PLEA FOR THE UNION WHY KVKRY FARMER IN T1IE J/AND hliOLIJ) JOIN IT. It lis OiN'iiiiiu; Up New Furrows and ^nvinu New Harvests of Prosperity for Vou. The meal packers say, the biggest corn crop in the history of the world ia having its inevitable result?lower prices ire iu sight.. Oone man who in ut f(mi prices now have reached a point three to eight cents a pound b ?low their retail cost a year ago. The beads of the packing industry In Chicago agree with Chas. Armour, manager of the Armour Packing interests at Kansas City, that still lowre prices are in sight. One man who stands ?t the forefront of the Chicago parking industry said: "The bounti Iness ot the small grains sutures lower prices for ail live stock pru.j'i? ' It. means low er prices for every ' eg handled on the Chicago hoar.' ?f trade, including provisions. Yriiy a.ure, can't yon see it? The new crop of hogs must he priced down and also the new crop of corn Up North farmers are getting 3f? els. for corn, and down here when wo buy it we pay 7 0 cents. You see Clio gamblers are playing the same old game. Kuchre the farmer out of his produce and turn right around ana richer trie consumer out of his money. Last year they bought up the bulk of the hogs at from G to 7.3 0, then raised the price of meat and the price of hogs to 10.35. But notice the hulk of the hogs were already cornered by the pa? leers, through their agents. That was the trick. They then unloaded packers' meat several years old at the high prices. A great many jteopio believed that the farmers were the of the costly meat, because of the high priced hogs. Why, bless your life, the farmer didn't have a thitig to do with it. He don't fix the price on anything. The packers price the hog-; and meat both, and that's what they are up to again. Did you ever k"ow the gamblers to do anything else but fix prices? They fix them born ways. It's another dollar on the price of a h at, And a cent on a pound of tea; And a dime on this and a dime on t hat, To be paid by you and me. Bui. it ? ightn't to make us rage. And we wouldn't get mad If they'd only ana A little more as well to our wage. It's five cents on a pound of meat, A cent a loaf from the flour of the wheat. And some on the clothes we've got to wear, Aad on everything that we eat. Oh, they have'nt forgot a thing, not one. From your shoes and your coat to jour hat; Excepting the farm produce you bring them each day? Then have added nothing to that. Yes. that's the game. It's been played 4 0 years. Wade the people believe?when there was a good crop ?thet there was too much, and right straight farmers went to dumping everything on the farm for sale, and often us farmers didn't get the cost of production. Hut that's the gftrim. The price is fixed down when the farmers ut. selling and up when consumers are buying. You let me fix the price when I buy and again when I sell, and I'll fix myself blamed quick, but it will be bard on tin1 fellow tbat deals with me There's not a business on earth that ,can live and let the buyer tlx the price, no matter bow bi-2 of how strong. it would be I ut a question of utit.11 it. would go broke. lOven Roekfolier, with his millions, couldn't stand H, if ho lot the buyers I* fb< price on his oil. A system with 'f"> power to price is what -taves the business. And that's how Rockefeller -ror his millions. "Hie so-called reduction In meats Is Actftions. Its manipulation is deliberate, ust as the increase in prices was u u in ?t, unreasonable, becaus< meat was priced *oo high, uncalled Cor by conditionH prevailing throughout the country the prices wore fictitious at the top notch, because the\ were forced there arbitrarily.

After a struggle in which the young \v woman returned the negro's blows, scratching and kicking him, he knocked iter down, ran through an alley and escaped.
