unenterprising drones The former have
no cause for discouragement, for the lat

Grange must, like every other organized
social body, pass through the stages of
reaction, trial and discouragement, be-
fore it settles down to its permanent
work. Farmer Friend.

" feel somewhat alarmed at the aspect Of
Indian affairs at present, and being al
most entirely unarned we address you in
hopes of possible assistance. We learn
that guns are being distributed at Walla
Walla Could you not make arrangements
to send us fifteen stands, We viii be re-
sponsible for the safe return OF all arms
sent us There may be no danger, but in
case there should be it Is well to be pre-
pared Respectfully, I. J. SMITH.
p s. Be sure and send ammunition
1t is of considerable importance 10 keep
this thoroughfare open. Some think ten
or fifteen men ought to be stationed here
TO do this | think We can take care of
ourselves, provided We are ready. How
ever this is matter for you to think of.
ANOTHER CALL would say in addi-
ton to what has been already said by our
citizens, that II would not be asking too
much of our government TO station few
men 10 sguard the ferry. In case OF
an attack, The first thing would be to cut
off all communication and the United
States Mail by destroying the ferry.
Every thing seems to be quiet al present

THE OBJECTIVE POM A ''sOlId
North" is the objective point now with
the Butler Blaine crowd. They know that
HAYES work in South Carolina and Lou
isana is finished, signed, sealed and de
leyered. and that it cannot be disturbed
or demolished. They do not expect 10
regain control of the Southern States,
but want to rekindle sectional animosi-
ties, excite the passions of the North and
keep up forever war OF ctions. Strife
Is their natural element, Upon II they
have fourished in the past, and upon it
they base their hopes of preferment in the
future. Peace and harmony will not tend
to secure the triumph of their ambitious
purposes, and hence III ir voice is for
strife Country is nothing to them only
rs it can be put to their own use.

SWINGING ROUND THE CIRCLE.-Mr.
HAYES of Ohio is not going TO spend the
Summer at Long Branch, as Grant used
TO do nobody has gwen HIM cottage.
Besides, the time between this and the
meeting of Congress is too precious to be
spent quietly at the seaside, so Hayes
proposes to pass his vacation swinging
round the circle, with his hat over his
eyes, begging people to say that they do
not see the brand of fraud on the front of
his head.
, 1877-07-07

THE STOLEN Presidency. Hayes may
rest in peace-if peace be possible to a
creature of fraud and conspiracy-sO far
as Mr.. Tilden is concerned. There will
be no personal controversy over the stolen
Presidency. The wrongs of the people
mnst be avenged by and through constitu-
tional means at the appointed time. But
the people will not forget. They have
been rudely robbed of rights purchased in
blood and held sacred for century. That
principle OF absolute acquitsence in the
will of the majority which is the corner
stone of our institutions has been fragrant
" violated The authors of this outrage
are to be arraigned, not before the bribed
judges Bipartisan courts and commits
sions, but in the high court Of public
opinion, where all technicalities will be
brushed away, all quibbles rejected, and
the main issue fairly tried.

NEIGHBoRS' QUAGREL.-A week or two
since fight occurred up in the Blue Noun
tains between John Medlock and his son on
one side, and the four johnson boys on the
other In the course of the row old man
Medlock was struck over the head with a
club and severely injured. Three of the
johnson boys We're arrested and taken be-
fore Justice Kirkland, who after hearing the
evidence discharg ged them. The Johnson boy
who used the club mana ged to escape and Is
supposed to have fed the country.
