The Grange advance. [volume] (Red Wing, Minn.) 1873-1877, 1875-10-13
Volume 3, Number {.

With this number the GRANGE
ADVANCE enters upon its third year,
and, we are happy to say, under cir
cumstances which give us good rea-
son to hope that its future will be
more prosperous and useful than its
past. 1t has now the largest list of
subscribers of any paper in this
State, outside of St. Paul, and, with
a gentlemanly and energetic agent,
Mr.. W. ]. Crandall, constantly in
the field, we hope to double this in
a few months time. AS the patron
age increases, we intend to improve
the paper, until it shall equal any
similar publication in the country,
and we ask our readers to be patient,
until we are able to do better, with
the best that we can do under ex-
lstlng circumstances.
The ADVANCE was started for the
purpose of advancing the interests
of the working-classes and contrib
uting to the growth of the Order Of
Patrons of Husbandry. 1t has nev.
er been, is not now, and never will
be run in the interest of any politi-
cal party or clique, but will endeav-
or to discuss fully and fairly all po-
litical questions, invariably advocat-
ing that policy which common-sense
and sound reason leads US to believe
will best conduce to further the well
fare of the entire people. 1t will be
fearless in expressing its opinions,
always desiring t. be right, but al,
ways remembering the liability of
humanity to err, and, therefore,
standing ready to receive and be
benefited by instruction cleaned
from every accessible source.
One feature of the paper which
had been sadly neglected for several
months by our predecessor, and
which it will require considerable
time for us to restore, is the publ
cation of grange news of the State.
If we could afford it, we would hire
correspondents to send us intelli-
gence of this character, but as that
is out of the question, we ask it as
especial favor that members of the
Order generally will keep us ad-
vised Of what transpires, in their
respective neighborhoods, that pos
sesses general interest. 1t IS no:
necessary to write long letters. A
few lines, giving the news, is all tha,
is asked. We intend to spare nc
expense that we are able to meet tc
make the ADVANCE useful and de-
sirable newspaper to Patrons anc
every body else, and to effect this
we desire to increase our corps o
correspondents until it shall extend
throughout the State.
One thing should be borne in
mind by those who patronize us: we
are advocating the cause of those
who are least able to pay for thu
service we render. We have nc

OUR ANNIVERSARY.

Without doubt the poorest critics of thu
heroic are heroes themselves. The ,oul bent
on the accomplishment Of great designs loses
itself and the contemplation of its own pur
poses in the sublime enthusiasm of action. 1,
lis in fact in this very self-abnegation tina
true heroism consists. A cause may, anc
most frequently does become glorious, more
from the sacrifices made in its behalf thar
from tbs mere extent of its influences II
: must, however, SO far as it extends, rest Oh
truth and not selfshness, on good to others
or fdeii y to principle, and not on party OR
personal vengeance. Judged by this standard
the sacrifice made in behalf of the threatened
Por trampled rights of the weak against the
strong is always glorious, always heroic. The
victim is but type. The tyrant is COM
mon enemy. His overthrow, whether he be
the King Of England or the representative OF
the disgraced and degraded central power OF
"a still mighty Republic, will forever meri.
and command the consenting plaudits of the
good and true of all sections, and of all PEG
A Piles
Whatever animosities may unhappily sur
9vive the late civil war; we are unwilling t,
believe that the descendants of the heroes
|1776, in every section OF our country, fail to
recognize in those who fell on the 14th OF
September, 1874, the peers of that glorious
army of martyrs. whose blood has sanctife3
land enshrined the sacred rights of constitu
|ional liberty. North and South may differ
from ignorance or prejudice as to the occa
sion or cause of the strife, but all honest mel
must and will revere the memories aud en-.
balm the names of those who have died 70,
their convictions of the right. How much
more, then, shall we, who, with strong hopes
for our near political redemption, recognize
in the event of their death the great blow a
which the usurpation trembled and fell
cherish their memories and commemorate
their heroic sacrifices. Louisianians can no
have fallen SO low as to tolerate ingratitude
It can not be, and it never can be said, thai
The spirits of our fallen comrades look dow
in shame upon our reluctant tributes to their
devotion to our glorious Common wealth
In such moderate and serious manner,
hen, as becomes the time and occasion, lei
our people pay their tribute Of affection andI
gratitude to our fallen braves. Let US, while
We listen to the glorious tribute of our chosenI
orator this evening, renew the VOW that our
beautiful but down trodden Safe shall be, asE
Of right she ought to be, free and independ
ant of mercenary adventures and despoiline
administrations

ANOTHER MYSTERY.

