, Tin* two democratic alleged farmer's alllianee memlaws of the Illinois Legislature, last Wednesday carried out their .long planned intentions of voting for Palmer -for—C . iS. Senator. ;t!!iltlms aocom» plislted his election. The election of so ultra a democrat as Palmer "'•!! r< :.!iy hr a good thing for the Republicans of Illinois, tor it will havf a f. e.deiicy to open the eyes of Bepublicaifi-frftfners as to what the real objects and results of a farmers’ movement in politics are —namely to help the Democrats every time. The only feature of the whole matter we are not quite satisfied with, is that the Republicans did .not vote for honest old Dick Oglesby, first, last and all the time.

Tin Plate Mills.

The following is a list of tin plate mills in the United States, now turning out tin plate, or rapidly approaching completion for that purpose: Norton Bros’ tin can factory, Chicago: St Louis Stamping Co., Niedringhans, President Britton Bolling Mill Co., Clever land, Ohio. United States Tin Plate Co, Demmler, Pa. Canonsburg Iron and Steel Co., Canonsburg, Pa. ' Pittsburg Stamping Mill Co., Pittsburg, Pa. , Mathai, Ingram & Co., Baltimore, Md. Pennsylvania JSteel Co., Steelton, Md. Tin Plate and Steel Co., Savernake, Virginia. Ashby Gap Tin Plate Co., Ashby Gap, Ya. Somers Bros, Brooklyn, New York. California Tin Plate Co., San Francisco. The Lewis Bros. Tin Plate Co., Joliet 111. Seven other companies are talked of, but we have given the location of a sufficient number to satisfy the agents of the English trust that their occupation will soon be gone. Give the credit to McKinley.

STAND BY THE HOME MARKET.

Cheapness is the bait with which free trade attorneys seek to allure the great industrial classes to aid in destroying the home market by smothering it with importations from abroad. Between this time and the next national election voters will have opportunity lor investigating this proposition and all that its fulfillment implies. No question . can arise in connection with the election of law makers in the proper decision of which our people have so much at stake. Everything that we eat as well as all that we wear is the product of labor. In providing many of these labor constitutes ninety per cent of their cost, while the average will be in excess of three-

fourths. Keeping this fact in ] mind, the man who depends upon his lal>or for his living needs no college professor to inform him that wages would have to standthe greater share of any reduction in cost to comsumers. There can be nd escape from this alternative. * - Whv~ can European countriesproduce same-lines of goods cheaper than they can be made in Unit-, ed States? Not because they can procure tin* necssary raw materials required in their manufacture so much chcnpefy"bat, because labor can bo had there for one-quarter to two-thirds the price paid here in the same lines. It requires cheap labor to produce rhoap goods in Europe, and cheaper labor will be necssary in this- country to producecheaper goods here, except as --this end may lie secured through improvements in machinery equally open to both countries. It is from -this point of view that the issue between Protection and free foreign -trade assumes an especial interest for the millions of industrial voters to whom free trade attorneys are now so earnestly appealing. If the prices of edible products art- to lit- reduced,

the remunation of the farmer must be lessened. On the other hand, if clothing and household goods are-to lie suppled cheaper, the work involved in their preparation must be done by somebody who will be content with lower wages than art-now paid, if those now working in mines and shop t s and factoriesin the United Stales will not consent to this arrangement there will soon be little work for them to do, for free trade will place many lines of goods upon the shelves of our dealers for less money than the same goods can now be produced for under the scales of wages paid in all the leading industries by United States employers. All of which is well known to the free trade attorneys, who are careful to keep the fact to themselves, while drumming up votes for their favorite policy. Meantime those who are their proposed victims had best not close their eyes to. facts patent to all who choose to look for them.

Tariff Pictures Here is another one abqut the home prices of cereals: Oats in eight farming States are worth 18c. per bushel. In eight manufacturing states 35c. per bushel. 94 per cent, higher in manufacturing States. Cripple the manufacturing States by voting for free trade, Mr. Agriculturist, and cut off the home market for your products. New York Press. i__ PR AISE FOR THE McKINLEY BILL. i The benefit of the reduction of the duty on sugar will probably be felt immediately after April 1. On that date raw sugar and refined grades up to a certain standard will be admitted free of duty. In anticipation of this event and in order to give the consumer the immediate benefit of the decreased duty the treasury department is admitting the raw sugar in hand to bonded refineries where; it can be refined and be ready to be replaced on the retail market as soon as the law allows it The standard sugar used is the granulated, and according to a New York grocer, the wholesale price of that grade will be reduced from the present price to 6| cents per pound to 54 6r 4£ cents per pound after April 1. The benefit of this reduction will be to the consumer as Claus Spreckles and European refineries will not allow the American Refining company to get the sole benefit of the reduction. In 1890 this country consumed 1,522.731 tons of sugar or about 544 pounds for each person. The saving effected by the duty will therefore equal at least one dollar for every man, woman and child in he country,' or about $79,000,000. Fresh Graham flour and fresh com meal at Dexter A Cox.

