WASHINGTON, June 13th-During the
progress of the inquiry by the Interstate
Commerce Commission on the Sd of Nav

free transportation, the attorneys of several
of the roads summoned to appear
took exception to the order of the Com
mission requiring them to show their pass
lists and the Commission later set to. dav

counsel.
Yesterday the Commission received
notice from counsel representing two Of the
roads to the effect that it would be i'm

briefs in place of oral arguments. This re-
quest was granted and the counsel of the
other roads which took exception to the
order will be notified that they can have

Mr.. ED1roR:-It has been some
time since l have seen anything in
your valuable paper concerning old
Beaver Dam, but | will now say to
you brethren that we have large
membership and several more petit
tions, whom we think is among the
best men of old Martin, and l pray
God may speed them on and let them
join in with US and help us fight this
noble cause of ours, that we may see
our wives and blessed little ones,
more enjoy the great comforts that
God has so provided for them, and I
trust that every man who is eligible
may at once come and unite with us
and share q part of this important
privilege that we intend to have in the
end. And, nay brethren, I think the
time is just approaching when we can
stand upon the American soil and
safely say that this is peoples coun-
try, and that we do not propose to
have the monied man to double the
dollar so unfair and cheat our honest
men out of their rights any longer.
Ho for Carolina 1t is land to be
d A land Of love and sweet liberty.
Brethren, have been reading The
PROGRESSIVE FARMER for some time,
but at last I have seen the great in
surance plan suggested that I have
wanted to see for so many long years,
by B. I. Hicks, which | will sincerely
say in my opinion it is one of the best
suggestions yet made for the laboring
class of people. We have seen SO
many widows and fatherless children,
almost destitute of house and home,
who had to follow the plow and pull
the hoe from sun to sun to get their
little earnings, and at last they are
fguered out of almost one-half in the
end to pay the man who carries the
large trunks and visits in every land.
The costs of the insurance, brethren,
is comparatively very small item to
what we hope to gain In the end.
Who would utter world or hesitate
moment to pay So or So per year
for an insurance of this kind 2 No
one, [ believe, in this great, broad
universe. So I hope the brethren
will come together at once and sug-
gest their plans. IF any of the breth-
rem have not seen the plan suggested,
you will look in the issue of October
1st 1889, page 4, and there you will
fId the article that takes the cake.

THE BUSINESS AGENCY FUND

Mr.. EDIToR:-Among the many
grievances that beset us farmers there
are none more oppressive, and none
requiring more immediate action on
our part to counteract than that which
proceeds from the intolerable exsc
tions of these trusts and combines
There is one radical remedy by which
we can become disenthralled, relieved
of the Unsuitable greed which is de-
vouring us on all sides in case we
unite with an indomitable determine
ton to cast aside the insuferable yoke
that enslaves us. It is by conducting
and controlling our business, in all of
it's ramifcations, through business
agencies and exchanges in the disposal
OF our produce and the purchase of
supplies.
Have the brethren endeavored to
realize the vital Importance of this
method to circumvent our enemies ?
style them enemies, for they are
nothing more nor less, and it is the
height of hypocrisy to pretend that
we entertain any other feeling than
loathsome hatred towards a class
whom it would be sacrilege to admit
we felt otherwise. AS we all know,
our needs force us to sell our products
as soon as they are ready for market.
We thus glut the market and reduce
the price below the normal value of
the staple. The subsequent rise is the
source of profit to those who avail
themselves of it; and to save this
profit to ourselves is the ne plus ultra
OF our material prosperity and tenn
poral salvation. One thing certain,
our loss is somebody's gain, and this
gain we must and shall put in our own
pockets.
The establishment of exchanges is
the hub of the wheel that will roll us
ON to the goal we are striving after.
Nor should we stop after each State
has perfected thorough system of
exchange, but, in order that free trade
for our products should flow freely
from State to State, National Ex.
change should be eventually estab.
ished, by which means we can effect
direct inter state exchange of our pro-
duce. Such control will dispense with
all intermediate manipulation, thus
doing away with the hosts of jobbers,
brokers, wholesalers, factors, middle
men of every description, whose COM
missions or profits we can pocket our.
selves by interchange and direct inter.
course with first hands, all round, and
liking our own values. A striking
instance of our inconsequence and
nonentity in fixing values is afforded
by our everyday minor transactions
with store-keepers. Does it not look
rather one-sided when the farmer, in
buying merchants goods, must ask,
what is your price ? and when he de.
slres to sell his goods to that same
merchant he asks, what will you give2
In liking prices the farmers time
never comes, and this great disparity
under which we labor in the mart is
what constitutes most ruinous de.

