HAPPY BILL.

SPLENDID, magnificent, superb, grand .
These are among the edjectives used by
every one who has seen, and attempts to
describe, the furniture put in position this
week in the Custom House. Collector
Bash deserves great credit for inducing
the Government to treat this collection

of desks aud drawers in which to preserve
official documents and blanks. The dis
tressed looking racks that had done duty so
long were thoroughly dried. and may be
used to advantage for kindling wood
The new furniture consists OF two large
book cases, 8 #. high and #. wide. con-
tanning "a drawers; then there are three
six-ioot cases fitted under the counter and
they contain LOG drawers-l30 in all-tor

these, there Is black walnut cabinet

The chinch bug has been depre-
dating on our corn and small grain,
injuring it badly. Corn on hard
land suffered worse than on sandy
land. The prospect for good
corn crop very slim. Cotton is not
doing well; weather is rather too
cool for cotton.
Bro. Worthington, | suppose you
would like to know how our
Grange is getting along. At the
last meeting of Wards Prairie
Grange five members took the two
first degrees. We had nice time
and very good attendance; in fact,

Order than anything else; | mean,
of course, the Grange papers.

paper, and the articles are well

at Atlanta, Ga. 1t is, too, a nice
paper Both of these papers can
tell farmers how to raise more cot

not tell the farmers who gets the

the above. l want a paper like

Do we support our Grange papers as they
sho ulf be? Any man Of half sense knows
that there is power in the press. The railroad
men understand this matter, hence the vast
amount Of money they invest in that direc-
ton. Now the railroad power is not only
moulding public opinion through the press,
but they are to a very great extent making
the laws in their own interest What is our
duty in view of this condition of things these
facts? I say, support your Grange papers
with your whole might! Every member
should tax. one or more Grange papers, read
them, post themselves, write for them, can
vass for them, in order that their teachings
may be spread far and wide, and also get
your neighbors outside Of the Grange to take
them. 1t will pay--railroad men think so.
Do you want better and stronger proof than
they have given2 Can II farmer possibly
make better investment in any other way?
We think not. - Farmers Friend.

but always standing firmly by the
right. Who can but admire a man
or a woman whose fidelity to a
cause can not be shaken? Then
let us. as Patrons, be noted for our
fidelity, because it is trust, conf
dence, fidelity, that will make US
strong and finally give US victory.
Let us practice the principles
taught US by the Grange and we
shall surely develop higher man
hood and womanhood among our
selves. Let us work for the Grange
by precept and example inside and
outside the gate, knowing that the
more we do for it the more il will
do for us. Let us work in faith,
work in hope, work in charity with
fidelity and we will realize in the
near future our brightest anticipa-
ton of the success and perpetuity
of the Grange.

The CrOpN.

The present promises to be the
best crop year since 1870. The
wheat and oat crops in all sections
of the Union have been unprece-
dentedly good in quality and the
yield immense. The corn crop also
promises well, but the cotton is
backward, having been seriously
injured by the cool nights of May
and June, but fair crop will be
grown. though much smaller than
that of last year, if the present
favorable weather continues and
the farmers adopt timely measures
to prevent injury by the worms.
The fruit crops, especially peaches,
are unusually promising. Take it
all in all, the farmers have bright
future ahead of them, and to realize

contingency, after worming along
for years, and costing the State
thousands of dollars, he is either
cleared or sent to the penitentiary
for few years, instead of having
been hung within a week after the
murder as he should have been.
We need a golden mean between
the Lynchers and the Lawyers.
Charlemagne was very good in
his place and so were Sir Matthew
Hale and many who wore the judi
cial ermine with honor-but what
are they to us? What are their
opinions to us? Any we'll read boy
of eighteen years OF age in New
/ York or Cincinnati knows more
than any of them ever knew.
Herein is the fault of the law, as
administer ed to-day. Its progress
sion, if it has any, is at best sort
of boomerang motion. 1t looks back
ward, not forward, and demands
that the most enlightened period of
the worlds history be governed
by precedents drawn from the mid
die ages.
Shall such abuses ever be cor
rected?
Certainly not, while lawyers g

halls of Congress.

