ADlEU.

AOJ6O.
With this number our connection
with THE GRANGE ADVANCE ceases
and we feel like saying a goodbye
and God bless you to our numerous
patrons and friends who have so
kindly borne with US for the past
two years. We have not made the
ADVANCE all that we wished during
the past few months: Owing to the
stringency Of the times, we have, six
times during the past year; sent
four page instead of an eight page
paper, yet by our enlargement, and
part Of the time sending a twelve
page paper, we have given our read
ers much more reading than during
the previous year. The past year
has been a hard year on newly es-
tabished papers, over one thousand
having been compelled to suspend
in the United States within the year.
In the face of such a record, and of
the disasters and hard times that
have been met with and felt in every
branch of business, on the farm, in
the shop and in the store, We feel
like thanking our subscribers, ad-
vertisers and friends who have stood
by us and enabled us to tide over
the hard times, to pass in safety the
dangerous rubicon in which So ma
ny others have gone down. The
GRANGE ADVANCE has never had
any occasion to complain for lack of
subscribers or patronage, but we
have thought sometimes that those
of our friends who subscribed for
the paper at the beginning with
promise to pay, and have had the
paper to the present time without
paying d cent, ought at least to
thank those who have paid up, for
with prompt payment all around we
should have been able to have given
all more for their money. To
those who have aided us by their
pens, as we'll as to those who have
given their own time and endeavors
to increase the circulation Of the
ADVANCE, we shall always feel under
the deepest obligations.
In the editorial management of
this PAPER we have advocated what
we deemed to be right and for the
highest good, and have written as
we felt and believed at the time of
writing. We have sought to injure
no one, but have endeavored, so far
as we could, to advance the materi-
al, political and moral interests of
our own locality, city, county and
State. If we have said anything Sc
we're Of any one, we have said it, be-
cause we believed it desvrved, but
if we have unjustly censured any one
we beg ten thousand pardons. 80
err is human, to forgive, Divine"
and we do not profess infallibilitty,
nor anything more than the erring
judgement common to all men, but
we are most willing to forgive as we
hope to be forgiven.
Then with charity toward all,
and malice toward none, we bid
all our readers adieu, asking one and
all to treasure every good and true
thought which you have found in
'eADvANcE in the past and to forget
'orgive all the wrong, and to al
y a warm corner in your
II the former editor as he
you. We bespeak for our
:ssor. the same kind treatment
oh you have given us and all the
4tronage which he may merit, and
ask all not to forget that the success
and worth of a paper depends very
much upon its patrons, its friends
and contributors.

who mean business, with or rithOst inrttd-
tioRs We know we express the sentiment
of every one of the two hundred and fifty
odd delegates who attended the Anti-MOn-
opoly Convention, when we say that they
desire all to attend the Conference who
feel an interest in the project Of uniting
the forces of the farm, the mine, and the
workshop, for the elevation Of the whole,
and think they can do good by attending
it, and we feel that every bona Hde Labor
Reformer and Granger in the country will
coincide with us in our opinion that all ca"
10 good, even if they do no more than by
their presence testify to the legitimacy and
righteousness of the movement. Let those
who calculate to pack or to capture the
Conference, if there be any such, go on
with the building up Of their scheme and
let all those who believe that the success
of our movement depends upon the hon
esty and uprightness Of those prominently

SIR We are advised that a number Of
leading Labor Reformers and Changers in
the South and West. who had origin
ally intended to take part in the proposed
Cincinnati Conference on the eth prox,
have abandoned that intention because Of
fear that It is called, and will be run, in
the interest of one man The call for the
Conference having originated at the Anti
Monopoly Convention held in Harrisburg,
this State, on March I'd, Sd and 4th, the
undersigned are naturally anxious that it
should prove success, and feel themselves
constrained, therefore, to thus pubIically
announce that the members of that Con-
vention, when they agreed to the resolu-
tlons calling the Conference, had but one
purpose in sight. They felt convinced Of
the wlsdo., of making an effort to unite
the worklhghen and farmers Of the coun-

we're content to e''rust the preliminary
work of confsrenO, az representative
workingmen and farmer, n ba held with
that view, to the gentlem,p named in the
resolutions, which, we beleve Won have
published.
If any or all these gentlemen sava bae,
using the authority granted them NTH snv
other object, they have over-steppeo their
instructions. If they have decided to "a.
tracise any Of our friends for opinion
sake, or with the intention Of transform

selfish or sinister purpose, they are reckon

Arkansas.

This state was pulled out Of the political
slough of despond in the last hours of
Congress, by the passage Of joint reso-
luton declaring that the existing state
government of Arkansas should not be
interlered with by the general govern
ment, or any of its departments The
resolution was championed in the House
by Judge Poland Of Vermont, who was
its author and chairman of the special
committee upon the affairs Of that state.
His speech in advocacy of the measure
was happy compound OF the serious and
the .jocose, and was listened to with close
attention by the members. who left their
him. He protested that the national gov
eminent had no more right to interfere
with the existing State government of
Arkansas than England or France had.
This was undoubtedly, he said, the last
public political act he would be called on
to perform. He had never expected to be
called on to combat so monstrous a doc
trine as was advanced in this case. He
was actuated by no other feeling in this
matter than desire for the welfare and
prosperity of this country.
As result, the resolution was adopted
by vote of 149 to 80 The action caused
the greatest rejoicing in Arkansas Con-
fidence was restored, business started up
and a new era Of prosperity seemed opened
to her people In the evening after the
news was received at Little Rock grand
jubilee was holden, at which many citizens
appeared wearing the usual dress of Judge
Poland-blue coat and brass buttons
