Representatives are charged with a
fraud, and on the bare assertion, we
treat il as an established fact. Not
only this, we increase the enormity
of the otfense by tacking on others
and charging whole Legislature
or Congress with being guilty Of
them. Verify, it would appearffom
the talk Of some men, that every
man in public life, from President
to a Councilman, is a thief and q
scoundel, when probably not one
in five hundred is one.half as mean
and dishonest as these same croak-

made in the Credit Mobilier, than
many hasteaed to believe them.
They didn't wait tor testimony, but
took the whole thing down at a
gulp, upon the naked assertion, or
Of suspicion. Why this
lightning credibility to stamp
upon the brow Of every
public man, charged with crime ?
The law presumes every man

The State Board of Auditors dropped
down on the Treasury yesterday in . sud

going through Treasurer Dike's books and

as thoroughly satisfied, and after mutual
congratulations over the satisfactory fnan-

The people Of the State may we'll feel
satisfied, in view of the change that has
taken place in Treasury management since
Mr.. Dixie took the Office. The amount of
interest that has accrued on State funds
from the LIST Of April, when Mr.. Dixie COM
menced, to the 1st of October, amounts to
$4, 966.37, and will reach $4,000 by the
end Of the twelve months, which will Day

learn to do what you have often regret
ed that you did not learn when you
were younger, for you find it next to
impossible to learn now. Yes, let your
children have an opportunity to read
the papers, (good papers ! mean,) and
let them send letters to the publisher,
and help them to give some interesting.
information from your experience in
farming, or from their own.
Let us look, for instance, at the mer-
chants, or mechanics. Where is there
merchant who does not take mercan-
tile paper, or where is the mechanic
who is not always interested in his me-
chanical OF scientific paper.
Brothers, one word more if you are
not already taking and reading the AD-
VANCE, and other agricultural papers,
subscribe at once. I will not presume
that any one Of you will say you " cannot
afford it, for I know it to be fact that
many of the farmers who think they
can not afford $1.50 for good agricul-
tural paper will subscribe for the New
York Ledger, or some other worse than
worthless, rattle headed story paper,
and spend their leisure time reading
what they know to be miserable and
imaginary love and murder yarn, and
what is worse still, giving your children
an opportunity to fill their heads with
the worthless trash, and moulding their
young minds for suicide and murder.

horror of such dreadful deeds. Sub
scribe at once for the ADVANCE, and
spend portion Of your leisure time in
gaining knowledge Of your business by
writing your views and reading the views
Of your brother farmers. and give your
children an opportunity to read and be-
come interested in the best methods of
forming, in doing so your boys will
learn to love farming instead of what is
too often the case, grow up to hate the
farm, and long to live the life of some
hero of a Ledger story.

who, by trickery, or by buying and selling,
have manipulated themselves into nomina-
tions, regardless Of their qualifications,
their public or private vices, their entire
lack of virtue, temperance, honor or prin-

helped to nominate these men, you have
slept while they have got the nominations
and the Offices.
You have seen you hard earnings taken
from you by an unjust tariff. and transfer
red to the pockets Of wealthy capitalists
of the East. You have moved that you
should be permittedao enter the markets
Of the world on IN equal footing with all

relieved from the unequal and unjust bur-
den of paying New England manufacturers
almost double as much for your goods, as
you would be compelled to pay for the
same qualities of goods in London or Liv-
erpool with the freights added in; that
you should be relieved from paying for

THE FARMERS MOVEMENT

hH ANME EISO MO LIN ENl.
Let the politicians say what they
please about it, the farmers movement
is going ahead like prairie on fire out
West, whether the organizations in the
East be shams or not. Several rep
resentative Missouri papers at hand
speak tho sentiment Of that region.
One says:-"T The necessity for that
reform in political administration which
the united effort of the farmers of the
country, especially Of the West, can ob-
tain is SO urgent that it cannot fail to
be recognized by even the most SUPER
ficial." Another-"T This movement of
the agricultural interest of the country
has not commenced bit too soon, and.
however modest and timid may be their
first action, they will soen fad them
selves caught up il the whirling tide Of
State and national politics, and will be
compelled, whether they wish it or not,
to consider all the grave problems now
before the country" Still another-
"The farmers war, as it is sometimes
called, is destined to have a great pol
itical influence" a Nebraska paper
asserts shat the grangers are making
rapid progress il that State. Common
cause is there taken with the farmers
Of Iowa, nlinois, Missouri, Minnesota
and other States on al questions affect-
ing he farmers interest. Another pa

