jplundering them, why should not they
emulate the trusts and corporations
and put their own price on their own
products like the trusts dot Instead Of
selling their wheat, corn and cotton at
the price the buyers offer. why not
hold 1t until the buyers como around
and are willing to pay a profitable
price7
Why, 1t looks just as easy a. falling
OF a log. or sliding down the cellar
door that little grease has made
slick and slippery. All you have to do,
say the leaders, Is to, refuse to sell
until you get your price, One dollar

pound for cotton and the price of other
products in proportion. Eurekal the
world is ours, IL we only hang to-
gether. Everything we buy Is on the
boom, from agricultural machinery to
zinc paint Why can't the farmers do
the same?
The trouble is the farmer, unlike the
tariff protected trusts and combines,
has no monopoly. His wheat Is sold
at the price Of the worlds market, ac-
cording to supply and demand. All the
surplus wheat of all the countries goes
to the markets of other countries that
do not produce enough to supply their
own wants. II there Is scarcity the
price rules high; II there are bumper
crops the world over, the price is low,
II all the surplus we raise in the
United States was kept at home, when
ether countries had good crops, there
would probably still be enough to sup.
Fly the Liverpool market, which rules
the worlds price. In that case, with
nearly 100000, 600 bushels Of wheat on
our hands more than we could con.

Choosing q Political Party.
The universities and colleges and
high schools are again sending out
thousands Of young men equipped, as
far as education can arm them, to
fight life's battle. They will enter into
every profession and business and must
struggle for living with the older
and more seasoned army that has
preceded them. Many of these young
men, especially from the law schools,
will enter upon political careers; and
oil will have to decide upon the politi-
cal party they will support. Those
that are honest and true, and nearly
all young men are 80 until contain.
mated, will naturally turn from corrup-
ton and grating; and some, at least,
will strive to correct those terrible
evils that have 90 vastly dimmed the
luster of the party in power Family
tiles and associations naturally have
great influence in deciding the politi.
cal course Of young men about to cast
their first vote. The bias of the teach
ers of economics has led many to look
on but one side Of political issues, and
hence many young men ar every apt to
decide their political future without
due investigation Of both sides of the
great political questions that divide
the parties.
As the Democratic party has every
thing to gain BY the investigation and
publicity Of Its contentious and being
the great historic party Of the nation,
Its principles should be thoroughly
scrutinized and given due weight be-
fore decision is arrived at
The fundamental doctrine Of Democ-
racy is: Equal rights to all and spe-
cial privileges to none" Democrats
believe In home rule and that every
community has the right to decide its
local issues and the amount OF the
local taxation. To decide upon munich
pal ownership and the regulation Of
the liquor trafic and such other local
matters as affect the community. All
these under Democratic rule are set
tied as majority of legal voters may
decide.
The great national questions Of tho
tariff; subsidies to corporations and
individuals; regulation of railroad
rates and control Of trusts and com.
bines; the management Of the finances
of the country; the rights of capital
and labor; the question of Individual
Ism, or socialism militarism; Imperial
ism; taxation without representation,
all must be investigated before the
young man can fairly decide with
whom he will politically ally himself.
As government is the chief agency
and adjunct Of civilization, It Is entire
~ worthless unless 1t protects life and
property and provides liberty without
license. A government which takes
from the people by taxation more mon
ey than is needed to defray the ex-
penses Of the public business econom-
ically administered, or takes money
from the many in order to favor and
enrich the few, by indirection, under
the false pretense Of protecting labor,
commits robbery and fraud, and u un-
Democratic.
