patience and await the morrow before
taking in the sights of this wonderful
city. Our tours around the city were
more limited here, owing to the severe
illness of one of our party; still we man
aged to see much TO admire. think
Denver the prettiest city l have ever
visited. The streets are broad and a
good system of street railway all over
the city. Elegant homes are numerous,
and the business blocks are substantial
and handsome-stonef figures extensively
in the buildings, and much red stone
used. We visited Ellich's Garden, the
Tabor Grand Opera House, and various
other places of interest, and INDUCED in
street car rides all over the principal
lines. We said goodbye to Denver,
feeling that we had left much unseen.
We travelled through Nebraska al
most the entire day before reaching
Kansas City. Some portions of the
country were beautiful and some of the
towns thrifty looking, but many of the
little towns wore slack, down-at-the-
heel appearance, and were adorned with
very few substantial looking houses.
When we reached Kansas City, our rela-
tives and friends gave us a hearty well
come, and we were only too glad to ac-
cept of their kind hospitality and rest
after our long journey l am fond OF
Kansas City there is so much enter
prise, push, and go there. She is indeed
a busting city, and though the cry OF
hard times is heard now, think she
will soon pull through with flying col
ors. Gov. Crittenden has an elegant,
spacious home there on First Avenue,
and am told he dispenses hospitality
in true Kentucky style. Kansas City
has thorough system of cable and cleo
trio cars.
After several delightful weeks spent
in that delightful city, l left for Decatur,
H., for short stay. Decatur Is thriv-
ing city, surrounded by fertile and
lovely country. While there i called
upon Mr.. Robert Clary and family. Mr..
Clary is an old resident of Meade,
where his boyhood was spent. l reach
ed Louisville the day of the great Dem
ocratic victory, Nov. 4th. When |
found myself once more in the dear old
State, my heart gave throb of joy, and
it was sweet to breathe the atmosphere
of home once more. TERRELL.

the old order of things.

But the prospects of the farmer have
not improved. Everything raised for
market he has been compelled to sell at
unremunerating prices, while paying
high for what he buys. With debts pill
ing up, mortgages increasing, and want
staring him in the face, it is not strange
that he hopes by another move, now
made, to extricate himself from these
troubles. This time it is the Farmers
Alliance-an improvement, let us hope,
upon the Grange move, but similar to il
in many respects. 1t remains to be
seen whether or not it will share the
fate OF its predecessor. We truly hope
it may better the farmers condition, but
already there are indications of disagree
ment among themselves that bodies no
good for the order.
*.e
One mistake appears common to vari-
GUS organizations-tha is, running them
into politics. The Alliance is no excep-
ton, and yet there is surely patriotism
and sound principles in one or the other
of the two great political parties suffi-
cient to appreciate the needs of the
farmer and laboring classes generally,
and YnoLa lau-c oooorl;nol,, Tlo ouo,
ton of third party will not avail
Elect to office good, honest men, compe-
tent to discharge the duties thereof;
hold them to strict accountability in ev-
cry respect see that they are faithful to
their trusts, and the interests of all-not
of class-will be promoted. Politics,
when lugged in out of place, is the bane
OF all organizations for ameliorating the
condition of mankind.
-
The writer has witnessed the rise and
fall of societies which, but for the mix
ture of politics, might have accomplished
much good. Temperance societies were
at one time very popular, and it was un-
derstood that there were to be no poll
tics in it, and yet no sooner than able to
stand alone, it must be associated with
politics; its downfall was natural con-
sequence. Teetotalism followed in its
wake, but to be stranded upon the same
rock Prohibition, as at present con-
Quoted, will fare no better. Extremists
do not have the patience requisite to ac-
complish great reforms; people must be
educated up to these salient points.
-
What moral suasion fails to effect, il is
poorly worth while to attempt by CO.
ercion. In the beginning good and evil
were set before men; they chose evil
rather than. good, because their deeds
were evil. Teach them so that they
may cease to do evil and learn to do
good, and this by degrees; don't aim
to reform everything at once; don't
look for perfection in anything. There
are too many societies, in the church
and out of the church, which causes di-
vided effort, each tending to weaken or
antagonize the other, whereas ain union
there is strength" Concentrated effort,
moral suasion, in place of divided coun-
ellis, enforced morality. The law pun
ishes offenders, but does not make men
honest.

As result of these things, majority
perhaps of Changers were elected to the
Legislature next succeeding, session of
1879; at any rate they had sufficient
strength to shape business to suit their
ideas, and it was known as the Grange"
Legislature, They reduced taxes, in the
interest OF the farmer, it was supposed,
but, singularly enough, neglected to re-
duce expenses at the same time-even
collected in full the usual price for their
own services, including mileage and
stationery. The result was a deficit in
the treasury, which the next Legislature
session of lS79-S0-was called on to
provide for by increasing the taxes
again and reducing salaries, fees and
other expenses. Much OF this curtail-
ing of expenses was did away with by
the succeeding meeting OF the General
Assembly. In the meantime the Grange
movement had been found not to work
well; chickering's and discussions arose

THE DAILY has worked energetical-
ly and earnestly for two years to se-
cure a free mail delivery and it is
quite glad to chronicle the fact at
last that Winston has secured it.
It has been talked over for quite a
while and it has been known for
some time that the business of this
office and the size of this city justified
such a system.
This is another point scored for
Winston. We need such system
and if it is well conducted it we'll be a
great advantage to our citizens.
There are ninety-seven applications

of which Winston, N. c., is one and
Ishpeming. Michigan, is the other.
