The Rural Credits Law

When the remarkable record of leg
islative achievement of the Wilson ad-
ministration is reviewed the rural
credits law will rank first in the minds
of many and among the greatest in the
opinion of all 1t is of more value to
the farming population of the country,
the basic element of the nation, than
all the legislation in their behalf
passed by the republicans in the last
half century.
The farmer can give the best secur-
ity in the world. 1t cannot be lost,
hidden or destroyed, or permanently
injured. Bad management may cause
manufacturing, mercantile, railroad
or other stock to drop from 5000 a
share to far below par. There are no
such fluctuations in land values; thev
are stable and enduring. Farm loans
suffer under one disadvantage
are not liquid, not Immediately or
readily converted into cash.
The trouble has always been that
our laws and our banking rules and
regulations have been adapted only
to the needs of the capitalists, mer-
chants and business generally which
only require short time loans, but
have not been adapted to the borrow
ing needs Of the farmers. But the
evil is now cured and the lack provided
for by the rural credits law.

Such Letters as This Are Coming Daily
to White House.
July 90, 1916.
My Dear Mr.. PRESIDENT
1t is not necessary that l should
bother you with a communication. and
it does not need a reply. l am not
seeking political favors or preferment,
but desire to say for your information
that some Progressives absolutely re-
fuse to have their acts guided or con-
trolled.
l am a native of Illinois. | estab-
Iished the A. M. Webster company of
Peoria, ILL.,, and it is now owned and
controlled by my son, who is engaged
in handling farm properties. For
twenty-five years have advocated just
such a rural credit bill as you have
signed. 1 am highly pleased and not
only pleased with this act, but many
more aC,s since you have been our
president.
l was born in a Republican home
and rocked in a Republican cradle. l
did not vote for you; but, being dis
gusted with many Republican rulers
Of our state and nation, l joined the
Progressive party and still hold to Pro
gressive principles. Owing to the fact.
however, that the men who stood 10y
ally by Theodore Roosevelt and the
Progressive party were finally dumped
into the scrap basket and as we have
since been grossly insulted by having
Progressive leaders tell us that we
must go back to the G. O. P. in order
to save the nation from Democratic
misrule and disaster, l balk.
Mr.. President your administration
has satisfied me- | could give innu-
merable reasons why this is so. but to |
the point | have appointed myself |
as a committee of one to vote for you |
and the Democratic ticket in Novem-
Der and do what little l can toward |
bringing Democratic success.
May God bless you in your every eff /
fort and guide your every act Yours /

that gives cheer o-friends of that long
suffering republic.
Americans coming from that country
bring optimistic assurances. They de
clare that there is much better gov
eminent there than for many years,
that CarranZa money is increasing In
value, that business is picking up and
that law is being respected.
The New York Evening Sun, a Re
publican newspaper, which usually crit
icises everything President Wilson
does, is compelled to recognize the
facts telegraphed from San Antonio.
Tex, by William G.. Shepherd, war
correspondent of the United Press. who
has been one of the keenest observers
Of conditions both in Europe and Mex
leo. Mr.. Shepherd, back from a long
service abroad, was sent recently to
the Mexican border After a careful
survey he reported conclusions which
the Sun displays under the head
ing: Mexico Coming Back-Business
Grows Brisk-COnfidence In Carranza
Increases, and Things Look Up" In
part Mr. Shepherd says:
Mexico is coming back. It's not
a dead rubber nation. It's got a
bounce In it.
A summary of the news from the
heart Of Mexico gathered in the
last three weeks along the border
from Americans incoming from
Mexico shows beyond doubt that
conditions are improving, conf
dence in Carranza is growing, the
situation is gaining buoyancy, Car
rama money is gaining in value.
and business is picking up.
