These lid be securely bolted at the end, the joints made tight by white weeks many editorials attempting to prove that the Canadian fanner is protected by our tariffs. In support of this contention it is stated as a fact that "In 1873 the Canadian farmers sold about $12,000,000 worth of their products to the U. S. on which they paid a duty of very nearly $4,000,000." And again, "Ip other words the Canadian farmer was , compelled to pay into the treasurey of the U. S. what practically amounted to one third of the value of the articles sold and had to be satisfied with the ,, other• two thirds for himself," &e. The utter absurdity of Contending that foreign farmers can be taxed and compelled to pay money into our treasury by simply passing a law at Ottawa, as our own fanners, accord- ing to the foregoing supposed facts, are said to have been compelled to pay $4,000,000 into the treasury of the U. S. simply because a certain law was passed at Washington, is too apparent to need refuting further than to state that if it were possible to make foreign farmers pay our taxcsswe could lay the ,whole world of farmejs under contribution and'so' wax rich by simply passing laws ; — ancl this'is really what protectionist statesmen (of the Tupper type) of obeying one + or two fuudauneutai rules necessary to success.
