populists to get over their defeat. The
hardest ono to give It up and die Is the

pop papers In the county , came out late last

WINSIDE , Neb , Nov. 10. ( Special. ) The

'lojil Is now circulating freely , whereas none
had been used for many months prior to the
recent decision of the people , and local
Iwnks have begun to make loans again.
Thuso facts , together with the prospect of an
advance In the price of corn , make even
the popullstlc farmers pleased with their
defeat. They say now that they hope they
were wrong about the financial situation and
ire very willing to partake of the prosper
ity promised by their opponents.

There \vero about seventy persons present ,
but the later sltllngH are expected to show

of those Interested In the congress was that

nnd had this been tlio case the attendance
would have numbered several hundred.
The members present wore representative
men and leaders In the cause of agriculture.
The congress was called to order by the
president. II. ! ' . Clayton of Indlanola. la.

Responses wan made by the secretary , J.
M. Stahl of Chicago. lie said that upon
one occasion the proposition liad been made
to th-ow him out on the principle that there
were no farmers In Cook county. Illinois , as
that county Is Chicago. He said ho Itept
his place by showing that the farm products
of Chicago exceed those of each of more
than twenty counties In Illinois.Vc came
here , " said the necrctary. "to labor for the
farmer , and yet wo do not forget the men
In the mine. In the shop or In the bank.
\Vo realize the Interdependence of all In
dustries nnd that when the Industries of
the c-ltles languish our agricultural Indus
tries fall. "

President Clayton was then Introduced

Hit' pctiKlou of the soldier , the fees of the
profession * , the dry goods nnd the grocery
hills , as well as the co.it of conducting
all the Intricate machinery of government
must bo paid by the revenues of the soil.
The product of the gold nnd silver mines
Is only valuable because of the commerce
and wealth created front the farms. One
year of total failure of the products of the
earth and wreck and ruin , starvation and
death would be the Inevitable result. The
v.i m army of mechanics. t io arts , the sci
ences. the trades and the professions have ,
no doubt , contributed to n higher perfec
tion of our iirodtictlvo Industries ; but they
are not producers of wealth , they are con
sumers. The science of agriculture and our
wonderful mechanical Inventions have gone
bund In hand In the onward inarch of this
progressive ago ; lint our basal re
lation ! ) remain unchanged , and agriculture
must press her claims with uvrn gnvitur
force under the new condition of thlncs ,
as the true source of wealth nnd as the
solid foundation upon which rests the
honutlfiil and magnificent temple of our
success.
At the fourteenth annual meeting at Par-
kprshurjr In ISfll this organization , by a
nractlcally unanimous vote , passed the fol
lowing resolution :
"Resolved. That to whatever decree
cither great political party Phall adopt
the policy of protection , wo , ns representa
tives of the farming Interests , demand
that equal protection be given to farm
products. "
A committee of throe w.-s appointed to
confer with the eoiiHTPflslonnl committee
as to the adjustment of tariff schedules
on farm products. I regrer Hint there has
been no report from that committee , but
I have been placed "In possession of the
llcuroH on farm products under the opera
tion of the former and the present reve
nue laws , both of which are protective ;
hence I shall give the purported facts with
out fear of party criticism. During the
last fiscal year of the operations of the
former law the agricultural Imports on
twenty articles the like of 'which we i > ro-
dueo north and south , amounted to Ji'J-
Rfll.Hfi ; during the llrst calendar yearof
the operations of the present law the Im
portation of the same articles amounted to
S13I.OCS.SCO. or an Increase over the former
law of J > ; < ,2iV,3H. ) In the exportation of
farm products wo find the discrepancy still
creator In twenty-seven cljlef articles pro
duced on the farm. During the fl > cnl year
1S94 we exported farm products to the
amount of } r07 94r , OI. > , while during the
calendar year 1S91 there \vero exports In
thi > same products to the amount of only
STrd.SSMOT. a decrease of Jirn.ll3ms. Adding
the jralil In Imports to the loss In exports
nnd the American farmer loses In one year
{ 21,317. 22. It may be claimed with some
show of reason that other conditions aside
from the chance In schedules produced
this effect ; as. for Instance , on the article
of hide ? , on the free list under both sched
ules , the Increased Importation was $19.-
1C2.272 : on wool the Increase w.a' ? $27.C.G2 71R.
while our exports In cotton nnd brcadstuffK
receded $ S1.1S2.3V ! ) . If these figures bo true
a vlgorotiH remonstrance to those sched
ules should co up from this body , and a-o
should demand that the Agrleultural de
partment Investigate each Item. Should
protection be the pollcv of the-Kovernment ,
then It should be applied to farm products.
and the Agricultural department should
recommend to the general government
such changes In tariff schedules as will
furnish equal protection 10 the products
of the farm.
FAHMBHS ARK LOYAL.
There Is no Interest so sensitive to radical
change of government policy , or that so
iiulckly feels the effect of unfriendly legis
lation as the American farm : nor Is there
any Interest but what can better protect
Itself from corporate demands , trusts and
combinations. The American fanner Is
loyal to the American government nnd to
her Institutions , He Is ready to defend
the republic with his money or with his
life. Our government has no fear of revo
lution or anarchy iinioni ; the great agi ( cul

