Grange Department
s. L. WILSON. Editor.

At this season Of the year tb
farmers are so engaged in thei
farming interest that they hardly
have time to think Of any thing no
connected with the farm, but yol
must not neglect your public du
ties. If you do, the teachings o
the Grange have failed in YOU
case. The education obtained il
the Grange will make men publ,
spirited. Then dou't let your du
ties 20 the chureh-to the school =
10 the political parties to which
you belong, and especially your
Subordinate Grange meetings, be
neglected. You may think under
the press Of business in the fields,
that you havn't the time to attend
to your other duties, but the fact is,
you havn't time TO not attend to
them. The conventions ofthe two
great national political parties
will soon meet, and the congress
ional Districts of the State will
soon be called upon &c fix the time
and place for the naming of the
men who are to represent the State
in the National Legislature for the
incoming two years. In view OF
these things you must recognize
the fact that you have important
work before you outside of your
fields. Your duties as citizens in
your respective parties are plain
as taught in the Grange. You are
expected to do all you can in your
own party organization, to have
such men placed in Office as will
stand unflinchingly by the indus
trial interest of the country.
The principles of the order do
not bind you to vote for a man be-
cause he is a farmer, but in your
own political party You are expect
ed to select from among your par
~ co-laborers men who will best
carry out your views. Well in
formed Changers will not submit
to any restrictions as TO their
rights as citizens. As means OF
raising the agricultural people to
a higher plain, to place them high
er in the estimation Of the whole
people, it is right and proper that
competent and we'll qualified men
of that class should be placed in
position Of honor and trust. The
Grange does not advocate, as has
been charged, the monopolizing OF
all the officers of the country, all
they ask is a rand equitable pro.
potion OF them. 1t is not the pur.
pose of the order to tear down any
but to protect their own interests
and that of the whole country, in
order that general prosperity may
be enjoyed by all. Then farmers
don't neglect your public duties
but when your respective political
parties are called to attend to the
work before them this year, go out
TO your meetings and do your part
Don't stay at home and let few
attend to the business as best they
can, and and then raise a complaint
that the work was done in the in
terest Of this or that man, or thii
or that measure. 1t will be toe
late then.

Vote as You Think.

At the head of these columns is Civ
en- this week the nominees of all the
parties. Certainly among them all can
be found men of such character for each
office that no voter need be deprived of
his suffrage. But to do this very few
can vote the straight party ticket. 1t
is a sign of improved public opinion
and growing intelligence that the men
who stick to the caucus nominees, good
or bad, are growing beautifully less.
The army of thinking men is growing
larger and stronger every year who
will vote for the best men regardless of
politics. When political leaders as
certain this fact the best men will be
put in nomination on all tickets. Until
that time men who observe their free
mans oath will be obliged to scratch
the ticket that the caucus gives them.
Politicians may talk and bosses may
threaten, but there is no emergency
unfit candidate or one who does not
properly represent him or his views.
This is admitted by the better men in
all the states and it is largely acted on
in other states in county, town and
municipal elections. A man who now
votes the straight party ticket, regard
less of the character of some of the
candidates upon it, is too narrow mind
ed and bigoted for these times.

ing Immediate legislative action con-
ferring upon the executive the power

merchandise in bond across Grover the
territory of the United States to or
from Canada" Coming at this time
the message, strong as it is, looks like
a campaign document, and such papers
as the Boston Herald and the entire
republican press, of course, view it in
this light. Mr.. Blaine has to reply to
the message and in his reply he makes
the astounding declaration that the
whole fishery question is only "a dis
pute between Halifax and Gloucester
that can easily be settled on the
ground" Ye gods and little fishes

The CALIFORNIAN Supplement.

The republican state committee have
furnished our Vermont readers today
with supplement containing Con-
gresham McKinley's tariff speech at
Atlanta last week. Mr.. Mckinley rep
resents the state of Ohio in Congress
and was chairman of the committee OF
resolutions at the republican national
convention in Chicago in June. While
the Caledonian does not believe in as
high a protective tariff as the republic
can platform outlines, yet we willing
ly present to our readers this supple
ment as containing the strongest, fair
est and most honest high tariff speech
of the present campaign. If any of
our readers want an antidote we refer
them to the speeches of Mr.. Thurman.
