Tin a s n THE TARIFF AND THE FAKM ERS. KXTUACT8 FUOM A SrEKCII IN CONGEESS I5Y HON. R. Q. MILLS, OF TEXAS I have here a table that I have made out from the figure of the val ues of farm products given by the statistician of the Agricultural De partment. I talse the year 1881, when we had the largest exportation of farm products we have ever had We exported that year 730,000,000 worth of agricultural products. We made enormous exportations of breadstuffs and provisions, and the prices went to the highest point. There was a small crop that year. We did not have so large a crop as we had had for several years before. Those two causes conspired to in crease prices ; because when you de crease the supply and increase the demand, the force is doubled that expends itself on the increase of prices. The farm price of corn in 18S1 was G3.G cents; this year it is 28.3. The farm price of wheat that year was 119.3 ; this year, G9.8 The farm price of oats was 40 4 ; this year, 23 cents. The farm price o barley was 93 3 ; this year is is 45.7. The farm price of buckwheat was 86.5 this yoar it is 51.8. The farm price of hay was 811.42 a ton ; llr's year it is 7.88. The farm price of cotton was 10 cents per pound ; this year it is 8.3. The farm price of tobacco was 9.G per pound; this year it is 7.1 per pound. The total value at present of all these crops is $1,940,9GD,G87, ac cording to the reckoning of the Agri cultural Department. Let us tee, now, what they would have been worth if we had had this year the exportation of 1881. and, consequents ly, the prices of 1881. Our corn would have been worth 1, 343,000,000 instead of 8597,000, 000 ; our wheat would have been worth 8585,000,000 instead of 8342, 000,000 ; our oats would have been worth 8348,000,000 instead of 171, 000,000 ; our rye would have been worth 820,000,000 instead of 812, 000,000 ; our bailey would have been worih 852,000,000 instead 827,000, 000,; our buck wheat would have been worth 810,000,00 instead of 80,000, 000 ; our potatoes, would have been worth 818?,000,000 instead of'881, 000,000 ; our ha would have been worth 8551,000,000 insead of 8367, 000,000 ; our cotton would have been worth 8354,000,000 instead of 8293, 000,000 ; and our tobacco would have been worth 854,( 00,000 instead of 840,000,000. The losses on these several crops, leaving out provisions, amount to 1,570,029, US, as before stated. Mr. Turner, of Gc-orgea. Within what period? Mr. Mills. Within one year, the lossofthi-; year. If the crop of 1889. the largest crop that we ever produced, had brought the prices rf the crop of 188 1 the total value to the forme's of tht; United States would luive leen 81.570,000,000 more than it is with our checked im portation. Now, my friend on the other side Mr. McKinley, speaking awhile ago about the home market, said that it consumed about 95 per cent, of cur product. Of our agricultural products the home consumption is about 85 per cent. We depend up on a foreign market for the con sumption of 15 per cent. We des pend upon the home market for 98 per cent, and the foreign market for about 2 per cent, of our manufact ures. We depend upon the foreign market for the consumption of about 10 per cent, of the products of our mines and about the same propor. tion of our forestry. So that the home market is the main dependence for the consumption of all the pro ducts of American labor. What, then, should we do ? We ought to make that home market just as effi cient as possible, so as to consume as much as possible of the produc tions of American labor. Suppose we should seud a tax collector around among the people and take out of the pockets of every man in the country all the money he ha;;, what would our homo market be worth ? Suppose that the GG,000, 000 of people that we have in this country to-day had every dollar they possessed taken cut of their pockets, how many yards of calico would we sell ? How many yards of woolen goods would we sell? How many agricultural imp'emeuts would you sell? How much of the seven bil lious of manufactured products that are now sold and consumed in the United States would we sell ? None, of course. We sell to the American home market just precisely in proportion to the ability of the home market, to buy, do we not ? Every one knows that is true, Now, on the other hand, if some one was to go around this evening and give to everv one of our GG,000,090 of people 8100, that $100 would be there to represent 8100 worth of wants, and it would create them just as soon as the peo ple were put in possession of it. Just as soon as people have the abil ity to satisfy their wants the wants spring up and are felt. Every one would want more clothes for himself or his family, or he would want to improve his house or to t"o something else that would require the expenditure of the mon ey, and that money would be ex pended in the home market for the employment of domestic laboi. Theiefore our policy should be to do everything we can to increase the value of all the products in the Unit ed States, to put just as many dol lars in the pockets of the people as we can. If our ports were closed by block ade it would only shut out about 8350,000,000 of foreign manufac tures. If they were thrown wide op2n they would only permit the entry of about 5 pet cent of our home consumption. If the ports are closed they could only supply the 8350,000,000 now supplied by the foreigner. If they are open and the foreigner brings in 8600,000,000 and takes his market to that extent he will bring with him such increas ed prices of agricultural products as will distribute 81,500,000,000 among the farmers, 95 per cent of which will be spent for domestic goods, and that will start prosperity in every branch of industry, and that is the policy which Democrats advocate. Sometimes, as was the