found on our national statutes , combina
tions of most glgniitlc proportions have been
formed that bid dellnnce to the courts of
law nnd that absolutely control the pur
chase and the Belling"-price of live mock
and Its products. In my judgment It Ls u
dark day when these > c'omblnntlons Invndo
any state. Gradually they arc extending
their power and fastening their fangs upon
the Important trade centers of the state
with a rapacious greed Unit threatens to
sweep everything before It. Will any well
rend mini deny the proposition that thee
combinations can sny to the farmer , you
slmll take your stocfc to market and sell
It to us at our price , or to others at a price
dictated by us ? They have Invaded our
country with the. foreign beef carcass.
They hiivo come- within the gates of our
cities ninl destroyed the slaughter house
and driven the local business man to the
wall throurh the siren's song of cheap beef ,
and the time Is not far distant when they
will ns absolutely control the price to the
consumer.
When you get behind the screen that
conceals the grain and the millers' asso
ciations , you will llml the same condition.
I'nlocs checked by state and national legis
lation , the millers' association will soon dic
tate to the farmer the price of his grain
and to the consumer the price of his bread
stuff ns absolutely ns the whisky trust
controls the price of their goods. The meet
ings of these organizations arc exclusive
and clandestine. The- facts are , the silent ,
submissive farmer and the piTbllo have sub
mitted to these growing evils without com-
plulnt. The fnrmcr. as a class , gives less
attention to his own Interest In legislation
affecting him nnd to the extortion prac-
tlctil than any other class of American
people.
The afternoon session began with the
rending of a. paper by Judge William Law
rence of Ohio , discussing measures whereby
the Farmers' National congress can become
a greater political power In aid of nonpartisan -
partisan legislation. Ho urged thorough
organization on behalf of the farmers In all
sections , nnd a co-operation on nil questions
of non-political Importance. He urged In
cidentally a restoration of the wool tariff.
One thing ho especially urged , was a light
to reduce the salaries of county olllclals
ns n means of lowering the taxes. At the
conclusion of the discussion of Judge Law-
rcnco's paper , John G. Offutt of Indiana of
fered the following resolution , Vlilch was
immediately referred to the resolutions com
mittee without nctlon :
Whereas , The products of the farmers are
measured by the amount of redemption
money that Is In circulation , and
Whereas , The prlco of the farm products
Is below the cost of production ,
nesolvcd. That this Farmers' National
congress Is In favor of the equal useof
both cold and silver coin na money of ulti
mate redemption , and that wo do request
the Incoming president of the United Stntos
to call a conference of nations that are
willing for the use of both gold and silver
as money , with the free and unlimited coin
age of both gold and silver In a ratio to bu
agreed upon.
The committee on locntlon met tonight
and has practically decided to recommend
St. Paul , Minn. , aa thoTiext meeting placo.

culture for tin- Month of .Vovcinlicr.
WASHINGTON , Nov. 10. The returns to
the Department of Agriculture for the month
of November as to the rate of yield make
| the .average of corn 27.3 bushels , which Is
nbovo the yield Indicated by the report of

In the large and principal corn states are
as follows : New York , 31.7 ; Pennsylvania ,
37.1 ; Ohio. 39.9 ; Michigan. 37 ; Indiana , 32.4 ;
Illinois , -10.4 ; Minnesota , 30.C ; Iowa , 37.7 ;
Missouri , 2C.3 ; Kansas , 27.1 ; Nebraska. 37.2.
The average yield of buckwheat Is 18.7
bushels per acre , against 20.1 Iniuhol.s last
year and 10.1 for the year 189 1. The average
yield per aero of potatoes Is SO.S bushels ,
which , though phenomenal. Is nevertheless
above the average for the past ten years.

pected to be fairly maintained , will result
In Increased acreage In Great Ilrltaln. Wet
weather In October throughout central Uu-
rope was unfavorable for the | K > tate crop.
A good corn yield has been realized on the

country by sea to foreign countries during
the past fiscal year was 6,286.1)14 ) pounds , of
which over 4,500.000 pounds were- trans

would bo devoted to the appropriation bills
and sparring among the political parties
for position. As to tariff legislation In
the next congress Senator Carter said he
did not believe the democrats would ob

llcann might do. In his opinion those who
were claiming and believed the hard times
could bo cured by silver must allow repub
lican tariff legislation to bo enacted or
they would meet the tariff fight In the next
