representatives of the country which God
made should not be unfriendly to the CITY
which man has made, but possessing
peculiar interests and advantages, the
owners and cultivators of the soil of the
nation should have one common and
undivided interest for all the people, and
associate themselves toy 4ther that the
blessings of independence, liberty, law
and order, and the sovereignty of the
people may be preserved as the inalien-
able right of themselves and their chill
dren. Popular education is the hope of
this country. The church nestles in our
valleys and crowns our swelling hills, a
liberal and complete graded system of
instruction honors our cities and villages,
and the public school house stan0s on the
corner of the country road. The Amer
can town house exists and is the place
where local and national questions are
discussed, aud where the free ballot is
cast which determines great interests and
practically elects all of the rulers of this
republic. The Grange hall is erected in
the interests and for the elevation of the
American husbandman, aud is the patron
of broad and intelligent AZ riculture
which is the prime source of national
prosperity and happiness. Patrons,
attend to these great interests individually
and collectively, for they are the crown
ing gIo"ies of free aud Independent

There should be healthy and well
balanced proportion of population divid-
ed between agricultural and other indus
trial pursuits for national prosperity.
We find that Great Britain has in a pop
ulaion of 1000 only 40 engaged in agr-
culture to 545 engaged in other industries.
This disproportion in manv ways affects
agriculture injuriouslv. Italy shows a
different side, and for 626 engaged in az
rcultural pursuits, there are only 22S en-
gagged in other industrial vacations. Ag-
rculture is not profitable in that country.
In the United States we find 473 in every
thousand of its inhabitants engaged in
agriculture, and 244 persons employed in
factories. shops, mines, ETC.. and we are
occupying medium position. and in
this respect is a we'll balanced country.
There has been much complaint in
many of the States of the Union of unjust
burdens which rest upon agriculture on
account of the lack of Legislative and con
gressional action. We sympathize with
those who unjustly suffer, but it appears
to me that in our own State the farmers
have no reason for complaint. Our State
has made generous appropriations for
our Agricultural College, Board of 40
riculture, Agricultural Societies. Expert
mental Station, and has always given
such bounties and protection bv special
legislature as the interest of thes farmers
have demanded. AS long as our organiza-
ton continues as large and intelligent
and as well disciplined as now, there can
be no fear but that the State will listen
to every reasonable demand of agri.
culture. Our railroad companies have
been LIBERAL to the public. Our members
of Congress voted in favor of the oleo-
margarine bill. They have favored tax
ing spurious dairy compounds. They
have advocated the protection of our ayri-
cultural productions from foreign compe-
titon. 1t is the desire of the Patrons of
Husdandry that they should favor the
provisions of the Regain bill as far as il
is intended to regulate the rates of trans
portation in the interests of the great
public. 1t is the desire of our organic
alton that the provision of the Hatch bill
should become a law, which will give TO
the State and our Agricultural College
the benefits of an experimental station at
national expense, thus relieving us of the
burden of our present appropriation. 1t
is also our wish that the Commissioner of
Agriculture should be promoted and
recognized as member of the Cabinet
of tnePresident. To the end that the inter-
est of agriculture should receive all the
protection and aid it deserves from our
Congress and Legislature, we invite the
special consideration and influence of
the Patrons of Husbandrv of our State.
The farmers of Maine are personally in
terested in the immediate passage of the
"Hatch BILL" which will give to'our State
$4,000 annually from the National
Treasury for the maintenance of our agri-
cultural experimental station. | call

i,With Pistol and Knife.

About 10 O'Clock last night q pistol
shot rang out on Blum street, back of the
Menger hotel, and Officer Harris pro-
ceeding thither found that two oolored
youths, Tom Lee and Ed. Lott, barely
20 years OF age, had engaged In rather q
desperate fight in which Ed Lott was
stabbed twice in the left side below the
shoulder blade, and Tom Lee was shot
in the right leg just above the knee.
Both were arrested, Lott being found
at his home, where he skulked after the
shooting. They were brought to the
police station and each gave his own YER
sion of the shooting. Lott said they
were standing on the street and Lee be-
gan singing when he wanted to talk to
him, and because he told him not to
sing, because ii "insulted" him, drew
his pocket knife and began carving him
up for thanksgiving, and he shot him In
self-defense.
Tom Lee gave the clearest statement,
saying he was a stranger here, and both
were coming from the Macedonia Bsp-
fist church and had a quarrel about a
girl named Nettie Seal, which led to the
above scrimmage. They had had a
quarrel about the same girl last Sunday
night.
Both men are occupying cots In the
same room at public headquarters to-
day, being quite seriously wounded as
to lay them up for some days to come.
Lofts cuts seem more serious than Lees
gun shot wound with no bones broken.
Both have been charged with assault
with intent to Kill,

JEFFERSON, Tex, June %, 1886.
We often read OF strange condolences
and romantic incidents, but they are
/ generally located at uncertain distances,
thus depriying them Of the interest and
novelty attached to similar occurrences
that are under our immediate observa-
ton. The firm Of Jones, Edgeworth &
Sellers are engaged in the saw mill bus.
mess at Lodi, a station on the Texas and
Pacific railroad. nine miles north OF this
city. Z. A. Edgeworth. the hero of this
episode, Is member OF said firm
and has been a resident OF this vicin-
ity for many years. he is very highly
esteemed as an industrious, energetic
and worthy man. He has had long
struggle with adversely; but has sue
ceeded in accommodating competency.
Mr.. Edgeworth's parents separated for
some cause about 20 years ago; the
father retaining possession OF the child
rem. He taught them to believe that
their mother died soon after the separa-
tlon and they all received il as truth.
Her memory gradually drifted away in
the misty past and she was forgotten by
her loved ones, or ut least given up as
dead.
Mr.. Edgewood. the younger of
whom we are now writing, asCertains
by some means that he, as an heir to his
parents, had vested rights in some prop
erty situated near Waco and some city
property in San Antonio. Recently he
has been prosecuting his claim and few
days ago visited Dallas to confer with q
distant relative concerning his suit AZ
ter pleasant conversation with his kins-
woman, he inquired of her if she "knew
OF the whereabouts Of any OF the rela-
tives or any of the name," and was sur
prised when she answered that she
"knew of only one, and that was Aunt
Susan, who lived on --- street in
that city"
The son lost no time in calling on
Aunt Susan, and found it to be bis own
mother. The meeting can better be
imagined than described. How they
lived so long in the vicinity of each
other without recognizing each other is
the strangest part of it. Mrs. Edge
worth, as before stated, is a resident of
Dallas and Is highly esteemed. The in
come from the property she owns in the
city Is ample to supply all her wants.
