miller are all, in my opinion, doing the
best they can for US, and have proved it,
time and again, by.their ledgers. They
are anxious for our success, and simply
because 4 few do wrong 1t is an outrage
to brand all as swindlers, as you un-
doubtedly would have us do. ! know
some farmers who are careless about
their debts--except to make them as
large as possible others who have
loose notions as to the right TO propertyP
Does that argue that all farmersare dis
honestp No, sir; by no means. Neither
are all business men dishonest because
q few attempt a monopoly. ! believe
there are scores Of local business men
wholesale and retail merchants and other
business who are as honest as you or I.
The yrongdoers are the capitalists who
have syndicated the manufactures OF
machinery and merchandise and are try
ing to drive small producers out OF busi-
ness.
Then there are the dealers in futures,
who sell the products of our farms one
to twelve months alphabetically gam
bling on the output and prices. And
how are you going to call a halt and stop
them from controlling the result OF your
labor9 In other words, how are you
going to obtain any more for your sur
plus product than they are willing to
payP
Now, brothers, come square up to the
issue in your next, and please don't di-
agnose my case any further, for don't
need your plaster, and am afraid OF a

A Farmer Comes Back.

Mr.. EDTToa---I must ask your valuable
space. once more, in order to show my
brother farmers respect and recognition,
but I must frankly admit my astonish-
ment at their inconsistency.
They start out BY asking me quite
lot Of questions, in order, they say. TO
diagnose my case; but 1t seems the true
object was to take up all my space in
answering their nonessential questions.
In order TO crafty them l will answer:
In the first place, they want to know II !
inherited my farmP No, ! bought and
paid for It out Of my earnings at honest
labor. II | am engaged in any mercan-
tile or mechanical business? No, OF no
character. Ill put in full time, in man
ual labor, on the farmP No, and neither
do believe they do, although was al
ways considered hard worker. My
average crops OF wheatP From 10 to
Is bushels per acre. Do use fertil-
izersP Yes, clover and barn manure;
what every intelligent, practical farmer
would do. II am an aspirant to officeF
No, positively no!
believe the foregoing answers all
Of your questions, evidently intended to
evade an argument TO the point. Nei-
ther you nor any other member OF your
order can, by any sort of figuring, show
how blacksmith gets $40 out Of keg
Of horse shoes, as has been asserted;
but as you say you have smiths in your
order perhaps they are the fellows who
are doing the goHging- all in the fam
lily, you see. l know what a keg costs
and what Is charged for fitting, and that
others don't get $40 out Of it, and your
speakers are driven to extreme lengths
In order 10 induce the unthoughted and
matchmaking farmer or artisan to join
your order, then to what extent must we
suppose he Is Influenced in fighting q
business that is more lucrative than that
Of the blacksmith?
Again, II you are 80 friendly to the
local business men Of the country wsy
do you make such ridiculous chargel
against them in your public specchesi
And why do you 30 indiscriminateiy
brand all merchants and millers as dis
honest simply because you oryour three
friends didn't happen 70 nnd a mill thai
would turn all your wheat to flour anC
give II 10 you7
This is what am fighting. No on

and eontendlng for their hsrd-earne'
