What do you think, young friends, of the
hundreds of thousands who are trying to
cheat the nselves aud Others into the belief
that alcoholic drinks are good for them Z
Are they not to be pitied and blamed ? Do
you want to be one of those wretched men
If we are to have drunkards in the future,
some of them are to come from the boys TO
whom ! am writing; and | ask you again
if you want to be one of them MOP OF
course you don't Well, have a plan for
you that is ust as sure to save you from
such fate as the sun is to rise tomorrow
morning. 1t never failed it never will
fail; it cannot fail and think it is worth
knowing. Meier touch liquor in any form.
That's the plan, and it is not only worth
knowing, but it is worth putting into prac-
tice. | know you don't drink now, and it
seems to you as if you never would But
your temptation will come, and it probably
will come in this way You will find your
self, some time, with number of compan-
ions, and they will have bottle of wine on
the table. They will drink, and offer it to
you. They will regard it as "a manly prac-
tce, and very likely they will look upon you
as milksop if you don't indulge with them.
Then what will you do EhY What will
you do ? win you say, Boys, none of that
stuff for me know a trick worth half,a-
dozen of that ?" Or will you take the glass;
with your own common sense protesting, and
your conscience making the whole draught
bitter, and feeling that you have damaged
yourself, and then go off with hot head
and skulking soul that at once begins TO
make apologies for itself-just as the soul of
Colonel Backus does, and will keep doing
during all his life ~. G. Holland, in ST.
Nicholas.

The Farmers Alliance.

Some, unacquainted with the platform of
that society, have complained of the Grange
as political organization But the New York
farmers do not seem to regard the Grange as
of any value for political purposes, and have
recently organized what they call the Farm
ers' Alliance" Among those prominent in
this movement are Patrick Barry, President
of the New York State Agricultural Society,
and of the Western New York Horticultural
Society Colonel G. w. Hoffman, President,
and w, A. Armstrong, Secretary of the FL
mira Farmers Club; Professor w. X. La
zenby, of Cornell University; A. A. Hop
kins, p C. Reynolds, L. Moody aud +. w.
Stewart. The purpose of this organization
seems to find expression in such remarks as
the following, from different speakers: Mr.
II. Glass, of the Western New York Farm
ers' Club, who served as chairman, said, alt
is favorable indication that farmers are
becoming thinkers. If thinking bayonets
are invincible, surely thinking ploughs are ir.
resistible. The agricultural interest, though
first in Importance, holds very inferior place
in government. This is time of organiza
ton among all classes of business interests.
Unless farmers organize they will be left fal
in the rear" Mr. j. g. Shepard, of Genesee,
said, ave are too partisan. We all have a
political hook in our noses, and are pulled
and hauled about at the caprice of schemine
politicians. We must organize to prevent
evil and obtain redress"

THERE'S wandering genius around the
Central Market who has for sale an article
described by him to the public in loud
tone as follows; " Gentlemen, British
nobleman invented this article and he spent
eighteen years thinking and experimenting
over it. You will observe that it is glass
cutter, a can-opener, a knife-sharpener,
putty-knife, a scissors-sharpener, a jack
knife, nailcleaner and bread-knife com
bined. 1t is light, durable, compact, beau
tful aud convenient, and the price is only
twenty-five cents. Who takes the next 2"
lie was talking away yesterday forenoon,
when hard-handed son of toll approached,
aud asked to inspect one of the articles.
The man explained its merits and uses,
commented on its different uses, aud added
-" You want one of course 7" | guess
not" said the farmer. "Why" "Oh, it
doesn't seem to be of much use" "Great
spoons but haven't explained to you that
it can be used for eight different purposes
What more can you ask ?" Wan, it seems
TO me that you ought to have con-sheller
hitched on TO it somewhere !" slowly replied
the agriculturist, and he laid it down and
walked away Philadelphia bulletin.

New ENGLAND thrift was illustrated in the
life of Farmer John Conant, of Jaffrey,
thousand dollars to charity. One of sixteen
children, he bought farm at the age OF
twenty-six, with one thousand three hundred
and forty dollars, given him by his father,
and from this, and through judicious, non
speculative investments, he made fortune
He married well, studied some at home, went
to the legislature, and ranked high in the
community. He gave seventy thousand dol
lars to the agricultural college, and contrib
uted to the state insane asylum, the New
London academy, the Jaffrey schools and
churches, and deserving poor. lie didn't
have to "go West to do all this, either.

