What Is the mattnr with this^rorld, an; I tew I Nothing doc will surprise you so much as actual facto with which you inav not bo acquainted^ and which show rosuta which you previously thought to be materially different, and which show that something, somewhere .in the economy of society, thero is a great weakness in the organization of governments, or else there are a great deal of selfishness and meanness iu the worsViypes, such, we thiuk, is shown by the facts and figures as follows: Hy calculation you will find that 29,010 men can stand upon one acre of ground, contaiuii g 43,500 square feet, each man occupying oue and oue-haif square feet. \ That 18,535,601 fNnen, who require each one and half iquaro feel, can stand upon ouO mile square of ground con- * laming 27,878,401 square tect. That the population ol the whole earth In 1881 was over 1,400,000,000, or more exactly, 1,439,145.300 people, who could stauil upon 49,557 34-100 acres of laud, allowing one and a half feet square to each person. • That the world's population iu 1881 of 1,439,145,300ci n find standing room upon 77 43-100 square miles^kd that if all the population of the glooe were cinbnhncd-and stood up like Egyptian mummies, they! would have ample room, *nd would fall considerably short of occupying nine miles square of territory, which iu extent, compared with the whole, would be hut a large slice of Pilko county. Now, little ohl Delaware, the “Diamond t^tate," also the “Hlue lieu Stale," as she was known in revolutionary times,; because Capt. Cald^Ll, of lltfi-Pirt t Dele ware regiiucut, said in ifi>cakiii{j ol1 it "tliat'uo lighting cock could lie ti ue game unless its mother was n blue hen.” The name of the State, however, was derived from l/onl l»e La Ware, governor ot Virginia, who iinfeied-tho bay in 1610. Delaware lias three counties, and her area is wlmt w • arc after.

Now a mile (square coutaius 27,878,400 square (Wt, amt will a lion! gland- I tug room fur 1 ><,585,600 men.

So if the ullie pianola, Vulcan, Mercury, Venu*. (lurs, the planetoids, Jupiter, Saturn t’rauus and Neptune,; were all the <anie size as the earth I and had the same population, the lit-' tje Statu of Delaware baapstaiidiug room for all tjieir inhabitants, includ- i ing that of the earth, and over seven- j leenplaia-Uol the same capacity whose ; j opulatiun could aland upright upon 1 ne bosom of little Delaware, It cau ! uirord standing room for 27.37 limes! l ie population of the earth. Now lake Taluks and Lockhart; townships, Pike county, and you will j find they contain 78 square miles.I N ultipiy this by 18,585,GOO, the uum-J bnr of men w ho can stand on a square mile, ami you have the enormous i inimher of 1,449,676,800 men. But; Ute population of the whole earth In , 1831 was only 1,439,145,300, or not' enough peopilo to fill those two town- j ships, and yet the people iu those townships sometimes think they are crowded. There is laud euough in those two townships unoccupied, to fc* .1 and clothe the eutire population of I he State of Iudiana, and yet there are people out there who have not' acc»s to land enough to raise ample | fond for tie Mine Ives and family, aud cve -y man who does lav claim to a litth ground, is taxed to death, and when he goes to exchange his products for those of the loom or other! mat* line he is taxed all the way from i 1 to '300 per cent, for what lie gets. Se muc i for protection made |>ossible by mon>poly--trusts--or, as the BlameHarrison idea has it, "private affairs with which President Cleveland nor any private citizen has any particular right to iu erfere.” That was the assertion of Mr. BUius, you will rememler. Out-side of our financial welfa •e and that ol the people we Jiave no interest in this mstter. The facts are startling. The monopoly iu land.lt not a scrap ss compared to the monopoly in other things—in manufactund a -tides tor example.

