonies, and from which the confederation was powerless to deliver us.

All market of the United States. In order that the American farmer may be encouraged in finding Ja market for his beef without foreign competition, the McKinlcy bill in creased the tariff to $10 per head. The avernge importation for the last five yearB has been 88,000 hend per year, and the average price for the last nine months has been $12 per head, equally annually to a million and a quarter dollars. The McKinlcy tariffjin 1800 making it $10 per head must certainly prove pro hibitive, and the additional increase in sales to the American producer must be this vast sum of a million and a quarter dollars. Can farmers possibly fail to see the great bene fit of such legislation? THE UNITED STATES AND SOUTH AMERICA. One of the latest fictions of the London Times' correspondent in Chile is to the effect that the in tluence ot tne united Mates in Central and South America has diminished materially in the past few months. This alleged condi tion of things, of course, he attri butestothe recent Chilean difficul ty with this country. The people of the United States have not taken much notice of this meddlesome individual thus far, although in directly nnd temporarily he has harmed us in a considerable degree. To the extent of his opporlunties and influence he prejudiced Chile against us, and helped to create in that country the feeling which led t the attack on our sailors in Val- pariso nnd to the preceeding and subsequently insults to our flag, His falsehoods in his paper about us was telegraphed back to Chile, and found iniplict credence in that country as well as in his own. Through him Chile obtained an tit terly false impression of the doings and designs of the United States, and England acquired erroneous views of the' controversy. This of these countries are on the gold basis, and the silver which circu lates in them is held up to its face value in gold by the fact that silver coinage is virtually suspended, and by the further fact that the govern ment of each stands ready to em ploy all practicable means to keep silver up. Austria naturally desires to aban- don the companionship of Russia and to get itself into harmony with the more progressive nations. Thin renders the accumulation of a considerable stock of gold indis pensable. It is supposed that the rest of the world will thus be drawn on for from $100,000,000, to $150,000,000 of the yellow metal. Where can this amount be obtained? Obvious ly the United States and Great Britain are expected to furnish most of it. France and Germany guard their gold jealously, while neither Italy or Spain have any of it to hpare under any conditions. It is now believed that nearly all the gold that has left the bauk of En- land in the past few weeks has gone to Vienna direct, while most of that which has begun to move from the United States is said to have the same destination. Thus the gold exportation which has just set in has a peculiar inter est for us. Only about half of the $S3,000,000 sent by us to Europe in the first half of lSdl has returned, although all of it was expected back by this time. That drain had no injurious effect on the country's business er enterprise, so far as can be preceived, but could the country spare that much this year? This is a question which financiers are be ginning to put to themselves. The general opinion is, however, that no real peril threatens us. The oper President Harrison has now appointed the last of the nine judges of the United Stiites circui court of, appeals, and it may be surely said that he has not made a mistake in a single one of his se lection. Acta of this kind com mend the administration to what Mr. Lincoln used to call the plain people, and make it strong among them with a strength far surpass ing any amonnt of "brilliancy," so- called. DONT FORGET IT. Don't forget that the McKinley bill still lives, nnd is hourly vindi cating the wisdom of the protection system. The Tribune is perfectly aware that the campaign of 1891 is over, but also calculates to do a lit tle missionary work occasionally. For instance, it rises to remark that one year and a half ago e em -free trade organ in America was a daily prognostics tor that the iniquitous McKinley tariff law would destroy American commerce. What does the present situation show to us? That our foreign trade, for the year ending Decetnbf r 31, 185)0 counting both imports and exports amounted to $1,417,172,421. For the year 1891 it was $1,898,818,028. Net gain for Un cle Sam of $881,016,587 in just twelve months Webster City Tribune. Farm and Factory. Prosperity to the farmer means similar conditions to nil who labor; but prosperity must first come from the farm; and through the farm to the factory. The farm stands at the threshold of production, and if the farmers' labors go unrewarded success cannot come to those that base their hopes upon what he pro duces. Ihe vast interest repre eented in manufacturing, transpor tation, mining and the minorindus tries must look to agriculture as a basis for nil calculations for the future, It then follows that the home market is the market worth considering; and the political party which aims to iuipairits consuming Specimen Caes.

We showed our friendship for that section two- thirds of a century ago, when, by the Monroe declaration, we warned Europe to stop its meddling in the domestic affairs of the nations of this continent. This proclamation was not lightly decided on and delivered. It was fraught with mighty possibilities lor us in the schemes of European aggrandise ment which it balked nnd in the European antagonism to ourselves nnd our institutions which it nrouscd.
