GRANGER'S DEPARTMENT.
COUNTY COUNCIL.

The Council met at Forest Grange
on the eth inst, Bro. Nj. w. Burr in
the chair. Bro. NJ. p. Andrews offered
the following Resolutions
lst. That we have learned with pro-
found regret, that the late Legislature
of our State failed to pass any law mod
flying our present law on Larceny.
2nd. That we consider it our duty to
keep this subject before the people, with
a view of bringing it up in the next
Legislature of our State, to the end of
having the law SO modified as TO confer
the power upon the County Courts to
Tx the character and extent of punish
ment for larceny.
BY Bro. V. NJ. Firor:
Resolved, That this Council suggests
that each subordinate Grange hold a
public meeting, once i'll every three
months, TO which they invite the neigh
boring public, 10 meet with them and
discuss questions relative 10 the best
and most profitable mode of farming
The foregoing resolution looks to
harmouizing ,ke dissenting portion OF
our agriculturist to the grange Organi-
zation, which aims to benefit and en-
tighten the farmers as class; and there
is no principle so effectual as free and
unrcserved association of the farmers by
meeting together and giving their ex-
perieuce and observation upon subjects
in which they are so deeply interested.
There was also resolution adopted
in favor of establishing a ''Pomona
Grange" This step was thought al.
Nisable in an economical point OF view
as it furnishes facility for representation
III the State Grange at less cost and IN
convenience than the present mode
Each subordinate grange is requested
to send delegates 20 next council meet
ing, prepared to pay their quoto-on'
dollar each-to pay for charter, etc.
Resolved, That Bro. Robt. w. Bay
lor is requested to attend the next meet
ing OF the County Council, and deliEe

the business aud interest Of the order.

would not appreciate it. Mr.. Harding
indorses Hayes, but takes no stock In
lieutenant, Sherman.
This is hardly fair. Sherman IS
simply executing the financial policy
of the republican party, endorsed by
the democratic party enacted into
law by congress, and approved with
more or less positiveness by both the
great parties in their national conven-
tions. How can Mr.. Harding endorse
HAYES and denounce Sherman Did
not Hayes pledge himself to this
policy? Was he not elected to carry
II Out9 Did he not declare that no
stems must be taken backward from
it! Why make Sherman the scape-
goat for the sins of two great political
parties!
If the resumption act means ''the
financial ruin of the nation, from which
there will be no recovery during the
present century," the remedy is to
support new party that will resist
the principles of which that resump-
ton act is but the outgrowth. De-
nouncing Sherman will not cure the
disease.

disease.

That able Democratic journal, the
st. Charles (Minn.) Times, thus puts
the argument upon the financial issue.
II is to be regretted that so many OF
the newspapers of our State pass by
these great questions with indiffer-
ence, while the rest of the great west
is profoundly interested in their dis
cuSsiOn:
..There is no reason why a green
back dollar, backed by the pledge of
IS 900. 900 of people owing $50, ,O0O,-
600 900 of property, should not pay
any debt, not otherwise pledged, that
a gold dollar will pay. BY abolishing
that pet institution of the republican
party, the national bank system,w which
costs the people of this country over
SOC. 100000 annually to support. and
enact that the government shall issue
ssgreenhacks" sufficient for the busi-
ness needs of the country, which shall
be a leyal-tender for all debts-eXcept
those heretofore pledged to he paid IN
coin-both private and public, includ-
ing duties on imports. and you Will
have circulating currency costing
but trfle, which if not quite will very
nearly approximate to the value OF
gold, and specie payment can then be
resumed without depressing any of
the business interests of the country.
We would then be in fact resting
upon hard money basis.the premium
on gold would, at least. be exceedingly
small, because a greenback dollar
would then be able to accomplish just
as much as dollar in gold, while it
could be handled more conveniently
in the transaction of the general busl-
ness of the country. But it will be
asked how will the government get
gold to pay the pledged gold interest
on the public debt! We answer, she
can go into markets and buy it the
same as she is buying silver to-day for
fractional silver coinage. land the extra
expense, if any, will be borne by the
whole people equally. But how shall
