ANEM EARMERs, PAKTY.

IL is said that the farmers OF Illinois
have set about organizing new party
with a view TO promoting their own
interests They declare that agriculture
lies az the basis OF all prosperity, and
that the farmer is not getting his FAIR
share of the wealth which is produced.
they demand. therefore that the farmer
shall have equal representation with
other branches OF industry in the govern
ment. and that there shall be legislation
in the farmers interest.
We do not dispute either Of the pro-
positions FIRST stated. but it is great
mistake for the farmer to suppose that
his interests are TO be promoted by any
special legislation that may be enacted
in his favor The Chicago Chronicle well
saws i'm this connection that what the
farmers needs is not more class legisla-
ton. but the repeal of ali class iegisla-
ton: that he does not need more law,
bat less law. Ali that he needs indeed is
COR the government TO stand by the prln-
eiples OF the constitution, giving special
advantage TO none, but giving 20 each
and every class and TO each and every
citizen the same opportunities with every
other class and every other ciuzon to
earn a livelihood and to accumulate
wealth.
In our imperfect manner We have tried
10 convince the people that no class is
Z, be made rich by legislation except at
the expense Of ali other CLASSES. We
have tried to get it our OF the he ds OF
The people that prosperity is to come to
this country and 10 them through legis-
lative onactments through free silver and
unlimited greenbacks and sub-treasury
and bonded warehouse schemes and all
sorts OF propositions Of that kind which
have been made. all with the idea OF
creating prosperity by artificial means. II
