OSUIM , Oct. 21. Mr. Thomni Kllpatrlck ,
Omaln , N'ob Dear Sir The aiticlo upon
the tnrllT and the McKlnloy bill which ap
peared over my signature In a recent Issue of
Tin : Ilir , Im attracted inorouttantion , If ono
may judge uy the numerous uxprjasloni of
approval which have coma to tno , than I hail
supposed would bo given toll. Ills not con-
cluslvQOvldcncoot escelleiao , however , In
an artlilo of that natuiv , when it simply
finds fiver with filenJj , without exciting
adveiso comment fiom these who hnld differ
ent views. I am somewhat Haltered , there-
foio , by the extended discussion of Us piln-
ilpal features which you ha\o been pleased
to Indulgu In You hmo treated the artlelo
so i-andldly and Its author so courteously ,
that the correspondence ) has seemed
moro llko socl.il inteicotirso than public
discussion. It has bccoino iKed as a
custom that whenever one person sets
up an nfllnnatlvo argument , and another at
tempts to disprove It , or bicak Its force , the
light to rtpiv H assiucd and vvlnloyour
criticism has In no sense skakcn my faith In
the pilnclplcs attnckcil , I shall take ml-
vantage of the oppoituulty to close the dls
ciisslon
It U pleasing to loam that jou admit the
vv Isiioin of publishing my nitldo Just before
election , though In that matter 1 only fol
lowed a habit which we rcmibllcins Imo of
doing things at about the tlmo when they
sco in to bo needed
Your ill it letter being somewhat pcneral
In Us application , 1 shall only take up two or
tin eo of its points. After icforrlng nt length
to inuiiifiiiluius , you use this expression
"Man } of these ludustiies aio inerolj an ex
tension of the work of the farmers " Taking
this statement for a text , jou cnutner-
atoa multitude of things wbldi , In
nn only dav , were mule by the farmer , for
his own uso. Thanks for the suggoitlon
l ° ioin netiSHity , rather thin fium choice ,
farmirs , and u good uimy others , In colonial
times , manufactured must of the ntticles
used In thill' homes and upon the farms , the
nllurmiU\o being to jiuri-h.no aies placed
upon the ninrki't by the mother lountij at
e\.toitionato pikes. After a while , under
the fosteilng c.ue of a gnvcinm nt tint Im
posed tai III upon goods nmimfacturo.l abroad
factoucs and .shops began to appear. Men of
a pi utical and mechanical tuin of mind dc
voted then- time .uul enoi gy to nmnufuituvos
nnd It soon became cloir to tlio firmer th it
articles which hail reqtihod much time and
patient labor for production could bo gottc'n
moioche.iply fiom others , and that the nr-
tlilesvveie better mvdo 'llils condition of
things pcunlttcd the fjrmtrto nttunil oxi'lu
slvclj to his ngiluultural pirsuits , vvhllo his
patronage enabled the manufacturer to pie
CPfilvvItUand develop his industiies Sod
etlos weio foimed In ovoi-y colony pledged to
piuclmso only the oods manufaetuiod nt
home , when thej could bu made to answer
the purpose , and this commiinitj of sentl
meiit was a tower of strength.
From that time to this , the two Interests
have been dependent , one upon the other ,
though scpiiately conducted A taillt
that pioteited the imnufacturci , encouraged
greater cffoit and outliy , while the ripid in
cioaio in i ipacity demanded moie Inboreis ,
and they In turn tiiatlo greater demand upon
the farmer for agricultural products , and so
the gieat economic ptlndplo of "gicatcst
good to tbo number * In
greatest was set mo
tion
The tlmo came when not only the nnnnfac
tuier but the farmer nccilcd protection , and
it was gianted , tlio vvelfaioof the onegoing
hand In hand with the other's prospout }
And tliPse Uv o cl wes , w oiklng together , con
stitute two thhds of our population. The 10
mniuliig thild aio cither in the professions or
morch.iiidislng , and their success anil mainte
nance depends upon tlio good or 111 foituno of
those in whoso behalf ihm uro supposed to
laboi ; hence , if the farmcis and mechanics
arctaiod focproperh the problem is solved
Vou mni call the tauft n Ux If you cheese to ,
but I am siuo that a tac which has been con-
stantlj brlngliiR down prices of food and of
lalinent , and of household and farming utui-
slls , which has developed good taste and ad
vanced c-iUlI/allon by encouraging genius nnd
by standing at the back of American piogress
as .abulwark that cannot bo bioken will bo
chccrfull ) and promptly assumed.
As an American whoso ancestry runs back
thiough the two wars with Lnghnd to
colonial times , I have inherited a full meas
ure of lojalty , and am thoroughly in accord
with the Idea that protection , not only to
Amcikan indiistiiesbut to Aineilean ngrl-
eultuio , has been the moving foice , the
tremendous lover , which has lalscd this re
public to a higher plane , In n given time ,
than auj other nation has Torched. Theio
views uio nnttiral to me , just as I suppose op
posite opinions aio in a nicasuio hold by you ,
because jour cailicr education nnd businiss
oxpei lento were acquired In a countiy wheio
free trade views prevailed. Whether either
or both of us shall yet sco reason for aehango
of sentiments cannot now bo dctoimined ,
though I liopovon will receive the blessing
bofoio lonp and bo able toglvo to the Amer
ican Idea of protection the benefit of your
excellent mind.
Again , jou say , after quoting my remarks
conceininif the makers of cotton in New
Kngland , the tobacco lalsers of Virginia , and
the luiubci mou of Michigan , that 'it tuins
out , finally , that this grand protection party
has thrust upon the people a livv which no
ono thinks Is'for the gieitest good of the
greatest number.1" I cannot agrco vvith this
conclusion I stated that selllshness , not
belief , prompted the people of ditfcunt
localities to ask icllef from tariff on goods
other than thuli own productions , and added ,
that If selfishness could bo eliminated from
our naturus the problem could bo dispassion
ately coii klciod , nnd this 1 bellev o to bo true.
1 coma now to that part of your second let
ter vv heio j on take a position which , to mo ,
seems absolutely untenable , that "tho object
of a high piotcctlvo tiriff Is to enhance the
piIco of thoattlclo produced. " The object of
a tariff for protection is to enable the people
of a country to develop IU rosouices witlnut
Piicounteilng the certain ! ) of being crushed
in the elicit bj foreign ininufaUuieis , who ,
liming held a monopoly , aio willing to sacii-
HcoptollUi long enough to oveiwhclm a com-
pctitoi who has dared to enter the field.
Mnivo\ci , It is clear to any observing mm
that theitTcetof high tailit Is not to enhance
values When steel lalls were being sold in
this country uy English imnufaeturersof im-
waids of jcitW per ton , American lailiind

