OF these does not differ from those of last

At meeting Of tho farmers of Kane, DuPago,

Mr. Bishop said TINT " when monopoliats tried to

uouB and forciblo statomont Of tue farmers'
position. It tolls the whole story Of the wrongs

hive been tho REASONS, aud railroad charGos aro
among tho reasons, though porhaps not tho
most potent Of thon,, 1t Ia q fact that many Of
the farms during the past year hayo not paid
per cent Oh the capital invested in them. There
IL but worry small margin, thon, to so Oil before
tile farm is gono. On tho one hand, tho farmer
finds an oxaotion Of an outrageous percentage
Of ILLS earnings in tho form of protective tarirf
on ovcry article Of clothing for llis family and
on oyory implement which ho uaeB in tilling the
which lo contributes as bonus to other monop-
oIists. On tho othor hand, llo ila1s tho rail-
road monopoliRts taking from him tho worry

so; that ts, whom their ouatomors are earning

Ia neither desirable nor proper that they should
