Delaratls r PrlMlrlea,
For the benefit of members of the
order and the information of the pub
lic generally, we publish the following
declaration of principle1 :
PREAMBLE.
Profoundly impressed with the truth
that the National Grange of the
United States definitely proclaim to
the world its genera objects, we here
by, unanimously, make the Declara
tion of Purposes of the Patrons of
Husbandry.
GENERAL OBJECTS.
1. United by the strong and faith
ful tie of Agriculture, we mutually
resolve to labor for the good of our
Order, our country and mankind.
MOTTO.
2. We heartily endorse the motto:
'In essentials, Unity: in Don-essen-
tials, Liberty: in all things, Charity."
SPECIFIC OBJECTS.
3. We shall en leaver to advance
our cause by laboring to accomplish
the following objects.
lo develop a better and higher
manhood and womanhood among our
selves.
To enhance the comforts and attrac
tions f our homes and strengthen
our attachment to our pursuits.
To foster mutual understanding and
co-operation.
To maintain inviolate our laws, and
to emulate each other to hasten the
good time coming.
To reduce our expenses, both indi-,
vidua! and co-operative.
To buy leas and produce more, in
order to make our farms self-sustain-
b& i
To diversify our crops, and crop no i
ore than we can cultivate. I
To condense the weight cf our
ex-
and
ports, selling less in the bushel
more on hoof and in fleece.
To systematize our work and calcu
late intelligently on probabilities.
To discontinue the credit system,
the mortgage system, the fashion sys
tem, and every other system tending
to prodigality aud bankruptcy.
We propose meeting together, talk
ing together, working together, buy-
general acting together for ou'r mutu-
ciarion mar require.
We kail avoid litigation ai muck
m poaaiule, by arbitration in the
Grange.
We shall constantly strive to secure
ntire harmony, good will, vital bro
therhood among ourselves, and to
maka our Order perjetual.
We ahall earnestly endeavor to
uppreM personal, local, sectional and
national prejuaices, an unneaitny nv -
alrr, all seJnsh ambition.
Faithful adherence to thee princi
ples will insure our moral, mental, so
cial and material advancement.
FC8IFE RELATIONS.
4. For our Im-siiie interests, w
d"ire to bring producers and consum
er, farmr aud manufacturers into
the mwt direct and friendly relation
possioie. xience we must aispens-
jle.