$ - , ' iO per foot , but American skill and Amorl-
IMU capital , bicked by protective
tailff , has so developed the indus-
tiy In this country as to fuinlsh
the finest grade at from 30 cents to $1 per
foot. Cut glass , that was once an Imported
luxury that only the wealthy could have , Is
now manufactuied la America to such an ex
tent as to btipply almost the cutlro demand
and at prices that bringit to a poor nun's
table , ( itblcts ) that cost but a few jears ugo

Omaha for 7. ) cents , and a very good aiticlo
can bo bought by the Jobbers in 1'ittsbuig nt
liS ceutt per do/en. In 1870 there were but
eighty-eight silk mills in this country , whoso
product was $12.500,000. , Within tea jeurs
tlm number had Increased to ! h' , with a cap
ital of flO.OJO.OOO , giving eniplojment to
! ll,000 operatives , aud turning'out goods to
thaluo of $11,000,000 , and puces mo lower.

the fostering Influence of protection the num
ber has intreased to 25,000 , with half a
million einiilojos , whose vvugcs are { 101,000-
000 a j ear.
I cannot paitlculnrlzoany further without
abusing the couitcsy of Tun Uir , nor is Itcs-
sontlul , In my foimor aitlcla it , way my pur-
iw o to Impress two facts upon people's at
tention-
1. That the protective policy had been the
means of developing the resources and
Industries of this country bojond ull
precedent. The latter part of this proposi
tion you admit ; the former , In the light of
revealed facts , seem equally clear.
' . ' . 1'lut n direct result Irom the action of
brains , the oxorcisool energy , the investment
ofcapltul , which clem nts. together , have
accomplished this development , has been
healthful , spirited competition , not only
between manufacturers , but between dealers ,
mid from this same competition there have
come KIeater variety ofwares and crou
decreasing prices. Of course prices fluctuate * ,
as uno cause or another effects the market ,
and these changes nro usually of bilof dura
tion , but the goncral tendency from the
earlier times to the present has been toward
reduction , England maintains her free trade
policy. The tlmo has been when she con
trolled the manufacture nnd sale or very much
that Is essential to the comfort and happiness
of mankind. Under that policy she has
ground Ireland's ' prosperity out of existence ,
but the situation has prompted development *
of Industries In oilier nations , and
now when she finds herself con
fronted by a prospect of still greater
competition , and the loss of n great deal of
trade , her cry bus gone out against It. The
J'ull Mall On/ette , In a recent Issue , com
piling because German inannfautuiers. under
protection , aiosecurlng a prestige which be-
to'tctm ' n curtailment of Kngllsh trade , and all
