Does the American farmer desire perpetuaton Of
Democratic rule in House and Senate?
Unjust discrimination has been practced against the
farmers fthe North Midde-Wes and West BY the pre-
sent Democatic Congress- favor of Southern products
Ibis has been done by the Southern Democratic cotere
now in absolute control of House and Senate and by the
Democratic National Administration.
A price has been fixed wheat but not on cotton or
rice both purely southern products Wheat by act of the
DEMOCRATIC Congress is fixed at S2lO. With no price
hXed on wheat 1t Is the general opinion that the grain
would bring far the farmer than 81 TO- The diff
terence in the price OF wheat fixed by Democratic
Congress and Democratic Administration and an open
market is the difference in hard cash that the Northern
Mid Wesern and Western wheat farmer doesn't get a
total that would amount hundreds of millions of dol

millions would not his loss. Hardly any wool is
produced in the South.
price has been fixed coal Most of the coal is mined
in the North and Middle West.
But price has been fixed on lumber another principal
product of the Southern States.
How long does the wheat farmer the wool grower and
the coal producer intend to allow Democratic Congress
iona discrimination in favor of the and plant
and the lumbermen Of the Southern States.
The discrimination against every other section of the
country in favor Of the South is the only way in
which the present Democratic Congress has worked for
its favored Section.

and the chairmen Not only do they collect most of the
