STATE GRANGE OF ALABAMA.
MASTERS OFFICE,
SELMA, January 2Ist. 1850.

-
. 10 III lcns55 -,.soff the Order IN Aza-
ALBANIA. In assuming the duties and re-
sponsibilities devolving upon me as Mas
ter of the State Grange of Alabama,
find that am surrounded by embarrass-
ments and confronted with serious obsta-
cles; but feel that, with the aid of the
Subordinate Oranges throughout the
State, these difficulties can be overcome
and our Order made what it should be-
a power in the land
The first and most important object to
be attained is, the revival of the Order and
the restoring of confidence upon the part
of the Subordinate Oranges in the State
organization, and to this end l intend to
direct my most earnest efforts. Will you
give me your assistance and the active
cooperation of your Granges' While in
too many sections of our State the Order
is languishing and Subordinate Oranges
have become careless and Indifferent, yet
| am happy to say to you that there are
signs of vitality and evidences of improve
| ment which afford encouragement. There
are two facts in connection with our State
organization which are highly gratifying
| and should be known. WithinS the last
wear our dues to the National Grange
have been paid, and we are now clear
upon the National books Also: the ac-
ton taken at our last session in regard to
Oranges that had become delinquent in
the payment of their dues was judicious
in this-that all unpaid past dues of Gran
ges dormant for more than four quarters
are RENTED, and all such Oranges are
urged to re establish their connection and
communication with the State organiza.
| ton.
In conclusion, let me, as the representa-
tive of the State Grange, appeal to you
and your Oranges for evidences of your
determination to make our Order what
every true Patron desires it to be. AS
said before, with the active sympathy and
cooperation of the Subordinate Oranges
of the State, / am hopeful of infusing
new life and zeal into the Order, and Of
making it what an association of agricul
turists" should be. Without this support
I, as Master of the State Grange, an
powerless for good results. You will
please insist that your Secretary be
promptin making quarterly returns to the
Secretary of the State Grange. Also, give
me the name of some earnest, active Pa
tron in your respective counties whom
may appoint as County Deputy or Lectu
rer to assist in the Strengthening anC
building up the Grange in Alabama.
Fraternally, BEN. G. HARRIsoN, &

The remarkable success attending the
establishment of CO operative stores by
members of the Order in Texas, Louis
lana, Arkansas, Tennessee and this State,
ought to encourage members of theGrange
in every neighborhood throughout the
country to similar efforts. The Rochdale
system has been found practical for all
the purposes of cooperative effort,
whether for stores or manufacturing en-
terprlses, and the success attending these
cooperative enterprises has invariably
benefited the Grange. Hundreds of
Oranges that had fallen asleep have been
revived and become stronger than ever
when its members formed cooperative
association and put the system into prac-
teal operation. aa.z @sal III raaIle
AS THE PATRON is now getting an ex-
tensive circulation in Georgia, and but few
cooperative enterprises have been as yet
inaugurated in that State, we would urge
upon the leading members of the Grange
there to give the Rochdale system their
especial attention. They will find that
the establishment of a cooperative store
under Grange auspices will quicken in
terest in the Order. When the masses see
tangible results that are Immediately ben,
eficial to them flowing from the Grange,
they will be drawn to it, and give it their
support - - =. .-...--... 80. .--'.
The cooperative system has made rapid
progress in Texas. The distinguished
leaderlof the Order in that State, Worthy
Overseer Rose, by his great zeal and ac
tivity, has given it a wonderful impetus,
and it is destined to sweep over the. State
with the force of a7hurricane. But unlike
thewarl of the elements, it will leave no
ruin in its track, but will build up, and
educate and encourage the great toiling
masses upon whose shoulders fall SO heav-
lily the exactfons rd-burdens of the in
iquitous system of the merchants. 9

NEED OF GOVERNMENT CON
-s..'+ TROI

The following suggestive statement,
which we find in the editorial columns of
the Kansas Farmer" are directly to the
point:
"The railroads require the care of Ma
tional Government to protect the weak
from the strong, as well as the people to
protect them in their property. The strong
need the influence of Just laws to protect
them from rivals which are constant and
unceasing in their efforts to divert trade
from its natural and most direct course by
surreptitious schemes among agents, and
undertaking for freight and passengers.
This course has been the means which is
now resulting in what may properly be
called the railroad empire. With de.
partment of Government to overseer the
transportation of the country, compelling
true reports to be made of all business.
with schedule of rates adjusted on the
basis of the business done by the road, re-
stricting the tots to what would earn a
fair and steady profit on the money in
vested, would make American railroad
property the best and safest investment
in the world. Stock that would pay six
per cent. clear OF all taxes and that was
known to be protected by the strong arm
of government from being plundered by
bulls and bears on change would prove
the most desirable of properties. On such
a basis as this the people of this country
will be compelled, in elfprotection, to
establish transportation business. 1t is a
business which the public have greater
property interest in than the Hypothetical
owners of the roads. The real owners do
not and cannot control the roads. but their
agents, hence the greater necessity that
Government should interfere in behalf of
justice and equality to all" aea

THE GRANGE OUTLOOK.

The Grange is gathering strength dally
all over the country. In the South
pecially this improvement is steady and
decided, there. being only two States
!. Alabama and Louisiana-where the Or
der is standing still. In North Carolina
it's gaining rapidly. The Roanoke Pa
trou, which was adopted as the official
journal by the State Grange at its recent
session, boasts that in one populous dis
trict, embracing several counties, almost
every farmer has joined the Grange, and
the meetings of the District Grange are at
tended BY hundreds of delegates and Wis
itors from all parts of the district.
In Georgia the farmers are waking up,
and the leaders are re-engaging in the
work with all the ardor and enthusiasm
of the early days of the movement. Wor-
thy Master Eberhart, sends us a club of
subscribers from Athens, and adds, 'SThe
Order is reviving in this State and this
is the tenor of all the letters we are re-
ceiving from that great State.
Tn. Tennessee the prospect is exceed
ingly promising. Brother ]. K. Hancher,
Past Overseer of the State Grange, sends
us club from Sullivan county, and adds,
'sSome Subordinate Changes being
revived in this county. Mountain View
Grange, DR.. J. P. Rhea, Master, initiated
| fifteen members at the last meeting, and
received sixteen petitions for member
ship. Oak Hill Grange reorganized on
the 18th. %
I Worthy Overseer Rose, of the Texas
State Grange, the. able and patriotic lead
er of the Order in that great State is
always at work, and his work tells with
splendid effect. He writes under date of
the 25th: "The Order in Texas.is steadily
improving. With good crops, it will make
great progress this year. l attended

This Grange has new hall over their
cooperative store-the store is succeeding
finely. Riley Springs Grange also in this
county, is taking steps to start co-opera-
tive store s.a. aas .at. 5fz-
|. And this is the cheering intelligence
that now comes from all quarters and
which presages a general and glorious
revival Of the Order throughout the entire
country. 3. .1 s.u

cent session, voted resolution of thanks

his able and earnest support of the bin

Agriculture with representation in the

Concord Grange, Giddings

3 Concord Grange, Giddings, Lee coun-
ty Texas, is becoming one of the strong
est Oranges in that State. It has splendid
material-its Lecturer, Brother A. F.
league, is not only one of the staunchest
Patrons in the country, but one the best
work ers The members of this Grange
have a cooperative store at Giddings that
is doing an immense business,-and they
have recently organized company to es-
tablish a "new process" cotton factory.
THE PATRON has more subscribers in this
wide-awake, intelligent Grange than in
any other in Texas. Salado Grange, in
Bell county, will have to look to its laurels.