r. M. B. A. Ed. Democrat: 1 uotioe two articles— one in the Felersburg Preen end on# in the Petersburg New#—concerning the AlUauoe, a* thone papers called it. They think they are putting hot shot into ua. There is no such organisation as the Alliance. There is an organization called the Fanners’ Mutual Benefit Association. Now, as those papers have been shooting at us, I will shoot a shot or two; and, if I get my gun pointed toward them, they need not dodge, for it is loaded with only a lead pencil. Krebs dedares there are none belonging to the organization but broken-down politicians and they are Democrats—a lie from the start, for there are mauy men belonging to the order as good as Garfield appointed from the Press office to attend to affairs out In the West, or was ever horse-whipped by a woman, or returned to Petersburg for little Ben to engage at Washington or somewhere else, or to be cow-hided—which? As for the "dead-beats” in our order, we take none, especially of the type of Krebs and Em. They are fanner# from all parties and churches that we take into the order, all men of honor who make their living "by the sweat of their faces," and not men made by sucking the public teat, or whose rich dad came to his rescue and bought him a printing office, and who has never done any work harder than standing on the streets studying scandal and occasionally writing such., andsvith this and his scissors and poorlypaid help, getting out a snide sheet which be calls a newspaper. Bah, come off! The fun he poked at the honest farmer will not prove a benefit to him. Ue puts inc in miud of one of those valeutines which represented a drummer with nothing to do but to stand around the streets with bis bighbeelod boots on, and with a loug-range cigar in bis mouth. It would be a good idea te put him on a city paper with bia large brain, if the buys would not seal him upand send hip to acme uuforluuute female for a valcqUue. it would make no difference to Em. b3£tbe poor girl would be in a worse fix than lire man who drew au elephant at ajottery, But Krebs implies that the farmers have no right to organize or baud themselves together against those who band against ua. 1 suppose that if any merchants "bust? we will be blamed for it. But our lucrcbaala will uot bust. We will stick to tbeiu "aud don’t yon forget It!" Em says for us to read a certain merchant’s advertisement If we do nut think be sells goods cheap. That same mercuant bas got richer than half a dozen of us. We suppose be did it by selling goods so cheap— got ocher than half a dozen of usl All in a few years! "Come eff, Em I" Four hundred per cent, is w hat we are tired of. If a man pays filly cents for a bat, why not aell for some reatenable profit, say fifty-five or sixty If >2.00 for s pair o! boots, why not sell them tor 12.20 or some reasonable profit after cost of carriage, ere., b»s been added? 1 suppose K. snd E. sre engaged to fight ua. Ail right. Hole up your sleeves and jwko oul your lying tongues and come on. Well,, every l«dy knows that a farmer never raised anything and got his own price for It, though these raeu would make us think so, and would claim at the same lime that the F. M. H. A. Is a political institution. Nov,’ If ycu want ty*~poke politics at ua we will just say (bat louder Grover we got adollera bushel for wbsjst and a corresponding good price for corn; but as soon as your Bennie got in, w heat went down ts Toe a bushel with corn st iio. Come off, Krebs, dou't poke politics at us. Where do you get ail you have? Don't ;it grow? and dou’t some one have to toil for it * If you do uot like such people, take the less of ua, and we will tell you w beu we are June reading your pa|«r, Vou would do well to "let up." As to our attending to other peoples’ business, that is a lie. We will attend to our own business and we dq not need Krebs or Harrell to help us do lit. Let them attend U> their business, let ours alone, and we will come up suuiing. Uwas in an early day that God made Adaui a ad put him to farming. It was uot many hundred years from tbeu that the people were In bondage and bad to have .Moses lead them out while Faro and bis host were drowned. Time went on till fleeing to ibis new country was resorted to, to esoa|« the bondage of tbs money kings of the old world, but it was uot till Washington rose up as a second Moses aud lead tbe people from bougage. We are again iu bondage, and tbe usurers and money kiuge are our bond-holders. They nnp tbe money blood from every toi ler in tbe land, and few men to-day enjoy Itieir owu earning. And let me here ank tbe editors of the Tress aud tbe News what right one man has to reap the beueflu ol another man's Ubor ? To be a drone to eat up wbat tbe worker earns? The farmers know llieir condition, and five old farmers got together and surmised the ptau of a Farmers' Mutual Benefit Association, and on the 9th oi March. l&*7, thirteed good old farmers set tbe plau iu operation. Now we number 70,000, but our enemies say we will not amount to anything. Wbat do they light us for then? It is the very thing the farm•r should belong to. Wbat we want lis to effect some plan of exchanging our prod acts for other products. 1 suppose the farmers of tbe U. S. w Ul raise enough this year to do them for five years. But what' good will it do if they cannot exchange it for othnr products at a fair profit in exchange? Vihat good,would Jay Gould’s money do him lif be could not do anything with it but eat it? If be can't eat It nor exchange it for fond, tbeu be will bate to swap some of bla railroads for meat and bread. Consider this matter before you make battle against us. Look on tbe badge of our lodge and you will see a bee-hire, tboeiublem of tbe true work. Beside*, Uie bee carries iu weapon of defense. So do we, aud, like the bee, we use it upon only those who stuck us. There are enough good men in tb*t F. M. B. A. to defend the cause. IfK.andSE. wants to see themselves in the soup let them go on. If not, let them shut up. They commenced the fight, we will end It. There are but two of them, there are eleven hundred of ns. I’ll be on bands whenever the cause needs my aervioe, aud will be assisted by the w hole eleven hundred members of the , F. M. B. A.

