THE TEMPERANCE MOVEMENT
IN ORLEANS COUNTY.

The influence of the temperance wave
that is sweeping over the country, is be-
ing felt in our own county and a new
and unusual interest is being awakened.
By the effort of the efficient state agent,
P. y. Granger, the County society has
given signs of new life, and has underta-
ken to aid in forming active societies in
all locations where none were in existence.
In several towns lodges of Good Tenn
plars and ordinary societies exist, and
through the efforts of committee chos-
Gu by the County society, other town So
cieties are being founded. This commit
tee is expected to assist in the formation
of new societies, wherever their services
are needed, and will hold themselves
ready to answer all calls Of this kind.
1t is desired that all town and local tenn
perance societies become auxiliary to the
County society, and that they report,
throug Oh their secretary. to the SECRETARY
of the County society. b. NJ. Camp Of
Newport, quarterly,in regard to the con-
dition of each of their respective socie-
ties. A constitution suitable for the
subordinate societies has been formed.
nd may be had by sending 70 either of
the committee E. W. Culver of Barton
Landing. John Z. Chamberlin of Alba
ny, or G. H. Blake of Barton. The COM
mittee calls upon every good citizen, and
upon elergymen especially, to assist in
the formation Of societies. and in the
temperance work, generally. 1t is hoped
that such an interest may be awakened
as shall cause nearly all our people to
enroll their names upon the pledges. II
temperance men come up to the work,
and look after their interests at the polls,
and each III his own town, there will
he less complaint of officers and juror:
who belle the trust imposed On them
and less intemperance, lawlessness and
trouble everywhere.
If there is town, village or neighbor
hood in this county, where the peopl.
desire to form temperance society, eli
Their of the committee named above vii
oonsidersit privilege to furnish con
stitution, pledges, or assistance in form
ing such society, and will promptly an
sEer all calls in this direction.

GIVE PRAISE WHERE 1T Is MER-
TIED.

The old saying that We ought to give
the devil his due, ought TO be kept in
speaking of the honorable body we call
Congress and since SO much has been
said and written within the last few
wears that has been calculated to lessen
our esteem for the members Of congress,
we ought in justice TO give them praise
when praise is due. Either we have
been greatly mistaken in the character
of the men we have sent to congress from
Vermont. or we have sent men noted for
intellectual and moral worth, and the
record of none is such that we are dis
posed to say that we were cheated in our
selection 50 that, 50 far as We are rep
resented, We may safely say that Yer
mont is behind no sister state in the
character and ability of her congressman.
The legislation undertaken during this
session of congress has been in some de-
gree corrective, and has done away with
one measure particularly obnoxious to
the people the increase of salaries. The
bankrupt laws were found defective, and
have been thoroughly repaired under the
direction of Senator Edmunds. Measures
looking toward the educational interests
of the country, have been undertaken
by having the receipts from the use and
sale of public lands devoted to the beI.
eft of schools. The influence of the
Grange movement. and the rising antag
onism against railroad monOpolies anG
subsidies, is such that it is felt in Con
gress, and already measures looking t
the transportation interests are being ac
ted upon. 1t is good omen that man!
of the schemes Of corporations, lobbyist
and pluuderers have found no favo
among congressman. The interest fel
and the time spent on the financial ques
ton has been considerable and it will re
ceive more attention before disposed Of
The result will doubtless be comprc
mise measure, and this may be merel
to let the matter drift. as it is no,
drifting The diversity Of interest an
opinion is SO great that no measure ca
he adopted that will be satisfactory t
all. The West wants more money an
would have an additional amount ere;
ted by the government bank note prin
ing presses. The East chiefly. favOrs col
traction. and speedy return to spec
payments. The South also wants mo-
shin plasters," so it will be seen til
it will be very difficult to find a major
ty who will vote for anything lookir
toward contraction and gold. Many
the undertakings of this congress a
wise and necessary, and it is not mo
than is just to say that thus far a spil
of reform, economy and wisdom has be-
manifested.

INDICTMENT.
The People vs.. Railroad Corpora
finna. -

1.-Neariy all the railroads of the State
v-z1 were built principally by State and
county aid; the balance Of the cost
being furnished mainly by private
stock subscriptions among the farm
ers and others along the various
lines, and not by the capital of those
a.r who now control the roads.
2.-This private stock which constitut-
ed only comparatively small pro
portion of the cost of the roads, has
passed out of the hands and control
rs of those who furnished even this
portion of the means to build the
i. roads, into the hands of the present
railroad owners, in and ont of the
State at about rs cents on the dol
lar So that the present owners of
.f- -.- the roads have paid for them rery
small per cent Of original cost; the
rgt balance of the cost having been (and
is still being paid by the taxes Of the
people, and by the original stock
subscribers.
.3.-Present owners of sfre railroads of
the State by getting control OF the
roads in the manner they have,
have amassed immense wealth. and
in addition to the immense amounts
annually added to the value of the
railroads, are drawing princely saIar-
les, and in many instances dividends
of from 90 to 40 per cent on their
actual outlay.
4.-These railroad owners are now DIS
ELIMINATING AGAINST THE
PEOPLE whose taxes and subsclip
II tions built the roads, and in favor Of
foreigners, in their freight rates, to
such an extent as to badly cripple
the agricultural and other interests
of the State.
O.-They are charging, and always have
charged, rates of freight out of all
proportion to the actual cost of the
labor performed by them.
6.-They are charging, and always have
charged, rates Of freight greater than
their charters allow them, and hare
thus rioLated their charters and rendered
them subject to forfeiture.
1.-THE railroad property Of the State
has been hitherto exempted from
taxation, in violation of that clause
of the constitution when requires
Lldt fttS pfOpcIty Sfttttt Oo tt@Ctt5 3GCOIC-
ing to its value"
S.-The officers in charge of these roads, /
are, and have been, exercising a very
corrupting influence upon the pub
lie press, and various governmental
departments of the State BY A
DESPICABLE SYSTEM OF DEAD
HEADISM. This system is danger
GUS IN its tendencies, AND OUGHT
TO BE LEGISLATED OUT OF
EXISTENCE.
0.-These railroad corporations have |
heretofore, to some extent, dictated
legislation In Tennessee. Their |
power, at present rates, WIFI soon be /
such, that they will do for us, Of
Tennessee, what they have already |
done for the people of some other |
States, dictate Through their wealthy |
