LETTER FROM WORTHY LECTU.
| RER B. B. BOONE, OF THE MIS-
STSSTPPT STATE GRANGE

Editor Patron, l had the pleasure of
meeting the Monroe County Grange on
the 24th, which convened with Stonewall
Grange near the old town of Athens. I
found Stonewall Grange live institution,
and one which does credit to the Order.
I delivered a lecture to the Patrons assem-
bled, and was listened to with marked re-
spect and apparent interest.
The County Grange met at II o'clock,
and we had quite an interesting meeting.
The Grange adjourned late in the evening,
and met again at night, and remained in
session until near II o'clock. We had sew
eral interesting speeches, and quite spi-
rited discussion upon the subject of coop
Grafton. The good sisters of Stonewall
Grange gave us splendid repast at noon,
which was practical demonstration OF
their skill in preparing the products of the
farm for the table. We had fine turnout
for the busy season. The fifth degree was
conferred upon about twenty-five men,
bers. The officers were elected and il
stalled. Everything was conducted in a
style which did credit to the Patrons of
the county, and especially to the officers
of the County Grange. The neat hall,
tastefully decorated, harmonized beauti-
fully with the regularity of the proceed
ings, and presented a fit habtation for the
presiding genius of our noble Order.
The Grange elected a fine set of officers,
whose energy will soon tell upon the Or
der in Monroe. Prominent among these
are Bros Gordon, Master, Saddler, Over
seer, and Tatum, Lecturer-men skilled in
the work and fully imbued with the noble
principles of the Order That true and
tried Matron, Sister Willis, was elected
Ceres O, that we had more such devo-
ted Matrons in each county!
The more / mingle with the members OF
the Order, the more | feel it my duty to
do all i'll my power to help them in the
great work. | am satisfied that the great
est difficulty we have to encounter is the
want of leaders who can arouse the people
to action, and / am sure that if the prom
inent members of the Order in each county
will lend their aid, the work will &C
bravely on. have at all times tried to
| impress the members with the importance
of taking THE PATRON. | am sure thai
if we could get THE PATRON circulated
extensively through the State, that it vii
do more to revive the Order than anything
we can do l find that all those who take
THE PATRON are fully alive to the grea
| interest for which you labor.
The outlook in this section of the State
is hattering. At this time, the farmers art
busy, and have little time to devote to re
organization, but am sure that the worl
will go bravely on. The farmers do no
intend to give up the ship.
I attended the Alcorn County Grang'
on the 4th, and we had quite lively ant
interesting meeting. All present wer
determined and hopeful. They seemed t

We have often referred to the fact that
Paris ought to have cotton compress. AL
though they have one already in Sherman,
another and more costly one is soon to be
erected. We admire the business-li like
way they lave of pushing enterprises in
that city.-North Texan, Paris,

The compress would be thrown aside in

THE BANNER GRANGE COUNTY
OF THE SOUTH WEST.

To show how the Patrons of Bell county
Texas, work, we make the following ex-
tract from letter from Worthy Overseer
A. ]. Rose, of the State Grange, dated at
Salado, Bell county, April 23d:
l intended to write you fully about our
Grange week" we had here in Salado,
beginning with the first Wednesday of
this month, but probably others have writ
ten, as we had Bros. Kellar, Cater, and
other prominent Patrons with us. a
The Salado Cooperative Association
met on Wednesday. Thursday, the Coun-
ty Grange met in our hall at 10 a. m con-
tinued in session all day, except for refresh
ments. Late in the evening, supper was
set in the hall by the noble sisters. We
think we have as patriotic Matrons as can
be found anywhere. At night, the fifth
degree was conferred on over fifty. We
| had a crowded house-every section of
| the county was represented.
On Friday morning, the County Grange
resumed work, and closed at II o'clock.
| when our manufacturing company met,
elected a Board of Directors for the next
year, and discussed the propriety of max
ing one grand effort to start ssnew pro-
cess" cotton factory next fall. The Board
will meet on the 18th of May to determine
what course we will pursue in the matter
AT 8 p. m. the Board of Directors of the
Texas Cooperative Association met and
transacted some business, discussed Co op-
Grafton, etc, and selected Salado as the
! place to hold the annual meeting, which
is to take place on the second Thursday of
| July next
On Saturday, Salado Grange, No. I,
held its regular meeting, with full attend
ance-about fifty members. Several pc
titions were received, and still the work
goes on. The Order is not dead yet! How
some are disappointed! But it must be So
AT all these meetings peace and harmo-
ny prevailed, and great interest was man
ifested-more, [ think, than / have ever
witnessed before. -..

