oimil t"Ho kiim;s. FA KM Bits' NKKItS AM HKillTS. That the farmers have not received any. thing like their jubt share of the benefits which lie with the central government to dispense, hat been a source of increasing complaint with them, and to this cause may be attributed the extravagant de mands which of late they have been in duced to make. Leaving out of account the enormous appropriations for pensions, which is sectional rather than class legis lation, no one can deny that during the last thirty years of republican rule the moneys in the tteasury have been dia bursed very largely in the interests of the commercial and manufacturing classes, while but a pittance has been given to the agriculturists, who pay nearly half of the taxes and deserve a like proportion of the benefits of taxation. Of course the faimers derive some be: efit from the appropriations made for Hi direct benefit of cities, but they have right to demand appropriations for thei direct benetil. For example,ln the matte of postal facilities, the peope of the rur districts should enjoy;;privlleges some what like those enjoyed by the townspeo ple. No matter if a like service cost twice as much as In the cities. Even without the post office city people are kept con stantly Informed of the state of the market: and the news of the day through the dail press, but the latter Is practically unav.il able to the farming population because of their poor facilities for receiving ma matter. Thus they are debarred from great educational privilege, which a tithe of the tariff tax would pla-e within thei reach. In an article by Postmaster General Wanamaker in the American Agricul turist he says it is true that the "village or crossroads inhabitant, or dweller on the farm, chooses his home for his family am might live In the city,where gas ar.d water and mails are brought to his door." This is as fallacious reasoning as if he were to ay that the entire population might dwell In cities if they preferred to do so. It Is simply a necessity tl.at at least half th the population should till the soil and in comparative isolation. By the farmers' hard toil the people of cities are enabled o lire in Comparative ease, and they ought surely to be willing that such privileges as the free delivery of malls should be ex tended to them. The post master-general has taken the right side of this question and his recommendation ought to be fu vorably received by both parlies In con gress. Another move In the right direction has T)ien made by the secretary of ag'iculture who proposes, now that he has the signal service under his control, to exlend the benefits of it to the farming population 1 his can be done by means of the telegi aph and railway trains. Without great addi tional expense it can be arranged so that signals will be displayed at every railroad station and from every train, and every lo comotive's whistle can be brought into the service too. Such privileges as these are but the simple rights of the farmers . The farmers' alliance should advocate these rights and many other means of ameliorating the f trmer's condition. Outside of politics.and lirgely outside of congress, the alliance Cin do a great deal toward advancing the l8'.2. farmers' condition. Titnes-Unhn. THE ELECTIONS NEXT W'KEK. The elections to be held next week that are of any particular importance are those in New York .Massachusetts, Pa., Ohio and Iowa. New York is a demccratic state when the democrats are united. This year there are some party quarrels on hand but we think they will hardly defeat the dem ocrats. The other four states have hern reliably republican, but we regard them all as doubtful. Democra's are quite confi dent of winning in Iowa. They are quite hopeful of electing the governor in Mas sachusetts. Ohio has naturally Jo.coo to 25,000 majority. Campbell is handicapped by factional opposition In his own party In Cincinnati and Cleveland. Not a demo- ocratic paper In the state of general circu lation Is giving him genuine support and yet it Is claimed by his friends that he will more than overcome all this loss by re publican defections from McKlnley In the rural districts. Some even claim that Campbell will be elected. Neither Giv Campbell, nor Gov Hi'l has been able to riod, iu response to repeated calls to their audiences, any wcrkiugmco whose s;e have been advanced by the McKinley tariff. Tlie newspapers have re corded cases iurolving thousands of men whose wages bare bseo reduced since that trust fostering act wont into effect. Noticbto Ladihs.
