SPEECH OF HON. JOHN AT. REED.
Continued from First P -".
destructive disease ; or Infinitely worse,
it may be the loss of a loved cue in the
family. But if you are made of the Btuff
that wins you will never be overwhelm
ed by misfortunes, nor suffer discourag
monts to throw you down. "I know no
such unquestionable badge rnd ensign
of a sovereign mind," said Ei ierson, "as
that tenacity of purpose which through
all changes of companions, r parties,
or fortunes, changes never, I ites no jot
of heart or hope, but weari is out op
position and arrives at port " "It is
defeat," says Beecher, "that turns bone
to Hint and gristle to muscle And makes
men invincible," and tho wh ile matter
is summoned up by Orison f. Marden,
who says, "This is the te6t o your man
hood : ,how much have you 1 'ft in you
when you have lost everything outside
of yourself ? If you lie down now, throw
up your hands and acknowledge your
self womed, there is not much in you
But if, with heart undaunted and face
turned upword, if you scorn to beat a
retreat, you will show that the man
left in you is bigger than your loss,
greater than your cross, and larger
than defeat." The small boy gave the
antidote for failure when he said that
the way he learned to skate was get
ting up every time he fell down. Ap-
ply this remedy and you will recover no
matter how serious your failure may be.
My friends, I do not know as much
about farming as did Horace Greeley,
and you will observe that I have strict
ly refrained from giving you any de
tailed advice about how to make a
success of tho businesB. I took Mr.
Greeley's advice one time and went west
to grow up with the country. I bought
a farm. I lost it. I learned a valuable
lesson eyery man should stick to his
own knitting. I bad eighty acres of
good land. There was a man he was
not a farmer, he was a bunco-Bteerer
he told me he had one hundred and
sixty acres of land of such rich Boil and
so exceedingly productive that all you
had to do was to sit on the fence and
watch the crops grow. I gave him my
eighty acres and a good sum of money
for his farm with a mortgage on it.
The next spring I went out to watch
the crops grow, but instead I saw the
ducks swim. The man with the
mortgage took the farm, and I was a
sadder but wiser man. Farming is' an
honorable and a profitable business, but
you must master it to make a success
out of it. This, I understand, is one of
the objects of your oganization. No
one man knows it all. An interchange
of views, a swapping of ideas is not only
a mental stimulus, but of great assist
ance to the man who wants to make
progress ; and herein is the advantago
of your meeting together when every
member can draw on this common fund
for the improvement of h a biisinoss.
We are all, either diroctlyo' indirectly,
interested in husbandry, anil therefore
the Grange elicits our cordi; i sympathy
and best wishes.. It is ni-t a selfish
organization, and, in tho Ii turo as in
the past, I have no doubt it will follow
the lead of true philanthn py in suh
nrving the best interests of all the
people.. I am not aware of i ny organi
zation that has fulfilled its mission in
this respect more completely than has
tho Patrons of Husbandry. It is with
in my recollection when 'he Grange
wa8,instrumental in "defeat! ig the bill
in Congress to extend the patent on
sewing machines, and the result was
that the price on these machines fell to
about one-third, or at least to less than
one-half, of what they had been former
ly selling for.', I have tot had time to
verify this statement, but am sure it ia
substantially correct. Who can esti
mate the value of this one act alone to
the great body of our citizens. The
people who needed sewing machines the
worst were the least able to buy them,
and the Grange will be forever held in
grateful remembrance for having placed
this indispensable aid to the housewife
within the reach of all. It was through
your organization that the Department
of Agriculture was raised to the power
and dignity of a cabinet po: Ition, and
now agriculture and all its u ried Inter
ests have a voice in the count lis of the
nation. We were fast becoming a
nation of dyspeptics when the Grange
threw itself into the breach and through
the enactment of pure food laws Bought
In some measure to stop the ravages of
this dreadful malady ; and here the
poor and the rich alike can r'se up and
call you blessed. Last but nt t least the
Inter State Commerce Cort mission is
largely the creature of your 1 and ; and
j ist now, with a littlo more vested in
that body, the people are loot ing to it to
save them from tho maw of t io octopus.
These are a few of the besjon lights
shining out on the pathway a ong which
your organization has mover, and the
people take off their hats to you whon
they pass by them. The Pe msylvanl.i
farmer has been a mighty factor in all
of these great and beneficial move
ments, and the names of Leonard
Rhone, Jared C. Brown and Victor
Plolett deservedly stand high upon the
scroll of fame.
There is one phase of your organiza
tion woman. God bbBS her. What
could man do without her a very
present help in time of trouble. She
aids you in your work ; comforts you in
your misfortunes ; bears all her own
burdens and part of yours, and frequent
ly furnishes you with backbone when
your supply Is exhausted. She is the
inspiration of our lives ; true as steel
and self sacrificing to the last degree.
To her the doors of the Grange swing
In, and with her presence and by her
co-operation your organization is destin
ed to accomplish even grander things
in the future than it has in the past.
Over your work she casts a bow radiant
with immortality, uniting heaven and
earth, and proclaiming in unmistakable
terms that the great fundamental
principle underlying your organization
is charity in all things, with malice
toward none.
Now, my friends, I think I have
sufficiently afflicted you, and will sub
side with the hope that tho men will
not hold any grudge against me for
what I have said about their botter
halves. About thirty-years ago, when
I was a gay and giddy youth in this
town, I participated In a homo talent
dramatic performance given by the
young people in McCracken's hall, and
to appease your wrath for my useless
consumption of your time, I may con
clude with tho couplet then learned
and declaimed :
"To err Is human to fnrirlve divine,
I think I have somewhere heard or read that
line ;
Hut still a good thinR can't be said toooftcn
I f but one critic's heart it helps to soften.

The Problem or the Wagon Wheel.
Dear Editor :
The readers of the PlttBburg Times
have been stirred to some degree of
agitation during the last month by the
''Glady-Oxley Railroad problem," and
now I see an article In the Star of
March 22, written by somebody and
intended, I suppose, for everybody to
believe. But not altogether sir, says I.
It Is under the heudlng ' Eccentric
Wagon Wheel."
Now the writer was porhaj 3 a natural
philosopher and did riot v Ish to be
stingy with his knowledge ; i r perhaps
he was not so much ol a p illosopher
and was a little too generous with with
hlB opinions. However, tha , may bo,
I give hltn credit lor doing vt ry well in
bis philosophy until ho take! his wheel
off the axle ind starts it to roll down
the Inclined plane and then he surely
don't know whut he is talking about,
for ho says that overy point on the
circumference moves at the same rate
of speed and I say it does not, but acts
exactly as it does when on the wagon
axle and moving on the road.
Now anyone who may read this and
still believes the other follow rlglit and
me wrong, can, I believe, confer an
educational favor to the public and my
self especially by a good explanation in
The Star. An Inquirer.
