tempted to use the disciplined army
behind them to obtain them. The
questions, too, with which the order
proposes to deal are becoming direct
political issues, and it must enter
the political arena to meet them. 1t
cannot achieve any great reform in
any other way.
Conceding that the St. Louis plat
form was laid down in good faith
and that the declarations were sin
cere, it may as well be accepted as a
fact that the Grange will be an ele-
ment in the politics Of the future.
What it may accomplish time will
show. In its spontaneous origin
and marvellous growth it has its
counterpart in the Know-nothing
party which played such o brief and
brilliant career, and died as sudden
ly IS it originated. The decay of
that party dated from the time it be-
gun to figure in the active politics
of the day as q pro slavery sympa-
thizer. Whether like experience
awaits the Grangers on some other
issue remains to be seen. One thing
is pretty certain. If the primary OBJ
jects of the order are not of sufflci-
ent Importance to keep it in exist
ence outside of politics, its career
inside will be of brief Duration

THE CRUSADE.
It Continues Spreading

Al hlpley, OnlO, on Gne 1lGn, Dul
two saloons, continued open with a
limited business. On the 18th sew
eral saloon keepers resumed their
business quietly, but were discov-
cred and sung to and prayed at till
they quit, and on the 10Th one of
the two first named capitrlated leav-
ing but one saloon or liquor shop
in the place. It was a wholesale
store which had taken to retailing.
The proprietor promised to stop re-
failing, but that would not answer,
and the peaceful war continues.
Jeffersonville, Ind, was awakened
last week, and two hundred ladies
set about the work. They met, re-
solved, dissolved, and met again,
then marched upon VIM. Strausse's
saloon, one Of the most formidable.
1t was closed and admittance denied
them. They sang and prayed, then
marched to Fout's saloon, where
the services were repeated and Fout
agreed to sell out 20 them and quit.
His bartender did a big trade while
the meeting was going on. Next
A. Kleepser's saloon vas assaulted
in the same peaceful manner, and an
arrangement was made to buy him
out. Monday last proceedings were
resumed and meeting were held in
front of eight different saloons at
once, but without any pereeptible
effect npon the proprietors.
One hundred of the most highly
esteemed Christian ladies have fully
inaugurated the women's temperance
movement in Shelby. The ladies
have been admitted and kindly re-
ceived by all except Perry Nichols,
g saloon keeper in the Cleveland,
Columbus, Cincinnati and Indiansp-
oils Railroad depot, who grossly in
suited them.
At Lebanon, Ohio, Lewis was at
work, last week, but little remaining
to be done there he sought 9th er
fields.
At Covington, Kentucky, postal
cards we're sent by the ladies to sa-
loon keepers asking them to dis
continue their traffic. They prom
ised to commence their movement
on Wednesday of this week, if their
requests were not complied with.
A complete victory is recorded at
Washington Court House. At
Athens the liquor sellers are dis
hsartened. At Xenia the saloons
close but do not cspitulate, but the
work goes on hopefully. Ditto in
Lancaster. At Dayton and other
points the movement lacks vigor.
At South Charleston, Greenville
and London the work goes on, the
Council of London has passed an
ordinance forbidding the sale of ale,
beer or wine, &C., within the corpo-
ration.
Three thousand persons held a
meeting at City Hall Columbus, on
Monday evening last, and organized
for the work Of putting down the
liquor traffic. Dio Lewis presided
and made & speech melting the Wo-
men to organization and labor.
Tuesday was appointed to organize
for the work.
The result of the movement so
far has been to close up about one
hundred places where liquor was
sold previously.
At Hillsboro, the iDjunction.case
restraining the ladies from singing
and praying in front of suudry pla-
ces named, was the all-absOrbing
topic. The ladies think they will
come of conquerers and viii be al
lowed to proceed with their work.

RECENTLY the fOlWing resolution
was before the House Of Represen-
tstives. It was presented by Hon.
John Q. Smith Of this State, and ex-
presses the sense ofthe people upon
the subject involved. There can be
no doubt of the power of Congress
to enact such law as shall protect
the people from oppressive exactions
when requiring the aid Of trsnspOr-
tAtion companies to move the vast
commerce Of the country. Yet
against this resolution the Democ-
rscy planted themselves in a solid
body, and it passed by q strictly par
ty vote. They have thus, as party,
arrayed themselves against the inter
est of the farmers especially, and it
will be strange if the fact escapes
the observation of the Grangers.
The resolution is as follows:
"Be it resolUed by the House Of
Representatives, That in the judg-
ment of this House it is within the
constitutional power of Congress by
law so to regulate commerce among
these states as to protect that por-
ton of our internal commerce which
is among the several states, from all
unjust or oppressive tolls, taxations,
distractions orother burdens Wheth-
Or imposed by railroad companies or
by combinations thereof, or by other
common carriers when engaged as
the instruments of. such portion of
the commerce Of the people; that the
present condition and magnitude Of
the commerce among the states are
such as7to demand the prompt and
wise exercise Of the power and duty
declared in this resolution"

THr Democratic majority in the
Legislature has concluded to re-dis-
trict the State for the purpose of
making it Democratic Of course, and
the necessary'legislation will follow.
Quite q number Of years ago, they
tried the experiment Of gerryman-
dering the State In a similar manner
and shortly after their power passed
away from them. It was thought
they would learn wisdom from the
past, but they do not seem to be any
wiser than their predecessors. The
people will sit in Judgment on the
deed, and Congress may have some
thing to say on the matter, as one
re-districting has taken place under
the last census, and that is all that
is contemplated under the law.
