Special Dispatch to The Chicago Tribune, 81, Louis, Aug. 27.—Thero was held near Brownsville to-day the largest and most enthu- sisatic meeting of farmera o far gathored in thia Btato. Tho number presont is estimated at from 10,000 to 12,000, The crowd assembled in » ploas- ant .grovo mnear Bweot Springs, about a mile from the villago., Tho platform crocted for the speakors was docorated with the usual symbola of the Patrons. A fow mon wore pres- ent who have beon active in politics in past years. The Grangors for a radins of thirty miles around tbio placo wore well representod.

Mr, Thomas R, Allen, Grand Mastor of the State of the Patrons of Husbandry, muh: 8 very sensible spoech. Ho said the Grangors' movo- ment had hitherto boen lsughod at, but naw was aseuming formidable ~proportions. Tho farmers h not in 0 past boon roporly represonted, and had less in- uonce than any other class, He thought, therofare, that the time had come when thoy should rnse up and assert their power, In order to do this effoctually it was necessary for thom to act in concert. A National Organization Board had boen ostablished - in every sohool district, and the farmers wero taking hold of the movement in earnost. Somo twouty Btates bad alroady effocted Btate organizations, sud gome eight or teu moro Btatos would soon follow euit. Thoso organia- tions moant mmnlhlnF, Thoy moant that tho farmers Liad the skill to advise and plan, and the integrity and good sensoe to stick to and perso- vore in what tney undortook. Thoy had no anotagonism with any legitimate movemont, Thoy had beon aconwed otting up a vast monopoly, and that they ‘ovtag) []Dll:, kg, dostroy certain logitimato ocoupa~ tions and businessos, ‘Ihose who mado such au- sortlons as thoso, knew nothing about tho move- mont, They did not propowo to interfere in sny logitimato employment. They propored to” mct In harmony with overy ocoupa- tion, The very urchina and boot-biacks of the city wero orgauized, and why. should not the farmors? ‘fho farmora had soou iho ton- denoy of the concontrationof tho vast wealth of tho "nation, of & few mon, & few great soulloss monopolios that wore grinding them to powdor, It was thia they wore contonding sgainst. - They were going to Dreak the monopolics, much as some paople might laugh ot them. They wanted to soo & fair lng equal distribution of the wealth of the land tho pooplo who produca it, ~Tho B"r'::“m- orgun[’xnlon wl:a foundod on ublioan roolsely. - similar onrlnelplu, 1 ‘onrllx‘n on which the Nuuvnlvaovommvnt oy “ticiang_out of the movement. basod. Tho firat and leading fonture was moral, soclal, intollootual, and matorinl benofits, bo- caugo it waa soon that the agricultural olnssos of the country, in- order to carry out their plan, muat bocomo moro intellectual. They had beon allowing othors to do thoir thinking quite long onougl, Anothor grent fosturo i tho roliable and uroful crap roports which it was proposed to ostablish, Inch Grango was to roport to its ro- spoctive Booretary. Mo was to sond thoso roports to tho Hiato Secrotary, who was to forward thom to tho National Boorotary, A bank wns to bo startod and warohousos Duilt, #o that if a farmer was compolled to _moll his produce ‘at & ruinous rato Lo might draw from thobank what money tho produce was socurity for, and loavo it in tho warchouse until tho prica roso, Br. Allon’s spoech wan rocolved with much on- thusissm. The Grand Mnstor of the Stato Gran, nlnnthmu}mml, sonsible man, not only practically familinr with his cnlllnr, ‘but more than ordinarily cultivated and educated, Bonator Strother was fntroduced by the Hon, Diok Colling, of Lafayotto County. Ho spoke briofly, Tio said, though not a farmer, ho was in sympathy with tho farmors; and ho advised thom to bo caroful or tho rascally polit- feal hnckse would got hold of them and uso thom for thoir own Imrpoms. I tho farmors had not thelr rights t was bocause thoy nover asked or ssserted thom.
