One i day this negro, so Allen says, went into ! the country to pick cotton, but presently returned very much disgusted. "Didn't you get any offers to pick cot- , ton?" Allen asked. ( "Yes, sich as dey was. A white man , offered me one-fourth of what I picked. I jess took a look at de field, and saw for , myself dat when hit was all picked, hit , wouldn't amount to one-fourth, so I leff for home.

This foolish belief is what is - annually turning over thousands of farms } in Indiana, Illinois, Iowa, Kansas and c? other States, to the usurers of the East. 81 The farms of Indiana alone, are mortgaged ^ to the amount of $398,000,000. This enor- - mous load can neither be borne nor paid " under a tariff that robs the farmer of a cj: third of his income. He should protect Y - - - - - ?? < / T) himself by voting that tne Denents 01 iree government should be equitably distrib- n uted to all the people.
