THE FARMERS UNION.

The Farmers Union is capable of
doing great good, and if operated on wise
lines it will prove itself stronger than the
money power. The farmers mnst pull
together and see that the wealth and
power OF the few shall be turned to the
uses and benefit of the many. The
farmers should strive to get control Of
governmental affairs into the hands of
the people, and change our farming
educational methods to reach the masses.
Some advise that we should keep out
of politics: | say stay ia. Stop sending so
many lawyers t. the Legislature. If
farmers are not qualified, educate them.
Ii your Congressman does not serve your
interests. unite against him. Make t e
legislative bodies force publicity on the
corporation, anil punish the violators OF
the law among the wealthy and powerful
as severely and as surely as they do
among III. poor and weak.-T. E. s,r.

A Surprise.

While everybody was at the Opera
House last Friday night listening to
the home play, "All a Mistake,' the
Petty Bros. were busy preparing a big
surprise for all who came their way,
for their store windows were covered
with signs telling of a closing out sale
and going out OF business, and at first
the folks thought it vas all a mistake,
but you will see by their address on
the first page that they mean business,
and a visit to their stores will con-
vince you that they have the good:
and have made the prices, with the
tariff off. No necessity for any man
in Versailles wearing patched pants
or ragged Goa: and vest, this winter.
