C. Jan.—The Con- gressional Ballinger-Pinchot inquiry | was resumed at 10 o’clock Friday | morning, with Louis R. Glavis again on the stand. Glavis has been offer- ed as the first witness by the accusers of the Secretary of the Interior to lay the foundation of their case. At thie initial session of the committee he made little more than a start on his testimony. In beginning, however, Mr. Glavis made the additional charge against | Secretary Ballinger that before enter- ing the Government service he had) acted as counsel in the Wilson Coal | Company cases in the State of Wash- ington, in drawing up an escrow agreement and deeds for alleged fraudulent claimants. Glavis laid emphasis on the fact that Mr. Ballinger’s name had been omitted from all the records in the Their only desire is te and other points in the West and that office records may have to be obtain- ed from Juneau, Alaska.

The producers and the consumers are the two par- ties concerned. As it appears the consumers have producer we invite investigation, n ‘only in regard to present prices, but let the investigation cover a period of years or even generations. Now, we want to be fair in this matter and are willing to take the present attitude of the consumer in a patient manner and give him time for full consideration. However, in the meantime, would like to suggest a few things for the consideration of the consumer: Ist. The producer is the American farmer. 2nd. .Who is the American farm- er? The American farmer is the men who have fought the hardest battle of the human race. He has fought from one generation to another, sacri- ficing his whole strength, health and even his life in the end to have the struggle continued by the bravest of his children. The succeeding genera- tions have succeeded by degrees till at last he has been recognized by those who have from time to time sneered at the occupation. The American farmer has worked by the sweat of his brow all these years, laboring 12 to 16 hours per day, taking his own judgment for the future supply and demand of his products, and has meekly abided by the markets which are governed by supply and demand. Now, the fainted hearted, cold | shouldered boys that grew up on the farm and, at or before the age of manhood, decided that tilling of the soil was for the weak minded, low spirited brother, proclaims his broth- er is receiving more consideration and more compensation for his efforts than the once wise and educated brother. Yes, the cold shouldered brother | joined the union, demanded 60 cents |to $1 per hour for his knowledge and | gotit through the combined efforts of his brotherhood. Later, he demand- led the 8 hour for a day’s work and | got it. What has the farmer brother been | doing? He has been working 12 to 16 hours, sun up to sun down, in the field and feeding and nursing the new-born ¢alf, pig or lamb by lan- | tern light, while the educated brother | took in the best plays at the opera, as | well as other luxurious amusements. | Now, I am one of the farmer broth- | ers and want to tell you from experi- | ences it took the most courageous, bravest hearted, self-sacrificing broth- er to stay with the soil, and to-day he is not to be dictated to by his once wiser brother in any terms of finance. | We have won the battle and won it by ahardrfight and your brotherhood |cannot put you right. It cannot gov- |ern supply and demand. It cannot | only “‘by attorney.”’ From the manner in which the committee proceeded, it is evident that each member, when he wants a particular point illuminated, will not wait for an opportunity to cross-ex- amine, but will interrupt, as is cus- tomary, the witness as often as nec- essary to bring out additional evi- one hundred feet to the bottom of Blanco Canyon and then burned with her baby amid the debris of a wagon that contained her household goods, was the fate of Mrs. S.

It cannot come back and command our sympathy after striking blow after blow at our existence. Now, we solicit the consideration of the brother consumer. We want him to investigate thoroughly and we think he will decide the tiller of the soil has at last come to his own. And after such decision we invite brother consumer to come back to the soil and make these acres of ours produce double present amount as they are ready to do if we only could get the labor toZcultivate intensely as do the more thickly populated countries. Now, a little more in regard to the boycott of meats. We producers consider it a very discourteous act. soon see their mistake and let the market have its natural course and we invite such decision and will for- give the act. _But, if the consumer wished to pur- sue the course -with its merciless ef- action accordingly.
