UaI,al Master Workman Powderly'. Lecture
on Temperance.
General Master Workman Powderly, in
tho Philadelphia Journal of United Labor
publishes a temperance lecture addressed
to the members of the Knights of Labors.
It is entitled "ThoJustice of My Position,"
tiud is a reply to unfavorable criticism made
by certain of his correspondents on lectures
delivered by him recently in Boston and
Lynn, Mass. Mr. Powderly says:
"I know I am right. I know that in rc
fusing to oven touch a (Irop of strong drink
I was and am right. In refusing to treat
another to that which I dlo not believe to be
good for myself to drink 1 know (limt I amd
right. In not allowing a rumseller to gain
admittance into the order of the Knights
of Labor I know that 1 am right. In ad
vising our assemblies not to rent halls or
meeting rooms over drinking places I know
that I am1i11 right. I have (lone this from the
day my voice was first heard in the council
halls of our order. My position on the
question of temperance is right.. I a:n de
termnined to maintain it, and will not alter
it one jot or tittle. I know that in the or
ganization of which I am the head there
are many good men who drink, but they
would be better men if they did n't. drink.
Ten years ago I was hissed benuse I ad
vised men to let strong drink alone. They
threatened to rotten egg me. I have eon
tinued to advise men to he ten)crate, and,
though I have had no experience that wou1(I
qlualify me to render an opinion of the
ellicacy of a rotten egg as an ally of tih
ruim drinker, yet I would prefer to hiayi
my exterior decorated froi .ii inn it to base
with Ilie rankest kind of rotten e;s rather
than to allow one drop of liquid villainy to
pass may lips.
"Ten years ago the cause of temperance
was not s( So rrslectable as it is toi ay, lie
cause tlre were nolt So nu1iiy respectable
men and wotnen ad yoat ing it. It has
gained ground. It is gaining ground, and
alt hee:nuse men nrd wonien who believi in
it colt not ie brow be:iten or 'rightencd.

COME iNTO CAMP!
A Letter to the Farmers of the State from
Colonel Duncan.
By invitation the aummor meeting of
the society will convene upon the grounds
of the inter-State farmers' summer en
canipment to be hold at Spartanburg,
S. C., the first week in August next.
The society will hold its business meet
ing on Wednesday, the 3d. The regular
programme of essays and discussions by
the society will take place on Thursday,
the 4th, this day being assigned by the
arranging committee as iho State Agri
cultural and Mechanical Society Day.
As you are aware, it has been our cus
tom to have a representation of three
delegates from each county. While we
wish to urge upon the members to see
to it that each county sends a delegation
at the same time we call your attention
to the fact that this is a meeting of the
society, nd all memlers are entitled to
be present, and we hopo as many will
attend as possiblc.
This inter-Stato farmers' summer en
canipmont meeting has boon so thor
oughly advertised that it i unnecessary
to say more than to urge as many as
possible to be present. It will ho the
large.t concourse of farmers proper that
has ever assembled for the purpose for
which this meeting is organized; it will
be fraught with various matters of ma
torial interest to all farmers, and it is
eminently proper, if not absolutely nec
essary, that your society be fully repre
sented, it being the only "simon pure"
agricultural organization in the State
thiat. has for its object the discussion and
development of purely agricultural sub
jects, and of matters that apply to the
farmer's every-day life.
It is true we have the order of the
Patrons of Husbandry, under whoso
auspices this farmers' inter-State en
canpument is to be held. The Oranges
have their social and educational fea
tures, which carry along with it its lady
membership, and while we individually
think it the best and most perfect or
ganization in all its eluipments the farm
er has ever had, yet it has failed to keep
its hold on the rank and file of our
fat mers.
Then we have the farmers' movement
organizat,ion, which ias developed into
an organization whose prime object is to
look after and protect the farmers' po
litieti rights, to watch over and see that
such legislation as is necessary for liis
interest be secured, and to take charge
of all matters of a like character, which
all will readily acknowledge to bo pre
eminnctly prop>er. But never before in
the litstory of our agricultural interest
has there 1een more need of a vitalizing
current than at this time. Farmers are
day 1by day being aroused to the fact
that. they, too, must be progressive.
This is the age of less acres and a greater
proctaet from theni. improvements in
imlleinents, iin cultivation, in seeds, and
in all kiutds of tarni etiuipments; and
where will the fanrirs looking for this
vitalizing current if not in t,ho State Ag
ricultirat and Mcclhanical Society?
lor the pist twenty years, sinceo your
reor;anization after the war, your so
ciet.v has been doing a good work, Ioth
i. I.: o discussion of agricultural subjects
at iur' siuniuer meetings, as well as by a
gene 'ral (1 isplay of ti higs aptp)rintiuiung to

