I3y order of Vasquotr.uk County Democratic Executive Committee. Bv C. B. WILLIAMS, Chm. I Editor Nebraska Farm Magazine, j The New York Sua quotes Jamet Wilson, of Iowa, former Secretary of Agriculture, as saying that the farmer were bit hardest by the Adamsou Eight-hour -Law. which stopped the threatened general railroad strike. According to The Sun, Mr. Wilson said: The fanner has no eight-hour day. Should that number of hours become general In all occupations. Including the farm, the prices of food wouia rise still higher than those current. The logic of the venerable ex-Sec retary is bad. The farmer Is not wor rying about the high price of food. He raises his own food. He grows food for sale. That's his business. If. as the ex-Secretary says. the eight-hour day will Increase the cost of food. the farmer haa everything to gain. And "Uncle Jim" has overlooked the fact that the farmers of the United States had not less than $6,000,000,000 worth of products practically ready to send to market when the strike crisis was . Imminent at the first of September. The threatened strike would have paralyzed the farmer's market and stopped the wage of the worker In every industry. Incalculable losses, aimning Into hundreds of mlrflons, were averted when the strike was prevented. Woodrow Wilson did It. "Tanfa Jim" was Secretary of Agri culture through four Republican Ad ministrations sixteen years. These were sixteen years of monopolistic control of the farmer's market Dur ing this period, these great combina tions, which have stood between the producer and the consumer, reached the zenith of their power. Greed and extortion ran riot. During this period, the farmers of the country complained continually of capitalistic extortion. Thy held con ventions throughout the great grain and live stock belt to voice their pro test. They sent deputations of able men to Washington. They sent their appeals for justice to the Secretary of Agriculture and waited at the door of the White House during the admin istrations of McKinley, Roosevelt and Taft. They asked for bread and re ceived stones of Indifference. They demanded Justice and received plati tudes about "prosperity," "content ment," and "making two blades of grass trow where one grew before." Then came another Wilson Wood row Wilson. Tilings began to change. David F. Houston was made Secretnry of Agriculture. For the first time In the history of the Government,' the business problems of the farmer re ceived the attentions of his Govern ment. The oilice of Markets and the Buremi of Rural Organization were created to help him break the strangle hold of eiitreii' lied monopoly. The epoch-making liural Credits Law was passed by Wnndrow Wilson' and a Democrat ie Congress. The power of the usurer ami extortioner was broken when Dial Ait was signed. The tanner has a good memory. He does not forget his life-long battle with entrenched privilege organized and grown purse -proud during forty years of Republican Indifference and misrule. He will not forget that it was WOODROW WILSON, the People's President, who saved bis market from ruin on Sept. 2, l'.Mii. The special pleadings of Republican defenders of special privilege. and monopoly will liiu! the farmers readv on Nov. 7.
