We give considerable space this
week to the report furnished us by
tho Chicago Cypress Of the proceed
ings Of the conference recently assem-
bled in Chicago, supposed to repre-
sent all Of the reform elements of the
country, and supposed to DO called to-
gether to unite upon a platform that
all could support. The result shows
that a few capitalists and political
demagogues took possession Of the
assembly and controlled it in their in,
terest. 10 is hoped that a few facts
contained in private letter from tlie
convention may be developed in form
sor general publication, and be back
ga BY sufficient evidence to sustain
shem in the Judgment Of tho people,
IL may thus be shown that il ls the
purpose Of those who are opposing
ehe great reforms desired by thO peo-
PIE, to accomplish their defeat by en-
tering reform conventions under the
garb Of friendship, and thea ooolly
bctraying the confidence reposed in
their pretended sincerity. The peo-
PIE are bound to be betrayed whom
ever andwhereever they place their
trust in political leaders of any OF the
ald parties.

We have heard several suggestions
recently with regard To the necessity
Embarrassing the efficiency Of our
lecture system. The educational
feature Of the Order is one Of the
greatest importance, and one upon
which our ultimate esuccess very large
~ depends, and the regular lectures
provided for in Sec. 8 Of our Sub-Alli-
ance Constitution Ore rightly regard
cd s one Of our most potential forces
in the system Of education cOntem-
plated. A good lecturer in a Sub
Alliance will insure good attendance
az the meetings and a correct appre-
citation by it's members Of those eco
nomic questions which IL is 80 oimport-
ant that all shall understand. TO re-
cieve the greatest possible good, how
ever, from this source the lecturer
should himself possess the most re-
liable and complete information pos
sible concerning the subjects OF which
he is expected 10 speak. To this end
he should be supplied with 'such
newspapers and periodicals as are
devoted to the interests OF the agri-
cultural and laboring classes, as well
as the books and standard permanent
literature devoted TO o discussion Of
the great economic questions OF the
day. Itwould probably be asking
too much OF tho lecturer to provide all
these available sources Of information
at his own expense, anda very small
contribution from each member, while
itwould not be a hardship TO any one
would provide ample means Of infor-
nation to theleCturer, and would re-
suit in much pleasure and profit to
an. We suggest these thoughts to
&he favorable consideration Of our
Epb-Alliances and these suggestions
Will be followed by others looking to
the still greater efficiency of this edu-
eational feature Of our Order.

from the slough OF despOnd into
which IL has been plunged by lis en-
omiesi The abolition Of the monop-
olies. The watchword should be 'gTho
monopolics must CO." Why sO7 The
significant and notable cause Of the
ills with which society is cursed is
monopoly. To the great body Of so
cial ills Of which the masses 80 much,
and rightly complain, it leads as I'M
erringly as sunset lends to darkness.
The monstrous inequality in the di-
vision Of the fruits Of labor, the vast
wealth existing side by side with tho
deepest poverty, the annoying over
production and general duIlness OF
the markets, the enormous ind" btness
OF the people which is still growing
and growing, the debOuchery and
high liio crimes on the one hand, and
the intemperance and lOw-life crimes
on the other hand, the waste Of cNpi-
tai diverted into forced and unnatur-
al channels amidst the waste Of effort
on the part OF those who
must labor at every dis
advantage fen want Of adequate
capital, tho scoring and depression
OF the best that is in man, and the de-
velopment of tho worst That is 70 him
these all are traceable to the one
single authorship, vis.-monopoly.
They can be traced to no other Su-
thorship. The industries of che ma
tion could not be monopolized into
existing forms without the resulting
Ills just named. The absence Of all
monopoly and the presence Of com
mon and aIl-wide competition could
never be attended with any such ills.
But why should the monopolies be
abolished7 Why not attempt to con-
troll these rs existing institutions, per-
mitting them to remains Have we
not tried 10 control them as such and
invariably fOiledf tits impossibleto
do So Attempting to bAttle against
them and permitting them to exist is
like attempting to fight against the
malaria and live in the swamp re-
gions. We may in the latter case dose
ourselves with quinine and bitter
medicine and thus TO an extent coun-
teract the effects of tho vapors which
surround us, but each succeeding dAy
renders us less able to contend against
a danger persistent and unrelenting.
We must simply yield in the end, and
it is reasonable to suppose such to be
Che case. AS long as the mOnOpolies
are extant their managers can make
use OF them TO overcharge and under
pOy toany extent they please, Oh in
other words, tax up all expenses both
their own and the peoples tGthe peO-
pie every time an expense is incur
red to try to bring tho monOpohsts to
terms. With the power to do that
the attempt to control the monopo-
lists as existing institutions bscOmCsa
thing of the utmost futility-
But this is not the best reason why