ALL HAIL RECIPROCITY!

' .g- • ■ The President’s proclamation swinging wide open the door of “commerce between Brazil 'and the United States is the beginning of a movement which will make every dollar invested in North American manufactures worth $2 and lift our laboring classes into a , greate r prosperity than- they have /.yet dreamed of- The simple fact is that tin- tmpic.nl countries, are . now buying fro in transatlantic- nationsTdmost everything and from us almost nothing, and the tide ought to turn, and the .tide will i turn. ' Ln a recent year five billion, three hundred and sixty-nine million dollars worth of goods manufactured in the United States, and only 2 per c(.,nfo±aken.by:Jioreigu markets! ~ Is it not a marvel that American manufactures are not as dead as the proverbial door nail? My only wonder is that nine-tenths of the manufacturers have not gone into bankruptcy and ninety-nine one-hundredths : of the factory hands have not gone I into starvation or the almshouse; aud it will be worse if the battle | is to go on between Lowell spindq les hero and Manchester spindles : there, between foreign merchants I who want tariiis down and Ameri—--1 can merchants who want tariffs up. There is no relief for ns in j the markets of Europe, andirhere j with bo none until

Moons shall wax and wane no more. This nation to-day is like a silly dry goods merchant who stands behind the counter haggling with I small customer about three j yards iff tape, when there-are at j the counter, impatiently waiting, three princesses wishing to purchase their bridal tron sseans. May God arouse this Nation from its .commercial idiocy! In South America are regions nearly three times as large as the “United States, without manufactories, without woolen goods, without agricultural implements, without telegraphs, without teleifiiones, without shoes, without sewing machines, without ten thousand things that we have and they must have. Not tens of thousands, but millions of consumers. Where shall they get their supplies,? They are ‘getting them from another hemisphere 3,000 miles away, and we at their next door, are buried under a surplus of those very things. They are able to trade with us for their sugars, and coffees, and spices, and fruits, and valuable woods, and a thousand other commodities. « We need theirs as much as they need our products. But look,

and then hang your heads at the statement that, while our -next door neighbors, the southern republics, and Brazil and neighboring colonies import six hundred and seventy-five million dollars’ worth of goods a year, only one hundred and twenty-six million dollars.’ worth are from the United States—sl26,ooo,ooo out of $675,000,000 —only one-fifth of the trade ours. European nations taking fheTr Tour fingers and leaving us the poor thumb. The sisj ter republics on the American 1 continent, with a foreign commerce amounting to $428,000,000, trade with us the feeble and paltry sum of $63,000,000. There is nothing but a comparative ferry | between this country aud the j West Indies, while there are raging seas and long voyages between them and other continents, yet they import one hundred and sixteen million dollars’ worth of goods, and only thirty-one million dollars, worth comes from us. Now all this is going speedily to be changed, and it is going to be the solution of the communistic question, of the over-production and under- consumption question, and nearly all other questions. It is going to set all the mills on the Merrimac, and the Connecticut and the Susquehanna, and the Chattphooche, and the Alabama running day and night with double set of hands, and calling for ten factories where we have one, and putting all the men out of employ into work at good wages, and is going to change this story of dull times into a prosperity which will roll oh in full tide until the Mississippi loses its way to the Gulf of Mexico. They are soon coming to trade with us, Bolivia, Peru, Paraguay, Venezuela, Salvador, Nicaragua, Columbia, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Brazil and the brunet West Indies to meet the blond and smiling United States. Hail! Marriage day of North and South. While the pessimists have been been hunting up the burial service to read at the death of American Commerce, and the stops of the organ were being pulled out for the “Dead March” in Saul, I, an j optimist, both by natnje and by grace, take up in anticipation the , bright covered wedding liturgy, 1 and as the blond North takes

the brunette South by the hand, saying; “with all my worldly good I thee endow,” I cry, “Whom God hath joined together let neither foreign despotism nor American demagogisin ever put asunder.” Then let all the organs, andchoirs, and orchestras make - everything, ■from the Montreal ice palaces to the halls of the Montezumas, quake under the rolling thunders of i lu-grand march of North and Smith American progress. Tn anticipation 1 nail tm the front door of the Nation an .. rusemeht; • Wanted, one hundred thousand men to build South American railroads, as long as from here' to San Francisco. Wanted, five thousand telegraph operators. Wanted £20,000,000 worth of dry goods and hardware from New York city. Wanted, all the clocks you can make-at New Haven; and all the brains you can spare from Boston, and the all bells you can mold at Tro}', and all the McCormick reapers yon can fashion at Chicago, ainTall the hams you can turn out at Cincinnati, and all the Railroad iron you can send from Bloomington and Pittsburg.
