Study 1t Out For Yourself.
L. EMERICK.


Henry W. Grady, late editor Of the
Atlanta Constitution, recently gave utter
pee to the following before one Of the
5outhem colleges:
"The fact that man ten years from
poverty has an income Of ,OOOy0OO-and
his two associates nearly as much--from
the control and arbitrary pricing Of an ar
tlcle Of universal use, falls strangely on
The ears Of those who hear 1t as they sit
empty handed while children cry for
bread. The tendency deepens the dangers
suggested by the status. What is to be
the end Of swift piling up of wealth.
When the agents ofadozen men, who
have captured and control an article OF
prime necessity meet the representatives
Of million farmers from whom they have
forced $8,000,0O0 the year before, with no
more moral right than is behind the high
wayman, who halts the traveller at his
pistols point, and insultingly gives them
the measures Of his years rapacity and
tells them-men who live by the sweat Of
their brows aud stand before God and ma
ture-thAt they mustsubmitto to the infamy
because they are helpless, the first fruits
OF this system are gathered and have
turned to ashes or their lips. When
dozen men get together in the morning
and fix the price Of q dozen articles of
common use--with no standard but their
arbitrary will and no limit but their greed
and darlng-and then notify the sOver-
eign people Of this free republic how
much in the mercy of their masters they
shall pay for the mecessaries of life, then
the point of intolerable shame has been
reached.
Economists have held that wheat, grown
everywhere, cannot be cornered by capital.
And yet one man in Chicago tied the
wheat crop in his handkerchief and held
1t until a sewing woman in my city, work
ing for ninety cents week, had to pay
him twenty cents tax on the sack Of flour
she bore home in her famished hands.
Three men held the cotton crop until the
English splndles were stopped and the
lights went out in three English homes.
Last summer one man cornered pork until
he had levied tax Of 83 cents per barrel
on every consumer and pOcketed profit
Of millions. The Gar Of Russia would
not have dared to do these things, and yet
they are no secrets in this free government
of ours'"-CoIorado Workman,

Mammoth Spring, ARK, Jan. 10, 1870
EDITOR ADvOCATE:-Sir, having received
q copy Of your paper, and therein read a
letter from Kansas City correspondent
/ am impelled 10 write for his ihfOrma
tion, what follows, in order TO verify his
statement Of the useless labor oftrylng tc
give any higher culture TO the laboring
and tOillng classes, by his methods.
His own self-estlmatlOn Of his powers
and the consciousness that he is one Of
that class, who Is TO live and enjoy the
fruits Of others toll, without giving equiv.
alent worth; as he quotes the Law Of the
Survival Of the fittest', which law, un.
dertake 10 say, he does not comprehend "a
It's fullest extent.
II Is obvious, that he has not read the
pages Of history, toa great advantage OF
he would see himself pictured among
that class Of minds, who opposed every
advance that the race ever attempted a. a
that opposition Is identical in form If moi
In degree, to the methods adopted by non.
progressive people, in shouting, "crankl
fanatic, "crazy", "deluded" and furths
back In the past, death was given TO D
who dare murmer or complain Of theE
fate, az he also would suggest as the beg
remedy TO check all clamor from tht
PlebeSaRsi
He does not even comprehend, the
statement that all men are created equal
etc. as stated by Jefferson. He can not
see that that proposition was given by a
wiser person than he, and that no refer
ence to brain power, to muscular ability,
nor color Is meant but, to the fact, that in
giving created organizations life, each Or
ganization has right, Heaven given, to
the use Of every object, that would give
that organization unfoldment TO carry out
lts functions.
No man has a right to usurp the air l
breathe; no man has u right TO deprive me
Of power by which I can obtain food;
no man has right to place obstacles in
my path preventing me from obtaining
the highest good or happiness; further, no
man has right to deprive me ofthe OPP
portunity of giving myself the highest
degree Of Development possible.
These are the equal rights Of every
man, woman or child on the face Of the
globe and all checks put upon these God
given rights are obstacles in the way Of
progress and of course, give check to
higher civilization.
The question then, resolves itself into a
small scope; do governmental operations
controlled by political power, put checks
on the God given rights Of manP
II can be answered by the pages of
past records of races and the destruction
which has been given to oppression in
every form where II was possible to be
given, has been done and woe to the or
ganlzation or tyrant, who stood in the way
Of such destruction.
30 to ask my countrymen to be satisfied
with their lot, be It severe and torturous,
is not In my power to get an obedlance
thereto, nor is It'll any ones power, unless
It Is done by force, the force Of Ofoppressioni

