In response to your request to
hear from the Masters Of Oranges.
haveto say that in this section, the
Oranges have been on the decline,
many Oranges have become dormant
and ineffective, yet there are many
good patrons and matrons scattered
all over the country, who have an
abiding faith in the principles of the
noble order. 1 am proud TO say that
my Grange Is alive and has a deter
mination to live on, we have had 10
suspend many for nonpayment OF
lucs, and have received many Others
" application and demit from
lef'unct Oranges, and are receiving
some by initiation. We number AZ
members in good standing, good and
tue grangers many of us are hardly
pressed financially, money made ex-
tiemely scarce by the destruction OF
Our cotton crops by the boil worm
and the very low price for the little
they left us. i hope to send you

needs of the Grange here is an ener-

The Granger Proposition" and
Their Significance. a

When the question for calling a
Convention TO frame a new constitu-
ton was before the people, no class
took such an active part in favor OF
the Convention as did the Changers.
One Of the principal reasons was the
inequality OF the burdens OF govern
ment, in that as n class, the farmers
paid more than just proportion OF
taxes to carry on the government.
Therefore the agricultnrists with
great unanimity, voted "For Con-
vention !" believing that agriculture
would be placed on an equality with
other callings, and that all classes
should share alike in taxation. AT
an early stage Of the Constitutional
Convention the State Grange met,
and among other propositions passed,
BY that body was one setting forth
THAT all revenue for the support OF
