state convention. In all counties

grunted for the holding of mass
conventions at the date and hour
There is a plain and simple lesson
taught by the agricultural history of
this country which should be con
sidered, for it shows the futility of
oil reasoning in favor of the agree
ment based upon the selling pi ices
of wheat In the world's markets.
From this lesson it may be learned
that it iR not the price at which
wheat may be sold but the cost of'
its production which determines I
whether free trade in Canadian :
wheat wculd injure the farming Hit -1
erests of the west. When the cheap
lands of the middle west were
brought under cultivation immediate
ly after the Civil war, agriculture
In the eastern part of this country
began to decline; and yet it was as
true then as it is now that the price
of wheat was made, not in the west,
but In the east and In Europe. Not
withstanding eastern farmers were
nearer than western farmers to the
market to be supplied, the latter
had a great advantage because of
the lower cost of production. In
consequence agriculture In the east
entered upon a decline from which
It has not yet recovered.
Under free trade in Canadian farm
products, western Canada, with Us
I,; wist area of cheap land and virgin
soil, would occupy relative to the
west the position occupied forty
years ago by the west relative to
the east. The cost of production be
ing much less in western Canada,
the advantage In competition would
be transferred to that region. If
there had been a protective tariff
sheltering eastern agriculture against
western competition, the farmers of
the east would have been able to
hold their own. lacking that pro
tection they went down. Beyond
question it has been a good thing
for the west that no tariff wall shel
tered the east against western com
petition, and beyond question also It
will be a good thing for western Can
ada if the tariff wall between Can
ada and the United States shall be
broken down. But for which coun
try is the congress of the l ulled
States legislating? Is it for Canada
or for the United States? Denver
