BY HON. THOMAS H. DUDLEY.
Lubor produce wealth and wealth
fives power. The niHimfacturing in
dustries of the country to-duy employ
not less than 5,000,000 people, to
whom $2,000,000,000 in wages are
yearly puirl, and they yearly produce
about $7,000,000 000 worth of manu
factured and other commodities.
These people, and all those dependent
upon them, are fed by the farmer, and
mainly constitute his home market.
The wages they earn in the mill and
workshop, aa we have seen, enable
them to buy the surplus products of
the farmer. Now, those commodities
must be niauufactured either .here o
in Europe. The Democratic part;.-,
who seem to be more anxious to help
the English than our own people,, de
sire that they should be made in Eng
land, and all their efforts are in that
direction, their aim being to take the
work from our own people, and give
it to tht working people of Englnud.
If tfiese goods are made here the wages
for making them, and the profits on
the goods manufactured would be
earned in our own country, and paid
to our own people; if, however, they
are made in England, the wages
would be paid there, and the protits
would be earned there, and the people
in England and, not our people, would
receive the benefit. The English people
would be employed, and would earn
the wages we are now paying to our
people, while our people would be idle.
As we have seen, if the people do not
earn "wages they cannot buy, and the
farmer's home market would be iti-.
jured, if not destroyed. To show how
this would operate lot me give an
example.
' We will take the silk industry of
New Jersey. We made last year in
New Jerwy $28,320,400 worth of silk
goods on a capital invested of $11,000,-
000, and em ployed in this industry
alone are over 20,000 working people,
to whom were paid over $6,700,000 in
wages. These 20,000 people employed
iu this business some in Paterson.
some in Passaic, some in Hoboken,
some in Newark, and some in other
localities received there wages. Many,
indeed most, of these people, have
others dependent upon them. Men
have families, and girls have parents
who live from the wugea earned in the
mills. If you assume that each of
these persons has two others depen
dent upou him, or her, and who thus
live from tbe wages earned, it will
make 60,000 people, all of whom are
directly living from this oue industry.
flow, if all of these people - were
gathered together in one town, they
would make a large city of Miemselves.
But when you, put them together in a
town you create the necessity for other
persons living with them. They would
want churches for religious worship
and clergymen to preach: school-
houses and teachers to instruct their
children; carpenters, masons, plas
terers, and painters to build and keep
the houses in repair; cabinet-makers
to manufacture furniture; shoemakers
and hatters; tailors to make clothing ;
wheelwrights, blacksmiths, and car
rirtgesnd harness-makers; storekeepers,
butchers and bakers to feed the people,
supply the necessaries of life ; doctors
and lawyers ; liaokmen aud day la
borers, etc. They would want banks
and insurance Offices. Nor is this all.
Some kind of government would be
required,, and it would be necessary to
havi men to carry it on, .The police,
fire, light, water, and tax departments,
would require many men. With all
these people and those dependent up
on them, the number in this city
would be increased to not less than
100,000 persons, nil of whom, directly
or indirectly, would be dependent up
on this one industry, aud of this num
ber, every man, woman, and child,
whether working in the mill,attending
school, engaged iu building houses,
making clothes, baking bread, tendiug
the stores, ministering to the sick, or
performing police duty, would be fed
by the farmer. "
Now, although not all gathered in
one city, so far as New Jersey it con
cerned, this one Industry of silk man
ufacture in that state, gives employ
ment to, and supports, directly or in
directly .fully 100,000 persons, scattered
up aud down in different locations. And
the farmer feed tbem. And so with
every other manufacturing iuduetry,
not only in the stale of New Jersey,
but in the whole United States ,whelher
in cotton, iron, wool, paper, or any
thing else, the farmer not only feeds
nil those engaged, and all the other
persons who live indirectly off them,
whether as lawyers, doctors, teachers,
storekeepers, butchers, bakers, lailorsf
dressmakers, carters- or otherwise.
Therefore, when you protect these in
dustries you protect the farmer as well.
Protection to one is protection to (he
other. The people engaged in these
industries mainly constitute thj
farmer's home market, and, a we
have already seen, it is the people who
are employed by these industries that
eat the surplus product of the farmer.
If the people do not earn wages they
cannot buy ; the more wages they
earn, the greater, is their prosperity
and the more they can purchase.
