shrinkage Of $525,OOO.OO0 from the
four proceeding Republican years. Next
followed the first four years Of Nc
Kinley, with q rise In the farm value
|of the wheat crop TO $1,464,000. 1000. an
increase Of nearly 4%b00,000.oo0. Dur

ing the second Cleveland administrn-
ton. During three pears Of the pres
emit Roosevelt administration the farm
value Of the wheat crop has aggre-
gated 31,563,0 oo. 000,lndicataing that
the dlgures DOR the four years will
pass the two Thousand million mark.
The oat crop showed y similar in
crease In value to the farmer under
Republican administration and de-
crease In Democratic years. During
the four years OF the first Cleveland
Democratic administration the oat
crop was worth to the farmer $751;
000, 1000. For the next four years Of
Harrison's Republican administration
the crop reached 1886, 900, 900. Thea
came another four years Of Democra-
cy, with an pat crop worth to the
farmer only 369s, 900, 900. Then FOL

Now we pass to the farmers live

Not only has the farming industry
reached a degree OF prosperity under
Republican rule which would have
seemed incredible a few years ago, but
there is abundant indication that pres
ent prosperity will be Tar exceeded

tinue.

might happen should Bryan admhnis-
tration be installed at Washington.
The change for the 0 for the far
mer , as dor American workers in.
every line Of activity, when Cleveland
succeeded Harrison In 1893 indicates
very plainly what the farmer could
expect should the American republic
be treated to another dose Of Democra-
tic misgoyernment.
The figures are from the records,
both Republican and Democratic, OF
the department OF agriculture at Wash
|tngton. They are simply public rec
ors. But they appeal to the American
farmers with a force that no oratory
can equal. Here they are:
The farm value for the corn crops
for the four yearh OF Cleveland's first
administration, from 1885 to 1888. ag-
gregated $2,570,00o,o 600. In the four
years Of the. Republican Harrison)
administration which followed, the
farm value of the corn crop aggregat-
ed $2,831, 900, 900, an increase in value
OF more than $26o,0o0, 900, over that
Of this crop under the proceeding
Cleveland administration.
Then followed -four years of
Cleveland and Democracy, and during
those four years Of Democratic rule
the farm value Of the corn crop aggre-
gated $2.1s2, 100000, q decrease Of
$649, $1,000, from the aggregate value
during the four years Of the Republi-
can administration which had just pre-

was, of course, far greater, tor had a
Republican administration been in
power there would undoubtedly have
been an dncrease in the value OF the
corn crop Of hundreds Of millions of
dollars.
Nor was the farmers loss on &C
count of the latest experiment with
Democratic rule confined to corn.

for the four years Of Cleveland's first
