The contest is this time less a personal one than any that has occurred for many years. There is less excitement; less personality; but s thoughtful discussing and weighing of the great issueâ€"tsrifl' reform or high protection. The contest has this unusual interest for many outsidersâ€"and especial- ly for Canadiansâ€"that it is likely to deter- mine for some years to come the fiscal policy of the United States. A speedy chsnge would not follow if the democrats should win, as it takes at longer time under the Americnn system thsn under ours for public opinion to effect a change in govern mentsl policy; but the election of Cleve- land would undoubtedly under the cir- cumstsnces sound the death-knell of the system q high protection and trade embnrnssment embodied in the McKinley One would think that 30c. barley would sicken the average tory farmer with the N. P., but we suppose most of them would vote for the “old policy” again with an alacrity as cheerful as if they belonged to the red parlor brigade. This a great and an entertaining world; but one of the most entertaining spectacles is the cheerful fidelity of the farmers in voting for a policy that adds to their own burthens, takes money out of their pockets, narrows their markets and reduces the prices of what they have to sell. while at their expense it enriches the monopolists who combine to fix up the tariffs. and who rope in the farmer to their support in the name of the old policy or the old man, or the old flag, or some suchobsurdity. dam, and have seen their markets and their prices going from bad to worse almost every year. There is no certainty about anything except that the prices paid by the farmer for what he uses or consumes pours handsome revenues into the pockets of the red parlor men who have the inside track in the combinations that see about the tariff arrangements. else if the farmers would only support their policyâ€"their N. P., of Protection, Retaliation or Reciprocity. The farmers â€"too many of themâ€"believed in the extravagant promises of the tory politi- Barley in this district is selling down to from 300. to 35¢.

The tariff reform issued then. presented to the people by Cleveland, has had four years more discussion, and the interest in that discussion has‘ been intensified by the practical illustrations furnished by Mc- Kinleyism. Cleveland is stronger before the country, and the main issue has grown in strength and stature. Can Harrison do better than he did four years ago? On this point an independent American authority says: 'The republicans are on the defensive; Mr.Blaine sulks in his tent; Mr. Harrison takes no. part in the contest, and the republican campaign is the least enthu- siastic known, and election day is only five weeks away. The civil-service reformers who supported Harrison before are against him now, and what is of moreconsequence, men like Judge Gresham are hostile to the republican party because of its grow- ing plutocratic tendencies. Four years ago no Homestead labor Wars had taken place in the high, citadel of protection. and Andrew Carnegie did not find it more comfortable to live in Scotland than in America. New York is still a demo- cratic sore spot, yet New York as well as Massachusetts has been growing more and more democratic since 1883. The domes cratic South perhaps is somewhat shalt , yet in their fatuons force bill the repn licans gave their opponents protection against themselm” A- a- . .rr-a,r. The contest, it is generally admitted, wili be a very close one. “If the presi- dential election were decided by the popu- lar vote,” remarks the Springfield Repub- lican, “Mr. Cleveland would be almost sure of victory. He has never failed to lead all competitors in the grand poll of the people; he led Harrison many thous- ands even four years ago. But electoral Votes decide these contests, and since 1888 a number of new states in the Northwest have been created. Their presence in the electoral college makes republican defeat much less certain than would have been the case had they not been admitted to the union.” The forty-four states of the union will cast 444 votes ; and the next president must have 223. Specula- tion as to the probable result is idle though it is interesting; but it seems to us that the outlook is far more favorable to Cleveland and far less favorable for Har- and for Preside» am, butchered his deduction of a change of patient a vigorous and telling letter that is reg-rd- ed as one of the meet Mundane manta of McKinley“ M he" been published during the campaign. m the McKinley not makes the rich «richer and the poor poorer in a serious evil. but it is not, in Mr. Monh's opinion. the most serious evil; he contends that the protective taxes “have a wonderful espe- uelty for filterlng through intervening n obstacles till they reach the bowed beck not tell and resting there. and therefore n the giving of beauties. under any form n of taxation. is mainly the giving away of H the wages of labour. But that is not H the worst of it. “Such inequality and ulnjustiee are the least of its evils. for1 u while such a system endures political cor- ufruptiun is shoelutely sure to increase, as usueh a system not only invites but it n requires the corrupt use of money both H at the polls and in the congress.” That is our experience in this country. The N. P. was adopted; the red parlor was established. On the other side Wanna- maker and other republican organizers “fried the fat" out of the protected mono- polist. In this country the old man declared that the hogs under the tree should not forget who shook down the acorns for them. That is one of the great evils of protection, as we have often pointed out, and as the experience of this country has demonstrated. An independ- ent republican paper opposed to high tariffs thus states the case: “ But it is in Hits economic and moral effects on our- n selves that the high tarifi'policv is to be “especially weighed by the voter. That n it may be employed to build up almost H any particular industry or industries, is u a preposition as palpable as that men can “be employed by the public treasury to ‘n engage in almost any business. But It whether it can be used as it has been H without injuring other industries and j H interests related to those which are H sought to be affected, is a question that H each succeeding year’s experience under "an extreme tariff is helping everybody "to decide for himself. We cannot, for u example, make the wool growers’ busi- u uses more profitable to him by artificial “restrictions and taxes without hurting u the woollen manufacturer; and we cannot H in turn help the utter without imposing H a burden on the whole people far great- Her than the special aid conferred. In H other words, this country cannot lift it- uself up by its own boot-straps. And, N meantime, what must be the moral efl'ect u of levying upon one interest to help u another? What amount of cynical greed u and selfishness must not be cultivated by u this pastime of exercising government u favoritism in which we are now engaged ? in And what is to be the end of this policy of u bringing the qovornment more and more It deeply into collzwion with the powerful u capitalistic combinations of the country, u whose encroachments upon the popular “rights are already such as to excite the u people all over the land.” at when ran-mm who do has mm alumna no“ mum. 33M Ital. advice; which is in accord with the experi- ence of many of our shrewdest and most successful farmers: ' Notwithstanding the low nice of whose, farmers or: being ed vised to make only soles of their min.
