FARMERS AND LABOR.

The dispatches tell us that national
organization Of farmers, known as the
American Society of Equity, has been
granted limited affiliation with the
American Federation of Labor. This
looks like a sort of farmers union or
trust 1t would seem that the genial ag-
rieulturist could have little in common
with labor unions. The farmer, as a
rule is the most independent man on
earth. He labors hard, it is true, but he
works for himself. The fruits of his toll
are gathered into his own storehouses
his hired men are members Of no union.
If the farmer should go into a SYM
pathetic strike what would happen to
the country? But the thought is alb
surd. The farmer is not going into a
strike of any sort. He cannot be blam-
ed for organizing, if by organization he
can get better prices for his products
But the history of farmers organ
izations has shown that they do not hold
together for any considerable length of
time. The members bind themselves to-
gether but they don't stay bound.
The National Grange was a farmers
organization that enjoyed brief period
of prosperity, but there is no record of
any lasting good that it achieved for
its members. In the nature of things
the farmer must work out his salvation
practically single handed. He is large
ly dependent upon his own toll for sue
cess. He is independent, in large
measure. of everybody else. The farmer
enjoys the great advantage of possess
PEELED to buy.
If every farmer in the United States
should join a union. or society and
agree not sell his products except at
a certain figure the combination would
have the power to treble the cost of liv-
ing inside of thirty days. But no such
com bination is possible. The country is
too big. There have been practically alb
solute crop failures in some states in
the same year with abundant crops in
other states. The men with the abund-
ant crops can hardly be expected TO
let them rot in order to give those
with very small crops a chance to make
money. The proposition is not even al
truistic. 1t is almost criminal
The limited utilization with the Amer
lean Federation of Labor will work well
for the labor men but poorly for the
farmers. The latter will be expected to
demand the union label on things they
buy but the labor man will hardly look
for that label on apples, potatoes, corn
peaches and such other products of the
farm as they NAV buy at first hand.

ORDER WILL STAND.

President Roosevelt has cabled from
Ancon, Panama, that unless it can be
shown that the facts as known to him
that led to his order discharging a bat
talon of the Twenty-fifth Infantry,
colored, are shown TO be false, he will
under no circumstances revoke the ord
er. The president thus shows his dis
approval of the genius Americans
''buttinsky." According to Washington
advices the war department has been
deluged with kilograms of protest
against discharging the negro soldiers.
A great many of them have been in
. cited by the Afro-American league,
(which has employed attorneys for the
purpose of working up public sentiment.

this battalion is doing. More, it has de-

The negro soldiers in the regular
army have made a most honorable re-
cord. Whenever the occasion has ar
risen they have fought as bravely as
men could fight. In the war with Spain
they were tried by fire and they meas

had an experience with negro soldiers
when the Twenty-fourth Infantry was
