THE FARM KB HAS TIME TO Tffl.YE.
Probably no occupation allows more
freedom of mind, freedom to think con
secutively without interruption, than
does farming. Plowing and many other
features of farm work leave the mind at
liberty to occupy itself with any subject
or problem that is of later it. Given,
first, a knowledge of the facte, and the
farmer can draw out of them every
lesson that they teach, can build from
them inventions, mechanical and com
mercial, which will economize work
facilitate equal exchanges and bless
society. He can study the inalienable
rights of man and the evils which afflict
him; he can state the financial problem
to himself and discuss it; he can measure
iho difficulties which stand in the way
of the settlement of the railroad ques
tion; he can study the whole great evil
of monopolies and reason out the best
method of dealing with them. He can
emancipate himself from profitless
labor by acquainting himself with the
facts of the industrial and commercial
world and reasoning from them.
There are no limits to the possible
development of the reasoning faculty.
A ilfformirifllion know all the facts
- n
which concern one and to reason from ,
them with precision and untiring per
severance, will enable the average mind
to solve all the problems which seem
difficult. Too much reading is not
likely to lumber up the mind of the
farmer. Too little reading will, how
ever, unfit him to reason justly. He
should select his reading with care,
reading such books and papers as will
give him reliable facts and figures,
principles and self evident truths, honest
arguments on the most important sub
jects; and he will then be able to cccupy
his mind constantly and enrich his life,
widening his mental horizon with every
conclusion he reaches.
Progression toward the infinite is
possible, and we grow with increasing
ease and swiftness as our knowledge
from reason increases.

GERE'S C0,FESSI0X.
I am,
And have beer, for years,
The chief liar
Of the corporation machine
Called
The republican party of Nebraska.
It is my business to
Misrepresent,
Malign character,
Whitewash candidates
And manufacture statements,
As they are needed,
To prejudice
And deceive the public.
I am
The people's enemy
From Wayback,
As you doubtless know,
And I am not here
Working "for my health."
I hold
That the people
Are fools.
They deserve to be plucked,
And I am
The man to bamboozle them,
In the interest of
Professional politicians,
Corrupt officials,
Corporation plunderers and
Gere.
Iam
The ring-servant
Notorious,
And always in it
On the side of boodle.
I have been selected
As chief servant of the gang,
And railroad tool,
Because of my manifest complete lack
Of conscience.
This one qualification
For the work I am engaged in
Is the secret of my fortune.
. And my advice
To those who come after, is,
Sell yourself to Mephistopheles
Once for all, without reservation,
And your services will commaad
Almost any price.
ARE THE FARMERS FOOLS?
The old party press of the country,
and such other papers as look to them
fer political opinions, with the unani
mity born of a common longing, prophe
sy that good crops and high prices will
disintegrate the Farmers' Alliance and
separate the"hayseeds" politically. And
perhaps their long patience under the
yoke, their blind party devotion while
the but deus were being heaped upon
them, gives some ground for the belief
that they will, with a little financial re
lief, drop back into the old parties and
be content to do as they have always
dono. .
But the rain, observe, did not come in
answer to these prophets' prayers. They
neither bombarded the heavens nor stir
red the earth for the farmers. They had
nothing to do with the with-holding of
rain in Russia, and the prices in conse
quence, in spite of exorbitant freight
charges, the reduced volume of currency
and speculation, for the first time in
years are somewhere near what they
should be every year. The farmers have
received no favors from man, no help
from the republican or democratic party,
and they do not propose to allow their
future prosperity to depend on tho star
vation of their fellow-farmers in other
lands. During the last ten years the
farmers of this country have been think
ing, read ing and discussing the situation.
And it is an undeniable fact that the
average Alliance ' farmer has como to
know more about social and national
problems, more about the monopoly,
railroad and financial questions, than
does the average uiau in any other class
or profession, lawyers not excepted.
The truths which the farmers have
learned they can never forget. Notice
a few of them.
They see that it was the stupidest fol
ly for them, having interests identical,
to spend their lives and throw away their
opportunities voting against each other
in the two old parties. For twenty
year3 they have been sending men to
Congress and legislatures who have
drawn salaries for service and have at the
same time allowed the banks, corpora
tions and speculators to bind and plun
der the people without mercy. They
have been, by voting in opposite parties,
practically depriving themselves of the
rights and privileges of citizenship, and
riveting upon themselves the chains of
slavery. They see all this now, and
have sensibly concluded that farmers
mu-t be represented by farmers in the
law-making assemblies of the nation,
that one class can not be trusted to care
for tho interests of another class.
They see that the republican and dem
ocratic machines platforms, press,
speakers and hangers-on are owned
and directed by the railroads, the usur
ers, the gold-bugs,, the capitalist class,
The old party press meets the demands
for reform with ridicule, and offers no
remedy for existing evils.
Will the farmers then separate? Of
course not. Will they go back and vote
frr railroad attornies and professional
politicians? Hard'y. Their votes in
future will not neutralize each other as
in the past. They will elect men to leg
islate in the interest of the working
class. They will not allow one man, or
gang of men, power to dictate what
shall be the prices for services or goods
for all the rest. If monopolies must
continue they will not allow private
parties to run them and plunder the
people at pleasure. Tbey believe those
who work should have the full product
of their labor, that he who produces most
should enjoy most, and that he who pro
duces nothing should enjoy nothing.
They see what hinders justice at present,
and they will work together politically
till they have made this nation a govern
ment "of the people, by the people, for
the people." ,
Parnell Reported Dead.
Parnel, the great Irish leader, is re
ported dead by latest telegraph. No
particulars given up to our going to
press.
