The Oranges in the West, notwith.
standing the warm weather and the
busy season, are alive with enthusiasm.
They are holding frequent gatherings
measured by the thousands. We no.
tice two meetings in Michigan where
seven thousand people were present,
and at one gathering fourteen hundred
teams were counted in the procession.
What mean these large assemblies OF
farmers! They certainly do not
gather together for the sake of amusc-
ment; just for the pleasure Of days
rest from farm labors. From the foun.
dation of the world, labor all day and
every day has been the lot of the tiller
Of the soil. BE rises with the lark, ex-
pecting of course to work and sweat till
dark. When he brings out his best
harness and wagon, loads in his family
and goes to the country town for day S
absence in the busy season, his unusual
act means something. 1t shows that
his slow-acting faculties are aroused.
and that something new has taken pos.
session of him. Politicians and politi.
cal economists should study this new
movement Of the farmers. It is sure te
work revolution of some kind in some
way, and it is we'll to examine its bear
ings on the general interests of thu
country. The farmers have combined
for their own profit and imp ,ovem.nt
They are power to be feared if no
respected. II they have rights tina
have hitherto been denied them, i
is the part of wisdom to yield to thei
demands readily and gracefully; TO
they are strong enough to take thei
rights A little opposition, little per
secution will combine and cement tn
agricultural. interest so closely togethe
that they win be irresistible. If thei
just demands are disregarded, and tn
politicians of the present parties trea
them with the usual contempt, tn
presidential election of 1875 may be
repetition of 1910, and hard hande
farmer may sit IN the chair vacated b
Grant.-N. j. Granger.

A Great Truth Beautifully Exprcss-

The Grange Adrancs quotes some
comments of ours on Abernethv and

adds:

his paper notifying its readers that the edi-
tor is not responsible for anything expressed

the question, is old Mrs. Grundy responsible

COMMERCIAL MATTERS.


"A Falling Wheat MARKET
For the week past- -athoughreceipts
at both Milwaukee, and Chicago aggre.
gated less than q million: and hall
bushels and were but little if any in ex. i;
cess Of shipments, and while there was
not for this season an unusual accumu.
lation at New York-wheat has slowly
but steadily declined in selling value.
Yesterday the decline became more
rapid at the lake ports, beng steady
throughout the day, and at Chicago
from SO to 81 3-8c for August wheat
at Milwaukee from 95 to 0214c for the
same. Advices of this morning from
Liverpool noting decline Of
cd quarter since yesterday had the
effect of creating a panicky feeling under
the influence of which the Chicago
market opened at 80 1.8c for August
wheat and the Milwaukee market at 8S
l-2c for the same. At noon. however,
both markets had rallied though the
reaction has not come up to yesterday 3
values; and it is apparent the depres.
sion will be more or less permanent.
At present prices No. 2 wheat, for
shipment is really worth on the river
not more than 75c, and at interior
points, according to their remoteness
five or ten cents less. That doesn't
look encouraging, either for farmers or
grain dealers, but there is hope that a
month hence the outlook may
be much improved. Through and
just after harvest time each year the
wheat markets are always depressed
and usually to the lowest point of the
year. The actual results Of harvest
are only guessed at, and exaggeration is
the rule in such guessing. Two weeks
from now it may be known what the
actual condition is, and whether or not,
as is now guessed, the grain-producing
countries have too large surplus Of
wheat. Until then, prices will not be
established, and will depend from day
to day upon the fears or courage Of op'
orators in the principal markets. The
fact that prices are declining at this time
indicates only that tie general opinion
among operators is that the world will
not furnish a market this year for the
surplus wheat Of the Northwest.

The ULTIMATE OBJECT OF THIS ORG ANIzA-
T1oN Is FOR MUTUAL INSTRUCTION AND PRO-
lection.
Human happiness is the acme of earthly
ambition. Individual happiness depends
upon GENERAL PROSPERITY
From the address of the Master of the
National Grange, Master Adams of Iowa, de-
livered at the last National Grange meeting
at St Louis, January, 1874:
"Article xii. also demands most serious
consideration to definitely decide what in
depreciation shall be put upon the word
political" l am gratifed that our members
are substantially unit in the opinion that
the Order should not in any sense become a
political party. But at the same time, there
are questions most fundamentally affecting
our material interests (which can only be
reached through legisLatiou.-H seems I'M
PERArIvE that such questions should BE dis
cussed in tie Grange. Shall it be said that
of the Constitution? The questions Of
TRANSPORTATION, TAXATION, FINANCE, COR
RUPTIoN IN PUBLIC PLACES, acere such as come
home to the cOnScienceS and pockets of our
members, and they wish to know whether
they will be denied the privilege of can
vassing them on the ground Of politics"
To this suggestion the National
Grange replied as follows in their
NATIONAL PLATFORM.
"We emphatically and sincerely assert the
oft repeated truth taught in our organic law,
that the Grange, National, State or Subor-
dinate, is not political or party organiza-
ton. No Grange, is true to its obligations,
can discuss political or religious questions,
nor call political conventions, nor nominate
candidates, nor even discuss their merits in
its meetings. III
Yet the PRINCIPLES WE TEACH UNDERLIR ALL
TRUE POLITICS, ALL True STATIsMANsHIP, and
if properly carried out will tend to purify the
whole political atmosphere of our country
For we seek the greatest good to the greatest
number
We must always bear in mind that NO one,
by becoming Patron of Husbandry, gives
up that inalienable right and duty which be-
longs to every American citizen, to take q
proper interest in the politics Of his country"
"We propose meeting together, TALKING
TOGETHER, and generally ACTING TOGETH-
Err, for our mutual protection and advance
ment."
"We are opposed to any such spirit and
management Of any corporation or enter
prise as tend to oppress the people and rob
them Of their Just proits'
eve are opposed to excessive salaries and
high rates Of interest"

What the Grangers will Bring
About.

The sudden and brilliant fortunes
made by Western speculation will cease.
Wealth must be won by slow and pa
tient industry, and great caution and
judgment. We doubt, if this year, we
have the annual autumn stringency or
panic, because of the accumulation of
capital here on account Of the dread of
the Granger movements. In time, of
course. this ease Of the market and ac-
cumulation of money here will lead to
speculation again, but for many years,
in our opinion, the Changers will have
brought certain calm to the fevered
speculations of our Eastern capitalists.
The East will now show a more regular
and measured growth.-N Y. Times.
