THE FARMER IS A CRANK.

The farmer is crank because he
wants to borrow money at per cent,
INSTEAD OF II TO 10 per cent. Because
he wants the government TO deal with
him on the same basis that IL deals with
other men. Because he wants more
than Is cents bushel FOR wheat and
seven cents pound for Gotten. Because
he kicks against paying 10 per cent. Of
che taxes when he owns % per cent Of
the property and half Of that mortgaged.
Because he protests against condition
which condemns the real wealth producer
ioa lie Of toll, while the speculater lives
In luxurious ease. Because he has dis
covered that he has been deceived by
his political friends % asd has conclud-
ed to vote independently. Because he
has assumed 10 know any thing at all
about politics Because he refuses TO be
robbed aud then vote for the robbcr.
Bcacause he has made up his mind TO
quit being fool Oh, yes the farmer
is a crank lie was all, he was every
thing, rs long as he done Just what
the politicians told him TO do But
when he decided 10 become something
Of politician himself II was lust Too
awfully awfulr' Because he wanted Ia
do his own thinking and acting he is
the cranklest kind OF a crank. He ought
TO 80 on and support the bosses in fal

The mills of justice have been
grinding In Emmett pretty steady all
week. The first case on the docket in
Judge Phillips court was a case Of burg
larry. About the fifteenth Of the present
month a great many little depredations
were committed around the neighbor-
hood and suspicion centered on Frank
Keel, f. Sutton and Bill Lowe, OF Will
low creek, who were In Emmett about
the time most Of this petty thicving
was committed. Accordingly Park
Wardwell, whose barn was looted, had
a search warrant issued and II sherif's
party went ont and searched the prem
ises OF the suspicioned parties and found
the missing articles. While the search
was being made Keel and Sutton skip
ped out and the officers were unable TO
find them. Lowe was brought to town
and after two days examination be-
fore Judge Phillips was bound over to
the grand jury under bonds in the sum
OF 5000. As yet he has been unable TO

on charge OF having looted the Gill

dited by the grand jury. About the
time Parks barn was gone through ].
NJ. Martin missed some garden tools,
Stephen Dempsey was short few curl
ing irons, Allen & Stanlcy's cabin was
broken into, bride taken from Murray's
barn and one from VIM. Parish s. horse,
which was hitched on the street, and a
few days before these depledaiions were
committed the residence of J. NJ. Big.

dren in the flesh to supervise and regu-
late these men Of iron and steel; and
after running some months, the women
and children who had been looking for
some increase in wages over what they
had been receiving for similar work be-
fore the passage Of the new tariff, which
they understood was for the benefit OF
labor, conveyed their expectations to
the superintendent Of the mill, who, after
little, said to them, Women, IL you
are not satisfied with your wages, you
can step down and out any Saturday
night, as there are enough more around
here, and who would be thankful for the
opportunity to take your places; and IL
there was not, we can readily get sup
ply from England and Germany" etc.
The very intimstion struck terror to the
hearts Of the poor dependents, and they
hastened to return to their work, pro-
testing that they must be satisfied. I
will only add that the mill earned 4ts 20
per cent. per annum on the capital in
vested for the next five years to my GER
tain knowledge, and that the wages Of
the operatives, instead Of being raised to
correspond with still higher tariff, were
actually lowered. Such is protection;
and thus is the world hoodooed and de-
ceivsd by the shrewd and cunning, as it
has been from the beginning of time.