ELK FALLS, Kans Dec. 20. 1880
Brothers Of the Farmers Alliance and
Farmers' and Laborers' Union Of America,
Of Kansas:
We enclose with this letter Of appeal a
petition TO our Governor, with copy OF
letter from him, in answer TO the first OF
these petitions which reached him, and
extracts from President ClOver's letter In
ansWer to letter written him on this sub
ject, all Of which will partially explain
themselves, but we wish to call your es-
pecial attention to the features OF this
matter:
1. You are aware Of the financial con-
dltlon Of the farmers Of Kansas, and that
n relief does not speedily come the far
mers Of to-day are 10 become the serfs Of
the near future and that the needed relief
can only come through our united action.
While we realize thotthe matter contained
In the within petition Is but small frac-
ton Of the Legislation needed TO dlspel the
dark clouds that intervene between US
and relief, your committee Is convinced
that the matter contained In this petition
Is Of more importance than anything else
within our immediate reach. To defer
this matter until II can be obtained
through a Legislative session would result
10 the financial death OF many Of our far
mers, besides In a special session the
minds OF the Legislators would be especi-
ally called to this subject and consequent
" they would come to conclusion more
speedily.
3. II some Of you think this would be
detrimental TO our interests In driving
capital from our state Gas Is argued by
somo) we only refer your minds to other
states that have the law asked for in this
petition, and yet money is more plenty
and interest lower than In Kansas.
3. II some Of you hesitate to take hold
because Of the expense Of Especial session
Of the Legislature, we would only ask you
10 consider the individual expense Of de-
lay and to take into account whether II Is
better 70 incur small public debt or a
great many private calamities, and then
think of the fact that the farmers pay the
burden Of the taxes of the state and that
they are the only class Of people that abb
solutely pay tax on all they have Except
the 5000 exemption) and as this is the
tlrst appeal the Farmers Of Kansas have
ever made for special legislation, certain
ly no one can argue that we are asking
TOO much. Then If we farmers are most
" interested in paying the tax concerned
n the requested Legislation who dare
ramsay our right and duty to become in
tensely interested in the request to the
Governor 70 call an extra session Of the
legislature, this being our only source Of
relief.
A. II has been urged by some that the
Governor would not give us fair hearing
In answer to this we refer you to enclosed
copy Of his letter to John Hughes, of Elk
Falls. This indicates plainly that he Is
willing to hear us; that ne is In sympathy
with us; that he stands ready to do all in
his power to extricate us from impending
peril. Surely no one can doubt the loyal
I nv. Of Governor HumphreY 70 the interests

JOHN HUGHEs, Esq, Howard Kan.
MY DEAR sm.-I am in receipt Of
petition signed by yourself and others re-
questlng me TO call a special session Of
the Legislature for the purpose Of provId-
Ing relief for farmers etc. OF course, In
view Of the great public expense Of an
extra session OF that body, you understand,
II would require something approaching
a public emergency which could justify
men in such an act, though / appreciate
the unfortunate condition Of things which
you refer to, and should beas glad AZ any
body could be to see relief extended in
some shape. This is the only petition |
have on the subject, which, Of course, /
will file and give due consideration.
Yours, Very Respectfully,
LYMAN U. HUMPHREY.
