Harrodsbnrg Sayings: Farmers
will notice that all things they
have to sell are lower In price than
they were six years ago. Wheat,
corn. beef and pork, while cotton
hardly pays the expenses OF pro.
duction. Articles they have to
buy are higher IN price, except
sugar, and that lie lower only be-
cause no tariff IS taxed on it. but
it is admitted free. Mule colts
under Clevelsnd's administration
brought readily from $50 to $50
per head. Last Monday, county
court day, better mule colts sold
for only s25 and $50 per head.
These are facts that speak 10 you.
farmers, from your depleted peck
Ell books. Every farmer who had
a mule colt. and knows the differ.
ence between s2j and $50, realizes
these statements are true. Judge
Gresham, a distinguished Repub-
