D. Wallace, Lecturer of this Dis

The Power of Organization.

Poverty is a fact. Wealth is a
fact. These facts are factors that
go to make life enjoyable or endura-
BILE. With advancing civilization
the pauper and the millionaire go
hand in hand. The wage labor
class support both: the pauper
through taxes, the millionaire
through tithes.
The labor movement is a war
against poverty. 1t is true leveler.
1t levels up. The power Of organi
cation is beginning to draw on the
betrayed and robbed masses. The
proletariat see the glimmer of a
light that is destined to grow
brighter and brighter, leeding them
from bondage to freedom.
The trades union is the school of
the mechanic in the science of gov
eminent, fitting him for leadership
in the army of unskilled labor. The
Trades Council is a consultation OF
leaders preparatory to an onslaught
against-what? Not against CAPT
tai but against poverty.
The science of organization is the
science of the power of many. The
poor mans penny can be made to
go farther than a rich mans dollar
Many an organization b., failed,
but each failure brings e nearer
success. Experience is costly, but
after all it pays.
Out of the trades unions of Ger.
many has grown the Social Demo
cratic party. Out of the trades un-
ions of America the party of the flu
ture is being nursed and fostered,
preparatory to the coming conflict
between the many poor and the rich
monop olists.

way. But when all was gloom,
olooml the members of these two
Oranges gathered around their al
tars and with their glorious primer
pies clutched in the left hand, the
right hand upon the heart pledged
themselves, that, if the Order mHSt
die and sink as star to rise no
more. its last feeble ray should be
famed upon tie affairs in Clarke
County. With Unity in essentials
in September last they purchased
store house and lot in the village OF
Choctaw Corner, and on the hrst
day of October opened what IS
known throughout this portion OF
the vineyard as the Grange Store

RoCHDALE OPERATIVE PLAN,
in three months thereafter the Dl-
rectors met ana upon examination
of the books found that the capital
had been turned over three and one
half times, had been doubled in
value, and that they could pa .
per cent on the capital, declare IS
per cent. dividends on the trade and
have 20 per cent. communicative fund
Co operation is no longer an ex-
pertinent here but tried reality.
Choctaw Corner Grange, seeing
that the Order was not dead but de-
termined to accomplish good for the
farmers, reorganized and has gone
TO work with zeal that will ensure
success and render valiant service
in the onward move. Other Oranges
are speaking of brushing the dus
from their affairs, and ere the yea
of 1881 closes the Order in Clarke
county will equal that of any othe
county in the State.
Grange news is encouraging.
The Alabama State Grange ha
paid up its entire Indebtedness t.
the National Grange, and has some
funds in the Treasury.
The report for the Quarter, end
ing March 81, was the largest TO
the same length of time.
Several Oranges have reorgan
lied this year, and nearly ever.

Some of the cautious and more
thoughtful wanted to Introduce the
Roehdale system, but were over
ruled by sharpers who had crePt

ing but Joint Observation-Disclosures to
make merchandise OF the Grange,
so we started store and tannery,
both of which soon failed. We
then resorted to the agency system,
with but little better success; and
outsiders said the Grange was dead,
and insiders became discouraged
and fell asleep; only one organiza-
ton remaining invulnerable. Unity
Grange kept her armor on, waiting,
and watching an opportunity to
strike an effective blow. Last
October she opened CO operative
store in the city of Mineola, which
is firmly established and doing a
handsome business. The Grange

Wilkinson Comfy.

