ance with middle western politics ha* then-
been such a general condition of suspended
judgment. Sever ptobaWy dtit the vehe¬
ment, and I might *ay frantic, assertions
of editor* and congressmen on either side
have so little effect.
Real Fwbtl* Opiate*.
Those who assert that tire people are
eager for immediate repeal of the Sherman
law and them who declare tbe people are
clamoring for more silver are equally at
fau It. The former clam make tbe mistake
which men of their kind have made in
these United States ever stare tbe days of
Alexander Hamilton—they taka the utter¬
ances of the vocal c!**** for public opin¬
ion. Hoard* of trade and bankers' ooa ' <’(»
turns colt on congress to act at once, but
bow many do (hey really represent? In
these northwestern state* possibly one in a
hundred. Behind them are the silent mil¬
lion*, and three-fourths of these are not yet
able to satisfy themselves as to what is best
in financial matters. As to tbe tariff, of
course opinions are defined, as that has
long been debated, and the division is pret¬
ty mneh on party lines.
Tbe silver congressmen make a similar
mistake in taking the utterances of the un¬
fortunate and discontented aa public opin¬
ion, but evidently they are far nearer tbe
truth thau their opponent*. The discon¬
tented are indeed many, and their views are
set forth in one sentence: "Tbe country has
gone ahead for 80 year* at a rate that makes
us ditty, and the farmer hasn't got a mite
of tbe advantage. He isn't a bit better off
than he was in 1863 and not near so well off
as he waa in 18*1. Tell u* the reason. Give
u* a rented;. The man who can do that
can get all ihe votes in our parts. ” Such
is the voice that comes to my ears from all
the counties where I have acquaintances.
An Important Point.
Here is a point constantly discussed: Be¬
tween the continuous depreciation of silver
since 1873 and the almost continuous de¬
cline in farm produce prices there is a curi¬
ously close correspondence. I* the latter a
result of the former? Convince the farm¬
ers that It is, and the question of bimetal-
item is settled instanter. AH the resolu¬
tions of your banker* and boards of trade
will be but a* penny whistle* in a tropical
hurricane. But not only are their minds
unsettled on the question, but there is a
curious conflict In their testimonies. In
some sections of Iitinoi* there has been an
actual boom in farm land* within the last
year or two. in Induiha and Ohio there
has been att advance in tbe northern sec¬
tions, white the decline continued in the
south—apparently vicinity a real transfer of capi¬
tal. In the of cities the advance
has sometimes been very great.
I may, without being too personal, take
the figures on land in my native county in
Indiana, probably as good a farming county
as there te in the state. In 1830 a magnifi¬
cent stretch of laud lying adjacent to the
county towq was valued on an average at
*25 per acre- In I860, very little fit any of
it could have been bought nt *50. In 1865,
*100 was offered and declined for tbe best
farms, but everybody recognised it as a
"greenback priye.' 1 After the resumption
of specie payments in the boom of 1870-82,
such farm* sold at *80 and *85. The subse¬
quent decline has been rapid and continu¬
ous, and good farms have recently sold at
*50. The whole county is well supplied
with good road* and bridges, churches and
ncboolhouses. Ai! the swampsare drained,
the average health te greatly improved, the
delft is small, taxes are not very high, and
the general intelligence l» remarkable. Yet
in 12 year* land ha* lost all the valuelt had
gained in the preceding 20.
A Unique View.
In view of such ail extraordinary result
the opinion of »n old »nd experienced fann¬
er there may be of value. Such a one said
to me: “It is not the result of gold or stiver
or greenback* or tariff. Protection can’t
help it, and free trade won’t help it. You
may repeal the Sherman law, or you may
let it run, and you’ll never know Hie differ¬
ence. It all come* of thte hothouse system
of forcing up the land new west. Congress gave
sway the good out there to railroads,
and they fetched in people from the east
and Europe and doubled the production
right off in 10 years.
“In 1865 we were getting pretty near to a
home market, snd now we’re 27 years fur¬
ther away from it than we were ta 1860.
And what’s the remedy* Why, there ain't
any. We’ve just got to grin and bear it
till we outgrow it. What'* the good of
forcing more manufacture** The goods
are so cheap now that the workmen can’t
half live, and if you raise wages 10 cents a
day you'll have a million more people here
from Europe in a year to cut ’em down
again. We've juit overcropped ourselves.
It's a good thing, of course, to build up the
west, but we formers ta the old states have
got to pay for it.”
And straightway there was a chorus of
dissent from all who beard him. Out of a
dor.cn three or four were positive the trou¬
ble resulted from a lack of money, two or
three were equally positive the tariff was
to blame, as many thought it waa cheap sti¬
ver, and all admitted some doubts. And
so it goes all over the country so far as I
can hear. A few on each side of the silver
doubt, question are very positive, many are in
all agree that a depression ta agri¬
culture is serious, and nearly all are hope¬
ful of an early improvement.
A Iterreiw In Kamblebees.
There are, at least in the older sections
of the country, not nearly so many bumble¬
bees a* there were soon after it* settlement.
Explaining ibis assertion, American Culti¬
vator *ay»: "Wegrow os much clover aa
ever, but it i* cat earlier, ami the men and
boys engaged in buying have more time to
fight bumblebees than they did when ail
grass Was cut with the scythe. There are
not so many good places for the female
bumblebee* to lay their eggs In spring n*
there u*«l to be- The soil te firmer from
longer cultivation, and there are fewer rot¬
ten stump*. In our boyhood pretty much
all the futrwe found in haying and harvest¬
ing time waa in fighting bumblebees whose
nests were ta danger whenever we cut near
where they wet*."
