POLITICS IN THE GRANGE.

The farmers in this country are not only
laborers and tillers of the soil, but they
are, or at least ought to be, free citizens.
They should not only be cultiyators OF the
ground, but should at the same time cul
tivatc the mind with which good God
has endowed them. There are other means
of education besides primary schools, col
leges, and universities. The most impor-
tant lessons in, life are not learned from
books, but from contact with our fellow
men, The average farmer rarely takes the
time to search the library for books on the
principles of political economy and the
science of government. The consequence
is, bis only ideas on these important
branches of science are such as he may
have obtained from his partisan newspa-
per or communicated by partisan leaders.
He has simply adopted them without ma
ture reflection just because they are the
principles taught by his party. The pur-
pose OF. the Grange is TO exclude from the
meetings everything which even squints
towards partisan politics, and in lieu there
of to inculcate the true principles as laid
down in the science of political economy,
which, in fact, constitute the very basis of
all good government .e...<e. i IT,
The politics as taught in the Grange
are intended to enable the farmers to fit
themselves to fill with ability, any position
in the government. Not that we desire
any class legislation, but that our profess
ion and our interests shall no longer be ig
nored In the Grange meetings we can
come together as good citizens, looking
not only to our own welfare and interests,
but the welfare and interests of the whole
country, and of all people of whatever
class or profession; and calmly and intelli-
gently consider some of those expensive
| trappings of government both State and
national, and see if they cannot be dis
pensed with, without any ve:X great in
| jury or detr;ment to the public service.
| We will go flrther, and see ii some very
important Improvements may not be in
| troduced to enhance the general prosper
ity, and while doing this we will also have
an eye to our own great agricultural in
terest, upon which rests the prosperity of
all Others We will constantly and per-
| sistently insist that the agricultural bu-
reau shall be recognized, and shall be
! conducted in the interests of the farming
community, instead of partisan politicians,
and that it shall have at its head Cabinet
officer, who will see to it that it be SO
| conducted.
We shall not be turned aside from on,
proper and legitimate work by the sense
less cries of the partisans papers and the
seedy politicians, that the Grange is po-
ltical organization. Nor will we rest con-
tented until the great industrial interests
of the country are confded to those who
will truly represent the wishes and supply
| the wants of their constituents.-V Virginia
| Granger.

exalt us to a position where we may be
sunshine to all around us-SbiriI Of Kan
WE MIST HELP OURSELVES.

Worthy Master d. II. Thing gives this
good advice to the patrons of Maine, and
it is applicable to members of the Order
as we'll here as there:
Don't let politics and politicians, bun
combe orators and imported stump speak
ers take us by storm and lead us captive
at their will We always hear fine stories
and fair promises Just before election, but,
brother farmers, let me tell you, and espe-
ciatly brother Patrons let me say to you,
that when we have help it will be when
we hell ourselves. While we, as an organi-
cation, make war upon no other legitimate
business, while we claim TO be friends of
all, who, by necessary toll OF occupation
contribute to the wealth and happiness of
the world, let us see to it that he who
feeds all shall be no longer the servant of
all. While becoming Patrons we relin
quish none Of the rights of citizenship,
vet let us iealously guard the door of the
Grange, and see to it that we do not inn
pair or lessen our usefulness by allowing
party politics place within our gates.
He who would prostitute our noble Or
der to the interest or use of any political
party, clique, or ring, would, to the extent
of his influence, deal it death blow,
while he who would make use of the in.
fluence which his position gave him, to
further his own political interests, would
not only violate his solemn obligation, and
sacrifice the good opinion of every mem
Der of the Order, but would, at the same
time, take away that setfsresbect which
conscious integrity alone can sgiVe, and
which is dearer to those who possess it
than life itself.

Editor Patron. On yesterday, Brother
Darden, Master of the State Grange, filled
an appointment previously made to ad-
dress this community in the interest of the
Patrons of Husbandry. His clear and for
chile delineations of. the evils of class leg
islation on the material interests of the ag-
ricultural community were thrilling and
convincing. The remedy he proposed
cooperation among the producers-is
simple, effective and indispensable. IN
less the toiling millions come to the front
in some way, as suggested by him, the
time is not distant when we will be bound
hand and foot and unable to help our
selves. The outlook is fearful and omi-
nous. But with proper exertion on the
part of the laboring classes, may we not
venture to hope that there is "a good time
coming?" a .du,~

AT length the sultan is said to have ac-
cepted the English programme of reforms
in Asia Minor. These reforms were stipu.
lated for last year in the convention under
which England obtained possession of
Cyprus, and bound herself to defeat the
sultan's Asiatic possession. It has taken
a year to bring the slow moving statesmen
OF Constantinople to the point of agree
ment as to the details of the scheme and
the infinitely more difficult task of putting
1t IN operation remains to be begun. There
IS not much reason to expect that any
practical Improvement In the admini,tr
ton will be accomplished while the gov
ernment remains even nominaIIy 10 the
hands of the Turks Their obstructive
capacities are enormous, and the natural
antipathy of the race to changes will be
intensified in the case by the reluctance of
the ruling-which is the plundering-
class to surrender the privilege of robbing
the people which has so long been enjoyed.
The difficulty experienced in Egypt,w be
met in intensified form at every step at
tempted in Asia Minor; and it is not likely
to be overcome there without more
violent struggle than the Egyptian spoiIs
men are able to make.

The attorney general has been called
upon for an official expression concerning
the effect of the arrears of pensions law
upon pensioners living In the soldiers
homes. The board of managers of the
homes claim that the arrears allowed in
mates must be paid into the funds of those
institutions, the rules of administration
requiring the surrender of all pensions
and claims, The act providing for the
payment of arrears says nothing about the
homes, however. and it will probably be
decided, as 1t should be, that the money is
the individual property of the pensioners.
The fund provided for the maintenance
of the homes is already greatly in excess
of their legitimate necessities, and there is
no reason for increasing them.
