The Grange advance., 1873-10-22

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
Resolved, 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.
Resolved, 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 i" 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 our 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 fictitious
railroad stocks, as the dawn Of the glori-
Gus day for the Agricultural masses. And
when our Legislatures will still further set
to topping 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 msintainance 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 as 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 awsy, the fourth day
opened. The Clerk was ordered to call
thesfoll The old veteran statesman, John
Quincy Adams, who had then served his
country as sinister TO the Courts Of Berlin.

His eyes rivsted on the Clerk, ready 20 take

WHY WILL YE DIE, On YE OF LIT

article is from the Davenport Democrat of
December 10, 1872, and is powerful re-
minder to the afflicted:
The most insidious, deadly and distress
ing malady attacking the human frame, is
pale consumption, stealing into the maid
ems bosom, flushing her cheek, blanching
her skin, and feeding like living worm of
death upon her vitals. A lover may
fondly gaze into her eyes, the brilliant
sparkling is but a forerunner of dissolu-
ton A mother may listen to her mid
night breathing, it is but a muffied drum
beating her death knell A father may
fondly try to save her, but too frequently
his efforts are in vain, her bridal bed is the
burial case her bridegroom, death, the
silent consumer of her lungs is at work,
and physicians have no remedy, the phar-
macopeia no drug which cankeep her from
her destiny Sad as this view is, there is,
happily, bright side Providence has
garnered up in the storehouses of vegeta-
ton, a sovereign balm in the juices OF
plants to arrest the fell destroyer, to heal
the eating ulcer, to renovate the failing
lung, to bring health, strength and vigor
to the wasted frame. The keen eye oi
sclence .9l has searched for it, the chemist 5

PETERSBURG, May 2G.
In the case Of the Commonwealth Us. Sarah
Scott {courcd), charged with murder in the
Circuit Court this evening, scene OF some
sensation occurred. One lawyer from Rich
mond and three from Chesterfield appeared
in behalf Of the accused, and they re-
tired into an adjoining room to examine
the record which had been sent from the
Circuit Court of Chesterfield. The Judge
presiding, Hon. :. :. Weisiger, got tired Of
waiting for them, as they lad been in con-
sultation for over an hour. and ordered
them into court. Returning into court,
these counsel made the motion to withdraw
the plea of not guilty to give them an
opportunity to examine the records of
the case in detail. Mr.. Cosby, of Richmond,
argued in favor d that motion, and vas re-
Commonwealth for the county of Chester.
.iield, to. whom, in turn, Mr.. Cosby replied
Tor tho accused. The motion was also
pressed by MIR. Page, for the prisoner, when
Mr. George F. Doggett, attorney for the
Commonwealth In this city, arose to reply
to Mr.. Page, and had hardly uttered
the words, Inlay 1t please the Court"
when be was ordered by Judge Weisiger to
take his seat. Mir. Doggett sat down, but
again arose and asked if the court recognized
him as attorney for the Commonwealth for
the city of Petersburg. The Judge then
ordered him again to sit down and directed
the clerk to enter u fine against Mr.. Doggctt
of $40. Mr. DOggett then replied from the
seat, "Well, sir, am able to pay the fine"
The Judge then ordered the fine to be in
creased to $40, and that the sheriff take
Mr.. Doggett total. Mr.. Doygett was ac-
cordingly taken in charge by the sheriff,
when Mr.. Amber arose and requested the
court TO remit the fine: which the Judge
refused. At the solicitation, however, of
Me:'Srs. Jones, Amber, and Watkins, the
Judge consented to remit the Imprisonment.
MIR. Doggett having also disclaimed any in
tention to offend the court. The Judge took
the matter Of the fine under consideration
until tomorrow.