DOES PBOTECTIOW INCREASE THE PRICE
OF PROTECTED OoODSt
But there are those who say that
protection increases the price of pro
tected goods, and that the eople have
to pay the difference between the low
price, I he goods would be if not pro
tected, and the high price tliey bring
when protected, and that the farmer
and everybody else suffers to this ex
tent, and they argue that the amount
of protection placed upou a commodity
represents the increased price to the
purchaser. This is not true. The
history uf protection in Onr country
show, directly the reverse of this. It
shows that upon all commodities, such
as tea, coffee and spices, which, we do
not grow or produce in this country,,
the duty, when imposed, increases the
price to the extent of the duty; but iu
no case has protection permanently
increased the price upon commodities
niauufactured or produced here. The
skill of our workmen, the machinery
we use and domestic competition have
in every instance, as soon aa- the in
dustry has been established, came in
and reduced the price rather lliun in
creased it.
Let us look at the effect of protec
tion upon the prices of articles manu
factured in this country. An examin
ation will show that . there is not a ;
single manufactured commodity, so
far as I know, that is not cheaper to
day in the United States under our
protective system than it was in 1860
under free trade and before the pres
ent protective system went into opei
tttion. Crockery ware is 37 per cent,
cheaper than it was in I860-; cotton
goods are at least 23 per cent, less, and
woolen goods, including diess goods
aud carpets, from 20 to 25 per cent.
less. Silk goods, taking them on an
average, are from 35 to 40 per cent,
cheaper than they were iu 1860, and
so are all other kinds of textile goods
Iron and steel products, including
machinery, edge tools, hardware, farm
ing implements, tools, etc., and house
hold goods, furniture, etc.. are also
much cheaper than they were in
1860.
Our present protective system com
menced- in 1861. The manufacture of
steel rails iu this country begau in
1867. England was charging us at
that lime for steel rails over $150 per
ton, and the duty imposed by ns was
45' per cent, ad valorem. In 1871 the
duty was chaDged from 45 per cent,
ad valorem to a specific duty of $28
per ton, and in 1872- steel rails were
selling for 112 per ton. ' In 1874, two
years after this, steel rails were selling
for $94 25 per ton ; in. 1876, two years
later, they were selling for $59- 25- per
ton ; and in 1885, nine years later, they
sold as low as $27 per ton.
By our present protective tariff, on
the lowest grades of uubleached cotton
cloths there is a duty of 2' cents per
square yard ; on bleached, 3 "cents ;
and en colored prints, 4 cents, wi ll a
corresponding . higher rate on the
higher grades of cotton goods. Will
any one assert that these duties have
increased the price or in any way
added one cent to the cost of cotton
goods in the United States? The
manufacturers of this class of goods- in
this country are selling some descrip
tions of their goods at prices as low as
the duly which is imposed by the law
upon them ; and, as we shall hereafter
see, we are exporting our cotton goods
to England, and sell nig them iu the
markets there in opeu competition
with the English manufacturers. In
none of these cases has the duty in
creased the price ; on the contrary, it
has not only lowered the price, but it
has also forced the English manufac
turer to reduce his price as well, a step
he woull never have tuken so long as
he had the ttioiiopoly of our market
and could fix his own price tor ht
commodities." This reduction did not
take place until our home competition
came in and forced him to put dowu
hi prices.

Onr Weekly Report of th3
Weather and Crops.
The Fros of the Past Two Week.
Injared the Fruit Crop
Very Cool Weather.
Oregon State Weather Service in co
operation with U. S. Weather Bureau
of the department of Agriculture.
Central office, Portland, Oregou, Crop-
Weather bulletin No. I, season of 1892.
For week ending, Saturday, April 23 :
WESTERS ORBGOW.
Weather There has been during
the week a continuation of' the cool,
cloudy, and partly cloudy weather,
except on the 19th and 20th, when
the weather was warm- and the sun
shone brightly. There has been less
rainfall than for the past several weeks,
though nearly one-half an inch fell
the interior valleys. Frosts occurred
on the 17th, 18th, 19th and 20th. The
winds hav9 been southerly and light
in force.
Crops The frosts of the past two
weeksinjured the fruit and in places
the strawberry crop. The extent of
the injury can not now be ascertained,
but it stands to reason that when fruit
trees are in bloom they cannot exper
ience a freezing temperature ami yet
be uninjured. It is not, howexer, ex
pected that the frosts injured the fruit
sufficiently to make a deficient pro
duct. They hardly did more than
prune the crop very well, which will
allow that which remains to become
more perfect and fine. Fruit growers
from Grant's Pass, Williams, Jackson-
viPe, Ahland, Roeeburg and almost
every valley county report damage
done bv the frosts. It will most likely
be found that when tbe fruit is as
large as a musket bullet that it will
drop off, showing thea the effects of
the prpseut injury from the trusts.