AT the quarterly session of the
County Council of the Patrons Of Hus,
bandry Of LIE Sueur county, held on the
9TH inst, the following resolutions with
others, were adopted:
WHEREAS, To keep the Patrons ball
rolling, to speak when duty calls, and to
secure uniformity of action of the Oranges
composing this Council, be it
Resotved, That we believe it to be our
duty to make all party obligations sub
servient to our own interests to put our
votes where they will do the most good to
benefit ourselves the most. To this end we
are in favor Of being represented in our
next Legislature by good, competent, hon
est, worthy men, of thought and influence,
who are in hearty accord with the anti
monopoly movement. To such only do we
pledge our best and most earnest efforts
and our suffrages. That we look with sus-
picion upon men seeking Office. That our
Order is not for sale. And if there can be
found any one so devoid Of decency who
has joined us for the sake of Office, we will
plow him in so deep that any resurrection
will be utterly hopeless.
Rcsolved, That as extravaganza has near
ly bankrupted the nation, we are in favor
Of making political funeral of all Con-
gressmen, including the President, that do
not pay back their !" back pay" and at an
early day repeal that unjust law. That
the salaries Of all officers, including our
own county, be such as will reasonably
compensate the incumbent for the services
actually rendered; no more nor no less.
We strongly protest against being taxed to
support style in our public servants. That
the growing wants of or young State de-
mand annual sessions of the Legislature to
protect the people against moneyed monop-
| olies. That our next Representatives be
| requested to use their influence to abolish
the Offices of Insurance and Railroad Com
missioners, as useless and expensive.
Resolved, That we regard the act of the
directors of certain railroads in advancing
the tariff on our products at the present
| time and under all circumstances, as ex-
tortionate, oppressive, piratical, and down
right robbery; challenge to the patrons to
do their worst. As they have thrown down
the gauntlet, the Patrons take it up, and,
equipped with David's victorious armor,
are stepping to the front to meet these rail-
road Goliahs.
Resolved, That We regard the present
rich mems panic, the topping of fctitiou.
railroad stocks, as the dawn Of the glori-
Gus day for the Agricultural masses. And
| when our Legislatures will still further SET
to topPling all watered Stocks" when
hard pan is at last found, when these soul
less corporations are made to obey the law,
then will the producers throughout the
land have cause to rejoice.

necessary for the maintenance and ad-
vancement Of any Of these rights?
The position Of the people Of this country
has seemed to me similar to the position Of
the Congress of 1889, who permitted the
mere Clerk whom they had created, and
whose existence depended upon their will,
TO-, psurp their powers, to disregard their
motions, to set them at defiance and to pre-
vent their organization or the doing Of any
business.
Upon the meeting Of Congress the House
has no officers, and.the Clerk Of the pre-
eeding Congress acts as chairman until
the speaker is chosen. Upon this occasion
New Jersey had two sets Of delegates, and
the Clerk used this ss an excuse for refus-
ing to call the roll. He would call q far
as New Jersey aud then refuse to proceed.
Three days wore awey, the fourth day
opened The Clerk was ordered to call
thetroll. The old veteran statesman, John
Quincy Adams, who had then served his
country as sinister to the Courts Of Berlin,
Of st. James and Of the Gear, and for one
term had with high dignity and honor
served 8 the Chief Magistrate Of the Na-
ton, was seen, in his plase, sitting with
his eyes riveted on the Clerk, resdy 20 take
the floor Il the earliest moment possible.
