q. 8. Hall, State lecturer for
the Farmers and Laborsrs' Union,
made IN able and exhaustive
speech At the Ferris Opera House
yesterday. Mr.. Hall 10 ono Of
the best posted men in the State on
agriculture and what the farmers
need in the way of legislation. He
knows what he 10 talking about and
understands how to tell what he
knows. He favors thorough organ
ration among farmers and Iaborers
.nd~thinks nothing can be done
until q permanent organization il
effected all along the line. Much
could be accomplished by working
together and in harmony. His
speech bristled with solid fac.s
and he compared the condition of
farmers with that of every other
class and his solution to the whole
trouble was largely an application
If tariff reform. The farm is the
unit Of measure of all the values OF
the country; it is the mercury BY
which legitimate business should
be graduated; when it is we'll with
the farmers. it is of necessity we'll
with the Union. When the iarmer
is put to disadvantage, then there
is an injurious disturbance of that
equilibrium upon the preservation
of which. depends all the prosper
ity of our country. The foundation
principles of all genuine business
success are upon the value of agri-
cultural products, and of their ex.
change at fair and speedily trans.
ferred equivalents. Mr.. Hall is
opposed to the farmers organiza-
ton going into politics and thinks
ifit does the result will come soon
and be the ruin of the movement,
as it was of the Grange. He was
also opposed to the order making .
fight on legitimate business men or
their business, and was of the
opinion that the merchants and
others living in all the towns
throughout the State would be
their oest friends and join hands in
attempting to down the trusts and
overturn the monopolies which are
crushing the working people Of all
classes to the earth.
Mr.. Hall was introduced to the
audience, which was composed of
representative farmers, by J. A.
Potts, of this city. president State
Board of Agriculture, and made O.
splendid and sensible talk, which
we only wish we had the room to
give in full.
