Organized Farmers.
Morristown Gazette.

Morristown Gazette.
No economic or business organiza-
ton in this State has ever grown and
prospered as rapidly in membership
as the new organization of the tillers
of the soil known as the Alliance. 1t
can not fail, if wisely managed, ac-
complishing a great reformation.
One of its main factors, as we under
stand them, is to settle all difficulties
by arbitration. We heartily indorse
the article given below, which we
clip from the Nashville American.
Farmers produce everything, yet
they are oppressed more than any
other class, and it is all their own
fault. They are in the majority and
can protect themselves if they will.
Organization is the way and only
way to oppose the greedy host of
wrong and oppression. The Ameri.
can says: "The farmers of the country
are learning the value of organiza-
ton. The great trouble with the
farmers has always been this want
of harmony Of purpose and concerted
action. They have been lambs for
all the wolves of the country. They
are most patient under long contin-
ued wrong of all men in the world.
A few men with plentiful supply
of money, no consciences aud thor
ough organization have been at all
times able to prey upon them with
IMMUNITY for the reason that they
have never met their enemies with
organized resistance. They are learn
ing their weakness now and striving
hard to remedy it. Every honest
newspaper, every lover of fair play
and every hater Of robbery and OPP
preston should stand with them and
by them, to aid with wise counsel
and encourage with hearty ap-
prevail"

THE BoTs wE NEED.

Here's to the boy who's not afraid
To do his share Of work;
Who neveris by toll dismayed, nt r.
And never tries to shirk.
The boy whose heart is brave to meet
All lions in the way;
Who's not discouraged by defeat
But tries another day.
The boy who always means to do
The very best he can;
Who always keeps the right in view,
And aims to be man.
Snch boys as those will grow to be
The men whose hands will guide
The future of our land; and we
Shall speak their names with pride.
All honor to the boy who is
A man at heart, l say;
Whose legend on his shield is this,
Fright always wins the day."

Local snake story makers have got to aim high to beat Guilford dispatch which says: "Mrs. Enos Barrett of this place was startled Saturday morning by hearing the parlor door open. She knew that mo- body had any business in there at that time and she proceeded to investigate. She was mortified to see big black snake wrig- gling around the parlor. With broom Mrs. Barrett began vigorous attack on the reptile, and after sharp tussle she succeeded in dispatching the snake. It measured four feet and six inches in length. The snake had effected an entrance into the parlor by winding it's body around the door knob and swinging to and fro. This turned the knob and the door was thrown open."

One charge agalnst it [the Henney bill is that bribery can still be practiced by buying voters to stay away from the polls That cannot be prevented under any scheme in the world, and is an objection of no ac- count. The others have more foundation They are that it is ''cumbersome" and that it is 'against the genius of our institu- tions." But what, pray, can be thought of that is so much ''against the genius of our institutions" as bribery or intimidation at the polls There is your great evil and against, our American institutions. What if it is trifle 'cumbersone Isn't it bet ter to have it hard to vote than to have it easy to bribe?

FoR some time the only question as to Pennsylvania's vote upon constitutional pro- hibition has heen as to the size of the major ity against it. Tuesday was the day of elec- ton. Philadelphia gave over g, 1000 advere majority, and the full vote of the state will show over 1SS,OOO against. The vote was much fuller than in Massachusetts,, but the most work seems to have been put in in be- half of the amendment, those opposed appear ing confident that little effort was needed from them. Here, as in Massachusetts large number of pronounced anti-rum men were influenced by dislike of ''making patchwork of the constitution" The result, no doubt, was affected by foolish remarks made by cranky prohibition speakers concerning the Johnstown flood, which were widely pub lished.