Our new heading is attracting good
deal of attention from the press and sub
scribers. Worthy Overseer Rose, of the
Texas State Grange, writes:
"THE PATRON with its. new head is
beautiful You do not know how | re-
joiced to see it in its new garb and to hear
of its increased circulation. The heading
is an index to the contents of the paper,
and it will be highly appreciated by all its
friends. | have no fears of the future of
any Subordinate Grange where ten of its
members are regular readers of THE PA
TRON. | shall be still more pleased to hear
of its being taken and read by twenty five
thousand Patrons in the Southwest. If
THE PATRON was read every week, what
a change for the better would soon take
place! To that end, shall most earnestly
labor We must make our baber a real
power in the Southwest, and to do this.
every true, earnest Patron should go to
work and raise a club for it,

1t is singular that Democrats in the dis
cussion just closed did not give more
prominence to the fact that the South has
plenary power to correct all fraud or vio-
lence in the election of any of its mem
hers, by unseating member elected by
by such violence or fraud, and either leav-
ing the seat vacant, or giving it to the
pegson unlawfully deprived. Under this
power the House can make full and
thorough investigation of every alleged
act of fraud or violence
This corrects the evil fully SO far as il
affects the Union, or the people outside
the distr ct in which the fraud or violence
occurs.

Editor Patron. On the 10th of April,
1870, the citizens of Gray's mill and vicin-

Peoples Farmer Club of twenty. They

Representative De La Matyr, the Green
back champion, introduced his Billion
Greenback bill at the request of another
at the time of the call on the States for
petitions and bills. He has since declared
in the House that he does not approve the
BILL We are glad of this, for his acts and
utterances up to the time he introduced
this wild scheme, had commended him to
our high esteem.

THE EXODUS.

The negro emigration to Kansas contin-
ues. Numbers are also trying to return,
but they are destitute, and the Aid Socie-
ties will give them no assistance Those
corralled at Wyandotte have all been re-
moved, except about one hundred who
are too sick for removal. About ten per
cent. have died. The Mayor of Wyan-
dottee wants the negroes of the South to
know that there are other parts Of Kan
sas where the opening for immigrants is
far better than in the Wyandotte country.
The colored relief committee at St.
Louis has split into two rival factions,
which accuse each other of all sorts of
rascality. 1t is charged that the old COM
mittee used $500 out of $1,000 received,
and expended only $500 to aid immigrants
A great aid meeting was held in New
York last week. Speeches were made by
Parsons Newman and Garnet, Thurlow
Weed, and others, and letters read from
Phillips and Garrison. All seemed more
intent on cursing Southern white men and
kindling the fires of hate, than on giving
aid to negro emigrants.

