even ilm dullest factory operative.
Some kinds of products have gone up,
but what kind of products? Smely not
products of the farm, especially wheat,
cotton, or in fact any of the great staples!
of the farm, which are as low as they
were prior to McKinley's election ii
1896. Thut eleolion meant something
to the protective tariff b irons, for imme
diately after congress convened a lawr
was framed which laid the foundation

articles which the farmers arecompelleil
to buy, and In some instances have cut
the wages of their employes, and tho av
erage republican editor, it seems, imag
ines that this la the kind of prosperity
the populists should keep stiil about. .
A simple illustration will show how
this AlcKinley prosperity compares witl
the stagnation that preceded it, whet
II products were very near the cost of
production : A is a farmer who sells his
products at a very low figure when prices
are measured in dollars, but the articles
he buys are also low, so it is plain that
the only high-priced articles in tba
transaction were the dollars he was com
pelled to buy bofore he could purchase
the Ilecesary supplies. B was a com
mon laborer who received low wages, as
measured by dollars, but his necessary
upplies, which were the product of both
the farm and the factory, were low. The
high-priced article in his case is the dol
lar, also. In order to avoid bankrupt
cy, the manufacturers, after securing.
the passage of the Dingley bill, which
practically shut out foreign competition, '
proceded to combine aud form trusts,
by which they have been able to raise.
prices. Their success has been phe
nomenal; and at present all classes of
manufacturers are making a handsome
profit.
Now let ua notice how the present Bit-
nation, which insures large profits to the
manufacturer, effects A and B. A paya
an advance in price for What he buys.
measured in dollars, of from 20 to 50 per
cent, while the price of his products.
with few exceptions, remains the same,
in dollars. Theiefore, it requires mora
of his products to purchase the dollar.
and In exchanging the dollars bo pur
chased, It requires more of them' to se
cure his necessary supplies. Let us no

maining the same, he is now compelled
to perform the same amount of service
(or the dollar, which will buy less of the-
necessaries of life than formerly, owing:
lo the fuct that the trusts have advanced
the price of nearly all articles he ia
compelled to buy.
Hence it seems plain that this boast
ed prosperity which republicans claim,
the glory of bringing about, has simply
increased the burden of the already
over-burdened farmers and laborers, an.
'extra hardship which has put mor
wealth Into the coffers of the trusts, tho
