BY People Against Governmc
Meat Inspection.

1t was learned today on reliable i.
formation that the farmers of Way

ganization with the object in view {
boycotting the merchants of this eli
For the past two weeks several inflJ
ential farmers in the neighborhood
Richmond have been at work int
esting their brother agriculturists
this movement and it is stated tha
the organization now includes at leas
twothirds Of the farmers in the cOui
Ly.
The cause of the attack that zis~b-7
ing made on the merchants is the ar
ton of the local authorities in enfor.
Ing the meat inspection OrdinanC
which prevents the farmers from SCI
ing their uninspeCted meat produce
here, and the present agitation to haN
all milk inspected under federal s.
pervisOn ! fore it can be offered ft
sale in Richmond.
The next move on the part Of I'll
people of Richmond we take it, wi.
be the enactment of an ordinance
have the eggs and garden produce il
spected before the farmers can sell
in the city" said a we'll known farm
er today. If the citizens of Ric!
mond desire TO boycott the farmers

perfect right to boycott the merchant
of Richmond" he added.
Farmers in the Richmond boycott
league have arranged to secure thei
necessary supplies in the smallc
towns of the county and from mail o.
der houses Farmers living in the vi
cinity of ttichmOnd plan to receiv
their supplies from foreign concerns
who will ship these supplies into Rich

The past week an agent for d large
Chicago mail order house canvasset
the county and received enough order
to fill two cars. A Dayton cOncer,
will this week ship to Richmond ca
load of dry goods.
If the boycott against the busines

IN MOST EVERY CASE MEN WHO
RECEIVED SANCTION OF PRESI-
DENT, FAVORED THEIR HOME
STATE CANDIDATE.
HIS ONLY COERCION,
Office Holders, Was Only to Pre-

Term Candidate.

False and malicious" says the
president. is any statement that he
has useG the federal patronage to ad-
vance the political interests of Secrc-
tary of War Taft. He not only
p.eads Not guilty. to that charge
oft repeated III the halls of congress
by other republican presidential can
didates and their friends. but defies
them to produce the specifications.
His defense of himself is contained
in letter to William Dudley Foulke
OF this city. a former member of the
civil service commission, who had
written to him to ask whether it was
true, as reported. that he was pros
tituting federal patronage to carry out
political bargains
Opened up the Way.
Foulke opened up the way for the
president to "sideswipe" the Vice
president by quoting the charges of
the misuse of patronage as they ap
to observe that one of these newspa-
pers controlled by relatives or friends
of Mr.. Fairbanks. He also took pains
TO observe that one O fthese newspa-
pers had close connections with Wall
street, so as TO place, if possible. the
reactionary brand upon the Indiana
candidate. 1t remains 10 be seen
whether this will be resented by the
Vice president or his Supporters
IL
opportunity. it will be observed by
those who read the appended corre-
spondence. to give the Secretary Of
War another good dose in his canvass
for which Mr. Taft's friends should be
duly grateful. He undertakes also to
belittle the fact that contesting delega-
tions to the national convention have
boen selected in Florida. and that
there is a good prospect of similar ri
Nalries i'll other southern states by
asserting that the boiling conventions
will be organized by men who wanted
federal offices. but could not get them
because of unfitneSs. He assumes
that the pro-Taft delegation chosen at
St Augustine on Friday is regular and
L
regular. although necessarily the Ma
tional committee will have TO decide
that point.
Comes as a Surprise.
1t will probably surprise most peo-
pie to hear that the president believes
most of the federal office holders in
Ohio are not or have not been in favor
Of the nomination of Mr.. Taft. Doubt
loss. also. the question will be raised
as to how literally his edict of June
u. 1902, to which he refers. placing an
inhibition upon office holders not to
control political movements should
be interpreted. This should be Of par
