The New York Tribune, which is
chary of praise, and seldom tells the
truth about Republican nowadays,
when the truth, so told, rebounds only
to the honor of its subject, pays high
compliment to Governor Hartranft in
the following terse and forcible lam
guage: "In his three years service
in the Executive office Governor Hart
ranft has played a role of extraordin-
airy difficulty, and played it so success
fully as to demonstrate his possession
of great original force aud a remarka-
BILE genius of political management.
He has fully redeemed tainted repu-
tation and convinced even his worst
enemies that the assaults made upon
his personal character in 1872 were
unjust, and at the same time he has
kept the friendship of the reckless
and corrupt politicians whose schemes
he has repeatedly baked. No Gov
ernor of Pennsylvania ever vetoed so
many bad bills as he has done No
one ever succeeded to such a remarka-
BILE degree in attracting the virtuous
element of his party by his good con-
duct, and compelling that Of the vi
cious by his skill in combinations and

Gen. Spinner's approaching retire
ment from the Treasu rer's office is
calling out the tributes his long and
faithful service deserved. The ST..
Louis Republican says: "Francis E.
Spinner has been Treasurer of the
United States for IA years. In that
capacity he has been the guardian
and distributor of more money than
probably ever passed through the
hands of single man since money
was invented. And not a single cent
has ever stuck to his fingers. So faith
ful has he beer to his great trust, that
not even in the hottest periods of po-
litical antagonism, or the darkest per-
iods of popular suspicion, has breath
of SANDER sullied the fair mirror Of
his fame"

Here is that cut-worm preventa-
tive. The Uniontown Genius says
Ellis B. Woodward, of Menallen town
ship, informs us that alder leaves, or
leaves from the wild cherry tree, strewn
through a corn-feld in punches, say
twenty-five feet apart, is a sure pre-
ventative against the cut-worm cutting
off the corn. He says he has tried it
for thirty-three years, and never knew
the remedy to fail in single instance.
Mr.. Woodward alleges that he has fre-
quently tried the experiment in his
corn-feld about the time the cut worm
was making the attack on his corn,
when they would shortly gather on
and under the bunch of leaves, where
they can be killed by the hundred,
Mr.. w. vouches for the truth of the
above, having frequently tried the
remedy, and it never failed in pro-
ducing the desired result.

matters of daily occurrence. As arbi-
tration is the rule of the Order, expen-
sive litigation Is avoided, and an invalua-
BILE advantage is the substitution of a
cash system for the abominable and ex-
pensive credit system. Another of the
advantages OF the Order is the increase
of intelligence and education among its
members. Regular meetings of all the
Oranges in the Order are held at inter-
walls, and at these meetings interesting
discussions and valuable conferences take
place, which, besides giving the members
an insight into parliamentary rules, IN
struct them in the better management
of their private affairs. Woman's rights
is a progressive feature of the Order.
There are 700, 900 women in the Grange.
who vote, hold office, &c, equally with
the men, aud a recent decision makes
them eligible to the Office of Master.
Miss Julia Garrettson is Lecturer of the
Iowa State Grange, and woman is Over
seer of the New Hampshire State Grange.
PERMANENT HOMES OF THE PATRONS.
Since the Order came into existence
an immense number of Grange Halls
have been built and furnished, giving
evidence of the stability of the Order. In
Indiara, Pennsylvania, New York and
some other States, more than common
attention has been paid to this detail,
and many of the Oranges own fine build
ings, handsomely furnished with pictures,
| decorations, musical instruments, books,
&c. where they hold regular meetings and
pleasant social gatherings. The Grange Of
ten combines all the features of the lyce-
um, debating society, concert and dinner
party. During the summer months the
Grange is simply business association,
but from December to April the social
and ceremonial forms of the Order receive
particular attention. Grange libraries
and reading-roOms exist in many locali-
ties, and a system of exchange and circu.
lation is sometimes adopted.
A fact worthy of attention is the inf1u-
ence of the Grange upon newspaper
circulation. 1t is estimated that the
farming community, since the Order was
established, subscribe to one-third more
newspapers than were in circulation pre-
yiously. Where a member of the Grange
is unable to subscribe for a newspaper
Oftentimes the Grange will lend him
money for the purpose, or pay portion
of the subscribton price ! others charge
to the General Grange fund one paper
for each member making such selection
as best suits himself. The great majority
of the members of the Order are opposed
to the miserable sheets calling themselves
Grange organs" which were started
soon after the organization of the Grange,
for the purpose OF pilfering the rural
press of their subscribers and advertisers.
Indeed, the body of the Order is opposed
to the publication of newspapers by State
Oranges, as in Michigan, Kansas and Wis
consin, papers edited by officers of the
Grange for private profit and kept in exist
ence with Grange money. That the State
Oranges have been able to do this is not
strange. when the fact is known that
subordinate lodges have had in their
treasures from the start nearly S6, 000,-
900 from initiation fees, and that the
annual income from dues is about ST.
750, 900.
