TIIK TAHIFK AND THE FAKMfcR. A Pennsylvania Democrat write tho Lonisville Courier-Journal for information upon tho following point: "1. How doc tbe tariff affect the grain farmers as compared with the cotton grower! "2. IIow are tariff rebates regos latcd! "3. What articles of trade, eith er prod need on tb 3 farm or manu factured, can be sold in the English market cheaper than in the Amer ican market! I mean American goods." To these interrogation! Courier-Journal makes foil unrefutable replj as follows: 1. The tariff affects grain the and far mers and cotton growers alike in this, that it robs both. It is true that there is a tariff on core, wheat and oats, on the pretense of pro tecting tbem; but they need no protection, because they are ex ported in large quantities and sold in competition with the grain of all other countries. Whenever a commodity can .be exported In quantities, it is, because it is pro duced more cheaply here than it is abroad. In the last fiscal year we exported 157,000,000 bushels of wheat, worth f 161,000,000 besides 15,000,000 barrels of floor, worth 155,000,000 ; also 75,000,000 bush els of corn, worth $41,000,000; and nearly three billion pound of cotton, worth $258,000,000. We were enabled to do this because these commodities were cheaper In tbe United States than In the countries ta which the were aeot; tbe price abroad, loss freight, commission aad other charge, be ing the price': realited for.;, them her?. Jt Je nonsense to talk .of protecting cheap - goods against those that are dearer; by the na tnral taws of trade commodities seek the markets where prices sre best. Cotton is on tbe free list, while wheat is nominally j rotccted by a duty of twentr-fite cents a buehe'; bot cotton is as fft dually protected by its cheapness as wheat, and neither is protected by the tariht. Where the robbery comes in is in the tax on tbe good which far mers receive for their grain and cotton. We sent abroad last year, in round numbers, $800,000,000 worth of tbe prod net of agricul ture of all kinds. What did we get in return! Did we get oar pay in gold! No; we exported more gold and silver than we imported. We had to take foieign merchant dido in exchange, and on all duti able goods tbe tariff exacted a duty of nearly 50 per cent. Thus, ot the $161,000,000 worth of wheat exported, the farmer, if paid iu dutiable goo Is, .would get back only about $110,000,000 worth, the remainder being ncceeary to pay thedjtior. It is true that all im ports are not dutiable; but it is also true that tbe farmers pay to domes tic manufacturers much higher prices for goods obtained from tbem than similiar goods would cost abroad; so that a reduction of one third irora tbe purchasing power of our agricultural exports docs not by any means represent tbe ex action which the tariff makes of the farmer. 2. When imported material is used in the manufacture of an ar ticle, 99 per cent of the duties paid on such material is refunded when the article is exported. 3. Many agricultural imple ments, sewing machines, and many other articles, are sold abroad at lower prices than at borne, This has been donied, but it ha been proved beyond question; and some protectionists admit and defend it as entirely proper. Tie rebate of duties on imported material contri butes to render this pot libit; but it also happens iu the case of ar. tide on which no rebate is paid, because high tariffs enable tbe manufacturer to exact excessive profits at home, while abroad, where the tariff gives him no ad vantage, he is compelled to take i reasonable" profit. Whj Weaver Retire. The following editorial on this subject appeared in -the Atlanta ContUtutto of jot Sunday t "General Weaver ha retired lrom the campaign in Georgia, leaving severs dates to. be filled, and disappointing large numbers of Democrats who are anxious to exhibit their enthusiasm. The exense which General Weaver gives for refusing to visit the point where ho has been advertised to peak is plausible enough under the circumstances, but it la far from being tbe true one. The real trouble with General Weaver, and the trne reason why he baa canceled bis engagement, to Georgia and other boutbern State is that he hu been made a victim of a groat deception. . We do not know who is responsible for this, but it is unquestionably the fact that General Weaver came to Georgia firmly believing that the woods wtre fairly swarming with third party people, and that all that was necceatary to get them In shape for tweepfng the State was a tew resounding stamp ora tions. But what ate tbe facts! In Ware county, of which Wsy cross is the eai4tal there are not more than twenty-five third party men certainly not -enough i to give General Wearer a sympathetic audience. Yet be was advertised to rpeak at Waycroat by the third party manager, and did speak there. lie spoke at Albany, and jet there are not half a dozen third party voters in tkraghertj county. There if, proportion ate ly, tbe same stale of affairs wbere ever General Weaver has ap peared In Georgia. It Is trne, there have been some very disa greeable examples of hoodlum ism at some of tbe meetings, and for these there is no exense whatever; but tbe main trouble tbe central difficulty has been the fact that the audiences General Weaver has been compelled to face were not only unsympathetic but overwhel ming antogrnitic, and no public speaker or candidate tor office can go through such an experience with any degree of comlort or saU isfacti n We have no doubt that word went forth to General Weaker from Georgia that he Third party was itiong and vigorous here, and that all it needed here to cmplia; size its vatality was a li:t!e reach ing here and there from i's Presi dential c indidate General Wea ver's icirem-nt rhows that- his eves arc open 1 1 the tine situation. The bottoi.i had tell out of tho third party movement before he responded to the call ot tho third party leadeis here. Whether these leaders hare deceived therr selves, or whether they really un derstood the situation in Georgia, we will not pretend to esy, hnt-we dokuow that their pueidential candidate has no longer any doubt about it. Whateve criticism he has to make ehould fall on the leader who haye entrapped him iuto making a barren and an un necessary campaign in a quarter where the the Third party had ao strength at all. Ooeofthe charHc'eristics of the people ot Georgia is tho conserva tism that is tho remit of common sense. This characteristic shows Ueelf in a thousand different direc tions, in their enterprises, in thei' society, literature which is pe' iarlr and distinctly their o.. and in their foliticd. In common with the people of the whole conn try they have sull'.red fr m the disastrous results of Republican das legiolation, but nothing could be more foolish or futile than the idea that they will turn on them telwt, their wives mid their chil dren and on their best interests, merely because tlicy have been unable to secure tho repeal of the vicious laws enacted by the Repub licans. The farmers of Georgia hare done a good deal if grumbling and tho Constitution has helped them to do it, but tho ide of di viding tho Democracy and per petuating the party tiiftt has op pressed them never entered their minds. The consequence s that the moment they undeNto d what the third party really meant, tl e bottom fell completely out of the movement" Ho ! For Chicago, -ON THE Installment Plan!