How wilt the editor of the Press break the uews to his readers that he has a government appointment after making assertions that he was not an applicant for any such a position. Did Uarrlsou seek him out and thrust the houor upon him? And will the people bavo suspicions as to his veracity after liis naked assertions have bceu made ? Aud will the people not suspicion that the News was correct iu its assertions? In short, what will the people think ? Arrau claiming that the F. Id. B. A. is a political organisation and having it conclusively proven that no politics belongs to that institution, the Press is determined that the association shall be partisan and has engaged Junius to write to the member of1 the association on political topics. Such parties should remember that the farmer* an: not fools, and that tinkering with their business may bcavery nn profit able undertaking. The F. M. B. A. has an eye ou designing politicians. And so Moutan* will come Into the Uuion as a Democratic State. That's all ri£ht!

Missouri has adopted the Australian system of electious, hur new law being modeled npon the Andrews law, passed in this State last spring. Detnociatic legislatures all over the country r.ro passing stringent election laws. Republican legislatures, on the contrary, are refusing to take a siugle step in the direction of ballot reform. This strikiugly illustrated the difference iu the spirit and tendencies of the two great parties. Gov. IIovkt, bitter partisan that he is, thinks every law passed by the last legislature unconstitutional, or that he can knock them out by virtue of his office. The Supreme Court knocks the Governor out when he gets a little too familiar and construes the laws and tries to run every thing to suit himself aud party. The editor of the Evausville Journal has on war paint, aud is after P. B. Posey. The Oakland Enterprise suggests a consulship to quiet hie wrath. The preleusious of civil service aud (lie practice of the boodle system seem to work bad together. They are welcome to ail the pleasure they get out of it. Some of (ho court house ring genlicuieu have beeu trying to palm otf the blame for the condition of high taxes onto the Democrats. That scheme won’t work. They are not Democrats who stand between the pluuderer aud the public crib. It will not be long till meu vote more Intelligently thau they do now. A proper study by each voter of his condition as compared to that ef other men iu the same and different occupations will bring this about. The presents Mrs. Urorer Cleveland receives from people of note, aud the compliments her liusbaud receive# show iu what high estimation those noted persons are held. Boys uuder sixteen years old cannot legally buy tobacco. Venders of the weed will do well to look closely to whom they sell tobacco. StXTEEs'ycar^ldToT'uo tR>acco. A Dtssorery or Interest to Geologists. Evansville Journal, i Richmond, Iud„ May 27.—James P. Singleton is the discoverer of a specimen of social interest and importance to geologists on account of the deposit iu which it was found. Whatever the petrified form is, it has the resemblance of an eel, and was found in some Silurian deposits ucar the Ohio line, between this city aud New Paris. The part recovered by him Is about twenty inches long and hi seven pieces, the largest au inch aud a half iu diameter. Part of the tail is lost.' The back is corrugated in a kind of spiral fluting that probably wouud once or twice around the body. Iu plarc of the stomach is a hollow containing a few dog-teeth crystals. The Ijead is |>erlcct, showing both the pointed mouth aud the-eves utt the rounded head. It is a wonderful specimen, aud its counterpart is not described by any of the writers on this subject. But the strangest tiling is that anything of this sort should exist iu the Lower Sulurian, whicli is sup|>oscd to contain nothing in form of reptiles or fi*h. Mr. Siuglctou will ; take it to the State Geologist, at Indianapolis, for examination, at au early date. If it is uew to him lie will send it to Prof. Hall, of New York.

Everybody took an interest iu the preparation of the dinner which was one ot the very best.
