Whether the farmers are able to buy or not. whether the supply is almple or inadequate. the price of agricultural implements and every other manufactured commodity remains at tile highwater mark fixed during the war. while the price of farm products. unsustalued by favoring legislation. rises and falls in comlpetition with the products of the cheapest labor in Europe. Asia. and South America. The manufacturers and workingmen of the United States rightly refuse to nmeet the manufacturers and workingmen of Europe on an equal footing. but the farmers of the United States compete on equal terms with the coolie and peon labor of the world. Favoring legislation enacted by the American Congress effectively closes the door against all foreign competition with American Industry and labor. Is there any legitimate reason why Congress should not extend the same consideration to American agriculture?