County Farmers Alliance:
IL is with feelings Of the profound
est pleasure that / take this opportun-
ity Of returning my thanks to you Eor
this the highest honor in the gift OF
the membership Of this county. Com
ing as it has ky unanimous vote OF
the assembled farmers OF thirty sub
ordinate Alliances, / assure you that
such demonstration OF your partial
ity is duly appreciated; and in pre-
siding over your deliberations, it will
ever be my highest ambition to dis
charge that duty faithfully, fairly and
impartiaIIy to the best Of my ability.
/ shall no doubt make mistakes, but
appeals will always be cheerfully
granted; and as my position will pre-
vent my taking part in your delibera-
tions for the coming year, allow me
before taking my seat, to say that J.
feel the Importance and necessity Of
organization.
We arc to-day as q people, upon
this continent, in tho midst OF a
mighty social revolution, and the
watch-word- organization and prac-
ticsl cooperation is sthe shibboleth
ofeyery successful business enterprise
that marks the progress OF this en-
lightened age. The word, co-operO'
ton, means TO us more than any other
word in the English language. 1t is
the fat OF tho Almighty Creative
Power, and permeatos all things, both
animate and inanimate. The heaven
ly bodies in all their mysterious move
ments throughout the realms Of in
finite space are subject to the laws OF
attraction and repulsion, or governed
by and conducted upon the principles
of corporation. II requires the COM
bined effort Of the earth, the air, the
sun and the water to produce q single
blade Of grass. A single ray Of light
from the sun would never reach the
earth but would be lost in the immen-
sity of space; bnt all combined they
shed their ehulgent rays throughout
endless distances and light q world OF
planets everywhere. A single drop
Of water would never reach the parch-
cd earth. The majestic mountains
that tower to the regions Of perpetual
snow are composed Of single grains Of
sand, and the boundless ocean is on
accumulation Of single drops Of water.
And now lot me sOy in conclusion,
that without the strictest adherance
10 these principles and their praCti-
teal application toevery enterprise in
which we engage as an organization,
failure and humiliation will bo the
inevitable consequence The busi-
ness world to-day that has grown rich
upon the profits Of the great produc-
tive industry OF agriculture that we
represent is looking for every means

A Dissenting oDin,oa.

1here Is an immense deal of supersti-
ton about the intelligence of horses. I
stopped today at the eurbstone to chat
with an expressman. I said to him,
aow much does your horse known
That horse, sir, " he replied, "knows Just
exactly as much as a man." This is the
way everybody talks who owns a horse.
or tends horses, and it seems to me to be
perfect nonsense. I have seen horses
walk around a post until they had wound
the bride all up, and then stand for
hours with their heads up against the
hltching post, simply because the didn't
have sense enough to walk the other
way and unwind themselves. have
seen them, when hitched to ring in the
pavement, get their feet over the bride.
and then go into fits because they didn't
have sense enough to lift their feet back
over tie bride again.
have seen them dance around in n
burning barn with their names and tails
on fire, simply because they didn't have
sense enough to run out. Anybody can
steal a horse without any objection from
the horse. A horse will stand still and
starve or freeze to death, with nothing
between him and acomfortable stall and
plenty of oats except an old door that he
could kick down with one foot and that
could be opened by removing a pin with
his teeth. If this shows high degree
OF intelligence, even for a brute, cam
not see it. Compared with the dog, the
elephant, or even the parrot, the horse
seems to me to be perfect fool.-Side-

Sell Eggs by Weight.

Here is a scene in a grocery: Two
farmers brought in some eggs to sell.
The one was evidently proud Of his eggs
and proud of the birds that laid them.
He had flock of fine Plymouth Rocks,
and the eggs they laid were beauties. A
dozen Of them weighed thirty-nine
ounces, an average of three and a quarter
ounces each. The other farmer brought
in his eggs without saying a word, had
nothing to say Of them or the fowls that
laid them. A dozen of his eggs weighed
twenty-one ounces, an average Of one
and three-quarter ounces each. Both
lots of eggs were carried to the rear Of
the store by clerk, counted and each
man got cent apiece for his eggs. As
he of the small eggs passed bystander
in going out he winked knowingly and
said: ''That man with the big eggs is
fool; his hens eat a heap more than
mine, make no moro eggs-though they
are bigger-but he gets no more for
them. New York Mail and Express.