he ia taxed with commissions and
other incidental charges on twenty
FIVE pounds extra upon every pale
sold. Again, should bale, fairly
packed and otherwise in good mer-
charitable order, happen to become
dampened by rain, or be soiled ex
formally with mud or dirt in the
handling while in transit from the
gin to market, the rule of subtrac-
ton is invariably applied to it by
the broker, and the remainder, be
it much or little, is all that is ac-
counted for. IF two remnants OF
cotton as circumstances often render
necessary, the one good, the other
: inferior, are put in the same bale,
cash kind to itself on opposite edges
of the package, the bad sample sells
the bale, although it may amount
to only a small fraction of the bulk.
These rules arc arbitrarily imposed
on cotton and despotically enforced
against the planter by tho Trade,
and the producer is permitted TO
have no voice or vote in their
formation. When they work harsh
w and sometimes disastrously
against his interest (and they are
always inimical thereto) his OBJ
IectiOns are overruled, and his most
solemn protests are treated with
clever Indifference. 1t may be in
sisted that the commission mer-
chant, to whom his cotton is con-
signed for sale, is his agent and
legal representative, but however
this may be, nominally, | am de-
cidedly of the opinion from my
knowledge of the practical work
ings of the system, that no such
close or intimate relationship exists
between them. The merchant gets
his p per cent. commission on
gross amount of sales and the SAM
Piles taken from the planters cot
ton, which annually aggregate a
city crop, for New Orleans, of from
q 900 to 10000 bales, and in the
United States a total of between
five and six times that number,
worth from Sc, 100000 to $4,000, 600.
Selling his cotton according to the
arbitrary rules of the Trade, and
furnishing supplies, not on a credit
basis as heretofore, realizing there
on current commissions, is about
all there is embraced in the rela-
tiOnship that now exists between
the cotton planter and the commits
sion merchant.
For the privilege of buying his
cotton, through the we'll paid
agency of the commission mer-
chant, the planter is compelled, in
violation of every principle of right
and justice recognized among civ
ilized communities, to pay the
broker-the buyers agents.
stranger to the planter, ! of one per
cent brokerage on amount of sales.
To say nothing of excuses in the
storage and weighage, and steal
age committed in the handling, the
hardships and the burdens of the
Trade are all upon the shoulders Of
the planter, which, in all consci
ence, are sufficiently heavy for him
to carry, without the addition to
accumulated injuries the gross in
suit of a charge Of being dishonest
to the extent Of wiIfully and fraud
ulentlv adultcrating the only staple
crop on which he is dependent for
an honest living.

The following call for a National
Arbitration Convention is to give
form to the peace Policy''T Or
rather, War-avoiding Policy, re-
commended by our late an / lamen
ted President Garfield; and will be
heartily endorsed by every peace
loving citizen, and especially by
those who have chairs made va
cant by our own civil war:
The National Arbitration League OF
the United States of America, being pro-
foundly impressed with the vital impor-
lance of, and absolute necessity for, an
international Court of Arbitration; and
believing that the Congress Of the Ameri-
can nations, as proposed by our late
President, James. A. Garfield, and the
invitations prepared by ex- Secretary of
State, James G.. Blaine, and sent to the
governments by President Arthur. as
well as the larger proposition to include
all the nations of the world. as said to be
contemplated by the latter, are move
ments in that direction, and deserve the
appreciation and support of the American
people: Therefore,
The National Arbitration League
hereby propose a Convention to be held
in Washington, ID. c.. on the goth and
3Ist of May, 1882, for the purpose of dis =
cussing the general subject of arbitration
and TO emphasize the view of the people
of this country who believe in its princi-
piles, and desire them to take form and
character in an International Court of
Arbitration.
A cordial invitation is extended to all
peace societies and religious organizations
to send delegates; and all persons not so
connected, who favor the settlement of
difficulties, disputes, and claims between
nations by the pacific means of arbitra-
ton, are also invited.
Eminent and able speakers will address
the Convention.

Farmers should read and think more and
work less. Builders and employees in the
cities work but ten hours day and earn more
than the farmers and their hands who work
from fourteen to sixteen hours daily. And
the mechanics declare that they are not going
to work more than eight hours a day by
and by.
