Organization Necessar,

Democratic farmers contend that COM
hinations to control md reduce the prices
of farm products are possible because of
iniquitous tariff laws passed by the Re
publican party, while Republican farm
ers contend that but for the said tariff
laws the condition of the farmer would
be much worse than at present, because

fore a wide diversity of opinion as to
causes which prevents the farmer from

and from accmulating capital

bined to deprive him of the fruits Of his
own labor, it is evident that organization
among farmers is an absolute necessity.
Those who have studied the subject for
the last thirteen years have full knowl-
edge of the details of the various capt.
talistic conspiracies against the interests
of agriculture. Railroad, tax, patent.
food -adulterating, and trust robberies,
in all their different phases, have been
fully exposed, the conspRators have
been held UP to popular contempt, and
the farmers have been urged to mass
their strength and influence against the
systematic Efforts to rob them aud to de-
prive them of their rights, and, in some
measure, their liberties. The work OF
resisting the eneroaehments of capital,
greed. and villaiGly upon the interests
of the producing classes has been crown
ed with considerable success. Indeed

emphatic opposition TO the schenes and

situation, and the people on our farms

The spirit of greed HAS been held in

aims, and by the comparatively ineih-
cient organization that has been secured
among the producers of the country

TO that question we would like frank

It is no. because we have not done ouI

not because most of our readers have moi

creased majority Mr.. Mudd stands as
the galllnt and able representative in this
district Of the PARTY which favors a tariff
with protective features with reciprocity
added. He favors a fair vote and an
honest count, aud opposes with no un-
certainty the perversion Of the rights
aud liberties of the people by the passage
Of such Infamous measures as the regi 3
tration and election laws enacted by the
Democratic party Of Maryland, which
with all their varied constructions re-
solve themselves finally into this, that
they we're designed for tbs purpose Of
depriving working men. who left for a
time the home of their birth, of their
right of franchise. He stands as the
earnest champion Of the interests of his
constituents, as evidenced by the firm

ment by the Senate of She iSternai rcve-