Fall wheat on low lands lias a siekly
and yellow look, showing the need of
warmer weather and less moisture. On
the higher grounds the wheat and oats
are doing remarkably well, so far as
growth ut the roots are concerned, but
owing to the cool weather there is little
growth above ground. Spring seeding
is greatly delayed and the spring acre
age may be less than usual on account
uf inability to have grain sown. In
Curry county figs are well formed and
fruit is Jese injured liy" frost than in
any county iu the state. (Tlie weather
on the 19th and 20th was favorable" to
all vegetation, but other than these
two days the weather has been un
favorable. Warmer nights and warm
sunshine during the day are needed
to develop all vegetation. '
EASTERN OREGON,
Weather Continued cool weather
has prevailed. The nights have been
frosty, while the middle of the day has
been generally warmer. General raius
occurred during the week, with snow
in parts of Wallowa, Morrow, Grant
and other interior counties on the 17th.
The snow melted from off the valleys
within a day.
Crops Warmer weather and sun
shine re needed to develop the winter
wheat. - Spring grain is ' above the
ground in some sections, while in
others it is not one-half sown. In
Umatilla, Wasco, Sherman, Morrow
aud Union counties considerable of
the land intended for the summer
fallow has a fine stand of volunteer
wheal and it will generally be left un
disturbed, thus considerably increaa-
ig the acreage. The cold rains and
cool weather have been injurious to
the young lumbrand some loss, though
small, has occurred. The frosts did
damage to the fruit , buds, though tbe
amount of damage is yet unknown.
South of tbe Blue mountains the fruit
buds are beginning to open and will
bloom by May 1. The green aphis is
reported to be troublesome at Pilot
Rock, Umatilla county. There ap
pears to be little or no damage done to
the fruit. From the froKts along tbe
Snake river and in some orchards
about The Dulles and Hood river no
damage is autioipated.

POUIiTRY NOTES. -.
Keep the henhouse cleau.
A good appetite is the 4 best sauce
to be served with roast fowl.
Chicks do not require to be fed until
21 hours old. . Why? Nature provides
supply, :
Better feed a little more and secure
a good growth, than to stint and prac
tically waste the feed.
Your roosts are up lo high. Two
feet for large breeds and four feet fur
small breeds is about right.
It is bad policy to save time aud
trouble by feeding fowls at one time
enough to do them a week.
Beans and peas cooked, thickened
with bran and fed twice a week are
excellent food' for laying hens.
Poultry will not thrive on damp
ground. This has been said before
but is true enough to repeat.
In ordering seeds get a supply of
sunflowers,. and plant so as to have
the seed next winter to feed to the
poultry.
For setting, pick out smooth, well
shaped eggs from hens that are over
a year old, or pullets that are well ma
tured.. '':.:'.' ,'
Sending stale eggs to market is ft.
good way to get a reputation that
will stick to you after you have got :
tired of it.
One advantage with poultry of the
farm is that when a full range can be
given, all varieties can be kept to a
good advantage. .
The mule bird that dees not aland
squarely on his "pius," in other words
shows signs of leg weakness, aud is of
no value as a breeder.
When the hens are well fed and
comfortably boosed, and yet do not
lay, a little cayenne pepper in the food
as a stimulant will often be of benefit.
Don't permit hogs and fowl in the
same yard.: If the fowls don't eat the
hogs, the hogs will eat the fowls. In
eitlier case the food costs more than
it comes to.
: Dry earth and sifted coal ashes are
nowhere of greater service than on the
floor of the duck house. A sprinkle
of straw will make things sweet aud
comfortable.
- Wire netting is an excellent mate
rial to use for making temporary
yards for fowls. It is easy to put up
and can be readily taken down and
moved when necessary.
-; Hens' nests should be often renewed',,
the old ones being burned or other
wise destroyed. In no case should a
nest in which a hen has hatched bo
used any more forever.
; Does poultry keeping pay? A care
fully kept account : will answer this
question in a pratical way. Let the .
account be perfectly honest, giving
the fowl due credit for value re
ceived.- ".
Sometimes hens become very indut
trious and refuse to set just when their
owner wants their service the most.
In such cases .feed corn freely, and
wilhold bran, meat and seasoned food.
In marketing poultry a neaflr
dressed carcass is half sold. Bleed in
the mouth, dry-pick, draw . every
feather, wash feet and head to remove
dirt and' b'ood, and pack in a clean
box, basket or barrel.
By the judicious use of incubators
and brooders, young chickens can be
kept on the market all the year
round. Wherever fertile eggs can be
obtained, so can the chicks, ; This ia
a triumph of art over Nature.
