TIE STATE GRANaE.-It is said that
the grangers. at their recent meeting,
discussed numerous matters of great in
terest to the agricultural people Of the
State. They are united in interests,
and what has been found good for the
welfare of one section Of the State has
been agreeable to the whole. One OF
the tenets to which the grange clings
with pertinacity ie, that farmers car
prosper only by ''paying as they CO."
It Is understood that central bureau
has been determined upon, to be located
in this city. which will go into operation
Immediately. at this depot arrange
ments will be made with wholesale mex
chants and manufacturers to purchase
at wholesale prices, and goods ordered
through it will rs shipped from first
hands direct to the purchasers. The
grange contributed 81, 900 for the estab
ilishment OF an immigration bureau at
iCharlcston, under the direction Of Mai.
+. Melchers, State Commissioner of
immigration. Thomas Taylor is Worthy
Master OF the Grange; DIV. Aiken,
Secretary; a. NJ. Aiken, Treasurer, and
Dr.. J. A. Barksdale, Grand Lecturer.
GRASdEn's RESULTS. 5000 oranges
of the Patrons OF Husbandry were or
ganized last year, according to the Sec3
retary of the National Grange. Tha
Treasurer reported $4,000 to be on
hand. In the report OF the executive
committee cooperation is warmly COM
mended. and the members OF the order
are declared to have saved 5000. 900
last year, by cooperative stores. agen-
cies and grain elevators. Anything
like wagiug war on the railroads of the
country is disoountenanced in these re-
ports, as there interests arc one with
those of the farmers.
The platform of the National Grangers
has genuine, earnest and honest ring,
which sounds pleasantly on the ear in
these days of political fraud and party
Iclaptrap. If the grangers will remain
true to the objects they ayow and the
principles they eaanciate, especially if
they will adhere firmly and sincerely to
their expressed determination not to al.
low politics to enter into their oreani-
cation. they will accomplish all they de-
sire for themselves and do much good
for the whole country.