case after our war, importation exceeded ex portations. From 18G3 to 1873 our imports exceeded the exports every year, and for the ten years the ex cess was over a thousand millions. Then from 187G to 1SS7 the exports exceeded the imports every year, and the aggregate for the period exceeded fifteen hundred millions. But from the beginning of the Government down to the pres ent time they have been dependent on each other, and last year one was 8745,000,000 and the other 8742, 000,000. Exports pay for imports and imports fur exports, and when one is checked the other is checked. I ask my friends, if we are not paid for our exports- by imports, in what are we paid ? It can not be money. It must be something. We have been exporting told and silver for forty years, just as v. e have been wheat and cotton, and our exports of the precious metals have been many hundred millions in excess of our imports of the same. Then, I repeat the question, if we refuse to take the products of other loud tries for our exports, in what are we to be paid ? There is nothing with which we etui be paid, stud the ex port must s.top when the import does, and whet; this bid passes, Kansas farmers must piJe moro corn on their tires or more Democratic votes in their bi lid-boxes. The course which our friends on the other side are pursuing is calcu lated to intensify the sufferings of the country, to concentrate the wealth made by the sweat and toil of the laboring people into the hands of a comparatively few persons a process which has been going on for the last twenty years. Nowhere else in the world has there been such an instance of the concentration of the wealth made by the sweat and toil of a people into the hands of twenty five or thirty thousand persons. The startling figures weie given some time ago by a distinguished citizen of New York to show that more than one-half of t e wealth of this wtiole country is owned by less than twenty-five thousand" of its sixty six million people. Such a thing could never have oc curred except as one of the pernicious consequ ences of this tariff that compels the con sumer to pay to protected producers two or three times the cost of the necessaries of life two or three times as, much as he would have been required to pay for the manufactur ed articles if it had not been for the tariff. Why can we not raise the blockade, open out ports, and engage in for eign commerce ? Our frinds tell us about the great growth of our do mestic commerce, and that is true. It has grown. But why not have a prosperous growth iu both foreign and domestic commerce? The gentleman from Ohio Mr. McKinley asked was- the foreign market better than the home market? Who was ever fool enough to an swer that it was? The answer ihat the Democrats give is that the home and the foreign market is better than lb e home market. Applause on the Democratic side. We want them both. What have you done for the farmers who are paying tribute to your higli tariff today ? In 1820, about the time that we started out on this tariff crusade, we were promised that we were goiug to have manufactures right by the side of every farmer in the country ; that we were going to bring the consumer and the producer together, and that we were going to annihilate middlemen, and going to furnish a home market at the very eloor of the farmer. We then exported of our agricultural products 80 per cent, of the entire exports of the country. In Alabama it is made for less than $9 a ton, and in Tennessee also, I believe. Yet our people are pay ing from 818 to 820 a ton for pig iron, although we can produce it as cheaply as it can be produced any where in the world. With our fur naces working day and night, and turning out an enormous prodnr i of pig-iron, we find when there is a large demand that they can not pro duce enough to satisfy that demand, and the deficit has to be made up by importation. That is one case. Sugar is another. You can raise some sugar in this countrj-, but not enoughto meet the demand. Now, look at 3'our import statements and take cotton goods, for instance. You will find a certain class of hosieiy as to which I was criticised a good deal two years ago becau-e I stated, and stated truly, that certain kinds of hosiery were not made and could not be made in the United States. A witness appeared before the Commit tee ori Ways and Means, whose testi mony is in print, and who stated that these goods were made in Germany by a secret machine. Whether that is true or not I do not know, but he so stated. He said that he had sent a very bright, intelligent young fellow iu hij em ploy over there and he tried to see the machine, but they would cot permit him to see it. But whether that be true or not, your import statements show from five to eight million dollars of that kind of stock ings imported into this country every year. Why do we import them ? We had a duty of 35 percent, upon those stockings before 1&83, but the manu facturers of hosiery in the United States came and said: "Give us a dutj' of 4 j per cent, and that will enable us to bring that machine over here and naturalize the manufacture in this country.' A duty of 40 per cent, was given instead of 45 per cent, but the importation still went on. O in- fiiendj here have heard the same appeal them a tlnty and they have given ol from GO to 80 per cent. They do not mind the y.ercents. They ar? playing for the grand game of checking importation, and there fore they have put upon a ciasij of cotton stockings tbich can not be made in this country a duty of GO to 80 per cent., but it will be found that notwithstanding that duty those stockings will still come in a; d will i:ot be mde here. Again, take cotton embroideries, nobody makes them here. We "-can not nf ford to take the time to m.nke them. Our workingmou are better