FREE TRADE AND THE FARMER The Journal in yesterday's iesoe m.iken a laliorious attempt to prove that a protection in an evil, and ren 'd'TH it difficult for the reader to draw an inference other than that we Mhould adopt free trade. It is not often that a democratic paper id no frank in dealing with thin question an in our contempo rary. They inoially pernint in pleading for "tariff reform," but our friend in outspoken and give un liis concluxionH without qualified tion or disguise. What tlie Journal ha to nay an to the dependence of every enterprise upon the farming industry and the necennity for the pronperily of the f.iriner, before other industries can prosper, we fully indorne; hut when it nay that our nyntem of protection an inaugurated ly the illustrious fa'her of our country, advocated and favored ly the prenervern of our I'nion, hut which has been op poned by every enemy thin govern rnent ever had when it claimn that thin svetrm workn ilinudvHtitu Heounly to the farmer, we enter a firm and emphatic denial. Thin coiiulrv han an extruded area that in well adapted to agri culture, and naturally enough t H' available land will be put Under cultivation, but will it be profitable for in all to be farmers': It neemn reasonable that noine step must be taken to diversify the industry. The f. inner tired manufactured good ami laborer employed in manufactories need products of th farm, hence the creation ol new industrien can not fail ! heli the farmers. To have llii-se induslries in llur country a protective tarilf in necen nary. Our inanufacturern have to compete with a country that han an enormous amount of capital; crowded population that in com pelled to work at man iif.n t u r i ri lt at the wacn nuifented by the em ployer or remain idle, in air.tnli they cannot turn to farming a (In-) can in thin country; and a country that number iln yearn of distance by the thousands while we number ours by the hundreds. So it up pearn very plain that we are lu-r inferior nn regard advantages fir divcreifyinjj the industry. Hut it in an established fact that under a protective tariff our indus tries have become no numerous and our consumptive force no reat that the American farmer liiuU a ready demand for all of hin perislia Me and Vi per cent of all staple products in hin own country. Hut you ask, Can we not have thin with out protection? We trieil free- trade policy in thin country at three diifereut times, and in every instance business wtauutiou aul distress followed. On the eve of the war of 112 congress passed a lotfl'ly protective tariff law on condi tion that the law be in-operative at the close of the war; accordingly in 1 1 I free trade was a'aiii in full blast. The result was, owinjr to the advantages possesed by (he mother country, that our inanufactiirien were closed and business prostrated. One writer sums the conditions up as follows: "No price for properly, no sale except those by the sheriff and marshall; no employment for industry; no demand for labor; No SW.K KoK I'KonrCTH OF TIIK KAKM; distress the universal cry of the peo,ile; relief the univrrs.il de mand." Thin relief came with the enactment of the tariff of 1H24, Thin act, supplemented by an additional act of H'-S ntrain started our in dustries ami brought nomine pros perity to the country. Hut a spirit of jealous) soon man i li sted itself in the south and under Calhoun the CI) of disunion and f ee tiad.e be came popular a. nl in order to check the trouble in 1:U the tariff was a-ain re-adjii-.ed. Hut in IMU a purely revenue tarilf, or practical free trade was adopted. In regard to its elfcct upon the country Presi dent Huchauan in hi message to congress says: "With unsurpassed plenty in all the elements of nation, al wealth, our manufacturers have suspended, our private enterprises of different kinks are abandoned and thousands of useful laborers are thrown out of employment, and reduced to want. The foregoing proves conclusive ly and substantiates the reasonable canclusion arrived at in comparing .1... ... - t ,.1,1.... our advantanen wan uio.t ui .mm countries; viz, that n we expect to maintain this diversity we must not adoptfree trade. It is particularly noticeable that the democratic party ia appealing to tire farmer, uin practically the same argument that was used in l4o. Hut the farmers have been benefitted by past experience. 1 hey realise that thrice this policy has had full nwav, and thrice our manu facturing industries were pros trated, and thrice their interests have miTiered intensely. It in also true that where we have been enabled to start manufacturing industries, by the aid of protection, ami rendering ourselves independ ent of (ireat Britain, that the pr lo ot irooiU han invariably fallen. British j;reed knows no bounds. and experience proven that when, an from lt) to Wil, we were com pelled to buy the British article or do without, we were forced to pay exhorbitant prices for everything consumed. Hut by starting indus tries in our own country, and com petition being stimulated, the foreign monopoly ha been crushed and prices nteadily declined. Surely, a protective tarilf is not a bad thing for Americans yi every profession. In regard to the foreign demand for our cereals, we have to nay that our farmers never enjoyed a better foreign market than the recent pro tective tariff bill has assured them; not even during the good old free trade times of IM'Ho 'til. We only need to export about H percent of our products, but our farmern need have no fer thai they will be readily received. The Journal seems not to be aware of the fact that (iermatiy under the recipi ochI provisions of the new law, removes her tariff on our Mrk, providing we will accept her nuga'. Well, a treaty to thin effect has taken place since the McKinley bill became a law, and negotiations to the name effect are pending with France and Austria llie American iariuir will demand a liner spun theory than the free trade dogma, which i,de.il in tin shell in Ihiscoiiutr) . li Kmli ) im is popular now.

Hull recently conducted some eijsrimenls with ice creum freeters. and be tiuds that galvanic action takes place, which results in the introduction of poisonous salts of copper aud tmc into the cream. It appears that the freezer and the uddle are generally made of dissimilar meUm, and the cream, especially if mixed with fruits or other acids or even saline sulmlauces, forms an electrotyte, which naturally completes the nec.es.sary conditions fur galvanic action. W itb galvanic action there is, of course, chemical action, result'iig in the formation of salts of tine and cop per, which become mixed with the cream. Dr. Hull has probably discov ered the cause of many mysterious can of poisoning which have followed the consumption of ice cream. The remedy, however, seems very simple; if the freezer and the miier were made of the same metal, no galvanic action could take place. Iron. Tli Longest Tolegraulila t'lrruli.

El Paso sig naled Spencer to call Kansas City, which he did, and Kansas City in turn told hitn to call Washington, who was evidently waiting, as the reply came in stantly, when Spencer sent the follow ing message: "T.
