In the last number of The New Eng
lander Professor w. II. Brewer, who
holds the Norton professorship of agri-
culture at Yale university, has an article
deploring the growing tendency to re-
gard the American farmers as a degraded
and ignorant class To prove that this
tendency exists Professor Brewer CITES
among other evidences, the increasing
volleys of humor shot by the funny
men, of the newspapers at the farmers,
and in general the derisive treatment
that the farmer is receiving from the
writers in our journalism, particularly
through New England All this, in Pro-
lessor Brewers opinion, is chiefly the
outcome Of the grating on American
opinion of the foreign idea of the farmer.
Professor Brewer points out the old
view of the farmers ir Europe as de-
graded class, and the origin of the words
'churl," 'villein" and "peasantry'' in
feudal or later times. Immigration of
foreigners to our eastern cities, and the
ideas they have infused into public opin-
ion through the newspapers, have. in
his belief, created quite wrong impress
sion of the real condition of the Ameri
can farmer-of the social position that
he rightfully holds and of his solid traits
of character.
The point raised by Professor Brewer
is ami: teresting one, and is expanded skill
fully in his article. But he probably
much overestimates-atl least we should
say so as a matter of observation-th
influence which the imported writer or
imported ideas exert in forming the
popular conception of the American
farmers as a class. New York Post.

doing or faint by the way, for we will

Whenever an honest, toiling people
has been oppressed beyond measure then
they have been relieved-that is when
they sought relief as they should and as
it was their duty to do. 1t has been SO
from the beginning.
All of the burden under which the
votaries of agriculture groan today are
the results of willful neglect Of duty Oh
their part. And now that these burdens
are becoming intolerable, and seriously
threatening the happiness and welfare of
our children, let us turn from the error
of our ways, avail ourselves of the means
that are at our command, and Moses

Items from an sold Crank.

The day has come, and now is in this
country, that men in high official places
have become so corrupt and dishonest
that the people cannot and do not place
any dependence in what they say or do.
There is now any amount of dishonesty
being unearthed in the census taking.
Some of the cities are credited with
nearly double the honest population
all for the purpose of dishonest boom.
If the man who tolls fourteen hours
day. wears Overals and a checked shirt,
while his wife wears a poor quality OF
calico, how does it happen that the fell
low who never works at all, wears
broadclorh. while his wife wears silk !?
Please answer. someone who believes IN
taxing the many for the enrichment OF
of the few.-TOrch of Liberty.
Yes, we have men and women who
work from IA to l6 hours day, half
live, and wear poor clOthes-they are
day laborers and farmers. Then we
have in this county set of fellows who
would have been glad of a berth at 5000
a year and ten hours, work a day, who
are now in office at a big salary, paid by
these same farmers who work II to l6
hours day, and do well if they come
out even at the end of the year, while
the high-salared official works from
two to four hours day, officially, and
puts in the balance of the time for the
good of the g. o. p.
We want to see, this fall, a ticket of
all the different parties, with a good.
clean, competent set of candidates on
them, then fair, clean campaign, no
cigars at 81 per 100, no Cheap-J Ohm suit
of clothes sent to Welda, or Washington
townsh p, 40 paying men 70 cents per
day at primaries or elections; but a nice,
clean, fair election clear through.
Politics if conducted, or honestly en-
gagged in, never hurt any man. But
where the hurt or injury comes in is in
the dirty ring work TO down some other
party or man-such AS furnishing
Cheap-J Ohm suits of clothing, cheap CT
CARS and buying things in the shape of
men, ut from rs cents to 81 day to
work the primaries and elections in An
derson county in 1888, by bosses of the
z. O.. y.
Every laboring man, mechanic and
farmer i'm this whole country should
take an active part in politics. They
should attend all the primaries, conven-
,ions, etc. They should not stay away
and whiningly say, o, have nothing to
do with politics, but let the old ring
bosses meet together and fix things as
they have been doing in this county,

The "Republican League" Oath.

Republicans, read the following
oath which you will have to subscribe
to if you become a member Of the
League" Study it carefully, and
surely, if you have spark of Ameri-
can independence about You, you will
never take this oath:
"And furthermore do I most SOL
emily and sincerely swear that | will
steadfastly support the constitution
and principles of the League, and i'm
plicitly obey the behests and orders of
its commander; that will not upon
any consideration whatsoever vote for
or work in favor of the nomination Of
any candidate other than the one
whom the only constituted authorities
of this League have named.
Furthermore do l most solemnly
and sincerely swear that / will quick
ly recognize and implicitly obey, in
the League room, on the floor OF a
convention hall or in any room or
street adjacent thereto, any order,
sign or summons given, handed, sent
or thrown by the hands of fellow
member of the League"
Fellow citizens--free- born citizens
Of America-are you going to allow
yourselves to be bound and gagged
and forced to vote just as few party
bosses tell you to? If you subscribe
10 the above oath (Which You will be
compelled to do if you join the League)
you have nothing more to say in the
matter of who shall hold the reins of
government than had the black man
of the South during the day of slav-
cry. 1t matters not who your mas
tiers put up, you've got TO swallow the