Another tragedy SO mysterious in its every
phase that the veil may never be drawn aside,
occurred a. 1890 Sunday morning on Sixth
street, between Laurel and Annunciation, op-
|posite the residence of the victim, Charles
|Roebecker, who was discovered lying dead Oh
the banquette as above described.
Peter Robecker, brother of the deceased,
vas arrested at half-past o'clock the
same morning and locked up in the Sixth,
charged by Officer Smith, from information
received, with the murder.
The prisoner states that at II o'clock.
Saturday night, while going to a dance on the
'orner of Ninth and Annunciation streets, he
ZANE up on his brother, who was then lying
IN the banquette. He discovered that Oh arles
vas drunk, and not wishing him to be ar.
tested, told him to get up and go home
Charles, however, refused, when the service
Of a-policeman were called into requisition
they picked up the drunken man, and con.
yeying him to his residence, No. SO Sixth
street, they pushed him into the yard and
closed the gate.
Before many moments the deceased opened
he gate and followed him across the
street (where the body was found to the op-
oosite banquette; he again took his brother
home and proceeded on his way to the dance.
hat he knew nothing Of the sad accident
until be was arrested.

FHE BOYS CENTRAL HIGH
SCHOOL.
%. J. Edmunds (cOlOred) Placed il
the School as Professor of
Mathematics.
The Seniors Leave the School.

Tuesday morning, at the opening of the
Boys Central High School, on Burgundy street,
aear Bienville, it was discovered that E. J.
Edmunds, young colored man, who has
been acting heretofore as the Principal in the
Sumner School for colored children, had been
placed in the Central School as professor o,
mathematics. As soon as the boys of the Sc
aior class learned of the fact, they declined to
|accede to the arrangement, and, in body,
left the school.
This action on the part of tAe young men
we regard as highly commendable and we
hope it will be followed in every instance
where an attempt is made to mix the schools.
The question of the mixing the two races in
he public schools has been settled by the
best friends of both to be not only unadvis
able but positively injurious, and those who,
flor political purposes, attempt to work upon
the prejudices and natural antagonisms of the
whites, and rudely thrust negro children into
the schools to sit side by side with the white
children and negro men as teachers of white
youths, are enemies of the State and of both
races.
Let all the scholars in the public schools
emulate the example set them by the senio,
lass of the Boys Central High School, and
let the white teachers follow suit, and the
question Of the admixture of races in curl
public schools will soon be settled, and al
oew system inaugurated, by which the whites
and negroes will be provided with separate
but equally good schools. 1t is the earnes;
desire of everybody that the colored people
shall be educated; but the whites demand and3
should rigidly insist upon separate schools.

