The Farmers Opportunity.

From the JenerSon City Tribune.
Members of the agricultural
wheel and the farmers alliance
now have splendid opportunity to
assist in eradicating the various
trusts which have been bleeding the
producers. The legislature enacted
a strong and far-reaching..law,a and if
the various organizations of farm
ers will assist the secretary of
state it is only question of very
short time when the last trust in
Missouri will cease to exist.
Resolutions passed at a meeting
held in some remote school house
will do no good. What the secre-
tary of state, attorney general and
the prosecuting attorneys want is
evidence. Give them proof and
they will enforce the law. 1t
seems to us that the farmers now
have favorable opportunity to en-
force the doctrine of their organi-
cations. If the agriculturists are
injured by the existence of trusts,
as claimed (and the claim is well
founded), now is the time to obtain
relief. The law is strong enough to
crush out every trust and combine
in the state. Let the evidence be
produced, and there is no question
but what the secretary OF state will
see that the law is enforced.
