Leading elite. 1 the doors FREE TRADE IV PRACTICE, It isan industrial fact that agricultural depression becomes na- tional depression, The day of miraculous manna is past, aud no sustenance can now be had for the picking. Labor is the only al. chemist tl 8 soil into clothing, food, shelter, comfort aul art This continent was rich only in raw material when the puritan immigrant landed at Plymouth roc valier first ruffled the waters of the James river in Vi a. very 4 reial palace in th iti of rail, and every message-wire every shock of wheat, every sphere of cheese or incasement of butter, is labor crystal ized into a new shape. The diversity of this force, its interehan ability from one shape to another, and its surplusage in exchange for other labor, have made this country a wonder pr to itself and the world. Any industrial policy that eases the lines of labor and makes its every motion the more productive in beneficent results is a national good. If the free-trade doctrine of abject foreign labor cost of goods he the best for the people, because the cheapest, then free trade is right uad should be carried to its cd sion. Wh. ine iron at all? Why every line anchester? Why not buy all our rails in Liver. porate all our salt on the English sea-board, import coal from Europe and Ne Scotia, take the tariff of twe lars per ton from Canadian hay, the fifteen cents from Canadian potatoes, the ten cents on bar- ley, the twenty cents on wheat, the eight cents on hops, and the four cents on butter, and get our supplies where nature, below ground and above ground. is lavish and labor at the lowest? If the world on the outside is hungry, is it not humanity to throw down the protectiv fences that guard our fields of labor, and let the herd in, even if this philanthropy starves our own stock? The greatest land-working peoples are the Russi d the Hindoo, yet they are the earth's paupers. Being the least pro- portion homeconsumers, they are among the lu t contribu: tors to the grain markets of the world, Their scant industries with labor (low priced because d, so cheaply fed, and more cheaply clothed) m consumption of the fruits of the farm the very lightest. If free wool cheapen the market for our fleece, and will (this is the theory) enable us to find a market for the woven wool, why is it this does not hold good of cotton? Cotton bears no tariff, and is of our own growth, yet where is the market for our looms, inst this same cotton carried across the sea to foreign mills, where, with their cheaper capital and cheaper workmen, it is returned here, over riding the tariff and deluging our own market? If free trade be good, the broader it is the better. Why not lessen our own mines, close our manufactories, increase the number of our farms, and m: the American laborer the serf, not the self-selected laborer, of the world? This would be free trade to its ultimate, This would be the Democratic blizzard, so hopefully prayed for, that would exhaust us all, a It WILL be found, we suspect, that Mr. Blaine’s health is ample for any small or extraordinary eme -.
