Springtield, Sarpa Co., Neb., July 22.—To the Editor: Ihave read in the Times the debate among farmers on the tariff question, and as Tam a farmer, was a soldier, also one of seventeen who voted the republican ticket in this county in 1856, Iwould like to make a few remarks on the subject. Now. in my opinion, both sides are too fond of citing certain in- stances and from these drawing con- clusions that I think have little or nothing to do with the case. For instance, if Ihave a large corn crib full of corn and a good many fatrats it does not follow that I am under great obligations to the rats for my good crib of corn, even admitting I grant that the rats have got fat at my expense, but that the rats have that they are home consumers. been any great benefit to me I deny. That Mr. Manufacturer has got fat by charging me 40 cents for a 25-cent jack-knife I grant; but that my pocket book has got fat by the trans- action I deny. I also grant that Mr. Manufacturer, by making such trades, has more money to pay his hired hands higher wages. But Ill tell you what does follow—that I have less to pay my hired hands, whether I get them for less or not. It seems to me that the corres- pondents have good memories when it suits them, and very bad ones when it does not suit them. Thus A tells us that when the republican or dem- ocratic party, as the case may be, was in power in such and such a year we had good times, but heinvariably forgets the two years before and the four years after that were hard times. This nonsense we are fond of calling “history,” or of quoting as “statistics.” In fact a person, and especially a politician, can play any tune he chooses out of that good, useful old fiddle “statistics,” espec- ially if he has farmers to listen to him that believe that they are mak- ing money by giving 50 cents for a 25-cent knife. Now, to prove what I about the knife being true. I will cite you a few instances that came under my own observation. In the year of the centennial, in 1876, I went to England, and there I found I could buy American manufactured goods for one-half less than I could buy them at home. For instance, a Wheeler & Wilson sewing machine sold in England for $30; here the same thing sold at $85. In fact two of my nearest neighbors about that time raised corn, hauled it sixteen miles to the town of Omaha—the best market Nebraska has—and sold Sa nd of black hat while I was $12 to at that time $15 per month ed hands in Nebraska, and on a farm, farmers in Northum- berland, in the north of En Were paying for similar Wages to» hired hands from $17 to $20 per month. There at least 150 mechanics and laborers in the same ship from Philadelphia to Liverpool that I went in going abroad to seek employment. In fact, every one might remember about mechanics going from New York to Glasgow in that year. They could only get from $1 to $1.25 in New York, or even Chicago, while they got $2 in Glasgow and passage paid. Wil some one give me reasonable evidence what benefit it is to me to pay $2 extra per 1,000 on lumber? Such evidence would be thankfully received. Mere assumptions or as- sertions are not wanted; I get more of them than I can use. Will some one give me reasonable evidence why I, living on one side of a fence rais- ing corn, beef and pork, should pay a bounty out of the proceeds of these articles to a man on the other side of the fence that raises sheep or sugar cane? Suppose he does buy a large per cent of my produce; do not I buy a large per cent of his? Therefore, if he is a great benefit to me I must still be a greater benefit to him, and if I pay him for the ben- etits J receive from him why should he not pay me in proportion for the benefits he receives from me?

Ernptions, no matter how obstinate or potent, long standing. It is and costs but a trifle. ettective, 32 1yr Gen. James B. Weaver, whorepre- sents the labor element of the coun- try, expresses his opinion of Harri- son in the following interview with a New York Star reporter: “Mr. Harrison wili prove to be a very obnoxious candidate among the independent anti monopoly and la- bor elements of the country. He has been very offensive in language and attitude to the advocates of financial reform. Heis en record in his own State, declaring that the greenbackers were lunatics and fa- natics and ought to be in asylums and that any man who believes that the government of the United States could create money by fiat of the law was a d d fool.” He has been very hostile toward the striking laboring men, and I am reliably in- formed that, on the occasion of a strike in his state, he besought the the governor to call out troops to suppress the strikers, who had com- mitted no breach of the peace, and declared that if he were governor he would force them to go to work or shoot them down on the spot. He is the choice of Mr. Depew for pres- ident, and is a prominent railroad at- torney. Such a candidate is not likely to find much support among the laboring men and farmers in the country.” ‘The advance in the price of wheat which has recently taken place will be very acceptable to the American farmer. The shortagein the crop in Great Britain and France has been variously estimated from 80,000,000 to 100,000,000 bushels. None of this can be made up from the Indian supply, as the late crop in that re- gion has been smaller than the aver- age in recent years. The United States and Russia will be looked to it for 16 cents a bushel to pay for a similar sewing machine at $90. Woods’ combined reaper and mower in England was sold at $100; here the same implement is sold at $200. | In Liverpool, Eng.. I bought a silver watch chain for $2.50.