The funeral services of the late Rev. Ira Pettibone of Winchester Center were held in the Congregational church in that village last Friday afternoon. There was a large attendance. Among clergymen present were Rev. MT. PinneY of Winsted, Rev. MT. DePeu of Norfolk, Rev. MT. Hawley of New Hartford, Rev. MT. Moore of Colebrook, and Rev. Messrs. Eddy and Stone of North Canaan. The services were conducted by Rev. MT. Goodenough, pastor of the church, who read an appro- priate passage of scripture, followed by prayer by Rev. MT. Hawley. MT. Good enough then, in some remarks founded on the third chapter of Revelation and 18th verse, gave concise history of the de- ceased, his early struggles in obtaining an education, his work and success in the ministry, and the prominent and peculiar characteristics of his mind which made him fearlesslin the advocacy of any belief or doctrine that he held to be important. MT. Goodenough was followed by Rev. Dr. Eddy, who was an early and lifelong friend and acquaintance of MT. Pettibone. He gave some interesting incidents of the deceased of which he had personal knowl- edge. He spoke in eulogistic terms of the great work that had been performed by him for the church and religion during his long and eventful life. The pail bearers were his sons, Asa W. and Benjamin w., his son-in-law, A. A. Smith of Ogdens- burg, N. r., his grandson, Frederick Pet tibone, and Elliot Bronsan. The burial was in the family lot in Norfolk cemetery. His son, Col. Pettibone of Chicago, could not be present, owing to the necessity of his presence at the closing exercises of the high school in that city, where he is pro- lessor.

Othniel Gager, town treasurer of Nor wich, died Saturday morning, aged 95 years. MT. Gager was town clerk for near ly half century, and his books were mod els of accuracy and careful and handsome penmanship. About two years ago the people placed younger man in the office, but conferred upon their veteran servant the no less honorable position of town treasurer, in which his work would be less exacting. He has been steadily at his new desk until within short time.

Remarks by a street-Csr Horse.
From the NerO York World.

sY am great admirer of lovely woman ~
remarked the street-car horse to the
veterinary surgeon, but do wish it were
possible for them to get off and on the
street cars while the same are in motion.
1t is the hard straining necessary to start a
car full of passengers that is filing the
highways and byways of life with dead
horses. If street cars were patronized nv
men only, who swing on and off without
obliging us to stop for them, | would Just
as soon be a street-car horse as be president
of the company and take my chance of
going to jail.
Ladies regard the boarding of a street
car in motion as one of the most extraordi-
nary feats known to man. They think it
requires an iron nerve and a heart of steel.
They believe a man takes his life in mis-
hands whenever he gets on or off moving
street car. The other day saw approach.
ing the cur lady who used to be on the
farm where | was raised. She is now the
wife of a prominent broker | have seen
her many time jump on the bare back of
2-year-old colt as it galloped in the
pasture field. She thought nothing of
selziug the end of spring-pole that bound
on a load of hay, swinging to the top,
knocking off the drivers hat and
sliding to the ground again. But even this
woman made us stop on a heavy grade on
Broadway, with seventy-five passengers
aboard, to let her get on the car. That
made me sick We got such strain, me
and my pard, starting the car, that we
ought to have been entitled to lay-off for
a week at least l had great mind TO
kick. But there's the drivers whip. and
then, too, the bit that he Jerks so violently
on such small provocation. Better to suff, r
the hills we know than fly to others with
snapper attached.
There is another case that will help to
illustrate the point of my observations. I
know pretty little female acrobat and
trapeze performer who makes us stop the
car every time she gets on or off. And vet
this woman plunges twice a day from the
highest point In a circus tent and catches q
rope 40 feet away with her teeth. She is
fired from catapault and rides four horses
bhndfolded, aud yet when she gets on or off
street. car it must stop stone still. IL she
gets on at Twenty-third street and wants to
leave the car at Twenty fourth there are
two stops in single block. Respecting.
neigh, loving adorable woman as | do. IL
pains me to make these hoarse remarks. but
1t pains me more to do so Internal much
starting on up grades.
There is a tradition that street car
horses do not get enough to eat; that our
iced Is thrown to us where we cannot get it.
That is not the case. have permitted
many an oat to go to protest because had
too many of them. As for hay. have
eaten 1t until thought | would have te be
baled. No, it's the ladies-heaven bless
'emI-who are the source of all our whoss. p
