Considering ■(/the farms actually unik r mnrt it is foiuid that they rre v«lu«d 100,000,000,nnd mortgaged ««above the f ( ' r cent. The r; •« HP^ges in the year ending Fl887, was 1 607, and part of farms tinder foreclosure have ■■n redeemed. Wri'h" faintly of the atatenient on wdeh the whole argument rests is ms demonstrated beyond a doubt,and is hardly necessary to examine the alter further. But this same report tps other facts to confirm the results ven above, and to prove that, as a ciass, the farmers have prospered to an ekrent probably unequalled among the other classes of our people. It appears from careful inquiry that the foreign rs owning farms in Michigan number bout 25.000, and that their farms are worth about f65 000,000. It further appears that these 85.000 farmers brought into the state $4,608,188, and that they have borrowed on their farms $11,191 714 ; total, $15,854 «02 The total net increase to these 25,000 foreign born owners is therefore #50, 000 000 on an investment of less than $18,000,000.

In Mil a wax N. »era cl*y Then w • C»r oa* he the ■0 ■ the farmers of this country have pro fited equally with others in the advan tage« of our American industrial sys tem. Their accummulatod wealth does not, it is true, appear in the savings banks. But it will be found in the in crease! v due of their farms. No other state has furnished statistics thor oughly covering this question. But there is no reason to think that Miohi is unlike other Northwestern gan stales, or that their condition will be found ©BBentlulIy different from here, except as ebe ban the advantage over newer states of greater development. But the others who are now behind are rapidly overtaking her. The rest of tho argument is as falla cious as the foundation of it is false. First, it is not true that the farmer has to pay more for what he uses, unless it be to an immaterial extent, for which he is more than compensated by bis borne market. Second, tho accumula ted wealth of the East which he bor rows to enable him to buy or to extend his farm, and from which be has earned the enormous profit of $50,000, 000 in Michigan, on a capital of $16, 000.000, did not come from manufao It came from the savings tun-re. banks and life insurance companies of the East, both representing the earn inga of working people, who have en j yel the b'Dili's of high wages and then loaned their accumulations to en able the farmers to share in their ad What shall bo said of toe vantages. f: rmer who would wish to breakdown the industries which have thu#, indi reotly, ber-n tho S' urce of his own prosperity ?