it w i ibe only natural, after all spas

furmers to turn to your society to in

tural watch tower. Therefore we would

A Boston girl cane over to Now
lork. She amused herself very well for at
overal days, among her other leasures h
neluding the beautiful d isplay of ciis- a
uthemums atCosmopolitan ll. Shel
was delighted with it. The snleindid "
hooks of snowy and lii-coioreti 1C
)lOOmS and the now Ja)anest sectid(l
ings that look as if nature had copied A
hem from decorations on Japanese d
ars, and the clean, fresh, curious per
umes fillod her cultured soul so full of
tentimont that it bubbled over for the
)enefit of a New York man. lie cano
;o call soon after her return from the
lower show. lie was a charming
roung person, who never by any aCei
lent polluted his person with any art- a
1o manfactured in this country. lie l
was turned out complete from top to toe
in English goods, and his gait on the
avenue filled beholders with the wildest
awe and delight, it so closely copied the !
true thoroughbred stride. 'the import
ant details of dress had occupied his 1
walking hours so closely that he had I
found but little time to unbend his mind c
over a book, and other matters even
more important had escapcd his atton
tention, among them the flower show, r
which he happened not to h:ave heard of.
'I've just come from seeing the chrys
anthemums," said the enthusiast ic
young woman from Boston; "ani, (O!
it was such a treat. I never enjOVcd
anything so much in my life. Ilave you
been yet?"
"No,'' he drawled out loud, thinking
to himself, "What the deuce is the irl
talking about, anyhow '' After rapid
but profound reasoning he cane to the
conclusion that being a lioston wIonI
and addicted to literature, the tling th:it
she had been to was soinothig par tak
ing of an intellectual nat ure, mal proba
bly scientilic, judging from the loen al
unpronouncea1ble 11nme. So lie re
marked lightly that really he ''dldn't
go much into that sort of thing n w -it
was out of his line, too deep entirely for
him."
''ho lBoston girl stared. ''What do
yon mean, sir? Chrysanthemums too
deep)?"
''\"elI, von know,'' said the Iiapl's;
youth, put i ng his foot deeper in his
mouth every time he opened it, 'that
one has to do such an awVful 1 ot of
realing to keep upO with these scieitilie
things, anud for my part I never cnjey
them unlless I em quite up on lhe .ulb
ject they're talking about.'' lie felt he
was getting skillfully over a ditiieuIlt
qlucstionl and continued, with graceful
self conlidonce, to addti a few delicate
and artistic touches to his position.
'"Vhcu I go to this sort of thing." lie
declared, '"1 get works on th e suiject
and read up thoroughly, so that I can
follow the speaker with intelligent in
terest.; but I'm too awfully bul;y just
noW to be able to do that, and so I cil
the Nineteonthi ('eutmv 'l ub, amiiit the
Cirvsanthemun, and all the rest of it.''
TIie Boston girl gasped a few tiies
and then said she supposed tb at lie
really must work awfully hard, and it
really was no end of a pity he had had
to ive up his studiis. blut before she
went back to Boston she told the story,
and the young nin hains gone out in the
country to stay some time with his sis
ter. The Boston girl says she thinks
New York men are ''delicious, s imply
dcliciou'.".'-N. Y. Wlor1d.
In a Battle-Panorama Studio.
''he central pllatform is, of course, the
sta(npoint from which visitors will view
the panorama,-andh therefore the artikts
are obliged to go to It frequently, as the
painting nears compIIletion, mi ordecr to
observe the effect and progress of their
work.
'[his, too, is the p)lace of conference,
and despite the signs oif "No Adminit
lance,'' withiin and without, viaitors are
frequent, and usually wvelcome, Thlesi
visitors aro often veteran soldiers who
took part in the action represenited, amnd
-who often make hlpjfuil suggest ionis.
T1he ar-mv stories that are told oni the
central platform, would, if collected,
make a prodigious volume. Thle floor
-of the platform is chialked and rechalk
ed, some referring to the panoranii ii
self, but inore to il lust rate occuirreinces
up~on other fiels. '[le strong piew irail
surrounding the platform ispnildall
over with kiindreid decoirationls, whlik
scraps of papor, ulponi which are inwmo1
rand Ia of intcidlent s, and a variety of dat a,
as well as namies and addresses, are
pinnedl to the convetienut timber with
thum b-tacks.
The artist paints stcndily, every hiili
a vidual being maiinly occuphied in perfeet
ing his own work, thou'h never he.itaut
,ing to ask or extenmd a id in some speclal
S direction. One artist, for imsaice,I has
an excellent figtire of ia mounted (oficer,
all complete excepting thle poitriait,
a photograph for whi chi is pinnmed to thle
- canvas. While this artist goes to
Sstrengthen a line of battle, ainot her
one will rap)idly paint an a<hl nrable
portrait for thle i ncomiplete figu~re. Soonl,
another brush is busy withl the horse,
while another a rtist call s for some spee
inaI saddle andl bidhle to be leeoughti to
the platform that he may paeint the trap
p)inigs.
Now, look at thle bock of the photo
graph which is piniineil to the canvas -
a faded carte de visite of a young ollieer,
upon01 a suhp of paper we readc the follow
