RoRB.NG THE FARMERS.
How Ten People Are Eariched at the
Expense Of Tsn Thousand Others.


Expense Of Tsn Thousand Others
For every dollar that the farmer pays
out for his children's school books, no
gets twenty-five cents worth OF books
and seyenty-five cents worth Of protec-
ton to trusts. The twenty-five cents
pays for the paper and all the labor rep
resented by the book, and the seventy.
five cents goes TO swell the pockets OF
people who have not earned it. In this
school-book combine we have merely
one of the schemes by which the farmer
is Systematically robbed. The transac-
tion merely means transfer OF the sew
enty-fve cents from the pockets OF peo'
pls who have earned and created this
money to the pockets of oh-producingl
blood-sueking vampires. 1t helps to
make ten people richer and 10000 peo-
pie poorer. 1t is on par with the rob-
berries committed by the aristocratic
hirhwavmen of the middle ages. 1t is
a tax on education, and tends to keep
the poor in ignorance. The prohibitory
price of school books restricts the use
among the masses. Twice the number
of books would be used, twice the mon.
ey paid out to the employees of paper
mills, printing establishments, book
binderies, ETC., if these books were sold
at reasonable price. In short, this
whole business is an outrage which the
Legislatures of every State could very
easily correct, or put an end to by prop
er legislation. Why is it notdone? But
this is only a straw which shows (which
way the wind bloweth," 1t is exactly
the same thing in other and larger
things. 1t has come to this, that the
farmer must support others, idlers, in
luxury, and when he complains that
farming does not pay, has it thrown in
his face that he is eXtravagant and
aspires to things that are above his sta
ton, because he is not any more content
with the Lighthouse, the homemade ta-
bles and benches, the home-spun clothes
and primitive style of living of his FORE
fathers. Philadelphia Practical Farmer

Intrlcacies of the Tariff.

The farmers of Kansas are slowly ris-
ing to an appreciation of the fact that
they cannot profitably sell their corn to
Mexico under a tariff policy which ex-
cludes the lead ores of Mexico from
this country. Accordingly, the farmers
of Kansas are beginning to call upon
their Senators and Representatives in
Congress to vote against the proposed
exclusion of Mexican ores by prohib-
itory duty. At the same time the Col
orado silver miners declare that they
contributed 500, 900 to the Harrison
campaign fund with the understanding
that Mexican ores should be prohibit
ed; and they insist that the bargain
shall be kept in good faith. What with
the double fear of losing Kansas ,otes
and Colorado money the Republican
managers are in dilemma in regard to
the lead ore tariff.-Philadelphia Rec
