The Democratic rev, luton in Dutchess is
repeated on almost as large a scale in Col
umbia county Ex-senator Benjamin Ray,
who has for years been the recognized leader
of the party in the county, came out again st
his party right after the passage of the Mills
bill and is now working as hard sgai st
Cleveland as he lshored for him in 1884
Mr. Ray is one of the oldest and best-known
politicians along the river. He represented
the III District of New York city in the
Legislature before the war. He moved TO
Hudson about thirty years ago. In 1871 he
WAS elected Assemblyman and re-elect,d
twice. He proved so strong, in fact, that
the Democrats ran him for Senator. He
was elected, serving two terms with distinc
ton. Mr. Ray modestly declares that he has
no pretension TO exercising any influence
beyond his own vote" but every sensible
man. Democrat or Republican, knows
that he will take scores of Demo
Gratis with him. A number, in fact,
have already followed his example,
including Alderman Madden. superintendent
of Hunts stove works; John Muldoon, an
engineer, and about sixty others who vot, d
for Cleveland in 1884. The Hudson Demo |
cratic Club can only be induced to indorse
Governor Hill. When asked Why it did not
ratify the nomination of Cleveland the lead |
ers replied that 1.-The club is not in politics |
this year"
One of the most important industries of |
Hudson is Edwin Greats knitting mill. Mr. |
Groat is a lifelong Democrat but he is out
against his party and will vote for Harrison
and Morton this fall and so will many of his
Democratic friends and acqualntances
When Mr.. Groat declared against Cleveland,
the Democratic papers had TO abandon their
usual assertion that il was another case OF
disappointed Office seeking. MIR. Groat has
held public office or evinced the slightes- in
clnation To do So Aware of this fact the
Administration organs tried a new tack
They declared that his action was simpl,
prompted by desire Ito cut down the wages
of his employees" This led Mr.. Groat to
state his reasons for changing his political
faith. As they are substantially the same a.
those set forth by other knit goods manufac-
turers in Cohoes, Schenectady, Amsterdam,
Little Falls and elsewhere, it may BE-
worth while to quote them. He says
believing that the reduction of 4S per
cent as recommended by the Mills
bill on low priced knit-goods, and
% l-2 per cent on higher priced goods, max
ing an average of 80 per cent reduction
has caused this stagnation to our business to
a great extent, and having reliable informa-

moral depravity by those who

THE INDIANS.

The fact that the Indians of this zee.
tion are probably the descendants Of a
race that has occupied the country for
ten or twenty thousand years is not in
teresting to the average politician. That
individual stands always "for the Old
Flag and an appropriation" The most
wonderful discovery that Cushing may
make in Arizona or New Mexico has to
the aforementioned person but Sigh. in
terest compared with the burning ques.
tion whether he can bamboozle his con.
stituents on the tariff issue. He does
not know, or docs not care. that the
whole advancement Of civilization has
been made through the arts and sciences
and that the discovery OF facts and sci
entifc principles are the very founda-
ton Of urt end science. and that absolute
learning is fountain from which comes
perpetual food of light to make men
better and happier. He looks upon the
excavations in the Zuni cities as the non.

sery Of the present. We can excuse him
for this view Of the matter only on his
old familiar reason that there i. mo nu.
triment in it." But there is a question
OF justice and humanity arising here con.
corning the living aborigines who ought
to DO on reservations and are not. There
must be all told many hundred Piutes
and Shoshones in the eastern portion Of
the state Of whom nearly all live idle
shiftless lives begging for food and spend.
ing their small earnings in vice. When
one Of them suffers an accident, as did
the poor fellow on last Saturday night
heis thrown upon the local municipal
authorities for medical aid and support.
This is all wrong. If these Indians be.
long to reservation they should be
taken to it at once, and il they do not
belong to one the government seriously
fails in its duty to them and to the
whites also.

HIS FIRST LETTER.
SAMPSON Co., Aug. 2, 1888.

g.. SAMPSON Co., Aug. z, 1888.
Col. L. L. PoLK-Dear Brother =
AS I have been appointed Correspond
ing Secretary for our Alliance, I will
attempt to write few lines to your
valuable paper South River ALI
ance, No. S3l, was organized the 23d
day of May, with 0 charter mem mbers;
we now number 20, with three more
to initiate at our next meeting, with
some other applications. We are
comparatively weak yet, but we are
in earnest. I want to say to the
brethren of the Alliance all over the
State, that it is source of real enjoy
ment to me to read their letters in the
columns of The PROGRESSIVE FARMER
[ am delighted to see the interest that is
manifested with reference to our State
Business Agency Fund, which [ con-
slider the basis upon which depends
the success of the agricultural interests
of our grand old State. Brethren, let
us persevere and stand by the prin-
ciples of. our order at whatever cost,
and success is sure.
Crops in this section have suffered
severely by the long continued drouth.
We have not had rain enough to wet
the ground thoroughly since the heavy
rains the first of June; though we
have had light rains every week or
two, and we hope to make enough to
sustain life. But [ must stop, as I am
uneducated and this is my first attempt
at writing to any paper. [ may at
tempt to write again soon. May God
bless the Farmers Alliance and it's
organ, The PROGRESSIVE FARMER, and
may the time not be far distant when
the laboring classes of our people shall
be freed from the CALLING yoke of
oppression under which they have
suffered so long; that they may be
what they were designed to be-a free
and happy people.
Fraternally yours,
S. B. PAGE, Sec'y Alliance S31.

alleges in the commercial world. The
moneyed kings have been enriching
themselves quite long enough from
the hard earnings of the laboring class.
We now have entered our protest,
and we intend to be heard not only in
a commercial, but in a political sense,
for, until we can gain recognition in
our legislative halls, both State and
Federal, we may expect but little
sympathy from the Shylocks who have
to great extent been running the
machinery of this government in their
own interests.
The Alliance Order is grand and
noble institution, founded upon the
fundamental principles of truth,
justice, and harmony, and we trust
the day is not far distant when it's
jurisdiction may reach from the Allan
tic to the Pacific and from the Lakes
to the Gulf, and embrace in it's ranks
every good citizen who must or does
live "by the sweat of his brow" We
mean of course, every one eligible un-
der the laws of the order.
Our membership in Virginia, is, as
yet, comparatively small, but, we are
happy to say, no truer or more jealous
workers in the cause can be found in
any other State. And, we have now
a gentleman at the helm, in the person
of our venerable brother, COL Barbee,
whose indefetigable energies will lead
us to the front rank in the great and
noble cause of our beloved order, and
we would not be discourteous by omit
ting to mention the efficiency of the
other State officers, all of whom are
men of high standing, both morally
and Intellectually, and of unfinching
nerve; men who are not afraid to sac
rifce time and means in the upbuild-
ing of the Alliance.
We would say in conclusion, that as
a delegate at Luray, we voted for the
resolution adopting The PROGRESSIVE
FARMER as our State Organ, and as an
officer of our Sub-Alliance we shall
urge it's members to become subscri-
bers for your journal, which if it con-
tinues to be as interesting as the copies
we have examined, should soon be
found in every Alliance household in
the State. Should this be admitted we
will write more anon, in reference to
the brotherhood of this State. So,
wishing The PROGRESSIVE FARMER
abundant success, and prosperity to the
Alliances everywhere, we remain,
~ Yours fraternally,
.t. JOHN II. FLOYD,
Asst. Lecturer.
