NO USE FOR THE FARMER.

congressman from Tennessee. Prob.
ably no legislation more grossly I'M
Just and discriminative has ever been
placed on our statute books than the
Underwood tariff law in its relation to
the interests Of the farmer. Some pro-
lection, though inadequate, has been
left to the manufacturer, but the farm
err has been placed on an absolutely
free-trade basis with foreign countries
that possess cheaper lands, cheaper
labor and, in some instances, cheaper
transportation rates to our coastwise
cities than he possesses.
When the Glass currency bill was
being considered. many of US impor-

clude a system of rural credits legis-

the reply that the question OF farm

we were assured that a bill would be
drafted satisfactory to farmers or

present session OF congress. Nothing
has ever been done to redeem the
promise. and no relief has been al
forded the farmer in the general cur

to lower the cost OF living for the
benefit Of those living in cities, the
farmer has been left to shift for him
self and, as usual. to bear the burden.
He has been modest in his requests,
but even these have been ignored.
The treatment accorded him has been
unwarranted aad unjust. He will ex-
press his resentment when the oppor-

THE FARMERS POLITICAL.
PRIMER.

THE FARMERS POLITICAL.
PRIMER.
What does the farmer do?
He raises crops.
What for?
To sell.
To sell to whom?
Not to other farmers,
But to other people in different In
dustries.
His consumers are
Workingmen in mills. mines and
shops,
Railroad men,
Factory men and women,
Clerks in stores and offices,
And all other men and women
Who do not raise crops.
These constitute the great Ameri
can market.
The farmer sells at home, to home
folks.
His foreign market is little Or moth
ing,
Only four per cent of all he sells
So when
All his American customers
Are at work and on pay roll,
They buy the farmers crops.
Then they've got money to buy
with,
And the more men at work
The greater the demand
For what the farmer raises,
And in good times
The farmer can't raise enough
To supply the demand,
Because, then
Factories are running,
Mills are running,
Mines are running.
Trains are running,
Then men are employed.
Wages are high,
Employment Is plenty,
Industry Is universal.
Under prosperous conditions
When everybody has work and
wages,
Farm products bring good prices.
BUT
When industry slows down,
And men are out OF work.
They can't buy
The farmers crops,
Even IL he does raise them.
So,
Should not the farmer vote
To stop the present Industrial stag
nation
And to restore
Republican prosperity?

PEACE ON THE FIELD.

PEACE ON THE FIELD.
"Peace?" Who dare say "Peace?"
Death bars his path. Our dead
Would cry him down. Revenge
Cries, Back! work my will
And may not be denied
Blood calls for blood, and Hate
Hard plies her goad.
Christ speaks?"
He speaks too late. His voice
Is drowned by lannon's roar.
MEN pray for peace?" Not here,
Deaths realm. We run amok
On trampled field. We die.
But, dying, seek to tear
Each from foe his life.
Our, world is madness, swept
BY battle blasts. The rain
Is steel and flame, and hot
With death and agony
OF rending wounds.
Not peace,
But added strength to slay
We crave.
Peace" say you? There our dead
Cry out for vengeance. "Peace?"
Lord God of Battle, give
Us power to break our foes!
We pray thee arm MS with
Thy might. Our country lies
A smoking wreck Our women
Wall their slain. Salt tears
Are bitter in our mouths.
"Peace?''
Look! They come, that mass
OF gray from out the wood.
Turn loose the guns! The switch.
Throw on the current! See
The red govt where mine
Engulfs regiment.
The shrapnel mows them down
Up. Fire at will!
Christ,
Help me! How 1t burns! A flame
Leaps in my side.
"No chance?
I'm gomez Give me that gun,
And prop me in the trench!
Come, hurry, man!
