He knew that some of the men had been guilty of the greatest erimes and lawlessness and had been shielded and protected by commissions as deputy mar- huls.

He hoped that soon after the holidays the Cherokee outlet bill would be taken up forconsideration and thut through it some legislation looking to the purpose which he had in view might be se cured.

He was happy to know that there was 1o wrgent demand for_such a bill in the state of Illinois. Tho effect of the bill, should it become a law, would be to drive speculators out of the business, and to give lurge capitalists a monopoly in dealing in farn produ The effect ~ would be to diminish pu to drive out competition and to leave the field of business to the men demunding the passage n act of July it wa partisun action rators was to heiv Kan.. up, ideas of gove of the pending bill, Mr. Peffer's Remarks, Mr. Peffer, populist, from Kansas, siid that he would not be quite satistied with his own conduct if he did not, at least openly, betore the sendte, expr his approval of the pending measure, It was ot Lis intention to enter into a discus sion of the details of the bill, nor did he expect 1o consider at length the legal question involyed in it But e wished to mphasize the in 10 I early and favor. able action on the bill. Ninety per cent American farmers favored the pass. the bill, or of another having the sume ob jeet in view. Farmers did not object to buy- ing and sclling for future delive That was often convenient and sometimes neces But the farmers insisted that a ficti- ded and false commerce in rticles, which continually ed with their business to their in jury, ought to be suppressed. They did not expect that the pending measure, if it be came i law,would rid them wholly of the evil complained of, but it would open the way to more successfil legislation after the methods of evading it had been discovered. Hedoubted whether 100 votes could be obtained among the farmers of Kansas in_opposition to the bill; s0 that, in_urging its passage he was doing their' bidding, and it aford pleasure to aid them in all matter which they had_given him_ instructions, as they had done in this matter.
