UNREST OF FARMERS.

The Presentment of the Graud..phry
in-refePotc^ to the. Steward of tlie ifoor
House * dealt g mi:ust y" hy (ftAjjn-
mates of said iustit •tion flavin" cfnped
some comment. theC mimisslonorslL ve
investigated the mat ter and lind th«ful-
iowing to b'* facts in the case:
Supplies lire bought hy tlie week to
supply inmates; a commis-ary i* kept
and all supplies kept' therein; inmates
are allowed $3.0ll per montli and take
said amount iiL.wJmtever they may de
sire in tlie way of groceries, any amount
ot weekly purchasgdfeU.ovgj' remains in
commissary and order lessened to that
atnmint the next week.
We find that the Steward ha* fol
lowed the world-wide rule of adding on
(tower* aid the municipalities to fleece
him. He has loudly sounded hi* griev
ance against middleiueii—commission
dealers—but lie has hefe no cause to
murmur except at his own nb tiiiKcf
and ruinous Independence. He can co
operate witli hi* neighhdr* and ship to
an, appointed agent and reap all tlie
proflis himself. If lie will not adopt
this ixpKfaof uiituhlnlng against tlie tacit
combination* of cities tiif'ii lie will bav'e
to stew in his Ignorant fume* until pov
erty brings him to his-sertses’. The
standard of Ule is higher in cities and
the inaii in town ha* a commanding po
sition in flm higgling in the niar.et*.
Undoubtedly trusts are a heavy dis
crimination against tlie farmer. No
“combine” can raise tlie price of Iii*
wheat, his hoof, or Ills cattle for him,
and yet nearly every implement lie
buys lie Im* a tlctitiod* value on it, ai.d
it is put .h’re mainly through tlio aid
of tiie governing' power. Trusts rv*t
on two tilings, the tiiriff and (latent*.
Both of tlie*C are a matter of legal reg
ulation. Id such instances the lartner
ha* Iii* only genuine grievance, a g-iev-
auce against Ins government because it
extend* special favor* t(» some. Legis
lation i* so often for special classes,
with a sop how and rl!"h to the great.
tural masse*. The hall* and corHdors
of the capital at Washington arf being
worn,smooth by the protectionist*
crow ding ti >d da.not Ing f* r (tet schemes
but the m Hd tread of the plow man I*
never heard there.
It is only when the supreme authority
that, we ai support tu/ns it* beffefleent
rays upon a cliosen feiV that the farmer
should raise ids voice th protest outside
of government interference? lilt? contest
with elite*!*nu nu equal |danc' and if
Ife is be iten by cunning and Compact
voldiitary organization lie can, only
blame hiinsoll for wot uniting into an
Industrial arnirv But when RW ropre-
sentatives are lioodwinked adtlMiatn-
boozled by shrewd lobbyist* and im
posing delegation* ami cooked-up (leti-
tions to (ia** staMite* that gehtly but
mercilessly filch from his (sickets the
hard earning* of Iii* labor, then he ha*
a righteous cause of ludignatihh.
I Hi ha* made an Outcry About hi*
mortgages, but their Amount and iiiiui-
b t onlr *tiow hi* distress. Under our
present social and industrial system lie
has no ImsI* of attack in til* matter, a*
in*freely assumed those obligations un
der i he law of supply and demand. The
holding of these claims so largely by
Eastern capitalists on Southern and
Western larms is an unfortunate^neeHi-
sion for the development of a tret onal
feeling.
But the farmer claims that hi* chief
burden comes from having to help car
ry other vocation* that tlie governm nt
looks on with partial eye. The e«tah-
lishineut of banks is peculiarly facili
tated and great (lower is put in their
hands. The expensive requirement*
make such a business hopelessly beyond
the reach of nearly every farmer in the
laud. Their control over tlie volume of
currency i* comp ete.. Snub sway i* too
notent for evil to he delegated to am til
er agency.
But it is on the. silver question that
tlie tanner of the South and West Is
stirred most deeply and resentfully.
He know's'only too well that there ha*
been a sail fall in tlie prices of commo
dities since the demonetization of silver
by tlie leading nations -of the world-.
Hd argues that this fall D because of
