54 THE THIRD POWER 



lers, and all who look on government as an instru- 

 mentality for their own enrichment, may well be 

 disturbed. But there is no warfare to be waged 

 against the rights even of these. We want to take 

 the broad and manly view of this movement. It is 

 not a grab for privileges, or a war of reprisal, but 

 simply a firm and resolute stand for justice and 

 equity. The farmers are not going to ask any one 

 to give them something. They are merely going 

 to take what is theirs. The Third Power, represent- 

 ing the divinely established business of agriculture, 

 when it is organized, will not need to ask favors; 

 it will only have to insist on rights. Favors it does 

 not want or expect. Rights it will have.
