A Changers Insurance Company.

We direct the especial attention of the
Farmers of Illinois to the communication
Of c. A. Starr, Of Lanna, explaining the
workings Of Cooperative System of Lite
Insurance which has recently been put in
operation among the Oranges in this State.
The plan is simple. devoid Of any slnuosi-
ties. and is intended to furnish insurance
At actual cost. Under proper management
and in the hands of men NhO command
the confidence of the public, there is no
reason why the Illinois Patrons Aid Society
should not number its members by hun
dreds of thousands, have its representa-
tives IN every town and village III the
State, and become an appreciated blessing
to the order whose espes lal interests
it represents. few weeks ago a state
ment of the salaries paid to the Presidents
of few OF the leading eastern insurance
companies was published, and the astound-
ing fact developed that these officials
roll in their luxnriously furnished arm
chairs, and direct the affairs Of their nstl-
tutions at the starvation salary Of so, 900
per annum and every farmer or mechanic
in this State or any other, who patronIzes
them, becomes the victim Of this whole
sale robbery. But we want every farmer
to whom the ADVOCATE is sent, to read the
letter for themselves, and communicate at
once with the gentlemen whose names arc
given, and who are prepared to furnish all,
information desired relative TO the cost,
plan of operation and objects Of the asso-
citation. The gentlemen who have come
to the front in this matter deserve the
thanks Of the community, and we sincerely
trust that abundant success may crown
their efforts.

WE regret to learn that Gen. SAMUEL f..
CARY has got mixed up with a Colorado
mine speculation, in which the courts Of
Cincinnati have decreed that he and his
partners shall pay back about S28 900 to
the stockholders Of the mine In card
dated April IL, he positively denies the
allegations as made by the eastern papers,
and says there has been no final decision
of the court. The General says in his card
81 have done nothing that an ashamed Of
and which honorable men do not do when
an opportunity offers. The inference from
this is that the relation he bears to the
TRANSACTION. is not entirely of a professional
character, but is a species of Emma Mine
operation, something like that Minister
Schenck got mixed up with.
1t is ut least unfortunate that General
Carey's name should be furnished by any
connection, real or otherwise, with any
equivocal operation, and we sincerely
trust that he will come out free from any
dishonorable imputation.

IL every mechanic and nottingham in the

who should know better, and who decline

ARBITRATION is working ike a charm
in several Eastern States. Says an ex-
change
On investigation We find the writer has
only looked az the subject from All employ
er's standpoint TIE facts Of the case are
that instead Of ten per cent. reduction the
employers offer twenty five two workmen
and two employers meet, and then elect
fifth man 10 boss the gang. After a great
many speeches have been made the fifth
man makes speech denouncing employers
in general, for their Infamous conduct to
their employees, and decides that the
twenty five per cent. Is entirely out Of
all reason, but that twelve and half is
fair So said and 40 agreed. In a month
OF two there is another reduction. This
has been the case in four manufacturing
towns in the east that we know Of during
the last three months. arbitration lCorks

Gentle holds the gateway to the east,
the status Of the toiling millions, the hui
man machines, whom the powers that be
have utilized to accomplish their purpose
remain the same. A truly progressive
civilization has nothing to hope from the
results Of such a contest National exig
encies, or the prospective welfare OF the
en- pire, override all humanitarian consld-
erations. An extension Of territory, the
preservation Of the balance Of power, or
the checkmating of a rival, outweigh hun
bred fold the welfare Of the christians in
the Turkish dependencies, or the carrying
out Of constitutional reforms. Territorial
acquisition on the one hand, and struggle
fer existenc e on the other, furnishes the
key to this situation.
War is cruelty, and You cannot refine
it, said the master Of war. No matter
who the victors may be, 1t leaves its
blighting curse on the rising and coming
generations Napoleon decimated France
of her manhood, to crafty his insane am
bition. loss she cannot recover for cen
fury to come, yet wiseacres wondered Why
! her legions were tran ped under foot
by German battalions at Sedan or Gravel
lot. War, as a rule, is waged bp tyrants,
to accomplish their own selfish purposes,
and the toiliug masses become their slaves
to carry their behests into execution.

Workingmen of America you who per
