A correspondent in New York State
comments on my statement in the Feb
ruary number, that the sickness and
death caused by neglect of proper
drainage, is 10 be considered as coming
not from the act Of God, but from the
act of man and he goes on to say that
God has established certain unchang-
able laws which cannot be violated
with impunity. This was precisely my
own meaning, aud thought ] had sug-
gested it with sufficient clearness. The
Only point for which / contend is, that
it is in TIE last degree stupid, when
we lose friend by typhoid fever, to
accept the loss with resignation, as an
act of special Providence committed
for some inscrutable purpose. 1t is,of
course, q result of our violation of an
established law, but the purpose is by
no means inscrutable, and, as a death
could have been prevented by apreper
regard for our own responsibilities,
and proper attention to our own du-
ties, it seems to me entirely proper to
say that it was caused, so far as any
thing in the world can be caused, by
the act of man. The law being estab-
lished, we disregard it at our own risk,
and must accept the penalty as punish
ment for our own fault, coming in q
way by no means Observation-Disclosures

4 Commercial Paper on the Grange.

Now and then a commercial paper of
high standing comes to the rescue of
our organization. For example, the
Milwaukee Journal Of Commerce thus
speaks of it:
"The grange movement is broad
enough TO achieve permanent success.
Pretended friends may mislead and
abuse it for time, but they cannot
stop it. 1t is rapidly teaching the
farmers and middlemen their respect
i've duties and their respective rights.
1t is teaching the public servants,
whether politicians or corporations, to
know their place. 1t is helping to de-
termine what is just between all par
ties. The association of men against
the association Of dollars is entirely in
accordance with the laws of political
economy. Whatever this grange asso-
citation attempts in opposition to those
laws will surely fail. We believe in
the Grange, and believe that there is
code called political economy" of
uuwritten principles of justice and
common sense governing men in their
relations TO another"

No legitimate business can succeed
without continued effort. We may lay
this down as rule. The Grange does
not differ materially from any other
business in this respect. To succeed
well we must perseYere. Members
must attend meetings; no time is lost
by attending grange meetings, though
you should meet weekly and take q
half days time from your work for
each meeting. If the thought and in
telligence induced by your meeting
with your grange are applied in your
daily labor it viii moro than compen
