made hy the people in 1S02 resulted in the
repealing of this legislation by Congress
in the Wilson-Gorman act of 1S04, stop
ping this industry. The Dingley bill, en
acted by the extra session of the present
Congress, has again revived the hopes of
the American people. There is a pros
pect now.that this l('.0.lil(l.in:0 will, with
in a few years, be kept at home to h" dis
tributed among the working people
throughout the country. One question
the American farmer must always have
in mind, and that is. the steady employ
ment of our laboring oemte. -We -are-
workers ourselves. Those who employ
labor in other lines would feel the effect
of these new industries. Labor would
be more in demand and get better prices
because of the distribution of this $100,
(iilil,(it;(l among our people. It will be an
opportunity, valuable o the farm not only
in the diversification of crops, but with re
gard to its benefit to the dairy. The by
products of' beet factories will he as val
uable for feeding to the ("airy cow as the
stu'-ar beet would be before taken to the
factory,' because the bulk of our staple
crops has more enrbouacj-ous matter than
the dairy cow requires. The factories only
use the carbonaceous part of the beet,
leaving the .nitrogenous matter entirely
in the pulp. A great impetus will he giv
en to dairying in the United States, the
sugar indiistrv will enable the farmer to
lind this necessary element of cow feed,
and the farmer, when he takes a loud of
beets to the factory, will bring back a load
of pulp and save it up against the time
when h6 needs to feed it. Note the effect
of the two policies as they bear upon tlie
farmer and his prosperity. The theory
of the one is that we should buy in the
cheapest market. We tried that during
the last administration. The theory of
the oilier is that we should produce in the
United States everything that our soil
and climate are capable of producing. A e
remember distinctly the effect of this pol
icy under all Republican administration.
We are getting an earnest of Hie ettect
of it now under the presev' administra
tion. Protection Establishes New I ndiistries
That protection establishes new indus
tries we have had a lively illustration
within the past few years. In lS'Jl we
had no tin manufactures in this coun
try; we imported l,0:Sli,480.0"-t pounds.
President MeKinley placed 2.2 cents a
pound on tin coated iron and steel. That
act has created nearly 2!0 tin plate mills.
In IS! 11 we imported S2."i,!lt!tl,".05 worth.
For the fiscal vear ended .lime .51", i'o,
we only imported $11,482 ".SO worth. v'e
import now for special uses only; very
soon we will not import any.
The idea) condition to be reached is such
diversification of industry that the farm
er will find a home market for most of his
products. The establishment of every
new industry brings us nearer to that
ideal. It is estimated that. 40,000 people
are directly and indirectly employed in
the tin Plate industry. They are new
customers here for the American farm
ers that we formerly fed at arm's length
in other countries.
English manufacturers mnst cheapen
their cost of production if they are to
hold their ground against the American
competitor. And all this is happening
under the Dingley law, of which the free
traders said, three mollis ago, that its
effect would be to close foreign markets
to American commerce, aud especially
manufactures.
"What's the Matter with 5olrt?"
We have coined about ?70Ul0O.O00 of
silver.- We have now over ?U00.000,0ll0
of gold. Silver will sell for the cost of
nrodnction at the mines, and it is being
mined now profitably in many mines, r fee
coinage nt 10 to 1 would deprive ns of our
gold currency and bring the country to a
silver basis, while nil the nations we need
deal with pay us gold. The hard tunes
just vanishing were not caused by ''r'.v
legislation reading currency, as other
people have claimed. The farmers bring
the money from abroad into this country;
we get pay for grains, meats, dairy pro
ducts, etc., in gold. Some people advise
us to insist on getting our pay in silver.
What's the matter with gold.' It goes,
it is all our foreign customers have to
pay us with. Nobody refuses it here. W e
deal in gold values now, do business with
"it." Why interrupt coming prosperity
with divided counsels over a change to
silver values that would relegate gold to
the safety deposit vaults? Gold is an
American product, increasing every day
from Alaska to Tennessee. Gold, and pa
per representing it, are good the world
over. We have perhaps $700,000,000 of
silver in circulation, It pays debts be
cause redeemable in gold. Its certifi
cates are good and in national use. Our
greenbacks nre good because redeemable
in gold. We have plenty of currency, nl
good, nil interchangeable. Why should
we inquire farther into currency? It "
merely the measuring stick of exchange.
Dingley Luivv l'ulillls i'mmiscs.
The Dingley law is doing all that its
framers promised for it up to this time.
The November receipts will average near
ly one million dollars per day for each
business day of the month. All of this is
accomplished without any material reve
nue from the duty on sugar, as the im
porters are now using up their large stock
f tli.il Article which was imported before
the new law went into effect. It is esti
mated that the revenue from the duty on
sugar when the present stock is exhaust
ed will average $5,000,000 a month, which
of itself will be siilllcient to bring the
revenue up to a sum coital to the ordinary
expenditures. With the increase which
will come from other articles, such as
wool, woolen goods and other manufac
