application of our principles, are es-
tablishing a grcatei monopoly and a
more hurtful ring than those we
complain of. This assertion is both
i a monopoly? Did you ever examine
carefully to find out? Let us acek
seek for its riginal meaning, nnd
we find it is from the Greek woreTs
nutnos, alone and xrrrt, to sell, or
literally, to srll alone, llv one of our
lcst autliorities it is defined as fol
lows: "The ole power of dealing

i i.ti tin f v-w a 1 1 v . 4t ra, v ijkj i v;
power or permission to deal; exclu
sive command or possession." Such
powers are usually vested by some
authority in the hands of some per
soji, or at sac-. oJ afew persons as
sociated iuto a corporation or com
pany. Tiese persons are protected
in certain rights and privileges by
law, or by the-control of vast c ipital
j to the exclusion of the great mass of
their fellow citiaens. They usually
! exercise tles privilege- regardless
I of the wishes nod interests el the
nopolies which we all know have ex-
isted and do exist in the handling
of grain, cotton and other products
of ugriculturc; and the great rail
road, navigation and monopolies,
which have too long been and over
shadowing ajiel blighting power
throughout our laudL But how dif
fferant from this is tbe beneficent
spirit of the Giange, based rapou the
w-aiiLsaiad. interests ol the mil pre

all i-aMonsJ. prosperity. How differ

wealth of modticts nnd Inhor. From
these hae all the boasted wealth of
tnosc wtio onoose to oppose us heen
accumulated, either justly or unjust
ly. We trust the time is coming, and
that at no distant day, when the
mere power of money unsupported
by merit and justice, if placed in the
balance against true rminhood aud
womanhood, will go up like a feath
er in tho scales against a true
weight. True manhood and woman
hood should ever outweigh the mere
consideration of money.
Grange Enterprises.
As patrons of Husbandry, we are
contending for principle ;we are con
tending for a set of noble purposes,
founded on the eternal principles of
truth and-justice; not for the ad
vancement of any man or set of men,
nor any political prty; nor is our
motive tire ovethrow of any man, set
of men or political party. Our en
terprises ar not speculative, but
protective in their intentions and
character. The Kaome it a Grange
enterprise, I eare not what it is, be
gins to b conducted for speculative
purposes, iastead of tho protection
of agriculture and our industrial
classes, that moment it ceases to
breathe tbe truo spirit of our Order;
it will ecessarilv causo dissatisfac-
tion and division among our mem
bers; it aftt-st soon Languish and d'e.
Let us-, then, avoid this rock, my j
fellow-Patrwi, as a ship would shun I
the sho&ls ru reefs upon our coast.
By a speculative purpose here, I
mean the purpose of enabling those
who manage an enterprise to accu
mulate wcak by it, or to make
money out of it, in the common
sense of the terra, instead of saving
as much expense as possible to the
menxbers of the Grange. But I re
joice to say that, so far as my knowl
edge goes, our various Grange en
terprises in this State and elsewhere
will stand the test of tho strictest
examinations in this and other re
soecJ.. Should anv on cntfr th?
Grange expecting to take adrantago
of it to accumulate moneyed or po
litical capital, he will find himsdf
wofully mistaken.
The Farmer as a Middleman.
I The attempt to make farmers np-
pear to be monopolists and specula
tors by their organization in the
Grange is only n little less absurd
than the lame effort uhich appeared
lately in a respectable paper of Sun
Francisco, to prove that the farmer
himself is a middleman himself be
tween the miller and the baker. It
is a great distortion of words to try
to prove tho farmer, by reason of
his occupation, a middleman in any
sense. What is a middleman? Its
definition by an acknowledged au
thority is tbis: "An agent between
between two parties, a go-between,
a broker." In no manner can the
farmer in tilling or pasturing the
soil be made to appear as an agent
between two parties, except it is be
tween Nature, or I should say the !
God of Nature, and the needy mill
ions of the world who are fed aud
clothed aud sheltered by the lich
products of his toil.

And
this is right on the principle, "Live
and let live." As to the farmer be-
insr abrokcr." tho onlv instance
unwun
in which I know of
his becoming
ouo is when, as is too frequently the
case, he find himself "broke" at the
end of the year's Iran- ac iots Be
ing a "broker" in thin sense certain
ly places him in n very different po
sition from that of the usual broker.
Ths Grange and the Press.
Having alluded to what a newspa
per has to s;iy of us, allow me iu con
eluding these remarks to fcay in gen
eral, that no order or class of citi
zens has ever perhaps shown a high
er appreciation of the press than
hare the farmers in the Grange. We
have shown our estimate of it by ad
mitting into our ranks some of its
editors who were not practically en
gaged in agriculture, but have al
ways proTed themselves to be the
true friends of agriculture. We in
tend this as an acknowledgement of
the great value of the press, whose
truo mission it is to tow brt adcast
tho seeds of knowledge ami truth
among our people We vafoo the
rfiendship of the papers, and we are
gratified that heretofore, in Califor
nia especially, we have had a goodly
share of their fvor. We appreciate
this, and hopo it will continue. We
value the support of the prodncing
and industrial classes, regardless of
their party affiliations. True, thero
have been a few papers, especially
in San Francisco, which have either
abused us outrigSit, or pnrsaed a
policy which ia equivalent to patting
on tho back with one hand and slap
ping us in the face with tho other.
Fortunately the circulation of such
sheets is very limited, esefcptin the
city, aiul we hope it will bo moro so.
Sotue have even gone so far as to in
dulge in personalities, especially
since the unfortunate failure of 11.
E. Morgan's Sons, which beyond
question was carefully planned and
brought about by the machinations
of those who choose to bo or , ene
mies. To such piTtoaalities wo
wish to pay no attentiou, and have
paid none. In advocating so great
and good a cause as ours we wish to
use reason , not peiowl aue 'r we
wish to appeal t the judgment,
god common sense and just impul
ses of mankind, not to their person
al prejudices and passions. Person
alities prove nothing except it be tho
weakness of the cause thev aro cm-
ployed to advo-nt. We prf;r to
have nothing to do with such weak
and brainless argument,'
Elevate the Nation.
It is related of the truly great and
lamented Agasths that not long be
fore his untimely death, for which
tho world ie still mourning, a friend
of hii, Professor Pierre, then on hit
way to Washington, playfully aalce4'
him what he should tell Congress
for him . ' 'Tell them ," said Agassis;
'it is their duty to do something to
elornte the irnti.m." Pntroria &
friends, the hopo lias been long lout
throughout the Union that either
Congress or our State Legislatures,
constituted as tbey have been for
year, will cverelo anything to ele-
v.ite the nation. Ifat tho Patrons of
Husbandry, the sons of the soil, anf
their friends throughout the length
and breadth of our land, cherish the
hope that by a strict maintenance of
our principles as publicly declared,
first among ourselves and then,
among all our people, we shall final- '
ly and at no dihtnnt day, by properly
j influencing nil political parties
have a Congress, and Legislatures
i and Executives, and a Judicary that'
