In our issue OF January 30 we pub
lished a statement concerning a reso-
luton said to have been adopted 10y
the association Of retail implement
dealers at that time in session at Kan
sas City. We considered the author
ity for that statement good, or we
should not have published it. We
have been informed that it is an error
and asked to correct 1t, and in this
issue we publish a statement over the
signature of the president Of the asso-
citation denying that such a resolution
was passed. If the party from whom
we received our information has any
evidence to offer on the subject it will
now be in order for him to submit it.
Let us know the truth.

employees are all sworn 10 preserve the secrecy Of
the information. It's hoped that the interest In
the mortgage question, which prevails every
where throughout this country, will enlist the CO.
operation Of everyone 10 whom these requests
are made. This investigation Is authorized by
act OF congress In response To a general demand
on the part Of the people that 10 shall be made,

In this way the purpose sought to
be accomplished by actual knowledge
Of farm indebtedness is to be defeat
cd. We would ask any man with
grain Of SENSE how tho census Of four
counties in the state Of Kansas, e5-
pecially taken on the method here IN
dicated can be made to furnish even
an approximate idea Of the mortgage
indebtedness Of our people. If the
object was to secure accurate knowl-
edge, the information would be
sought in the same manner as other
statistical facts by the regular census
enumerators in their house to house
canvass. 1t was only after the
strongest pressure was brought to
bear by tho Legislative committees Of
the National Farmers Alliance and
the Knights Of Labor that the neces-
sary legislation was secured author
izing tho taking Of statistics Of mort
gage indebtedness; and now it be-
comes apparent that the purpose Of
this legislation is to be defeated by
the absolute worthlessness OF the in
formation (O to be gathered upon
this subject
SO great has become the cor
ruption Of official dignitaries that
even the census reports are to be
perverted to serve partisan ends. 1t
is well known fact that the property
Of very large majority Of the people
Of Kansas is to-day heavily mort
gagged, and great part Of it beyond
all hope Of redemption. Every man
who is not sold out body and soul to
Wall street and its representatives
admits this; and those who are thus
sold know this To. be true, but have
not tho honesty to admit it. 1t is
constantly reiterated that farm mort
cages are being rapidly paid, and
that the records Of the several coun-
ties Of the state show that they are
being released. We are ready to
admit that many mortgages are being
Cancelled, and this is the manner in
which It is being done: Farmers are
surrendering their homes to the mort
gagees, and in all such cases, Of
course, the records show a release Of
the mortgage. In very many IN
stances these men are now renting
