ANOTHER FARM BLOC"

The Texas Legislature has its farm
bloc" Now perhaps the tillers of the soil
in this great agricultural state, reading
Of the goings-on at Austin, can imagine
how Caesar felt when he beheld his pro-
fessed friend, Brutus, with the rest of his
'assassins. This may exaggerate the situa-
ton somewhat; but just consider a few
facts before jumping to that conclusion.
Lawmakers throughout the country
have been protesting, as though their
souls salvation depended upon it, great
and profound friendship for the farmer
They have made more speeches on his
needs, as they see them, than on any other
single subject of the times. They have
talked as though everybody but them
selves was his enemy. They have adj
vised him, they have admonished him,
they have promised him relief, they have
pledged him more aid than any power
save Providence could render, they have
legislated in his alleged behalf-and still
he is in about the same position, so far
as the effects of their efforts are con-
Ccrned, as the one he occupied before
they began to declare themselves as his
friends. & Ea
While the farmer has received little
benefit from such vocal activities. it is
not to be assumed that they have done
him no harm. Mere promises inflict a
negative injury in that they waste time
and energy that might have been spent
for constructive purposes. The farmers
themselves might have taken more posi-
tive measures on their own account had
they not been laboring under the illusion
that their legislative friends" would solve
their problems.
Some of the legislation enacted osten-
sibly for the benefit of the farmer could
not but have exactly the opposite effect.
There was the so-called emergency tariff
law, for example; ard now we have the
Fordney-McCumbcr tariff act, which, in
stead of helping the farmer as its authors
and supporters said it would, contracts
the markets available to him.
Nearly every government official in the
country, from the President down. has
profesSed an anxious regard for the farm
er's welfare. But how many measures of
actual benefit to him have been adopted
Not many. In most of the projects
launched by legislators, the impossible
has been undertaken. Many of the law
makers have been so prcsumptuous and
egotistical and ignorant as 10 try to set
aside economic laws.
What has been done for the actual
benefit Of the farmers Of the United States
is due most largely to their own efforts
and to those Of non-governmental organi-
cations. In some states the farmers have
formed cooperative societies, and placed
their affairs on something like a business
basis. Isn't it about time for the farmers
of all states to realize that they have
little to gain by depending upon politi-
clans?

The arrest of two beggars on the city

that both men had more money in their
