| They deserve success, and trust will re-
ceive the supper: of The wool growers OF
Missouri.
He Was followed by the secretary, with
tn. 70 Living address upon
| ORGANIZATION.
i wish to urge the recess ty of organiz-
ing. Outside the ranks of wool grower.,
O 2 n:z, tions of ell kinds, and for the
accomplishment OF all manner of objects,
are the rule. fInter dependence is one O..
those delightful necessities imposed on
IN ST creatures by tie wise arch trct of US
ali, IS shown in the gregarious practices OF
nearly every living thing. This disp1si-
ton To oongIesste Is so nearly universal
that the exceptions are hard TO fni. We
see III al IS IS Of creatures in II cks and
herds. Selfpre>ervition and socisl enjoy
ment are the forces which imre' TO this.
Creatures SD insignificant in size ss to
exist unnUticei acquire great importance
when well deve oped as TO numb, rs and
we'll grouped aud organized for action.
The sheep man will recognize and admit
the furce of this IL the acarus owls or scab
u te is ciie1 in point. He is uus en- but
he mak,s his pres .nce felt. Fishes, insects,
birds, quadrupeds ard men all act In
grouIs on occasion, men always with an
o iect that is defined and that can be stat
ell in words. We have not tn. lit.rstu-e
OF other creatures, but how can We avoid
the Conclusion that their purp ses ami
pleasures ar. as we'll de6ned as OnIs?
WE oRGANIZE
] FOR The obtsinment o. dIHere1t objects
Tor lovernm=n', which ST ,ndS as our grand
est, nrosdrst, most cJmprshe Sive organiZa-
ton undr the name of natIOIs; for Com
MUM Y OF worship, givirg Us our church .
Tor charitable purpose, giving Us oar
| ICdg S; for business, giving us our trades
unI' rs, associations aud the Ike for
social obj c:s. giving us our clubs. etc, ETC.
In ali trades and Of, men act In
grJups to do what would be diff ult or i'm
pos IDLE to them individually. This holds
20 ID from the highest TO the lose,t Tie
crowned he Ids of the old world are no
better organ zed than the rag picker,
at tie dumps of Paris and Lon Ion. The
American bod carriers organized last fall
the cooks OF Kansas Ci.y rg,niz.d last
month the bootblacks OF Sedalia are thor
o1ghly organized and they have things as
they W mt them. We complsin because
the freight on sheep is 10 cents per cwt |
more than on cattle aud 20 cents more than |
on hogs, aud because dressed mutton is |
charged 20 cents PR cwt. more than dress |
ed b,ef. We must charge i, to the pool. |
The org inization this poss;bl. is riainIy |
admirable even in oppression, but it has no |
advantage In compl, t-ness over the org nj
z .tiOn tnat last winter deprived the Mis- |
souri Pacific system, ext-nding over 5000 |
miles, of every IN IN, snd fore babe the NOV |
ing of 4 car In resistance of a reduction in |
wages Of 10 per GEN.. The resistance va.
usc full. What would have Ell the con-
sequence o compile removal of every |
man
ENGAGED IN THIS STRIKE
and all his belongings? Simply the ne
C, ssity OF Transporting new msn to fill the |
vac hed plsc 5, reqnlring a few days at
most, W thout loss vi property to the state |
or Gininution of pr Jducls anywhere. To /
rem We from Missouri her sh, pherds and |
heir property would irhict on her a dam
age grea er than tina, doue By the rlliou,
that generation would scarcely have pow
er TO repsir. Close, compact organ;za
and &C ion 10 one point has never failed TO
secure % the distillers and brewers the leg
islstiJn they have nt eded, though their in
T. Tests run counter TO those of the nation.
In numbers what are they .? By the same
means a few wooden manufacturers have
BIN able to dictate TO Us In about ali
hi gs. The tobacco men have the order
ing OF their own destiny. For a C injury
AID on all hands We have had those exam
pies. and on US IN Y have b,en wasted.
We lee national legislation. We see
fsw scjres oil men get what they want while
We In millions meekly stand by longing.
We need ststs legisla ton to protect US
against dogs, scab. To- rot, etc. and though
W. are 81, 600 strong in Missouri, We can
set no hirg from lack Of unity of action
and inability TO present our case. This or
ganiz stioI has for i $ objects the advance
ment of the gener Il Interests OF wool grow
eIs; the proiectt. OF the wool groEers'
in;eIesis in legislative mat ers; the pur-
o OF more thor. ughly extending to the |
W. oil grower general information upol the |
state U. the market on wool, mutton and
STOCK sheep at their respective seasons OF
SAL.
Now, with these avowed and laudable
objects, viii our grave necess ties, and the
possibilities oar relief within our easy
reach, will some one here
FURNISH Me THE PROPER WORD
by which to character. the $500 sheep
IN IN Mi s1uri who, during al existence
of four years have furnished to this sssO-
citation $50 members only?
/ wish to show difference. During 1884
our flock, fell off 10 per cent. In numb-Ts,
snd ~ y mt. in value, or to.al shrink
age o: 2S p r cent In national convention
and state convent n We say that proper
tariff ie- islatiOn wonld have made tnis
shrinkage impossible, and if now restored
our property would return 10 us. Vel whu
have We done 10 secure the ueeded relief?
During the winter pleuro- pneum Jnil made
its apTea: ance in Missouri. Having no
laws be ring on cattle iniec ions the cattle
men dem .nded OF the governor that he call
the legs ure in extra session that they
might be afforded protection. The COVER
nor refused 10 comply with this demand.
