Farmers' View Presented. The organized farmers’ attitude was presented by A, H. Long of the United |Society of Agrigulture, who em- | phasized the necessity of obtaining {the actual facts in value of their pro- ductfon and demanding their share of production. The farmer-labor party, represented by J. G. Brown, national secretary, was friendly to the new movem asserted in pledging his sup, any liberal plan of coalition. “We must depend on ourselves and not on our political ‘friends,”” he de- clared. “We must develop leadership within our own ranks." The same idea was expressed by James H. Maurer of the national ex- ecutive council of the socialist party and president of the Pennsylvania State Federation of Labor. He said 90 per cent of the union men in his state had voted by ballot for inde- pendent political action, and the state convention of the federation had gone on record similarly. “I am willing to go the limit with you,” he concluded, “to bring the pro- ducing classes together for a common political action : Following the election of Mr. John- ston as permanent chairman, and Benjamin C.
