Spend your Money at Home.

An xchange gives the following tel
reasons VIII; people should spend thei
money at home. We preaent them to ou
r. aders. hoping that they will give then
the consideration which they deserve:
1. 1t is your home; you cannot improv'
1t much better by taking money away t.
spend or invest,
2. There ia no way of improving &
place SO much as by encouraging GOOD
merchants, good schools and good people
to settle among you, and this cannot pc
done unless you spend your money at
home.
8 Spend your money at home, because
there IS where you generally get it. It is
your duty.
4. Spend your money at home, because
when it is necessary for you to get credit,
1t is of your own merchants you haye gen.
orally 10 get it, end they must wait for
the money. Therefore when you have
cash in hand spend it at home
s Spend your money At home. Ii will
make better merchants of your merchants,
they can and will keep better assortments
and sell at .ower rates than if the only
business they can do is what is credited
out while the money goes to other places.

thing to be done is TO direct the adj
miration, to point out to them what
qualities and men are deserving of adj
miration. Men Of low associations
will certainly take pleasure only in
people who arc low. A person who
is and always has been horse-jockey
has no desire to be statesman. His
ideal is another jockey who possesses
some skill in the business that he does
not. For while we admiae in others
those characteristics in which we are
deficient, yet we do not alwayc admire
their characteristics. Thence arises
the necessity for giving those whom

The Duty of Patrons as Citizens.

As we are approaching a political
canvass, which may become heated and
excited, it may be well enough to call
the attention .of our brethren to the
principal of our Order, as set forth in
our Declaration of Purposes"
The Grange knows no politics.
Members of all parties may assemble
in our halls as friends as brothers, and
no allusion ever made to their political
creed-no partisan harangue-the
claims of no candidate for an office
ought ever to be heard when we are
assembled as Patrons. Yet we con-
stantly teach those grand principles of
purity and honor and patriotism which
underlie all true politics. We teach
that no candidate of any party ought
to be voted for, for any office, who is
political trickster-who will resort
to dishonest means to get office, and
who will not advocate the right and
interest of the people against monop-
olies, frauds, bribery and political
knavery of all kinds.
1t is the bounden duty of every Pat
ron as a citizen TO take an active part
in all doings of the party with which
he may be afliliating, to attend all its
primary meetings and conventions and
see that none but pure and honest men
are nominated or supported for any
office; TO work hard to break down all
tricky rings in his party, and try to
send up delegates to the conventions
who will repre- sent the true interests
of the farmers of the county, and give
them that influence in the legislation
of the land which their interest de-
mand. No one can object to this, for
only in this way can the politics of the
country be purified and the huge steal
ings and trickery, credit mobilier
frauds, and salary grabs, and our de-
PRAYED political system crushed out
forever.
Then, Patrons, assert your rights as
citizens. Insist, at all times, that only
good, true and pure men OF any party
shall be placed in the front, and we
will soon see reform everywhere, our
taxes reduced, monopolies restrained,
our laws honestly administered, and
then comes that good time for which
we have been so long hoping and wait
ing. How can we celebrate the Cen
tennial" of our glorious Republic any
better Monthly Talk.

Improve the Singing.

The frequent songs in the ceremonies
of the Grange work is one of its beau
ties, which gives life and variety to
the Order. Frequently we have visit
ed Oranges where they have no music
or such poor singing that it chilled our
ardor for the work before us.
We trust general effort will be
made in Oranges to improve the sing
ing. Leaders are wanted, and to Sc
cure these the best singers should be
selected and requested to assemble
alternately at each others homes and
practice the pieces to be sung in the
Grange. Frequently we have visited
Grang es, in which brother leads of
the song with bold, smooth voice,
followed by number of soft, musical
voices which causes pleasant thoughts
of highest joy to fill the heart. Let
the Patrons strive to improve the
music in the Oranges.
The Wichita city eagle. [volume] (Wichita, Kan.) 1872-1883, 1876-08-24

There is nothing which the Grange
movement now needs as much as lead
ers. Thus far there has been super
abundance of takers, that have served
every purpose that such people can
serve. Action-prompt action-must
now take the place of speechifying.
And it is important that the Patrons
should understand accurately the
quality Of man fitted for directing.
We believe the Patrons are ready for
action ON great matter that interests
them deeply. Now is the time for the
great captain TO appear; and sirs,
when you come to examine, you will
find that these are exceedingly rare.
There is nothing being done. Big
meetings are held, and great expecta-
lions are raised, but the movement
toward the settlement Of vital ques-
tions are very slow. There is too
much time spent in mere palayer and
debate-smoke, the greater part Of it,
with hardly bit of fire below"