IT may well humiiate intelligent farmers
when they see few members of board of
trade in city, dozen bankers, legal as
ISOLATION or other small organized class, have
more influence in shaping the action and
destiny of the state or nation than million
of farmers. But intelligent farmers do not
complain of the action OF these other classes.
They have only properly studied the power
of association, and availed themselves of
their intelligence and organization to WELD
such influence as they possess. The farmer
is treated with just as much consideration as
he deserves

ALMOST UNCoNsCIoUsLY.-Ar recent wri-
ter on horticulture describes the struggle for
life among the plants He says Each
plant endeavors, almost unconsciously, TO de-
stroy his neighbor, to occupy his ground, to
feed upon his nutriment, to devour his sub
stance" Now we submit that this almost "
will not do. We have too much of this soft
way of dealing with moral wrong. If plants
in any degree consciously" endeayor to
commit these crimes, they should be held to
strict responsibility, and taught, in some
effective way, that such conduct cannot be
permitted

WORKING BULLs.--rhe editor of the New
England Farmer says, we think with great
reason; awe have little doubt that bulls
would be more useful as breeders, and more
easily handled at all times, if they were kept
in pairs and worked moderately, like oxen.
They would get better treatment, and would
lead much less artificial life than many of
them do now, Then the number kept would
be doubled which would without doubt,
have the effect of increasing the vigor and
hardihood of the young stock produced from
them"

A story comes from Omaha to the
! effect that General Crook narrowly es-
capped assassination at the hands of
Crazy Horse on the occasion of the
recent disturbance at Red Cloud Agen-
cy. Crazy Horse had been working to
breed discomfort among the Indians
and urging them to go on the warpath,
but could not succeed. Among the
northern Indians he had been pretty
powerful; but when he came to the
reservation, he found so many chiefs
who were regarded as his s%uperiors,
that he lost all his influence, and be-
came angry and ill,natured. General
Crook sent word that he wished to talk
with him and had started out with
Lieut.. Clark. DR.. Irwin, the agent, and
an interpreter to see him. On the way
down to his camp General Crook was
oyertaken by a courier, who stated
that Crazy Horse in conversation with
his men had said that he intended to
talk pretty saucy to the General, and
in case the General should object, he
would kill him. General Crook and his
companions, who were unarmed, there
upon abandoned the idea of having n
talk with Crazy Horse, and the p%lotter's
arrest and death followed.

TINE OLD FIGHT.

II we understand the situation, Al
bany county politicians are renewing
their old fight against Cheyenne and
her interests. We are thus early re-
minded by the Sentinel of the coming
warfare between these two counties in
the next legislature. All the bitter
ness of former legislative campaigns is
again to come to the surface, made
much more bitter by the Laramie City
organ, its venomous tongue, and mali
cious misrepresentation.
If Albany county people can afford
to follow Hayford's lead in this respect,
we have no particular fault to find; We
have no favors to ask, and no axes to
grind in the legislature. Laramie
county's permanent growth and pros
perity is assured, and our jealous neigh
bors can do us no harm, nor can they
stop the wheels of progress. We coun-
sci our friends in the legislature to pay
no heed to the buster of Albany county
politicians or its newspaper. They
have an object in thus early opening
the war-threatening to do US all pos
sible injury-unless certain concessions
are made Ito them in advance. Our
advice is to let them severely alone;
Albany county does not rule the legis-
lature, nor have her members the most
potent influence over the delegations
from the other four counties. We know
who our friends have been in former
years, and who will come to the legis-
lature, next November, unbiased and
unprejudiced by selfish interests or
jealousy; and it behooves lis to extend
to them the hand of good-fellowship.

Retrenchmaut and Reform.

The tidal wave of retrenchment and
reform has rolled up against the City
Hall, and at the Council meeting, yes
terday, it was proposed to reduce the
police force by the discharge of three
men; and to reduce the salaries of the
city clerk, treasurer and engineer.
This will effect Il saving during the
next three months of not less than
81, 150 90, or more than half the cost of
laying the pipes and putting the water
works in motion. These are the esti-
mates Of one of the best posted alder
men we have, and N whose opinion is
given after careful figuring and due
considerations. He thinks that the
marshal can manage the city with the
aid of one policeman, and have an easy
time of it. Marshal Slaughter OBJ
jects to having the force cut down to
one man, but thinks he a get along
with two. Other measures looking to
the reduction of the enormous. cost of
running the city government are in
contemplation, and we hope to an
nounce the consummation of all within
a day or two.

complete it within sixty days from that
date. r
A few bills were presented and al
lowed.

sition to reduce the police force by dis
charging two or three men, and the
matter was referred to the committee
on police with full power to act.
On motion the Council adjourned.
