Gen. Garlbaldi lies day after day on
a small iron bed. in a simply furnished
room, looking on the sea. He wears
the round cap of his portraits and holds
a paper fan wherewith to drive away
the flies-strange and piteous occupa-
ton of once so doughty warrior. His
eyes are bright, his complexion fresh
and healthy, his hair white, his beard
pepper and salt. He is sadly paralyzed,
even his hands being stiff and contorted.

From the Master OF the Ar!<an-
SRS State Grange.

To Subordinate Oranges in ARKANSAS:
For the first time in five years the State
Grange of Arkansas was represented in
the National Grange, and |, as your chosen
representative, had the honor to represent
your interest there. How well it was done.
you can Judge; suffice il to say that did
my duty to the best of my ability.
MANY important measures were lnaugu-
rated and sent back for your consideration
that are too numerous to allude to now,
but in future | shall give you my views on
these all-important questions weekly IN
THE PATRON.
We are again in working order and In
good standing with the National Grange
and I ask you, shall we not continue the
good work of reviving and building up the
Grange and increasing its usefulness and
power for good to ourselves and to the
rising generations? feel that the response
is that we shall and must ucceed. In mex
weeks PATRON l will begin series of ar
ticles on these subjects.

REPORT OF COMMITTEE ON DORMANT
ORANGES.

ORANGES.
Worthy Most.r and Members Of
the National Grange: Your Com.
mittee on Dormant Oranges beg
leave to make the following report:
The subject is one of vital impor-
lance to the welfare of the Order,
and demand the serious and careful
attention Of this body.
1t will be remem bered that the
reports which have been presented
at this session of the National
Grange, bv the Masters Of the sew
eral State Oranges show the num-
Der of Dormant Oranges to be very
great, and admonish the mem bers
OF this body that something should
be done to strengthen our organi-
| cation.
In tn, opinion of your Commit
tee the remedy for the existing
state of affairs is not difficult to dis
cover, but just how the remedy may
be applied is the great question to
be solved.
| Education, as to the principles
the objects and the purposes OF the
organization, is the thing which
will revive dormant Oranges anC
give tenure to long existence.
The reports made to this body
by the Committee on the Good o
the Order and the Committee OIL
Resolutions have fully covered tn
ground and all that is 'necessar,
now to be done, is to put into prac
; tical operation the suggestion
made and the recommendation
adopted.
The impression has very exten
$ sively prevailed in some communi
ties that the Grange bad fulfille
. its mission, had finished its work
and hence there was no longer an
necessity for the organization.
c The impression isone which rest
on no sure foundation; but until

Ter by the living lecturer dormai

h;ned action and CO operative effort.
No greater mistake was eve,
made than when it was supposed
that the efforts of tho members 0,
this organ ization should be conflned
to tho narrow field of labor and ex
pertinent in agriculture. that wnen
we had reached that point at which
we had caused "two blades of grass
10 grow where but one grew De-
FORE our mission was accomplish
ed. our work completed.
Your committee recognize the
fact that this noble feature in prac'
tical agriculture, and would urge
all good Patrons to labor hard to
accomplish so desirable result.
But the purposes of our organiza-
ticn are higher and broader, grand
err and nober than this; for, while
thew include the improvement OF
The farm and tho development o.
agricultural pursuits, they also
reach up higher and stretch out
broader; for we labor for the wei
fare of our country and of mankind
for advancing the interests, eieva'

Resolutions were presented an
nouncing the deaths Of Past Master
w. II. Chambers, of Alabama, and
Worthy Master T. ]. Smith, OF
Georgia, which were followed by
appropriate and impressive cere-
monies. We have space for only
two of the eulogies that were deliv-
cred on the occasion:
Bro. Harrison, of Alabama, said:
Worthy Master and Members Of
the National Grange: | feel it would
be doing a great injustice to our
State and to the memory of our
lamented brother, w H. Chambers,
were I not 10 raise my voice and
tell of the great and noble traits
that so eminently fitted him for the
exalted position he held in our
country. He was no ordinary man.
His was no common life. In every
sphere, in every position, be was
the same upright, honest, patriotic
citizen. Love of country, love of
home, love of friends, ever had a
home in his manly breast, hence
the great interest manifested by
him in trying to build up the agri-
cultural class of our State. When
the war ended and our battle flags,
one at Appomattox, the other al
Greensboro, n. c., were furled, to
be nnfurled no more; when our
great armies were disbanded and
the soldiers, one dressed in blue, The
other in grey, went to their scvera
homes; when the rattle Of musket'
cannon and the clangor OF the sabre
were no longer heard, and in theil
stead were heard the ring of thu
, anvil and the happy song OF thu
busbandman. our departed AM
much loved brother went to worl
: with a zeal and an earnestness un
: exceIled by any one to build up i
? possible his shattered fortune an,
to reclaim his ruined and bleedin!

The ways of Prohibition in Kan

Our only brother, living at Wich-
tia, Kansas, writes: see that you
refer occasionally to Kansas in Our
Herald. You can say that the Pro-
hibition law is grand success here.
Last week we had eleven arrests
and eight convictions, costing three
flor the first offense) $IIo so each.
The brewery $3.50 (siace closed.
Besides these costs the lawyers fees
amounted to over 5000 for the brew
cry alone to pay, and then there are
two of the most prominent saloon
keepers in jail with heavy fines be-
sides. The violation of a constitu-
tional law finally wears them out
Wichita has been hard place to
fight, as it contained only one year
ago over 40 regularly licensed sa-
loons.
