1st. That old party organizations are essentially
corrupt and fraudulent Having no longer auy
principles to carry into effect, they have become
mere business enterprises, making show of op-
position to each other, but really sharing in the
proceeds Of profigate and dishonest legislation.
To suppose that any healthful reform can how from
the pretended efforts of these worn-out and demOr
allied partnerships is altogether vain and ilusory

Sd. That railroads cannot exact more than a fair
rate Of interest on the capital actually invested
in them, and that when in addition to this, they
claim dividends on watered stock and fraudulent
bonds, the State may rightfully interfere for the
protection of the people that unjust discrimina
tions between different localities are in violation
of law and should be prohibited.

2Id. That the tariff system now in vogue is a

4th. That subsidies or bounties of money, land
or public credit to railway, steamship, or other
corporations, are fragrant abuses of the powers of
government, fraught with the gravest dangers to
the people, and tending to promote corruption,
extravaganza, speculation, and financial disaster.

THE sovEReIGNs OF INDUSTRY

1t is only a matter of eight months since
the Republican suggested to Deputy Abbott
that the grange, in a modified form, might
very well move into town that il social in
tercourse and cooperation were good for the
men on farms, they must be good tor the
men in the workshops and factories, too. Ii
is not yet two months since this suggestion
bore visible fruit in the organization in this
city of the first council Of the Sovereigns Of
Industry. Yet, in this short time, the Wig
orous young order has sent its shoots to the
Pacific and the Gulf Councils have been
established in eleven states Of the Union,
commissioned deputies are at work in ten
other states aud, to-day, the national coun-
Gil is in special session in this city, simply
because the unexpected aud astonishing
growth of the order has made further consul.

A DEAF EDITOR.

We thought rSbody in the state knew
that we are deaf but once in while we find
one who is no. aware Of the fact. A female
book -pedder came to the Office, the other
day. She wished to dispose of book. She
was alone in this world, and had no one TO
whom she could turn for sympathy or assis-
lance, hence we should buy her book. She
was unmarried and had no manly heart into
which she could pour her sufferings, there
fore we ought to invest in her book. She
had received liberal education, and could
talk French like native; we could not, in
consequence, pay her less than So for book
We bad listened attcntively aud here broke
in with " What did you say? We're
deaf She started in a loud voice and
went through her rigmarolc. When she had
finished we went and got roll of paper, and
made it into a speakiug-trumpet, placed one
end to our ear, and told her to proceed. She
nearly broke blood vessel in her effort to
make herself heard She commenced "

she said in low tone; then at the top Of
her voice, " don't want to marry you,

was howlcd. I'VE don't want cook, - we
remarked blandly. :" our wife docs the cook

a woman as you to stay in the house five
