are more than ever opposed to his re-
lease. He Is regarded as absolutely

CONGRESS SPEEDING UP.

The house and senate are fully alive
to the fact that they will have to work
more and talk less if they succeed In
adjourning before September The
program as agreed upon few days
ago, if carried out strictly to the letter
will result in an adjournment by Au-
gust 20.
The rural credit bill which was
signed by President Wilson last week
is one of the most valuable acts Of leg
islation the "farmer" has ever received
at the hands of congress. Republican
congresses used to legislate for the
trusts but for the Woodworking
farmer, never. 1t is we'll known that
the farmers, especially in the West
and South, have been compelled to pay
a high rate of interest for farm loans
which are usuallyls, 10, and sometimes
IL per cent.
The administration leaders are con-
sidering the establishment of a
"farmers bureau" which will further
facilitate The securing of loans by
farmers at low rates Of interest.