wc are unfriendly to them, but we do
not need them.
Their surplus and their exactions
diminish our profits.
We wage no aggressive warfare
against any other interest whatever.
On thejeontrary, all our acts and nil
our eflbrts, so far as business is con
cerned, arc not only for the benefit of
the producer and consumer, but also
for all other interests that tend to
bring these two parties into speedy
and economical contact. Hence we
hold that transportation companies of
every kind are necessary to our Suc
re", that their interests are intimate
ly connected with our interest, and
harmonious action i-s mutually advan
tageous, keeping in view the first sen
With fci Kiirniiu -t mwiiihkniAn rif tKat t
tence in our declaration of principles
ot aiim tnat "Individual happinof
depends upon general prosperity."
We shall, therefore advocate for
every State the increase in every prac
tical way of all facilities for tianspor
tiug cheaply to the rseaboard, or be
twef u home producers and consumer,
all the productions of our country.
We adopt it aa our fixed purpose to
"open out the channels in Nature
great arteries that the life-blood of
commerce may flow freely."
We) arc not cucinit of railroad,
navigabb', and irrigating canals, nor
of any corporation that will advance
our industrial interett, nor of any
laboring clasMje.
Li our noble OrdT their i no corn-
niuiiism, no iigranatnsm.
j We are Vipposed to such f j'irit and
! management of any corporation, or
! enterprise as tends to oppnws the peo-
pie and rob them of their just profit.
Wc are not enemies to capital; but
; we oppow: the tyranny of in .n jMilies.
i e long to see thr autagonl'-m bc-
twten capital and lalor removed ly
common consent, and by enlightened
fUtcsmanship worthy of the uiucteuth
ceuturv.
We are opposed to excessive salaries,
hiirh rates of iuterest, and exhorbi
taut Jr cent, profits in trade. They
greatly increare our burdens and do
not bear a' proper pnportion to the
profit of jroduct rs.
We desire only ?lf protection of
every true interest tf our land by le
gitimate transaction, legitimate trade
and legitimate profit.
tMXATlOy.
We shall advance th cause of edu
cation among ourselves and for our
children, by all juat means within
our power. We especially advocate
for our agricultural and indusUial col
kiges. that practical agriculture, do
mestic science, aud all the arts which
adorn the home, be taught in their
course of study.
POLITICAL RELATIONS.
5. We emphatically and wnccrely
assert the oft-repcated truth taught in
our organic law, that the Grange,
National, State or subordinate, is not
a Klitical or party organization. No
Grange, if true to its obligations, can
discus, political or religious questions,
nor call political conventions nor nomi
nate candidates, nor evar discuss iheir
merits in its meetings.
Yet the prinociples we teach under
lie all true politics, all true statesman
ship, and, if properly carried out, w ill
Mtt mimlirr. But we mLL-t I
ih la iu miod that i oa ljji '
coming. a Grange member gives up
that inalienable riht and duty which
belongs to every American citizen, to
take a proper interest in the politics
of his country.
On the contrary, it is the right of
every member to do all in his power
legitimately to influence for good the
action of any political party to which
he belongs.
It is his dutv to do all he can in his
own party to put down bribery, cor
ruption and trickery; to see that none
but competent, faithful and honest
men, who will unflinchingly stand by
our interests, are nominated for all
positions of trust, and to have carried
out the principles which should always
characterize., every (JiOnge niemiK;r,
that the office should seek the man,
and not the man the office.
We acknowledge the broad princi
ple, that difference" of opinion is no
crime, and hold that, 'Progress to
ward tru;h is made bv difference of
opinion," while "the fault lies in bit
terness of controversy."
We desire a proper equality, equity
and fairness; protection f-r the weak,
restraint upon the strong: in short
justly distributed burdens, and justly
distributed power. Ihese are Ameri
can ideas, the very essence of Ameri
can independence, and to advocate the
contniryHM unworthy.mf the sons and
daughters of an American republic.
We cherish the belief that sectional
ism is, aud of right should, be, dead
and buried with the past. Our work
is fur the present and future. In our
agricultural brotherhood and its pur
poses, we shall recognize no North, no
South, no East, no West.
It is reserved by every Patron, as
the right by every freeman, to affili
ate with any party that will best car
ry out his principles.
OUTSIDE CO-OPERATION.
6. Ours being peculiarly a farmer's
institution, we cannot admit all to our
ranks.
Many are excluded by the nature
of our organization, not because they
are professional men, or artisans" or
lalorers, Init because they have nut a
sufficient direct interest in tilling or
pasturing the soil, or may have some
interest in conflict with our purjwse.
But we apjeal to all good citizens
for their cordial co-operation to a-sLst
in our elForte warJ reform- that
our
I mnhi the lrtst vestloe of
tyranny and
We hail the general desire for fra
ternal harmony, equitable comprom
ise, and earnest co-operation, as an
omen of our future success.'
CONCLUSION.
7. It shall be an abiding principle
with us to relieve any of our oppress
ed and sufft-ring brotherhood by any
, mejtUf at our COmmand.
Last, but nut leaat, we proclaim if"8 ii T ,v

The most striking change is that alter

cording to the old law, every Master
of a Subordinate Grange was a mem
ber of the State Grange, which made
that lody large, unwieldy and expen
sive. This is now obviated by ruling
down the basis of representation to
one delegate from each county, and,
consequently, instead of having one
thousand delegates, whose expenses
and per diem will have to be met, the
State Grange will have only about one
hundred.
