THE BANKING MONSTER

The danger of the banking system to
the welfare and prosperity of society is
truthfully set forth by that eminent Eng
fish writer, Jonathan Duncan, where,
speaking Of the evil effects of the bank of
England, he says:
GA monstrous monied power had arisen
on which all industry was dependent.
The STATE having abdicated its functions,
transferred the monetary breyoeative of
the crozvn TO a handful of its subjects, who
possessing the instrument of exchange,
controlled cvery market, now exalting, now
depressing, encouraging enterprise by low
discounts, them hurting it to the ground
by high discounts, introducing uncertainty
into every transaction that ranged over
any heightened period, and Turing the
inexperienced to destruction by tempting
them to borrow, then compelling them to
pay before their most legitimate transac-
tons could be matured
"Wheu a government DELEGATES THAT
POWER, or PERMITS ITS EXERCISE, it be-
comes The most cruel obbressor Of the beo-
PIE"

ADVICE TO FARMERS.

The farmers of this country have much
to learn yet with regard to sheep husband
ry. They are too independent in then
ways, and they understand more of Theory
than they do of practice. If our farmers
would but place good flock of sheep on
their farms, and sow nice sweet grasses
they would soon discover there would DC
no necessity to send a thousand miles away
for guano or any other manure to ennGn
the soil. Instead of hampering the peopF
with obnoxious tariff laws, if the manufac'
turers of America would only offer purse
of two hundred thousand or quarter mn
lion dollars as premiums for improving tH'
various breeds of sheep, and growing III.
creased quantities of wool, we need ho'

loads of wool every week, for by SO doins
they would create rivalry among farne.'
in sheep husbandry that would be ID
tional blessing to the whole country. Ip
raw material used in the production y
woolens will cost the manufactures y
America this year twenty million ooi' a.
above the cost of the material used III y.

ton of a dormant Grange Stimulates the
inactive members to renewed exertions.
O. Lecturers The importance of lee
lures, both public and private, is now so
well understood by all that it is not neces-
sary more than to anude to it here, but
even a church could not exist without its
preachers, or any cause prosper without
its advocates SO the lecturer generally has
an influence for good. Pomona Oranges,
in many counties, arrange for visits by
lecturers to those parts of their jurisdiction
where enlightenment or revival tinter
est are needed.
10. Grange papers, as means or edus
cation, prevention and cure for dormant
Grange, these are among the most vaiua-
bic. A dormant Grange where dozen OF
more Grange papers are read, is among
the things that might almost be called inn
possible. Encourage their circulation by
all proper means, and good will result.
II. Thus we find that we must first or
ganize, then educate, and last and most
| important of all, every member OF this
Order must be taught TO 1c0rk, to put into
practice the lessons learned; success viii
never come without it. Our members
must be taught the zndividaaI rcSPonSf-

! but mark out the way, devise the plans
and unite the individual efforts of oul
| members, and thus through the united eff:
forts OF individuals, property organized
1 and educated, we can advance the grea
work which we have undertaken to do
Jbenefting the Individual, the state and the
nation.
These few thoughts and suggestions tht
committee would offer with the hope tina
they may assist at least in reviving a few
of our dormant Oranges.

THE GRANGE IN ALABAMA.
The farmers of this great State shoald
rally to their organization, and make 1t
what it is rapidly becoming in other
States, controlling power in their pub
lie and business affairs. Their State
Grange is now in the hands of able, faith
fnl and practical men, who have shown
their faith by their works. These officials
are ready to engage actively in the work
of re- orgauization, and it only remains for
the Subordinate Oranges to respond
promptly and earnestly to their efforts
to secure complete revival. We be-
lieve that if the farmers of Alabama
who are, or were once members of the
Order. were fully informed of the work
and progress of the Grange in other
States, they would renew their allegiance,
and in a little while restore every Subor-
dinate Grange to life and activity. The
farmers need this organization; the mo1e
intelligent and patriotic among them know
that without it the condition of the mass
es is utterly hopeless. We printed in &
recent issue of THE PATRON the stirring
address of the newly elected Master Of
the State Grange, Brother Ben. &. Harri.
son, and the letter of Worthy Secretary
McCurdy, in which the causes of the de-
cadence Of the Grange in that State were
fully and frankly detailed. We have since
receiy ed a cheering letter from the for
mer in which he writes.
"Thc Grange in our State is looking up
Nearly every day ] receive letters of en-
enlargement. Dormant Oranges are re
viving, and the Grange prospect in Ala
bama looks bright and cheerful. [ thanh
you for the tender of THE PATRON TO-

blows that you have struck for the Grange
interest throughout the land
We now hope to have the cause in Ala
bama fully represented in our columns.

HANCOK's LETTER-At the earnest re-
quest of many readers, we reprint
the admirable letter of General Han
cock, with large extra edition, to sup
ply the general demand. 1t is a docu-
ment which cannot be too much studied
or too well learned by the people. As
a state paper it will rank with Washing-
toms Farewell Address, and as manual
of Democratic principles it has no super.
ior. 1t reflects brighter and more last
ing fame upon its author than his unex-
celled military achievements.

The boys respectfully thank

got out Of sight, jumped the
fence and were soon shaking

was easy, but the opening OF
the chestnut burrs was more
difficult and unpleasant. Al
last the boys had a splendid pike
of handsome, brown nuts OH. the
ground, and they prepared to
put them in the bags they
brought with them.
