The Power Back Of Hallowell.

The farmer is the foundation of all
business property in this land, and
when he fails all other business fails;
when he is driven to desert his home
and seek ont other avocations all other
branches of business to which he is
locally connected suffer thereby.
When he prospers, however, the sun of
prosperity shines upon other business
enterprises. Has the farmer of the
west been prospering of late years.
Has any other legitimate western busi-
ness prospered? Our readers can best
answer that from their own observa-
ton. from their own experience.
The farmer cannot prosper until all
class legislation is banished from our
statutes. The constitution nowhere
gives the right for one class to fatten
off of other classes, and the constitu-
ton is so violated by. the party in
power that the farmer is compelled to
make square fight upon this Issue, OF
the process of depletion viii. go on until
they become as poor and as powerless
as the tenantry of the old world. Ii
may even now be too late to avert the
pending calamity. The power that
wealth gives in controlling legislation
is lost TO them, and their only hope lies
in unity of action TO secure repre-.
sentatives in congress who will not be
bought by monopolistic gold, nor infiu.
enced by political reward Their only
hopes lies in sending men to congress
who can and will be independent OF
party influence.
While the farmers of America had
| the majority of the wealth on their side
they were invincible. and they were SC
until the red hand of war unsettled
the affairs of the nation, and gave ths
bond holders and money changers 8
''sinch" on agriculture. Prior to 1854
the farmers held the majority of the
nations wealth, while now they have
but So per cent. of it.
Until agriculture again becomes tht
dominant power in legislation no grea
amount OF prosperity TO that class neet
be looked for. The farmers of th'
west realize this, and are awakening
to the important fact that the none,
changers of the east will not releas'
their grip upon the pockets of tn
farmers until compelled to do 81

town to take in the alliance picnic, but
unfortunately he managed to take in a
little too much fire water (where did he
get it?) which just about set him crazy.
Some time after dark, after a good
deal of trouble and persuasion, his
wife, with her two little ones got him
started home. When short distance
from town he drove his team up on to
the railroad track (the 9:O7 passenger
was almost due) and swore he would
stay there and let the train ruE over
and kill them, and no doubt would
have done so but for his wife, who
jerked the lines out of his hands and
drove off the track, just in time too, as
the 9:07 PASSED in a few moments
afterwards. This so angered Miller
that he, as she says, took a gun and
tried to shoot her but the gun missed
fire. he then picked up blacksnake
whip and struck her over the head
with the big end of it. By this time
they were in the neighborhood of Tom
Brewers, who attempted to put a stop
to the proceedings when Miller up with
his gun and attempted to shoot him.
They finally got Mrs. Miller into
Toms house, away from her husband.
The blow from the whip proved more
serious than at first supposed. Lock
jaw set in and it was quite a while
before the doctor got relief to the
patient. There was strong threats OF
tar and feathers by the neighbors. 1t
the whisky came from and apply little
tar and feathers in that source also.

Right you are, gentlemen. A man who
is controlled body and soul by ring
composed of hypOcritical, arrogant,
domineering place holders and place
hunters, who preach prohibition for
party's sake rnd not from principle, is
a first class ''chump." There is no
question at all but what Humphrey is

Bro. Caraway explain to his readers
what "chump" is? The intelligent

If THERE is any man who will be a
candidate before the coming republ;-

it is Rev. Ayars. He is getting strong
support for Office by both of the repub-

readers that all the people are wild to
have Rev. Ayars nominated for the
Office of probate judge, while the
Tribune as strongly asserts that he is
the best man in the field for county
superintendent. and the convention
must nominate him. And he is get
