tho other hand, have simply neglected
their duly In this lespcct. Tho Grango
an organization erected after tho beau
tiful model of our federal system, is al
most, if not quite, perfectly adapted to
their purpose. Why should they not
uso it? If it bo said thoy aro widely
scattered nnd accustomed chiefly to
tho solitary life of tho fields aud tho
secluded homestead, it is answered that
there circumstances fu nish tho very
strongest reasons for regular nnd stated
association together. When tho Dec
laration of Independence was about to
bo signed a delegate said, 'Come, let
us all hang togotlicr." "Yes," respond
ed Dr. Franklin, "for if wo don't, we'll
all hang separately." That caso is
youra precisely.
Uur forefathers believed that our
republican institutions would remain
pure aud sccuro bo long as they rested
mainly upon tho broad shoulders ot an
agricultural population. ''This reli
ance, said Mr. Jefferson, ''cannot de
ceive us ns long as wo remain virtuous
and 1 think wo shall bo bo as long as
agriciilluiu is our principle object,
which will bo tho case while thero re
main vacant lands in any part of
America. When wo get piled upon
ono another in largo cities, as iu Europe
wo shall becomo corrupt as in Europe,
and go to eating up one another as
thoy do there." AUs, how narrow tlio
ken of tho wisest of mortals! When
tho eye of tho patriot sago scanucd
the wido expanse of our fertile territor
ies, when again ho doubled them by
tho splendid Louisiana purchase, he
thought ho could pierce the dim iuttiro
and sco them occupied by countless
millions of thrifty, independent and in
corruptible men. who would keep tho
covenant of liberty forever. But how
different tho reality from the golden
dream of tho prophet I Empires havo
been carved from tho3o lands, and
given to corporations, adding new
strength to tho already powerful com
binations of monopolies. The railroad
monopolist forces himself into partner
ship with every tiller of thoeo bounti
ful fields, and takes from him well
nigh tho last cent of profit beforo ho
will eonsent to removo his produce.
The small farms aro covered with mort
gages, and tho usurer awaits his oppor

uidpprndent of human occupations, the
individual man is receding, and associ
ated capital farms great tracts thou

Men of Pennsylvania, is it not full
time to think, to consult, to unito and
to act!
Prom Lt Oov. Black's Letter Accepting the
Nomination for Governor, Sept. 16, 1886.
"During the past year Pennsylvania,
in common with many other States, has
foil profoundly, and to her sore cost,
the throes of labor madly seeking the
betterment of its condition, with tho
redrecs of wrongs knoivn to exist, tho
remodit s for which aro but ynauely
understood. Tho los'es inflicted by
these recurring struggles aro simply
tremendous and incalculable They
fall heavily upon all clashes, and upon
none more heavily than the working
men themt clvc;. Must they go on for
ever ? Such wido tumults among men
ordinarily sober and industrious, Biich
vast sacrifices of bread and peace by
multitudes of intelligent, and orderly
citizens, aro not without crave causo. I
believe they will cease, and ceaso only
when the wage-earner is placed upon
tho dead level of legal equality with
t'10 wa
eve,ry l1
actions
tho wage-payer, at overv stage and in
particular ot tlio several trans-
between them. .Men ot conser
vative minds havo witnessed tho beno
ficial results of tho progress of labor in
ionization, witn intense saitsiac-
oraamzation, completed
fected, promises apparently jus
tice, order, and repose to all tho inter
ests concerned. Why not give to it
tho sanction of tho law and tho protec
tion of tho Sta',0 ?
"Incorporation may prove to do tho
simple but beneficial expedient of which
all modern society appears to bo in
common search. Tho remedy for all
pnblio and private wrongs must be in
tho law i and industry organized under
tho law, and with tho protection of the
law that is given to capital, would find
its own safety in the just restraints of
tho law, which mako tho rights of per
sons and property pacred under our
freo institutions.
"Liko the men who woik for daily
i" weekly wages, tho agricultural peo
pie, with even less excuse for the dere
liction, have neglected the caro of their

1 traded failure to employ tho necessary

"olds than upon any other form of
