The meetings of the state granges and other agricultural organizations in various sections of New England bear evidence that agitation from the farmers' standpoint is not conflned to the Farmers' Alliance movement in the west and south, but is also active in New England. That the voice of the farmer is to be heard in the land more emphatically and generally than ever before is evidenced on all hands. Politicians and parties having an eye to the future caimot heed the warning too soon. Henry George is right as to his fundamental proposition that the land is the original basis of all values, and that economio legislation naturally starts trom thai basis, whatever we may think of the scheme which he founds thereon. - Boston Globe. The inembers of the Kansas Farmers' Alliance have fonned a stock company with a capital of $250,000, and propose to warehouse their grain and hold it for higher prices, advancing money at low interest to such farmers as need it.
