The Grange Must be revived.

STATE G-angc:
Fr0a. Solstlssrn Ls;sigs,5s.ez--
The Grange Must he Revived.
There are good Patrons throughout the
State whose Oranges have been suspended,
but who would not remain idle il they
could avoid 1t. We would direct the atten-
ton OF all such to the action OF the State
Grange at its late meeting, in It's efforts to
remove all difficulties in the way OF reor-
ganization, and revival OF Grange interest.
BY resolution it has greatly simplifed the
process by which demits may be obtained bv
those members OF dormant Oranges who
wish to renew their connection with the
Order; and recognizing the fact that many
have become lukcwarm from legitimate
causes, it sought to induce such to return to
he Grange by the remission OF all arrear-
ages due TO the State Grange.
We regard this action of the State Grange
right, under the circumstances, and the
time most propitious for the reorganization
of the dormant, or the formation Of Union
Oranges; for in almost every neighborhood
there are few good Patrons. whose Oranges
have been suspended, and who might unite
and begin work again. under improved aus
pices.
There are abundant evidences coming
from all parts Of the State OF 4 growing in
terest and activity amongst Patrons and
healthier progress toward the contamination
of Grange purposes, because they have !
clearer conception Of them, and understand
better the practical application of it, meth
DDS, whilst they realize that the interests At
stake are too important. and the organization
of too great value to farmers TO be lightly
surrendered.
Our greatest anxiety at present, however,
Is to have the Oranges of the State put in
good working condition. When that Is
done, the next step Will be to utilize its
methods in securing the benefits shat NC cx-
pect from the Order. Thorough organization
is first necessary, requiring not only united
effort, hut individual toll and self-Sacrilice,
from which no good patron should shrink,
for the promise Is only to the faithful. Nor
should we be dismayed by reduced numbers;
though full Oranges are very desirable vet
few Jealous members. imbued with the
spirit Of the Order, may ditfuSe throughout
an entire county the most healthful Grange
influences. Let them organize with u quorum
that will always secure a working number;
digest we'll their plans for CARRYING out the
purposes OF the Order, particularly lis cduca-
tional, and with judicious application of its
trade principles, prompt attendance to their
meeting and discharge of their duties, they
viii not only realize the greatest good them
selves, but they viii attract others to their

Hon. J. L. Rosson, stock agent of Mem

day, paying and promising to pay for stock
killed. A combination of the good citizens
from the Hardeman county line to the Shell
by line, embraced within the territory of the
so-called Bell county, has been formed to
thwart the half price system adopted by said
railroad. A competent lawyer will be en-
ployed for so much per annum to prosecute
said railroad, for damages in killing their
stock, and joint stock company of these
citizens, by small outlay, can and will get
their rights without the suggestion and un-
heard of proposal by the RAILROAD. That
combination think, and believe-yes they
know they can get members of the legal
profession to cope with the railroad lawyers.

the earth at night, but fail to rise in

to which it was applied last season.
No danger of killing any vegetables