Editor Patron. Captain Put
Darden has just passed through
Wilkinson county, on his lectur
ing tour. To say that he
made an impression that will last
is to put it tamely. AS he promised
us last winter, he has taken an ag
gressive course. He is fearless
champion and carries every thing
before him, corrects erroneous inn
pressions, removing unjust pre-
JUDGES, and opening wide the eyes
of those who are fortunate enough
to hear him. He has given the
Grange a boom in this county,
boom from which | think there will
be no reaction, and Deputy Lee
turers can not do better thing than
to get their people out to hear him.
If he fails to convince even the most
obdurate | am mistaken. Don't be
afraid he will disappoint you. Rain
or shine have an audience on hand,
for you may rest assured the speaker
will be there, unless the hand of
Providence interposes. In the
whole time he has been lecturing
he has failed to meet but one APP
pointment, and the audience failed
TO get there, too, on account of high
waters Our Worthy Master is do
ing noble and a glorious work
and the Oranges must stand by him
in it. The partizan press will prob
hi attach h, tl,o,rrl, Io
no war against any legitimate pro-
| fession-then the Oranges must de-
fend him. He has enough to do to
go ahead at his work He can not
afford to turn aside to kick every
| puny little ''fice" that barks at him;
the Oranges must attend to them
And there is one other point
must call attention to. We have not
paid our Worthy Master even one
fourth the amount we promised him.
| Now, Patrons, this won't do. This
man can't afford to do this work for
nothing. He has wife and children
dependent upon his exertions for a
living, and he is working for as,
depending on our promise. Come,
Patrons, let it not be said, to our
shame, that we drove this noble
worker from the field by starvation.
Some pretend to think he gets big
salary, when, the truth is, he barely
gets enough to cover expenses.
| Now, who of us is willing to work
for that? Patrons, bring this thing
home to yourselves and do your
duty by this man, who is working
so effectively for us and ours. God
speed him in his noble work.

The following from the Newark
Doily Advertiser has some wholesome
truths which it would be well for all
classes of citizens to ponder:
Il don't pay to have fifty working
neii poor aid ragged IN order to have
one saloon-keeper dressed in broadcloth
and flush of money.
1t don't pay to have these fifty work
Inc men live on bone-soup and halt ra-
tions. in order that the saloon-keeper
flourish on roast turkey and champagne.
1t don't pay to have the mothers and
children of twenty families dressed III
rags and starved into the semblance OF
emaciated scarecrows and living IN
novels. in order that the saloon-keeper's
wife may dress in satin, and her chill
dren grow fat and hearty. and live IN a
bay window parlor.
1t don't pay to have one citizen in
the county Jail because another citizen
sold him liquor.
1t don't pay to have ten smart, active
and intelligent boys transformed into
hoodlums and thieves, to enable one
man to lead an easy life by selling the
liquor.
1t don't pay to give one man, for SO
quarter, license to sell liquor, and
then spend $40, 900 on the trial of Tim
Laughlin for buying that liquor and
then committing murder under its i'll.
| fuence.
1t don't pay to have one thousand
homes blasted, ruined, defled, and
turned into bells of disorder and mis-
cry, in order that one wholesale liquor
dealer may amass large fortune.
1t don't pay to keep six thousand
men in the penitentiaries and hospitals
and thousands in the lunatic asylums
at the expense of the honest, industrl
Gus taxpayers, in order that few ricf
capitalists may grow richer by the
manufacture of whisky.
1t never pays to do wrong; your sir
will find you out; whether others fine
it out or not, the sin knows where you
are and will always keep you posted o
the faet-it don't pay.
A saloon-keeper sold drinking maj
one pint of new rum, making ffteel
cents clear profit. The man, under tn,
influence of that pint Of rum, killed hi
son-in-law; and his apprehension, con
finement in Jail, execution, ETC., cos
the country more than one thousanC
dollars-which temperate men had t.
earn by the sweat Of their brows. |
don't pay.
The loss sustained by society, moral,
and financially. the sorrow and suffer
ing, the misery and restitution pro
duced and augmented, and what is in
finitely greater consideration than al
else, the destruction of soul and body
the inevitable results of using or trat
ficing in Intoxicating liquors-these al
attest the truthfulness of the verdict
it don't pay.

necessary to secure it. He works on
the line of progressive evolution,
and organizes new forms to sub

served their purpose, or been found
wanting. He uses every movement
and ali material as a means to an
end, the upbuilding of a large en-
terprise, the raising of humanity to
higher level of life. His means
should be adequate to the work un-
