declaration ofprinciples for the new
organization was political in every
sense of the word. One clause,
especially emphasizing the fact, set
forth that tive favor
gradual reduction of the tariff which
shall ultimately lead to free trade"
1t was reserved, however, for the
Topeka meeting of the Farmers Fed
Grafton of the Mississippi Valley to
startle the country genuinely and
thoroughly. This was accomplished
in a twofold way-by Whereas"
and q commercial scheme that would
have done credit to John Laws in his
palmiest days. We shall refer to the
former first, because it is logically
connected with, in fact leads to, the
indicated venture of the federation in
outside business. Wequote: "Where-
as, by reason of the new systems in
business and the combinations against
us, we are not, as an agricultural
class, enjoying equal privileges with
the manufacturing and commercial
classes, and from the inequality of
exchange have for the past ten years
been sorely oppressed by the low
prices of farm products"
These statements, of course, are not
to be treated with levity, nor with
severity because they unjustly assert
there are favored classes in this coun-
try; they ought to be regarded with
considerable patience for the truth
they do contain-which is more fully
told in this citation: "For four years
we have been selling our beeveS on
foot for less than the cost of produc-
ton, still there has been no reduction
in the retail price of beef when cut
from the block nor can the farmers
of'this country raise wheat at the
present prices. Dalrymple, the great
wheat>grower of Dakota, has lost a
million of dollars and has failed and
the farms of the wheat-growing State
are plastered over with mortgages"
But it is scarcely possible to res
train ones mirth when, as remedy
for these evils,th Federation soberly
proposes to engage in the wheat hand
ling and slaughtering business on its
own account with a capital ito be
raised in an unraisable way), OF
$2O,OO0,00O. Nor of its advice to the

All this the Roman Catholics here
