We Are Queer Eolks

Bloomfield Republican: We are
queer folks, especially the farmer
folks. The editor remembers with
good reason. when corn was selling
al fifteen cents a bushel, for he was
engaged at that time in the agricul-
tural pursuit during the panic years
IN the early nineties. Oats were about
the same price and that, too, in the
face Of bad crops, the poorest we
ever raised. Wheat was about fifty
cents and people scofged at the very
idea Of dollar wheat Land was held
from s20 to $50 an acre and was slow
sale al that price. It took good
horse 10 bring s75. A good heifer
would bring fifteen to twenty dollars.
COWS TWENTY-FIVE and thirty; hogs
we're around three to four dollars per
hundred.
And We blamed the Cleveland adj
ninigtration for the low prices and
Populigts" multiplied and Bryan,s
free coinage Of silver, 10 to L.
swept over the country. Prices were
too low Thousands of men out of
employment. Coxey's ragged army
paraded the streets of the national
capital II was the result of low tar
if-go the wise ones said.
Now the farmers-and all the rest
Of us, for It's the fashion-a are kicking
about the high prices. Fact, The
same land that sold fifteen years ago
for sz5 70 so per acre is selling now
from 800 to sI25. A good spring colt
will bring s75; just ordinary farm
aorgeg $50 TO 800; a fairly good
cor viii bring from $40 to $50; hogs
are from eight 10 nine dollars per
hundred; corn sixty cents and oats
forty.hye cents, and wheat about a
dollaf-and We are blaming the Taft
administration and the tariff and the
trusts for The high prices, And act
naliy me farmers are among the
kickegg. The local editor passed q

TWO PRAYERS

The Williamsburg Journal tells of
a Republican who drew apart FROM his
party workers who were giving a
faithful repres entation of Donnybrook
Fair, or the famed felines of Kilken-
ney. and prayed as follows:
20 Lord. save us from ourselves.
1t was always sport for us 20 take
care OF our ancient enemy but the
trial through which We are now pass
ing is beyond our skill and we i'm
plore Thy help. Strike the insur-
gents with niaety-day numbness,
lest their aspic tongues goad US TO
deeds desperate and damned And,
0 Lord. blind the regulars until har-
vest time so that in their helpless
ness their wandering wisdom may
again return Blot out our past. o
Lord, from the minds of men-and
do it now-or We go yelping, splitting,
Sc appins, snarling into quarrelsome
grave.
On the same authority. a Democrat
drew aside from love-feast and
prayed thus:
20 Lord my heart swells with joy
al the turning of the tide that land
ed US out in the desert of Defeat.
The winter of our discomfort is be-
ing made glorious and we appear TO
have the G. o. P. elephant by the
tail and on a down hill pull But. o
Lord, once, twice, yea. several times
have we lost our grip AT the very col
umn OF Victory Therefore, make us
wise, teach us to forget Palmer and
Buckner. the Cross OF Gold. 16 to 1.
Imperialism, free trade and all the
frothy runnings at the mouth that
made our oratory subiimely ridieu-
lous. Thou knowest. o Lord. our in
clination TO foolishness, orr predispo-
sition TO chase the nimble rainbow
our proneness TO pirate in populistic
pipe-dTeams: cure US of all this
and then watch us do the rest
