Farm ers

ours have every reason to complain
at the treatment which they nave
received from the government at
washington. Congress which mas
heen in almost continuous session
since the last presidential campaign
has failed in every way to give any
relief to the farming interests Oh the
country at large. -
president Hoover promised to ala
the farmers in every way posslDle'
and to try in a measure TO ease
some of the burdens which nave
been vested upon them. So far MOTH
ing has been done. -
We believe President Hoover Is
sincere and would like to do some
thing that would put the farmers on
their feet again and enable them to
Dush forward until prosperity woulu
come their way, but President Hoo
YER has an unruly Congress on MS
hands and it seems impossible to get
ANYTHING that would prove OF BEN
eff to the public at large from such
a mixed up mess of men composing
the present Congress.
The Republicans are divided IN
sroups and cannot agree among
themselves to anything which would
he of a permanent nature. The Dem-
ocrats while in the minority, seem
at times, really as bad as the re
nnblicans and cannot as a BODY
agree to any one thing that would
nrove of service to the citizens OF
this country. irrespective OF party
afiliation. 1..L
There are so many things which
are coming to the front which en-
cages the attention of Congress ana
retards any legislation whlch Woulu
be of any benefit to the farmers
The tariff question seems to De III
n nosition which those who taVor
Increased duties are in a minority
and cannot secure enough votes 10
carry such a. measure through. Tne
como wav with those who advocate
the lowering of the tariff, they are
o1so minus of votes sufficient to car
nv their views to a conclusion. 20
the thing stands, whether they Will
over get together and pass tarlH
measure which will beneht the pun
lie at large remains to be SEEN
The wet and dry question seems
IN he in a position where 1t Will not
Jo,vn Senator Borah and others are
asking for more stringent laws that
will mt the bootlegger out OF Dusl-
moss and crush for all time to come
ali those who in any way violate Cne
Drohihition laws now on the statute
4T,O pO9S ON.
The Congressional Record Is toau
cd with speeches for and against Cne
different measures now penulns-@
Fow of oratory is now going on
which will not change a single vote
and in fact disgusts the pubic @'
large. . o,1o,rod IN
,,,feor for the want of legislation
which has been promised time anu
time again by the party IN power:
We might at this point say that II
the minority party was at TINS !irn
the dominant party the cOnul'iOn0
would be about the same.
When will the farmers ever IeaIn
that thew have the power IN tnelr
o1vn hands and all the ills they are
now suffering from could be pre-
vented if they would exercise tnelr
rigbts at the ballot box and only
vote for those candidates Wnlch are
tried and true, irrespective OF par
ty? 1o,,o oo,r-
When will the people have couI
age enough to rise above party anu
vote for those men or women Wno
dare to do right, and will legislate
wisely and give to the people SUCH
laws as will prove both wholesome
ond beneficial? When voters DO inns
then will the citizens OF this State
and elsewhere come into tnOse
things which they have a rlght u
expect.
