American congress is the law (> i making body of our government and upon its work is dependent' largely the. prosperity, peace and happiness of the masses of the people. —Lam a-candidate to represent you in that congress, becau-e by experi ence and training I foil that I am fitted for the work, and b\ instinct and'feeling I believe in and’ will fight for those principles of govern ment which furnish protection to the large body of toilers in the country. I am a farmer pure and simple, In governmental affair- the farmer as a class has been unmercifully sinned against. It is a fact that in any body of men, the class not repre sented. will not get a square deal During fourteen years of hard wonc in the eapitol at Washington, I saw* the legislation of the nation shaped year after year, largely by lawyers many of whom had previously been' employed by railroads and corpora tions. . There has heerv-sime the Civil war a callqus indifference to the inter ests of the agricultural South, and a tariff soothing syrup administered ■ ^ to the agricultiu^J West. Not until the organization of the farm bloc, in congress was any considerable., relief undertaken. Very little has been ac complished to. date.

I believe if the government could draft a man and send him t<> battle at the front, the same government can draft wealth to pay the bills. In the recently en acted tax reduction bill Big Business got off. as usual, too light. Henry Ford’s -corporation, for instance, pays a tax of 12Va per cent, with u hundred million dollars carried to- surplus, when the average fanner s tax is 16 per cen f . for all purposes. Mr. Ford has much company. The agricultural masses are en titled to representation on every agency of government. They com prise forty million of our people. *6 per cent of them arc pure blooded Americans.
