Editor Nonpartisan Leader: Enclosed you will find -clippings from the Genoa Leader in which you will see how its editor tries to dis- courage farmers from organizing. We hope the farmers will stop taking his J. LARSON. The edltor of the Genoa paper recommends that “Nebraskans should run Nonpartisan leaguers out of the state and into Kansas or hang ’em.” He also accuses League leaders of pro- German sympathies and brands their work as the spreading of German propaganda.—THE EDITOR. KEEP THE PEOPLE SCRATCHING Plymouth, Wis. Editor . Nonpartisan Leader: I received a renewal of my mem- bership to the League, for which I extend thanks.- I have been on a trip through Michigan. for three weeks. The farmers around Reed City and Coldwater are taking their milk to condensaries but are not getting a fair deal. There is .a good chance to start cheese fac- tories in Michigan. Has there been any organization work in Michigan? I left a few copies of the Leader wher- ever I visited. Just a hit at Big Biz and the mid- dlemen. They are like the story about the dog and the fleas. They were no use to the dog, but kept him scratch- ing all the time. Same way with the middleman between the farmer and consumer. : DON W. CURTIS. A DROUTH-STRICKEN FARM- ER’S PLEA No sir, Mr. Banker, it ain’t our fault That our crops went bum. It gave us all an awful jolt, We can’t pay interest on our sum. We worked and toiled like a hoss From four till nine at night, And did everything we could, Boss, To meet the bill all right. But the hot wind from the South came And burned our crops away;: And now we’re up agin it, Cap, For we simply can not pay. Still, you know, Cap, our farms are worth Five times that little loan. But he said, “We'll settle this in court—" And the rest—he made me groan. Yes, he held his sheriff’s sale And straightway got his pay ’Cause the wheat crop made a fail; “ 'Twasn’t our fault, anyway. Now Uncle Sammy, please take heed: If you want the farms the world to feed, Supply them with money they need To helpdthem buy the next spring’s seed. DAVID BOGUT, Riverside, Mont.
