there is do doubt ere this time the tract! or

Miner" If DILLON had, or has any other
miner right to be sitting along the head

not say they have not because it IS not

Miner goes further TO say that IF DIT

if he intends keeping the senators postc'

many years of hard labor on the farm have
quite incapacitated me for tie floor Of
lyceum. am more used to swinging the
scythe that mows down the tall meadow
grass than that which deeapitates,< dead
heads. If, however, it becomes my duty TO
speak tonight on the subject Of deadhead-
ism, take great pleasure in announcing
that shall argue upon the affirmative. l
am aware that this is no less surprise to
the present audience than my distinguished
friend from Champlin. Be not harsh with
me, dear friends, if l cannot consent to
violate my conscience for the sake Of being
in opposition to Mr.. Spalding. No amount
Of applause could induce me to do so. nor
could any quantity Of reproach and ohloquy
prevent me from joining my friend in de-
nouncing vehemently the widespread and
ubiquitous domineer;ng deadheadism of the
present age. would further state before
entering upon the discussion of the subject

truth and veracity. You will remember
that the series of speeches delivered before
this audience (and reported in The GRANGE
ADvAScE) are headed by the somewhat pre-
tentious manifesto of 'Voices of Working
men," Now it seems that some evil dis.
posed person or persons have suggested
that since there is not another being in
Heaven above or in the earth beneath, or in
the waters under the earth, created or un-
created, that would endorse the principles
set forth in said speeches, it would have
been more modest and becoming, as we'll as
more truthful, if he had used the singular
instead Of the plural. Henceforth let all
such iaimical critics be dumb. Let it be
