no SAMUEL J. CRAWFORD,

Having Just read your letter In the
Topeka 0apital Of July 23, purporting to
answer the question, "Who is Polk2" |
desire, as an Abe Lincoln republican, to
ask you few questions. Yous say "Polk
halls from the great agricultural aud
stock producing state Of North Carolina"
"a state which exports tar whisky and
tobacco only" Allow me TO ask, first, is
a man responsible for the exports OF his
state? Second, If the exports Of q mans
state mako him great and good, or vice
versa, what were the exports OF Wash
ington's state and the states Of our revo-
lutionary siresg
OF course you are a good friend Of the
farmers Of Kansas, or you would not be
straining yourself 80 hard 10 instruct
them. You say that Polk has "turned
himself loose as a sort Of Moses among
the farmers of Kansas" / have been told
that one Pharaoh thoughethe children Of
Israel we're all right as long as they
would make bricks without straw, but he
seemed 70 think Moses was political
shyster. Can you tell me what became
OF PharaohP While the "adventurer, dead
beat and blatant demagogue," Moses, was
leading the children Of Israel, did Pha-
raoh suggest any means Of relief 70 the
children OF Israeli Did he tell them TO
plow deeperS Did he say they must not
let the hens roost on the farm machinery
What remedy have you to suggest for the
relief Of the Kansas farmerf You say;
"Among other schemes / clip the follow
ing from the National EcoaOmist: J. H..
Turner, secretary, has made arrange
ments by which he can send alliance
seals prepaid to every address for 1926"
/ want to get over two hundred seals 10
make an impression on that many Of our
misrepresentation in Washington. You
will confer a great favor by telling me
where can get them cheaper than / can
from J. II. Turner, secretary You in
form us that Ralph Beaumont "knows no
more about practical farming or mechan-
ical labor than a Comanche Indian" Did
you learn to farm among the Comanche
IndiansH II 80, why did you not give the
Kansas farmers the benefit Of your ex-
haustive knowledge before Beaumont
came around? ale (Beaumont) is la
boring man Of leisure, who is able to
spend his winters in Washington and his
summers among the dear people, telling
them how they are being robbed by
somebody else" VIII you be so kind as
10 tell us who has robbed the farmers the
twenty years previous to this one? You
say "such men POLK and BeaumOnt) are
disturbers Of the peace, pests to oOmmu-
mites, and enemies Of God and man." Az
you are such a good friend OF God and
man, Of course you will tell the farmers
how TO make money out of Is cent corn,
and as the elephat should always 80 TO
the mouse for protection, so you will
show the farmers the advisability of seek
ing assistance from those whom they have
made financially. "Of course the farm.
ers Of Kansas are in debt, and 80 they are
everywhere, but no more than people en-
gagged in other pursuits Of life, and not
so much" "The truth is, everybody is
in debt; because the whole business Of
the country is now done ON a credit ba-
sis." viii you PleOee explain how they

ularis on the Lualaba, 10 Of special inter-

ard says the air Of KatanRa reminded him
Of the bracing atmosphere of the German

there as low as 81 degrees aboye zero, and
the natives told him tnat lee sometimes

tied In Garangnnzsli, near KatanRa, be-
lieves that there he has found country
