Congressional Incapacity.

The house of representatives is
without quorum and the sergeant
alarms has sent out percmptOry
call to all absent members to return
at once. But even if successful in
securing the attendance of the requir-
ed number of Lawmakers, it is un-
likely that the rgeant-at-arms, or
the speaker himself, can accomplish
the speedy discharge of the legislative
work on hand.
The present congress is a disappoint-
ment. Ii is now i'm the ninth month of
its session and tile financial and po-
liticaI problems which awaited its at
tention nine months ago are still un-
solved. A Republican president,
Republican senat ',a..Republican house,
all united to give the people oRise
of active governmental work. This
promise has not been redeemed. The
speaker arrogated TO himself powers
hitherto unheard Of upon the plea Of
expedi,ing Legislation, yet nothing
has come of it all bevOmd the seating OF
Republican contestants and the ad-
mission OF Republican states.
The time for the congressional cleo
tons is approaching. The response
bility cast upon the Republican party
by its control of all three branches of
the government is heavy. rhe party
cannot afford to go before the people
upon its present record of congress

In Ohio.

The Farmers Alliance grew slowly in
Ohio until last winter, when about thir-
ty members of the state legislature from
agricultural counties united to promote
legislative action favorable to the farm
ers, and to oppose measures framed in the
interests Of other classes. Being new
organization it failed.to accomplish any
substantial results.
The main effect of the movement was
to promote the work Of organization
among the farmers Of the state. In one
week recently twelve local divisions of
the Farmers Alliance were organized in
Huron county alone. This was an excep-
tional record, but it shows how the idea
is taking hold upon the agricultural
classes of the state. There are now over
800 local Alliances in the state, besides
the many branches of the Grange, Pa
irons of Industry, Farmers league and
Farmers Mutual Benefit association

Principles Before Party.

We cannot go any farther in the line
of politics than to urge farmers to vote
for men identified with their interests,
and pledged to support those interests,
and preferably for men Of their own
calling. This we have done and will
continue to do. We regard u mans po-
litical affiliations of far less Importance
than his Identification with the interests
of farmers, and although we believe
there will be less friction and less dan
ger of injury to the union if members do
not try to force others to make party
changes, still we believe that members
of the union in all political parties should
consider men and principles before par

They Are Grasping Hands.

Professor Walker, of the Massachu-
sets Agricultural college, in speaking to
farmers, says that heretofore in all parts
of the world the farmer has been no
Notch for his adversary. He never held
his own against soldier or priest, against
politician or statesman. In ancient times
he was @ slave, in the Middle Ages serf;
in the Nineteenth century he is q slave,
serf, peasant or proprietor, according to
location. American farmers, rs a class,
are face to face with the crisis. They
have subdued continent and furnished
raw material for our factories, bread for
our operatives and manhood for civil
ization. They sustained national credit
with their hard earned dollars. rescued
endangered liberty with their conscien-
tious ballots and defended time and
again the Stars and Stripes with their
LOYAL blood Vigorous in body. strong
in character, striking in individuality,
lovers of home, massive in common
sense, fertile in resources, devout be-
LEVERS in Providence, the farmers OF
America win never allow themselves to
be overwhelmed by the fate that sunk
the tillers of the soil in India, in Egypt
in Europe.
From all parts of this land farmers are
coming together. Organization and CO.
operation are the wonderful ideas that
have awakened them as never before.

They are grasping hands with grip
that means something. Montana Farm
ing and Stock Journal
Doing Their Own thinking.


For what purpose did we as members
of the Farmers and Laborers' Union Of
America combine ourselves together?
1t was in order that we might benefit
ourselves socially, morally and finans
cially.
How do we benefit ourselves socially?
Why, by coming together weekly, semi
monthly or monthly, as the case may
be, exchanging ideas, planning what is
best for the members and the country
at large, discussing matters for our mu-
tual good, and teaching the farmer and
laborer to think more for himself and
depend less upon the doctors, lawyers,
colonies, captains, and more especially
the politicians, to think for him. If we
have not as much talent we certainly
have as much brains and honesty among
the farmers and laborers of this country
as among any other class or profession.

Lecturer Halls Propositions.

Hon. U. s. Hall. state lecturer of the
Farmers and Laborers' union Of Mis-
souri,, laid down the following PROPOSE
lions in an address recently delivered at
Nevada, Mo-:
First-In any well regulated govern
ment labor is the source Of all wealth.
Second-The farmers labor two and
one-third hours a day more than any
other class of men.
Third-They are the most economical
class of men in our nation, las stingy
as an old farmer" having become prov
erb.
Kansas agitator. [volume] (Garnett, Kan.) 1890-1905, 1890-08-11

Fourth-The conclusion that should
follow from the above propositions is
that the farmers are the wealthiest class
of men in our country, but the truth is
the very reverse, and the fact stands be-
fore us today that the farmers of the
United States are the poorest class OF
people we have, and are yearly and rap
idly growing poorer.

Truck Gardens Greatly Benefited by
the Recent Rains.
ORANGE PARK, FLA, May 22.-Since the
rains commenced quite change has taken
place in the little truck farms and truck
gardens. Indian corn, especially, has had
a wonderful growth, and if the showers
continue for month longer some corn will
be made. In some of the orange groves
much shedding of the fruit is to be seen.
About all visitors have left for their north
ern homes Mr.. McNutt was wonderfully
improved by his visit to Florida, and
he will become citizen next fall. A spirit
of Improvement is plainly to be seen in
Orange Park. Work will bs commenced
soon upon the college grounds, which will
give employment to a large number of
hands. The Afford Bros. have the contract
Of furnishing 10000 feet of lumber

Ting down the artesian well. MIR.
Hefwright, who has had large experience in
we'll boring, superintends that work. The
derrick is now ready for the machinery,
which is expected at any time The
natural drainage of this place is not
surpassed by that of any place in the state,
and the readiness in obtaining large flows
of artesian water at the depth OF 400 feet
and less adds much to its Importance.
There are no blacKberries or whortleber-
