, to what causes this difference. Our products are not as valuable as similar products
East because of the vast difference in the
item of freight. Our wheat mustfind its
market in Europe; Our wine and raisins and
hops must be sold in Eastern markets or
in Europe, end we are compelled to pay
tore to reach such markets than our friends
of the Middle or Kastern States, Then how
can we account for the difference i our condition as compared with the ‘East? There
ean be no effect without adequate cause,
and where shall'‘we look for the cause of
this condition of our people?
There can be but one source to which we
ean look, and that must be our products and
resources. What do we produce that gives
us such advantage over our Eastern neighbors? What but gold do we produce that
they do not ?
