From the Philippines.
Why the Prices NJ Farm Products Have
Advanced and why the Repub-
iican Party Claims Credit.

OMAHA, Aug. 6.-Viewed from n Re.
publican standpoint, the campaign in
Nebraska Is progressing nicely. Chair.
man Lindsay has the machinery in
splendid working order and 10 doing
some very effective work.
Thus far the work has been largely
preparatory, preparations being made
for o vigorous educational campaign,
beginning at an early date and continu.
ing TO the close.
Additions to the list Of speakers are
being made daily and when completed
1t will contain the names of some of the
most eloquent and forceful speakers in
the nation.
The Farmers Vote.
Republican leaders, generally, are
hopeful of receiving a very large vote
from the patrons of h~usbandry. 1t 10 a
matter patent to everybody that the
farmers of Nebraska have been prosper.
Gus to a degree never before attained,
during the last four years under Presi-
dent Mckinley. They have had good
prices for their crops and the yield has
been large. Both of these are essential
to prosperity On the farm. More mort.
cages and debts have been paid off,
more homes have been purchased, more
farm improvements have been made
and better times generally have pre-
vailed in Nebraska the last four years,
than for any other four years in the
history Of the state.
Cause Of Good Pricss.
The Republican party claims, aud
rightfully, too, the credit for prosperity.
It accomplished this in several ways.
the principal causes being in furnishing
employment to American labor ut in
creased wages, and in building up and
extending American trade in foreign
countries. 1t is Il matter Of history that
under Democratic rule free soup houses
had to be maintained i'll nearly all the
large cities Of the United States to allie.
yiatc suffering and distress among the
working classes. Democratic policies
had closed the factories and workshops
and labor was sorely distressed through
want of employment. There are more
than 10000, 900 working people en-
ployed i'll the workshops and factories
of this country. Many of these were
idle a"a those who were not were com.
PEELED to work at reduced wages. There
was, therefore, a large demand Oh public
charity, the ultimate outcome Of which
was the establishment in the large cities
Of free soup houses.
McKinley's election and the conse.
quent overthrow of Democratic policies
was followed by n complete transition,
The factories were opened, labor wa,
given employment at increased wages
the soup houses were closed, and the
demand and consumption of farm pro
ducts and breadstuGs greatly increased
Under Democracy a large per cent OF
the laboring classes lived on free soup
Under Republicanism laboring people
are living on meat, potatoes, canned
goods, breadstuffs, and in short, are
well supplied with all the necessaries Of
life. Today 5000, 900 laboring people
ON their way home from work stop ant
order IA pound or two Of meat, q supply
Of butter, eggs aud other eatables
whereas four years ago many Of thes,
people boarded at free soup houses ant
those who did not lived on scanty RI
tons. This change has greatly in
creased the demand and consumption o
farm products, has increased the pric
Of farm products, and has contribute,
: largely to the prosperity Of the farmer
Of Nebraska and other agriculture
states.
Under Republicanism new market
have been opened up for the product
of American labor and Of America
farms, with the inevitable result tina
l the foreign demand for American Pre-
ducts has i'll the last few years bee
substantially increased. The increas
i'll the price Of farm products and in tn
wages of labor in protected industriC
has in the last four years put into I'll
pockets of the producers of this countr
y upwards of 81, 000, 900, 900, an amour
= almo:t as large as the cost of the civ
war.
It makes u big difference to the farm
\ ers of the United States, in the way
prices. whether the labor element Co
sumes each day 1000, 900 pounds
meat. 5000, 900 loaves of bread, 5,00t
900 pounds of butter. 2,O00, 900 bushe
Of potatoes. 1900. 900 dozens Of eye
and a corresponding volume Of 9th

II is for this reason that the Repu
