Zone dollar will buy as much as two
would ten years ago" Will it? Then go
and offer your creditor fifty dollars for
that hundred dollar note of yours and I'M
deceive yourself, or try to buy 81 900 u.
S. bond with $500. If the dollar will buy
more, don't it cost more TO get it? Who
is the gamer but the creditor and the man
who lives on fixed salary? If it will buy
more goods, it will buy more labor. You
must work twice as long to get it, and if
it will buy twice as much, you are still
the losers by eating twice as much, and
wearing your clothes and tools twice as
much. Now, laboring men. don't you
see where you have gained by this re-
sumption contraction squeeze?

THE BRIGHT SIDE.

There's many a rest in the road of life,
If we only would stop to take it,
And many tone from the better land
If the querulous heart would wake il!
To the sunny soul that is full of hope
And whose beautiful trust ne'er iaileth.
The grass is green and the flowers are bri. hi
Though the wintry storm prevalent!
Better to hope, though the clouds hang low,
And to keep the eye still lifted:
For the sweet blue sky will soon peep through
When he.ominous clouds are rifted!
There was never night without day,
Or an evening without morning;
And the darkest hour as the proverb goes.
Is the hour before the dawning!

LONDON, Oct. 2.o-The news of the al
legged wonderful revival of business and
unusual ease of the money markets in the
United States, is discounted here to a
wonderful extent While it is evident that
there has recently been lifting of the ter
rible pressure of hard times in America,
the ablest financiers in London predict
that the revival will be but temporary,
and that an inevitable reaction will soon
set in. They think, also, that the tempo
rary ease in money will cause recurrence
of the reckless mania for stock specula-
tons, and cause the formation of exten.
sive grain rings. English capitalists are
warned against trashy" American in
vestments.

The goods produced by the Georgia
cotton mills, and by the Mississippi mills
at Wesson, weigh more per yard than the
best Northern and Eastern goods, while
at the same time the commonest and
cheapest Of the latter are immeasurably
better, stronger and more durable than
English goods of like grade. The supe-
rIorIty is commencing to be acknowledged
by foreign consumers. The leading Amer
lean drill, the "Pepperell Dragon brands,
commands from one quarter to one half a
cent more than any on the wholesale trade
abroad. Until within three yeas, fine
brown cottons had not been exported.
Their expectation has proved successful,
and now very large quantities of the New
England article are sent to foreign trade.
The manufactures of the Centennial mills
have attained such popularity that they
are now known and highly priced all
over the commercial world.

COOPERATIVE ASSOCIA

NEW YORK, Oct. 2.-An association of
this city has purchased 1000 acres ofland
on Long Island, where its members in.
tend to erect factories and build homes on
a peculiar plan. Each member pays fifty
cents month, and when there is ST. 900 in
the treasury there is a drawing for that
amount. The iuck ky member is then oblig-
ca to use that money to build a house on
the land purchased. When his house is
hnished he must thereafter by small in
stallments restore the $1,000 advanced 20

George E. Morrow, who is associated

from Europe, where he is on visit of in

he can see little advantage to come from
additional importation. He considers our

be better adapted to American tastes and

The people of Ireland are becoming res
tive and refuse to pay the high rents de-
manded by the landlords. Three hundred
tenants at Tipperary have formally refus-
ed to pay more than a fair rent for their
farms, and threaten to raise disturbance
if an attempt is made to eject them. The
feeling thus showing itself in Ireland ex-
lists in England and Scotland. 1t is very
evident that the land question will soon
be the most prominent issue in the United
Kingdom.

OCTOBER WEATHER.

In this bright October weather,
When the leaves come rustling down
And the grass upon the heather
In the breeze waves sere and brown
Ula. am wondering whetheri
You are thinking, far away,
Of the days we spent together
When our lives were young and CAV.
Scattered DER the close-cropped pastures
Autumn flowers look to tie skies
Indian pinks, and golden asters,
Vervains blue as Ula's eyes.
In the slanting sunbeams mellow,
Glorious now the woods appear,
Where the scarlet leaves and yellow
Robe the fading dying year.
All! this sad October weather,
Floating clouds, and hazy skies,
Moaning winds, and dry brown heather
With my spirit harmonic.
Falling leaves-they are the sighted
Hopes, of being once part
And the cruel frost that blighted-
1t is Ula-cold Of heart

The New York Economist says: The
city is crowded with country merchants,
and the hotels, particularly below Thir
teenth street, are unable to meet the de-
mand upon them for rooms. With the
presence of these extra buyers added to
the usual floating population, the current
of trade moves swiftly, and places of
amusement and the city railroads, as well
as the hotels and jobbing houses, are shar
ing in the general prosperity that their
presence brings. 1t has been observed by
business men that this year in greater
degree than since 1867, the country mer-
chants are visiting the city to buy their
goods without the Intervention of the
commercial traveller, and from it they ar
que a general prosperity in all parts of the
United States, for their buyers come from
all sections of the country, and their orders
are for better and for a greater quantity
of goods than ever before. Speaking of
the kind of goods being bought, the head
of one of the largest jobbing- houses in
fabrics said: at is the experience of every
house in our line that better, finer and
really more expensive class of goods are
being bought now than ever before in the
history of the trade. Sales are larger and
collections were never easier to make. 1t
is time of unprecedented prosperity in
business"

FARMERS, DON'T SELL YOUR COT
TON SEED,

TON SEED.
We continue to urge the farmers of the Cotton
States not to sell their seed to the oil companies
at any price. 1t is the worst policy they pur-
sue. Every farmer should not only refuse to sell,
but he should buy the seed owned by his employees,
and every bushel for feed and fertilizing pur-
poses. At $40 ton, it is the cheapest and best
fertilizer in the world.
The oil companies combine to put down and
keep down the price to So and 81 per ton, which
is not onefourth of its real value Farmers should
combine to prevent its sale to the oil companies
under any circumstances.

NO SINGING.

A Grange meeting without any singing,
is like bread without butter or potatoes
without salt. 1t will pay any Grange to
go to some trouble, and even to some ex
pense to get in the habit of singing. Song
books, with notes, can be bought for 81.
or S., or S. per dozen, and it will not cost
the Grange a great deal to furnish one for
every member. Then few special meet
ings, held either at the Grange hall, if
there is an organ there, or at the residence
of some brother who has an organ, and
devoted entirely to the practice of singing,
will soon get the Grange started. After
that, one meeting every quarter might be
very proftably devoted expressly to sing
ing, with occasional brief recesses, to learn
new songs.
Train every member to sing. 1t doesn't
do person half as much good to merely
sit and listen to some one else sing, as it
doesIto take part. When all have learned
to open their mouths to sing, it will not
be SO difficult to get them to open their
mouths to speak Patron.
