WHY THE FARMERS DESERT
M'KINLEY.

News comes from the Republican
headquarters in Chicago that 1.-The rus
tics are lukewarm." Mr.. Payne, who
is acting chairman in the absence of
Hanna, said:
Reviewing the campaign reports
which have been received in person
and by letter | can say that they
are encouraging from the cities in
the Western States, but it is a fact
and there is 40 use denying it that
back in the agricultural regions of
Minnesota. Iowa. the Dakotas, and
Kansas there is lnkewarmness to-
ward the Republican ticket on ac-
count of the money question. Very
hard and active work is needed in
all the States west Of the Missis-
sippi river to win. The votes that
BExanswill get in. Wisconsin viii be
scasered =
Tkeresis no virtue in the adfnission
becalise what Mr.. Payne admits is
widely Aslessn, There is a reason for
this, and it has not been anywhere
stated with more force than in a
speech by Ex-Governor Boies at Water,
loo, Iowa. on, Saturday. We quote:
''AIr. Mckinley has taken the pains
to allege that an appeal has been made
to the classes and an attempt made
to divide the country on the silver
issue. BY the very nature Of things
there must be classes.
II said to n reporter for New York
paper" continued the speaker, THAT
the condition of the Western farmer
IarRInt.nJala That tina Nf Tar(u
ducts of the farm are so low that If
a man was given the use of the land
and was required to furnish the CAPT.
tai TO run it, pay the laborer, the same
wages he could get in other kinds of
work, keep up the repairs and pay the
taxes, and to do this had to sell the
products of the farm for present prices,
he would find himself without dollar
left at the end of the year"
Il said that, and now / find certain
New York capitalists declaring that a
greater amount of falsehoods was never
included in the same amount of lam
guage. Now / did not make that
statement upon my own experience
alone, but several years ago the Iowa
Commissioner of Labor made inquiry
of over five hundred Iowa farmers OF
the cost of raising one bushel of corn.
They sent him reports and from them
he found that it cost .28-s cents per
busheF to raise corn in Iowa. To-day
in over one-half of the State corn is
selling for IA cents per bushel"
The speaker then took up the ques-
ton of prices and said it was all a
question of prices. The honor of the
country was not involved for the reason
that the government obligations were
payable in. coin.

CARRYING OUT HANNA's ORDERS

All the Republican politicians who
have so far spoken have declared for
gold. Senator Pritchard was careful
not to make any announcement of his
conversion until he got all the big ones
together at Waynesville and induced
them TO recant in chorus. Every one
of them had been talking silver at the
top of their voice for years, but when
Pritchard pitched Mark Hanna's song
Nothing But Cold Pearson and Rus
sell and Metto and Walser and the rest
Joined in the chorus. he had already
taken Xxi Gudger, who left the Demo
cratic party because Cleveland was hos
tile to silver, into the mountains of
Madison county, showed him Hanna's
orders, and put a new song into Ki's
mouth. On Saturday Col. James E..
Boyd made fun of the advocates OF
free coinage, and pronunced McKin-
Iey's letter in favor of gold the greatest
State paper he had read.
Hanna's orders are being obeyed
