I do not agree with that contention. but that is the logic of the Senator from Indiana. Unless we can levy an equalization fee. there is nothing that can be done for them. he said. They are opposed to a subsidy. they do not want anything out of the Treasury. even though his associates have day after day stated that it is due to the action of the Government in the way of immigration and protective tariff laws that the farmer is in the position in which he finds himself today. If that be true. then the Government owes the farmer something. does it not? But the Senator from Indiana said. "No. that will not do. there can not be anything done for him. unless we impose an equalization fee upon him."
