 LOW PRICES OF FARMERS, pponr.

 The Whig papers are becoming ev..s er.,. uneasy under the exhibition in the Dsm ic papers of the extremely low prices @ aS mers' produce. Whig parlisans areeaa.'] ed by plain table of facts, and as tbsl. sort of despair, they pronounce the,s s,l ments s'unscrupulous."

 To sustain all the inequalities of tb. :, ent tariff, some of the most reckless '. insist that produce is not lower than : been in years past. The farmers vh. now receiving l2 cents per pound fo, butter, under the influence of the a' market," when in 1S42 they received lS, l7 cents per pound, and for their wbss cents, where they used to receive SO {, and for their beef2 cents pound when used to receive 3 cents, may think thsi s prices are lower than they have been bd and even below liring proft. Let K Whig editors who probably get ther ad the counting-room of some manufactur, among the hard working farmers of dN cinity or on the fertile lands of Wesen \ York, Ohio, Michigan, Ilinoise, or Ww sin, and they will tell them that they b not been so poorly remuaerated in yeaa they are under the present Whig prices The sugar, the molasses-the duties which range from 50 to ii0 per cent-I

 

 iron, and the woollen cloth, are he} than they were in 1912, while his prices wheat, beef, butter, cheese, and lard, NJ more or less fallen. Is this the advaaags farmer was to receive from the tariff Of | was he not promised higher pricss by Whig party of the nation' The ansT4| simply, they have not. This is the pOS in which the Whig party now stand sl born facts are crushing them between tie| per millstone of large profits for the n facturer and the neither millstone ofloE ges for the farmer This picture is tool \ fest to be mistaken. It should also k membered that this effect was foresan at the time of the passage of the tariff Yia was insisted that the farmers would not 4 dollar by that bill. The Wings insisted they would This was thus made an N Which has proved the true prophet and most provident of the agricultural inters the nation3 The present low prices an| that question.

 The millions of farmers are now suh1 in diminution of the profits of lheir and when the Democratic press of tha| try hold up the very results which ssgai minds anticipated, the Whig parry are spasms by these statements. But dolhFl get that for months they have been studN and most unfairly representing the DeaS| lc party as in favor of British free tsds | as the determined enemies of Americsaa Has not this been the policy of the WhgF1 from Maine to Louisiana And now, facts, ever powerful with thinking P like the American, are favoring the lsI cratic side of the tariff question, then cation is denounced as s.unscrupulousaa1 fair"

 We are but administering to the some of their own medicine, and ftF1 it disagreable, they should remembeI m the last two years they have had therls denouncing Democrats as the enemls' d' industrial interests of the nation. Ihes' tics are not forgotten, and now they n' turning to plague their inventors.