Our correspondent, Col. Brame, thinks
that farmers should stop voting for pro-
fessional politicians and tricksters, whether
nominated or not. And he is right. BY
the way, there is strong movement of
this kind in this county, and we are of the
opinion that it will spread all over the

The splendid letter of Col. George w.
Brame, of West Point Miss, which we
print in another column, should be read in
every Subordinate Grange in the South
west. The patriotic sentiments of this
noble Southron and earnest Patron, which
are so forcibly and eloquently expressed,
will touch a responsive chord in the breast
of every true Patron in the land.

vored by a visit from the able, eloquent
and jealous Lecturer of the State Grange,

We take pleasure in reproducing the
complimentary notice of THE PATRON
from the Paris "North Texan''-one of
the few political papers that is always true
to the best interests of the people. Bro.
A. P. Boyd is not only an able and accom-
plshed Editor, but a first-class Publisher
also, and his opinion in matters pertaining
to the cart preservative" is always valua-

appreciated by the people of North Texas:

heading we have seen, representing un-
ion of the farmers of the country and the
workingmen of the towns, then picture
presenting the cotton field, from which
the laborers are passing with their baskets
of the fleecy staple to the factory while
there is the representation of Grange
hall and school room, cooperative store,
etc. THE PATRON is the organ of the
State Grange of Mississippi and is one of
the very best papers of the kind we ever
saw anywhere, edited by gentleman
whose every impulse is to do good to the
toiling masses, and who is honest in ev-
cry word he utters. This paper is largely
circulated in Texas and should be in the
house of all our farmers

The carrying of concealed weapons is
unquestionably great evil, that should be
suppressed; but the great number of per-
sons killed with guns and pocket knives,
shows that the curse which rests on the
land strikes its roots deeper than this nefa-
r.olls custom.

The Legislative, Executive, and Judi
cial Appropriation Bill, with the clauses
abolishing the juror test oath and the en-
ployment of deputy marshals, and cur
failing the powers of supervisors of cleo
tions, passed the House on Saturday by a
vote of 40 to 49, All the Greenbackers
present and not paired, except Kelley of
Pennsylvania and Barlow of Vermont,
voted for the bill. Before the bill was put
ON its passage, Weaver. Greenbacker,
moved to strike out the clauses relating to
supervisors and deputy marshals, but the
motion was negatived, ayes 123 noes 800
Ihe Greenbackers present generally vo-
ted tor Weaver's motion.
The debate on the bill in the Senate
will be protracted, and will be greatly in
fluenced and shaped by the action of Mr.
Hayes on the Army Appropriation Bill
In the meantime the House will doubt
less take the financial question in hand
and the probability is that the session will
continue till midsummer

priation BILL as it came from the House
passed the Senate by vote of 40 to IS

The Cincinnati Enquirer sent out a
corps of reporters to interview the Dem
ocrats of Ohio in regard to the State con-
vention, which will meet June 4th, their
choice for Governor, their views in regard
to the financial question, and in regard to
a coalition with the National Greenback-
ers. The reports Of the interviews cover
two of the mammoth pages of the Daily
Enquirer. From hasty scanning of
these reports we gather that Gov. Bishop
and Gen Rice are the favorite candidates
for Governor. Gen. Ward has many
friends, and but for his 'hard money
views, would have very many more.
The parties interviewed were all in fa-
vor of the free coinage of silver, and nearly
all in favor of substituting greenbacks for
National bank currency. A few favored
the abolition of the National banks with
out the substitution. About ten per cent
were "hard money men, and fully one
half wanted such a basis for the green
backs as would render them convertible
into specie at pleasure. A very few fa-
vored expansion 'greenbacks, and plen-
ty of them" About one-ffth wished to
ignore the financial question for the State
campaign. Some wanted to give John
Sherman's plan full, fair trial to see how
the thing works.
In regard to coalition, large majority,
including many Of the ''hard money men,
favored the nomination of Democrats who
would-or from their known financial
views should-be acceptable to the Ma
tional Greenbackers. About one fourth
and many of these were "hard money
men" also-favored a straight coalition
with fair division of the ticket if this
can be done without a sacrifice of essen
tial principles. A small number wanted
to have nothing to do with the Nationa
Grcenbackers, except to let them vote the
Democratic ticket, if they wish to.
Wherever these subjects were broached
Thurman was found to be the choice fol
President, and the attitude of the Demo
Gratis in Congress was approved.
The further progress. of the campaign
in Ohio will be watched with intense in
terest by the people of the whole Union