tures with which the country had been
filled, it is now perfectly apparent that
the revenue produced under this law will
be ample to not only cover all the ex
penses of the Government, but replace the
losses under the Wilson law.
Exports Outstrip Population.
Mr. Michael Mulhall, in a paper in the
North American Kcviow, asserts that in
the last twenty years the population of
the United States has risen from 45,000,-
000 to 71,000,000 souls an increase of M
per cent and at. the same time the value
of exports has risen 175 per cent that is,
three times as fast ns the population. The
same eminent authority declares that
"the quantities of food yearly exported
are sulllciont to feed IIO.OOO.OOO persons
in Europe, from which it appears that
American farms raise food for 100,000,
000 of people yearly." With a productive
capacity so vastly in excess of the de
mands of the home market it is evident
that foreign markets must, he opened for
our surplus if the country is to enjoy per
manent prosperity. If the administration
can do this through the gates of recip
rocity nil rk'ht: if not. the country will
lind "another way of breaking down the
barriers which choke the channels of dis
tribution ,Kx eh a n ge.
Importations Increase Under Ding
ley I'ilW.
Not even the satisfaction is left to tne
free trade Democrats of saying that the
Wilson law was better for the exporters
nf American manufactures than the Ding
ley law. They thought they had things
dead to rights on this score, and that as
soon as the new law went into operation
thev would he able to point to the decrease
in the expositions of American manu
factures, but in the very first month of
A Great Industry.
Secretary Wilson is constantly on the
lookout for ways and means to benefit the
farmers of the United States. The report
of his department is of unusual impor
tance this year, because it treats of the
efforts' to stimulate the production of
sugar beets. Secretary Wilson is an en
thusiast on this subject. He predicts that
in ten years the United States will be an
exporter of sugar, instead of the largest
importer in the world.
The capacity of the United States for
the production of beet sugar is pratically
unlimited: and with the object-of aseer-tai.nin.-
the most favorable localities for
its growth, Secretary Wilson distributed
seven tons of imported BUgar beet seeds
among 22.000 farmers, in twenty-seven
Stntes. with the understanding that they
should furnish samples of their crop to
the department for the purpose of analy
sis and a statement explaining the condi
tions under which each sample was pro-
tncil ntul the method of culture. ,
The Secretary expresses himself as
deeply gratified by the returns. '1 he most
favorable results have been obtained from
those sections of the United States where
new industries were demanded tor the
farmer and where the manufacture ot
beets into sugar can be accomplished with
the greatest economy as to labor ana
transportation. The experiments in west
ern. Nebraska, Utah and California which
i,o ii.u.r, n f,,v some years nave
demonstrated the practicability of beet
culture in those sections, but the samples
of this year's crop which have been tor-
warded to the department hi -
and the .experiment stations elsewhere
show that the soil and climate of Ohio
and other Central States are even better
adapted for this sort of crop than those
of the far West. It is ou the result of
these tests that Secretary Wilson bases
his prediction that in ten years this coun
try will have sugar to sell. Akron to.)
Beacon.
ket for American wheat products Is being
developed in Asia. From 1S87 to 1801,
inclusive, average annual sales of wheat
flour in Japan 'were B0,(i59 barrels; from
1S02 to 1SW, inclusive, 71.148. In 1SIM
alone Japuan bought 103,582 barrels ot
our flour. For the same periods the aver
age annual sales in China were 15,008
and 20,72;',. The best Asiatic market,
however, seems to be the British posses
sion of Hong Kong, which last year took
S25.S72 barrels of Hour. Exchange.
ANGLO-CANADIAN TRADE.
A Single Instance.
Evidences of improved business condi
tions are found in almost every spot in the
United States. A single instance of this
is given by Congressman Weaver of Ohio,
who says of the village of Troy, in that
State, that the output of the wagon works
at that place in August, ISO", was -0,-200,
against $,'1,200 in August of last year;
in September, 1M)7, $17,700, against $5,
000 in September of last year; in October,
1S07, $20,400, against $7,o00 in October
of last year. The Piqua rolling mill, lo
cated in the same district, reports a larg
er sale of iron in tho last seventeen weeks
than of the entire year of lS'Jii.
l-'aith in the New Tariff.
The great business improvement which
the country has seen since last July is due
largely to the feeling among merchants
and business men that the new tariff will
furnish both protection and revenue sulli
cient to run the Government. This sim
ple restoration of confidence has brought
forth millions of dollars and given employ
ment to thousands of hands at improved
wages. It has caused unused cnunnejs
to pour forth black smoke and idle wheels
to revolve merrily. The new tariff is in
operation, and ils revenues are constant
ly increasing month by month and week
by week. Yet it is to he expected the
Democrats will say that the Dingley law
has nothing to do with the improvement.
British Exports on the Decrease.
The returns issued by the London
Board of Trade show that during the
month of October there was a decrease
of $7,000,000 in the value of Bruisii ex
ports, aud also a decrease of $11,000,000 in
the value of imports, me uecune

