The crop reports of the 'Agricultural Department are all any
reasonable person could hope for. But What arc the American
; farmers gohtg to do With 3^)00,000(buahelh of com or their 800,-
(KftOfiO bushels of wheat, or'kny of the long list df items of their
bountiful crops? With no European market, how can they dispose
v 'of‘their surplus Which is the fountain source of their prosperity?
Congress has been putting 'up a tariff wall around the United
States to keep European banuficturers from entering American
markets. This means the Exclusion of American agricultural prod
ucts'from European markets. However keenly Europe may need
American food its population cannot buy it unless its manufactur
ers can sell what they make. It must be a process of swapping. We
have htoe gold now that toe k now what to do with, So we don’t
want gold. Morovcr, European countries t&ve not got the gold if
we wanted it.
With an open European market this season’s crop would bring
full and complete prosperity to the American farmer, The sale of
American surplus products in foreign .markets would stabilise
prices In tbs home markets sad the farmer would again be prosper
ous and happy. But Congress won’t set It that way and the wolo-
gathcring farm bloc votes on the side Of the mofidpolies every time.
Instead of representing the farmers’ interest, 'fMjr seem bent on
doing everything detrimental to the farmer.
The Fotdney-McCumber tariff schedules have gone the limit
on protection madness. While' the country has been busy produc
ing the greatest crops in its history the Republican Congress has
been busy stopping up'the avenues which would make prosperity
available by destroying our markets. It is like a man having a fac-