employ- eu. xne people wno mate tnose embroideries get the poorest wages. The goods are male, I believe, in damp, dark cellars. However, I do not know whether that is true or not, because I have never been across the ocean. Every year five or six million dol lars' worth of these embroideries come to this country. With all the heavy duty which we impose" upon them we can not make a yard of them iu this country, because our people, A-ho are earning a dollar or a dollar and a half a day, can not af ford to work at embroidery at 50 cent3 a day. They find that they can buy their embroideries cheaper than they can make them. They find it cheaper to work at something else and earn the money required to buy their embroideiy, and that is the true law of trade. You may look over your import statements from one end to the oth er and you will find that the goods you are importing do not, as a rule, come in competition with goods that are produced here. We can Veep out the foreign goods. We can compel our people to use something else. We could cheek the importation of coffee, prohibit it entirely, and com pel the people to as we had to do down in the Confederacy about twenty five years ago to take corn and burn it, make a black water out of it, and sweeteu that and call it coffee and drink it. But we did not like it, and could not -'naturalize" it, and whenever we had the chance to shake a newspaper at our friends on the other side we always gave them some tobacco and got some 'sure enough" coffee. Laughter. Now, I say you might prohibit the importation of coffee by putting the duty high enough. So you may ex-' elude these Zante currants, which are crown on an island in the Gulf of Corinth; you can not raise them herp, but you can keep them out and encourage people eat blackberries instead. Laughter.J You can foster the great blackberry home industry. Perhaps the com mittee thought, by putting a protect ive duty on cabbages you can make people eat ca bages in place of these currants. Laughter. Now, Mr. Chairman, here is the condition the American people ae iu. We have gone on and developed all branches of our industries until we can to-day produce in our manu factures, in nine months, all that our people can consume in a year; until we can produce millions more of ag ricultural products than our people can consume; until we can produce in our mines (gold and silver ex cepted) 15 per cent, more" than cut people can c usume. until we can produce in lumber and other forestry products 15 per cent, more than ail our people can consume. Now, the question is : iYhat do yon propose to do about that 1 You have got the home market. You haye sold every dollar of your man ufactures that you can sell, every dollar's worth of your agricultural and your mine products, every dol lar of your forestry protlucts, and yet you have got a surplus on hand and that surplus is increasing just in proportion to the increase of popu lation. Now, what do you propose to do? The Democratic way is to let down the bars and let these things go out to other people who want them, and to tike from those other people in exchange things they elo not want and that we do We would take the duty off wool. We would take all the wool produced in the Argentine Confederation and Australia and everywhere in the world we would manufacture it, send it abroad, and sell it. We woufd take all the ra products from every part of the globe We would give con stant employment to all our people. But friends on the other side pro pose an answer to this argument. They have discoviieu something new to tell to the manufacturers and to tHe working people. They say "We propose to give you a drawback cn, everything, except to the extent of 1 per cent., which will cover the cost to the Government; we will let you make your importations of materials, and when you send out yoar manu factured articles you can withdraw from the Treasury the dutj- that you advanced on the materials.'' That looks all right, but let us see wheth er it is so or not. A few months ago, while in the State of Massachusetts, I went into one of the largest manufacturing miils, I suppose, in the old Common wealth; it was located at Lawrence. I saw there a hall larger, I think, than this, containing a large num ber of mills which had been imported from England. I asked the gentle mm in charge what those mills had cos!. Mj- recollection is that he said 8800 apiece. I asked him what was the life of one of those mills. I think he said eight or nine years The duty was 45 per cent on every mill. Now, I want somebody to tell mi wheiber a manufacturer in Massa chusetts, if he had everything else free, could import his mills from England, paying 45 per cent, duty, and then manufacture goods in com petition with anybody outside of the United Slates ? Do not gentlemen know of course they do that in the markets of the world a differs ence of half a cent on the unit of cpiiantity is sufficient to, turn the scales? A man who can effer goods at half a cent less on a pound or a yard or a dozen of anything than his competitor takes the market and holds it. If we import coa we must pay a tax upon it, while the English man, the Frenchman and the Ger man gets his coal free. Theie can not be any rebate on the coal; the coal is consumed in generating the steam that drives the machinery, and iike the tax on the machinery, can not be exported; and the cost must be charged up to the consumer in the product. The case is the same with the oil that lubricates the machinery And thousands ot gallons are used in manufacture. Mr. Chairman, there is but one way for this country to enter suc cessfully into the great contest in the markets of the world, a contest that awaits us; and when she has the wisdom to enter into it properly she will take the prize; that is, to lay