WERE BuNCoED.

The jefferson county rice farmers who
were induced to vote the republican ticket
by the promise of protection from the com
petition of rice grown by the pauper labor
of Europe are just now experiencing a
feeling similar to that elation enjoyed
BY the sucker. after discovering that the
gold brick hJ purchased for song is
naught but brass or copper. II is true
that the rice farmer was not overlooked
when the Dingley BILL that great gitaiizer
OF infant industries. was being compounded
in the big republican apothecary, but the
jefferson county farmer is just at present
incapable of figuring out just where he Is
benefited. To use ting language Of one OF
these horny handed sons OF toll "repub-
liean protection In 80 far as 1t promises
protection TO the producer is id pre-
meditated, cold blooded fraud The price
for rice under the benelcent influences OF
the Dngley bill is what is agitating the
gentleman who used the language quoted
above. For more than ten days he has
been endeayoring to sell his rice and the
best offer received has been S3.25 per sack.
From this price the bids ranged down 10
$3.50. During the harvest time last year
and when 1t was extremely doubtful as TO
whether or not the American product
was to be protected from rice raised by
pauper labor In poverty stricken, free
silver countries, this same rice farmer was
receiving from $3.50 to 1915 per sack for
his rice at the thresher, aud the quality
was not so good as the rice for which he
is offered $325 per sack this year. The
price prevailing this year can not be
charged to oyerprs duction. either. for the
best statistics obtalnable evidence that the
present American crop is but little more
than half of what 1t was last year. While

from Lincoln TOWNSHIP, yesterday,
and paid us a visit. When askc d

and robbed in some of the blck al.
legs of the city. "Oh!" says B II,