SUNDAYS CALENDAR OF
TRAGEDIES.
The Mysteries of Two Deaths.
How Did They Occur

At o'clock Sunday evening, according tc
the statement of witnesses, Mr.. Rub, cooper
by trade, committed suicide at the corner oil
Palmyra and Dorgenois streets, by shooting
himself in the left breast, near the region Of
: the heart, with an old-fashioned Colt revolver
Mr.. Constant Comment, foreman of the
cooperage establishment where deceased had
came to his residence on Dorgenois, near
Palmyra street, and fell asleep on the front
gallery. After he had slept awhile Comment
awakened him and invited him to breakfast
Rub accepted. When they had finished they
remained in the house quite awhile, and then
vent to Quinn's grocery store, on the cor
aner, where they remained all day, and in
.dulged from time to time in liquor.
At half-past o'clock in the evening they
eft the grocery, and when tn ey crossed the
bridge at the corner of Dorgenois a nd Pal
|myra, Comment invited Rub to accom- pany
him home and partake of supper, as thew had
both gone without dinner. Rub declining,
Comment started toward home, but had only
proceeded in that direction q short distance
when he was startled by the report of pistol
Turning around, he saw Rub with pistol in
his hand and the muzzle to his breast.
Comment rushed forward, and Selling the
weapon, forced it from the hand of his friend,
saying, "My God what are you doing.
Rub at this moment fell upon the crossing
lead. About this time Michael Smith, a stone
,utter, employed at Stroud's marble yard
Who had been sitting, as he states, upon the
steps of his resid ence near the corner, ran tel
he scene of action, and Selling the pistol
then held by Comment, charged the latter
With the murder Of Rub.
The wife of the deceased, who keeps gro
.ery at the corner Of Rocheblave and Palmyra
treets, came up at this moment, and also
charged Comment with the murder of he1
husband. Comment being thus accused sur
rendered himself to officer Lewis, who was
landing two blocks off, saying "Ruh has
committed suicide, but have been charged
With the murder" He was conveyed to the
Central Station, and there locked up. Michael
Smith, who was found with the pistol in his
hands, was also arrested, and charged with
being accessory to the shooting.
Several witnesses who were near the scenel
state that they saw Rub place the pistol to his
breast and fire the death shot, and that Com
nent was walking away with his back toward!
Rub. The general impression of the deceased
riends, is that Rub had committed suicide,
IS he had quarrelled and separated from his
wife, and it is also alleged that divorce sui

SEPTEMBER FOURTEEN TIL.
BY TIM LINKINwATER,

The muffied sounds Of weeping float
Afar across the plain,
Yet. mixing with the sounds Of woe,
There blends triumphant strain.
With mothers moan and wife's low sobs,
The orphans saddening sigh,
We mingle our regrets this hour
For men who dared to die.
Time is withdrawn-the past looms up!
1t seems the present hour!
A people lying helpless, prone,
Before tyrant's power;
Mems hearts are crushed in iron thrall,
Their ham know binding steel,
No taunt that can the helpless goad
That is not ours to feel.
Our wives insulted-daughters checks
To burn from touch Of shame;
Our broad fair lands laid desolate
All freedom but name.
God how the blood with feverish heat
Flies through the pulses now,
As one by one we count the wrongs
Then stamped upon our brow!
Men will arise, and vengeance stern
Find champions for the right,
Calm patience yield to sense of wrong,
Hate, justice, show their might
Before mine eyes that MONDAY comes,
When, with whirlwind's wrath,
Men turned, and, swift as ightning's flash,
Swept hirehngs from their path.
From tens Of thousands hearts went up
TIE Deums. Came such rest
As knows ths mother, when che first
Holds infant to her breast.
Yet tears were shed, for victory came
At price of loss of men,
Who valued life-less freedom-naaght
And fought and persisted then.
We mourned Gautier and Gourdain,
Betz, Toledano, too,
While Ger a Norman and Brulard
Tears fell with evening dew
And Lindsey, Considine and West,
n B07"- pa''ss, Graval,
ouu1, d claimed them all.
/xGN
Peace. d souls! The blood they gave
EmbaS lE "m in our heart
While memory holds its blessed power;
While honor bears part
In all that men hold sacred, true;
While fame exalts the brave;
While flowers are spread, or women kneel
Beside the honored grave.
When cycles of the after years
Have been dissolved in gloom,
And generations, yet to come,
Have lived their ife's short bloom,
These cherished names, so dear to US,
Will guiding matrons tell,
And youthful hearts shall thrill, as now,
When listening how they fell.
Where e'er men meet in council grave,
Or on the tented field,
Where ever valor claims place;
Or praises patriots yield;
While poets song, or history's page,
Records inspiring lay,
Will reverence to the braves be given,
Who claim our thoughts to-day.