aside, in the language of Scripture, "Every weight that doth beset us." Applause. I have here a statement showing, from the reports of our consuls, that Europe exports one thousand million dollars' worth of textiles every year. This illustrates the great trade they have been doing. While we have baen doing a business of $24 a head, they are doing a business of 100 to 190 a head. SUB TREASURY FOR PRODUCE Further Argument for the M eas ure Demanded et the Farmers' Al liaxce. Washington, May 15 The hearing of the Farmers' Alliance representa tives was continued before the Ways anrl Means Commttee this morning. Mr. Liviuston, the national lecturer of the organization, said that the farmer had been told that a proper adjustment of the tariff aud of the silver question was all that was nec essary for the farmers' relief. The tariff had nothing to do with tHe measure recommended by the Alli ance. The tariff fixed the price of the farmers's purchases; the Sub Treasury bill fixed the price at which he sold his goods. The Alliance re presentees had talked plainly,strait frem the shoulder. They asked demanded (he was not ture about terms) that Congress do what it could to pass the Sub Treasury bill. Fifty-eight homes farmers'- had been sold at auction in Connecticut in one day this week. Tte farmers wanted relief; they knew not how to get it. They had about nffade up their minds to let partisan politics alone, for a while at least. Mr. Livingston quoted President Lincoln's prophecy that corporations would be enthroned, that the prop erty would be concentrated, and that the republic itself would be over thrown. Thank Go,d, the last pre diction hed not been fulfilled. But the others had been. One twentieth of the people of this country owned three fifths of the property. He also quoted Garfield, Jefferson, and Calhoun, and said that what they had recommmended was just what the llliance asked. If Congrats re fused to approve the Sub Treasury plan, then let it remove the restric tions heading in the national bank ing system. The farmers would care nothing about any combinations and concentration of money if they could hold their crops in aub-treasuries, and were not compelled, as at present, to sell them at stated times, in the South. He zould thus escape ihe speculator. Pass theJSab Treas ury bill and the day of speculation in crops would be dene away with, and the proelucer and the consumer would be brought together. Sixteen millions would build all the ware houses that the Alliance wanted. Neyer more than a third of the cot ton crop would be warehoused. When the certificates issued on ihat crop came they would meet the need of the wheat crop, and then the to bacco ciop, and so on. There would not be excessive changes in the vol ume of the currency. Mr. Flower asked why the wire houses were to be used only for oats, wheat, corn, tobacco, and cot ton. Why not put iu the pot wool and rice and cheese and pork, &c? Mr. Livingston replied that these otCer staples were protected by a high taaiff, 75 per cent, for wool alone. In conclusion he said that if the committee thought that the laud ed basis was the best, if they could not accept the crop basis, let them put it in. Do something to relieve the farmer. Report the bill to the House in some shape, so that it could be acted upon: Don't make it a question of tariff or of politics, but let the bil' stand on its merits. A SAD CONDITION. I suffered for five years with the worst form of Blood Poison, during which time I was attended by the best physicians I could find, and trieel numbers of proprietory medi cines without any beneficial results. I continued to grow worse all this time, until my whole system was destroyed by the vile disease; my tongue and throat having great holes caused by it. I then commenced ta king Swift's Specific (S. S. S.), and in a few months 1 was entirely cured, and to this great medicine do I at tribute my recovery. This was over two years ago, and I have had no return, or any effects of the dis ease since, and my skin is today as smooth and clean as anybody's. Wm. SOWERS, Covington, Ohio. BOILS ALL OYER HIS BODY. Six botyles of Swift's Specific (S S. 3.) cured me of a horrible attack of Boils that had broke out all over my body, and from which I could get no relief. I feel that if it was not fat your great medicine I would be in my grave today. W. J. MITCHELL, Marion, Ala Treatise on Blood and Skin Dis eases mailed freee. SWIFT SPECIFIC CO., Atlanta, Ga.

In ihe Methodist Episcopal Church this morning, after the usual exercises, the Sunday School Committee, through its chairman, T. J. McGii der, of Baltimore, submitted a re port, in which it is stated that the past four years have been the most prosperous in our history. The iu crease in our Sunday school member ship and in the circulation of our pe riodical literature is very encoura ging, and the relation of our Sunday schools io the church is generally becoming more satisfactory every year.

Richmond Dear Sir For the benefit of persona suffering from Chronic Liver Complaint, I beg leave to call their attention to your vegetable preparation, "Nolandine." I regard it as a "cholagogue," combining also tonic and renovating properties, and in this respect differing from any medicine I have ever taken. The effects of your "Nolandine" in my case, has been on the liver and secretions identical with calomel; at the same time, entirely free from nauseating and debili tating consequences following the use of that mineral. I very cheerfully recommend you "No landine" for the diseases enumerated on your circulars, and am convinced from jx rsonal benefit derived from its use, that it must become a standard family medi cine. I am very respectfully yours, JOHN AY. CARD WELL. For Sale by T. R ABERNETHY & CO., Druggist, Newton, N. C. j J