in the exports of machinery was ne.iriy
$2,500,000, owing to the strike of the en
gineers. The shipments of tin pintes iu
the United States continue to decrease,
mid the wheat shipments from Aineiiui

value of exports for ten months of lSJi
is $;i0,000,000, as compared wnu tue loi

Tim successful cointictitton of tne Lull
ed States. Cermnnv. Belgium and oilier
countries blessed by'protectiou has had far
more to do with the decrease in l.ritisn
exports of machinery than has the striue
of the engineers. To the same cause is
due the decrease of $:W,000,000 m tne
general line of British exports in the first
ten months of 1S.07. Of all the nations in
Europe Great Britain is the only one left
that clings to free trade, and she is losing
her prestige in manufactures at a luiu-
ous rate. American f.coiionnsi.
Adopting a New Craze.
That the Democracy is substituting for
the free silver issue the single tax idea
and others such is shown by the action of
National Committeeman Shanklin of In
diana, who, in the same day, addressed
Mr. Bryan as the next President of the
United States and then stated that he
would support Henry George if he were
in New York. As is well known, George
was the original single tax prophet and,
in addition to this, attracted to his sup
port in New York all the socialists, dis
contentists and other ists. This brings
Bryan, free silver, single tax, socialism,
red flags and various other cardinal prin
ciples into pretty close touch. -

"American machine tools by hundreds
of thousand of dollars' worth are sent,

of the Wilson law at a corresponding date

England's Gilt-Edgs Arrangement
with Cunada,
A long article in the London Times
shows clearly the English anticipations
of future trade with Canada, also what
share of English trade the Englishman
promises shall be captured by the Cana
dian. Whether this English arrangement
will suit Canada remains to be seen. It
is, in fact, that Canada shall be an ex
clusive market for British manufactur
ers, while Canada may supply Great Brit
ain with more foodstuffs. There Is cer
tainly a very liberal opportunity for Can
ada to do this because she now sells to
England only one-fourteenth of the food
that the mother country buy, or $40,000,
000 worth out of a total of .?577.000,000.
But the first trouble likely to arise, as it
seems to us, is that the buying aud sellinic
transactions are not arranged through the
same atronev. It is the British manufac
turer who sells the British manufactured
goods to the Canadian who deals in them.
But the transactions in the Canadian food
products pass through an entirely differ
ent set of hands. The Canadian export
ers of wheat, cheese, butter, meat or po
tatoes will be anxious enough to sell as
much of these products as Canadian farms
can produce at the best possible price.
They will think that the English buyer
of produce should give Canadian produce
the preference in the English market be
cause Canada discriminates in favor of
British manufacturers. But while the
British manufacturer can sell his goods
to advantage by aid of this discrimination,
all his interest ends there, as he is not
the man who buys farm products.
When the English dealer in farm pro
ducts makes his purchases ho must bear in
mind that he has to sell them again in
competition with a thousand other deal
ers in food supplies. Sentimentally they
may favor the Canadian farm stuffs, but
sentiment is not business, and they have
to buy the best they can get at the lowest
price. United States, Australian or South
American supplies may be just ns good as
the Canadian aud a shade cheaper. Why,
then, pay Canada a higher price just for
sentiment? Or our farm stuffs and those
to the south of us may be a shade better
in quality than those of Canada, and
prices may be equal. Why then pay Can
ada the same money for an inferior arti
cle? It isn't business, says tho British
dealer in farm produce, and, as he is not
selling any manufactures to Canada, he
makes the deal that will bring him the
best resultsmid he buys the Australian,
United States or Argentina foodstuffs.
How can the Ciiiiadian prevent this?
We are afraid llie Canadians are lia
ble to be disappointed with their end of
the stick. Tho gilded handle will be held
by John Hull. The establishment of a
complete system of cold storage for Cana
dian farm products should undoubtedly
tend to help their sale. But the class of
goods that need cold storage will not In
terfere with the wile of our farm supplies,
for we only send to England, nnd that oc
casionally, a little fruit in cold storage.
The new rapid steamers to run between
England ami Canada, equipped with re
frigerating machinery, will supply the
final link in carrying perishable products.
But this, if successful, will he nt the ex
pense of Australian shipments ot similar
products. The cost of freight naturally
being lower from Canada than from the
Antipodes, our northern neighbor should
stand a good chance of securing a fair
share of the trade in fro.on meat, butter
and other perishable things, that is now
held by Australia. Beyond this we doubt
whether Canada has much prospective
.gain from her tariff deal with the mother
country.
No Natisluction lor Free Tenders.
Free traders who expected support for
their peculiar views lrom tho I'iiigli.-li
statistician, Mulhall, will be disnppoinled
to know that he has taken pains to point
out the fact that the exportation of the
United Slates have increased three time
as fast as has her population during the
protective 'urifT period. Mr. Mil, hall
shows in a recently published article that
while the increase iu population in the
past twenty years lias been in per ceui,
. increase in the value of exportation
ha been 175 per cent, and practically i ll
that under a high protective tariff.