POOR RICHARDS SAYINGS.

Benjamin Franklin published an
almanac in 1857 from which I Gull the
following:
The taxes are indeed very heavy,
and if those laid on by the govern
ment were the only ones we had to
pay we might the more easily discharge
them; but we have many others, and
much more grievous to some of US.
We are taxed tsOice as much by our
IDLENEss, three times as much by our
PRIDE and four times as much by our
FOLLY; and from these taxes the com
missioners cannot deliver us.
= y y X x
It would be thought hard govern
ment that should tax its people one
tenth part of their time to be employed
in its service, but idleness taxes many
of us much more, if we reckon all
that is spent in absolute sloth, or doing
of nothing; with that which is spent
in idle employments or amusements
that amount TO nothing. Sloth, by
bringing On disease, absolutely short
ems life. Sloth, like rust, consumes
faster than labor wears. Dost thou
love life +? then do not squander time,
for that's the stuff life is made of.
Sloth makes all things difficult, but
industry all things easy.
Laziness travels SO slowly that pow
erty soon overtakes him.
What signifies wishing and hoping
for better times We make times
better if we bestir ourselves.
Industry need not wish.
LEISURE.
Methinks I hear some Of you say
/" Must man afford himself no leisure?
I will tell thee: Employ thy time well,
if thou meaness to gain leisure; and
since thnn art not sure af > nisszsa
throw not away an hour.
Leisure is the time for doing some
thing useful This leisure the dill
gent man will obtain, but the lazy
man never A life of leisure and a
life of idleness are two things. Do
you imagine that sloth will afford you
more comfort than labor? Trouble
springs from idleness and grievous toll
from needless ease. Many, without
labor, would live by their wits only,
but they'll break for want of stock.
Industry gives comfort and plenty
and respect.
The progressive farmer. [volume] (Winston, N.C.) 1886-1904, 1889-10-22
ATTENTION TO BUSINESS.

We must oversee our own affairs.
The eye of the master will do more
work than both his hands. Want of
care does US more damage than want
of knowledge.
Not to oversee workmen is to leave
them your purse open.
Trusting too much to others care
is the ruin of many.
Add frugality to industry. Think
of saving, as well as getting.
The Indies have not made Spain
rich, because her outgoes were greater
than her incomes.
By extravagances, the gentle are
reduced to poverty and forced to OBJ
tain credit of those whom they form
erly despised, but who, through in
dustry and frugality have maintained
their standing. Pride is as loud a
beggar as want, and q great deal more
saucy.
Think what you do when you run
in debt. You give to another power
over your liberty. If you cannot pay
at the time, you viii be ashamed to
see your creditor, you will make poor
sneaking excuses and by degrees come
to loose your veracity and sink into
base downright lying.
The second vice is lying, the first is
running into debt. Lying rides upon
debts back. A free-born American
ought not to be ashamed or afraid to
see or speak to any man living. The
borrower is slave to the lender, and
the debtor to the creditor, disdain the
chain, preserve your freedom and
and maintain your independence.
For age and want, save while you may;
No morning sun lasts whole day.
Gain may be temporary and uncer
tain, but while you i've, expense is
constant and certain. We may give
advice, but cannot give conduct.
