FARMER LEGISLATION.

During the coming year there will be an i'm
mensc number of matters of the most vital in
terest to farmers dealt with by Congress and the
Executive Departments at Washington. It is
highly important that the farmers be kept
promptly and fully informed as to what is being
planned and done affecting them at the National
Capital. They should all, therefore, take THE
AMERICAN FARMER, which, being on the ground !,
has better facilities than any other papers for
getting this Information, and deyotes itself to
this duty. They will find in it constantly a
great amount of valuable information that they
can get in no other paper.

WORSE THAN INFAMOUS.
The Democratic Party Deserving OF Com
plete Oblitcration.

plete Oblitcratlon.
From the letter OF President Cleve-
land 10 Mr.. Catchings, of Mississippi,
bearing date August 81, it seems that
the democratic party is indeed q
meaner organization that It's most bit
ter enemies have ever accused IL OF be-
ing The president uses the following
paragraph in his letter:
The trusts and combinations tho commu-
nism Of pclf-whose Vaccinations have pre-
vented MS from reaching the success we dcserv-
cd, should not 90 forgotten or forgiven. We
shall recover from our establishment at their
exhibition OF power. and II then tho question
Is forced upon AS whether thcy shall submit TO
the free legislative Will OF the peoples repre-
sentntives, or shall dictate the laws
which the people must obey, We Will accept
and settle that issue as one involving tho In
tcgrity and safety Of American institutions ="
In careful analysis OF the forcgo-
ing one cannot avoid seeing a veritablo
Jckyll and Hyde duality. The presi-
dent in this sentence arraigns the dem
ocrats OF the senate as guilty Of machi-
nations and combinations deserving OF
such terrible consequences that they
shall never be forgotten or forgiven.
The crime committed by these demo-
Gratis OF the senate is none other than
an agreement upon schedule Of rates
which divides among them the
equities, the sugar trust thrown in.
Perhaps no living person knows more
about how the combines and trusts
managed this diclSer with democratic
senator's than does President Cleve-
land himself BE that rs IL may, how
ever, he understands that crime was
committed, and he SO states in the
foregoing paragraph. We understand
the president, under the constitution,
has the prerogativc OF correcting
wrongs and preventing frauds from
being practiced upon tho people
through legislation, in the right of
veto, which was placed i'm his hands
by the fathers OF the country The
knotty problem 10 the reader OF this
paragraph will be this: IL the senate
is guilty of passing the law, how can
the president escape just ccnsurc for
allowing such an enactment'to become
operative, when he has the power by n
single stroke OF the pen to send IL
back TO congress for correction, amend
ment. etc?
The infamies of the present tariff
law as IL goes upon the statute books,
carrying with il great crime and It's
consequences, the resulting indict-
ment must include the name OF Grover
Cleveland as an accessory after the
fact
IL was fairly TO be presumed that
Grover Cleveland's six years OF cxecu-
tive authority would have taught him
the impossibility of fooling all the
people all the time, though he may be
able 20 fool a part OF the people a part
OF the time; but this letter, which is ia
the form OF an apology for his own
action in allowing this bill 10 become
q law, only shows him as deserving n
greater degree OF condemnation, for in
il he presents a clear analysis OF tho
crime committed, and OF the evil re-
suits which win necessarily attend
the execution OF the democratic tariff
law
