BRYAN SAYS FARMERS
Continued from Page One.


lift the average of general intelii-
gence of the farmer. expect those
colleges to equip an increasing num-
Der of young men for public life.
We will read the roll of United
States senators and win find but
two farmers among them
Run down the list of congressman
and you will find but very few
farmers among them. Considering
the people engaged in farming the
farmer has very inadequate repre-
sentation in the national congress.
And what is the result? The result
is that the farmer has been neglect
ed more than any other man and
his interests disregarded more than
the interest Of any other class, and
with this larger training of our
farmers boys and farmers girls
expect to see the farmer associate
himself more and secure a larger
representation in the making of
our laws and the shaping of the
nations policies.
"The discrimination that has been
going on against the farmer has
tended to drive the people from the
forms to the town, and 7 believe
that that symptom is a dangerous
symptom. am going to simply
point out two or three ways in
which It manifests itself Our fed
Cl'al taxation is almost all collected
throulgh methods that bear upon
consumption instead Of possession.
We make the poor man pay more
than his share and the rich man
less than his share, and there has
heretofore been constant drain OF
the farms in the matter of collect
ing taxes and when. the taxes are
appropriated and expended the
money is nearly all spent in the
cities and very little of It upon the
/, farms.
| 'The farmer therefore has NOT
only suffered in paying more than
( his share to the tax collector but
he has been the least benefited di
rectly by the expenditure of the
J money that is raised. Read thr
/ amount spent on ships and ther
figure, If you can, what portion o
/ that gets TO the farmer,
''Take up the other large ap
preparations and with the exception
81 pensions, do not know of an!
hrge appropriation in which tn,
! farmer has anything like his shar
in proportion to his number. Thes
have been some OF the methods o
4 discrimination.
~ believe that with more farm
ers in the councils of the nation
more farmers prepared TO exert al
Influence upon public thought
through the pen and pencil and b
the tongue, that we shall have
change and that that change vii
help to retard, If not to stop tn

/ IAWLESSNESS FOLLOWS DRINK
The city Of Springfield, the capital
of Illinois is patrolled by soldiers
and militiamen as the result Of a
race riot which began the evening
Of August H. From various parts
Of the country come reports of in.
cipient riots due TO the excitement
caused by the conditions at Spring
field.
1t is unnecessary to repeat any
details of these isturbances-the
Caily press will attend sufficiently
20 that. But we would call atten-
ton to the following facts: l. 1t is
known that at least one of the two
negroes whose crimes melted the
riotinIg at Springfield was so COM
pietely under the Influence OF
liquor that ne sank down in a
drunken stupor after running from
the house where he had killed a
white man (This occurred some
weeks ago, and there abs been ex-
citement in the city ever since,
The other, whose deed was the i'm.
mediate cause of the outbreak, is
also declared to have been intoxi-
Gated 2. One of the very first acts
of the mayor after the riot began
! was to order all saloons and disor
! derby houses closed Drug store;
and all other places where liquor
was being sold were also ordered
| closed. g. At this time when the
peace and safety of the city, If MOI
OF many cities. depends upon thu
utmost self-control and implici
obedience to law on the part of oil
citizens 1t has been found necessar,
to arrest fifteen Springfield saloon
keepers for opening their places
of business in defiance of the may
or's order. The conclusions arr

To Put Curtain on Brass Bed.
To slip brass rod through a
freshly starched curtain is not an
easy matter, as every housewife
knows, as the curtain is so apt to
tear. Here are some ways OF over
coming the difficulty; Put the rod
into the curtain before it is ironed
and iron it with the rod in. Another
way is to slip the finger of an old
glove or a thimble over the end of
the rod and then slip it through.
This will prevent the rod from tear
ing the curtain.

HIT and Hart
in Big ORE ZONE

The Hit & Hart tunnel on the
Orc Belle No. / continues to prove
the sensation of the camp. The work
ing is now in about so feet and the
mineral zone has not yet been passed
through. Not over ten feet of bar
rem rock has been encountered dur
ing the progress of driving the tun-
mel. Rock running as high as 5000
per ton has been taken out, and three
feet assaying 1914 per ton is a show
ing equalled by but few mines in the
country
The strike mentioned in these col
umns last week continues to hold out
with drifting, and it can be conserv-
atively stated that five feet of the ore
will average 5000 per ton. A drift
is now being run on this bonanza
shoot, while the work of driving the
tunnel further is also in progress. II
is the opinion of Messrs. Hart and
Hit that the entire mountain top is
|
a huge.mineral zone, and apart from
the streaks of high grade, the bal
ance of the ore will average from $1E
to $40 per top.
The present developments are
more in the nature of prospecting the
extent of the ore zone. The mair
workings will probably be located OF
the west side, where ideal tunnel anC
mill sites can be obtained. However
this has not been decided upon ant
instead of running tunnel lowe
down the hill the owners may sinl
a shaft, and then crosscut for the or,
zone, at good depth.

ore has >been taken out since tn
tunnel was started, while consider
