the following on its cover page:

"It southern politicians ignore
these facts and keep on playing with

they will have no one but themselves
TO blame for their inevitable over

"The many people of the South
who are protectionists at heart owe it

millions of people. The fact that ne .e

a feeling of the perversity and hcfle-

Perhaps one reason for this wide

the fact that millions of farmers boys
have always found them their heredi-

Woodchuck impudently burrows at
the edge Of the garden, on which ne
