While the Grange is nonpartisan,
that is, not tied to the apron strings
of any political party, yet it is a mis-
take to assume that it has no connec-
ton with politics. To succeed it must
follow the methods of business men.
They work with all political parties
and so must We They want certain
measures enacted so they have lobby
lists working for them in Congress,
they write personal letters to their
legislators and induce as many promi-
nent men as possible to do the same;
they draw up petitions, write commu-
nications to newspapers, pay editors
to work for them and keep up an un-
ceasing warfare until their ends are
accomplished. Their forces are not
as numerous as ours but they are bet
ter armed, disciplined and equipped.
Until we fight in the same way, know
what we want and ask for it unitedly
We cannot expect success.-R. ". Ed

1t requires an abundance of pluck
tomake success of life under adverse
circumstances, but when success has
been gained its joys are replete with
an inward satisfaction over victories
gained which is totally unknown to
those who have no struggles in this
direction. As with life, so it Is in q
measure with the Grange Success
cannot be obtained without many dis
couragements. Some of the best
Oranges in the land, subordinate and
State, are those that have encoun-
tered severe trials during which their
lives have almost gone out. But the
pluck and energy of the faithful few
kept them in existence and infused
such new life and vigor as enabled
them to become strong and abun-
dainty prepared for future activity
and usefulness.

Organization is the farmers only
hope. He cannot expect to cope sue
cessfully withother classes except upon
an equal footing. The Grange, with
its complete and symmetrical organi-
zation, not only places him on an
equality with other classes, but by
the numerical superiority of farm
ers it gives him the opportunity for
correspondingly superior advantages.
Will farmers be wise and take advan-
tage of these?

PATRONS OF HUSBANDRY
MORTIMER WHITEHEAD.

The official year of the Nationa
Grange ends September 3Oth, and In
that Just closed the National Secreta-
nv, John Trimble. of Washington, ID.
c., reports that 1913 new Oranges were
organized in all parts of the United
States. This is just fifty more new
Oranges than last year The new
wear. October 1st, commenced well
with two new Oranges reported on
that day. Besides these new organl-
cations, hundreds of Oranges that be-
came dormant in the reaction that
came after the first wave of excite
ment regarding the Order as passed
over the land have been reorganized
during the year, and in many States
the net gain in membership in twelve
months counts up into thousands.
And all this in year of Presidential
election, when political parties EN-
plov every means to excite the peo-
pie and draw their attention from
their regular pursuits and interests.
And ii goes TO prove that farmers gen
orally are coming TO understand that
they themselves must protect their
own interests, and that it can only be
accomplished through a compact or
ganization, such as they find in the
Grange with its twenty-five years OF
experience. Every indication points
the way to still larger growth in mum
bers and popularity for this Oldest
and best of farmers organizations
during the coming year.
Many farmers have but a faint idea
of the influence and power that the
class to which they belong possesses.
They know that, single-handed, they
are of little account in their town or
county, and they apparently have no
influence whatever This being true,
what influence could they expect to
exert in State or National legislation,
even if they should make an effort?
The answer is, manifestly none. There
are but few men of any class who
possess ability or character enough to
make them an individual power, and
in rare instances does this become
dominant and never permanent. An
iniudiciouS act, or sentence incau-
tiously uttered, may turn the popular
current in another direction, and the
individual power Influences gone.
The strength of farmers is not in in
dividuals alone, but in the concentra-
ton of energies that may be directed
to specific purposes with such an effect
as to insure their attainment. When
this is done, the farmers, although
individually pOwerless, become NOV
ing power in the land. Conservative
intelligent, law-abiding, engaged in
an industry upon which all others
depend, and embracing a majority of
the voting population Of the country,
they should be enabled to make their
influence felt in the enactment and
execution of wholesome and judicious
laws for the government of the peo-
pie. How to effect this concentra-
ton of energies and consequent influ-
ence in this direction, and hold it in its
proper place, is very important ques-
ton. For more than twenty years
this problem has been before the peo-
pie in direct form, and during the
last half of this period, and more es-
pecially for the past four or five years
it has seemed as if it might be solved
in such way as to produce the most
gratifying results. 1t is the Grange.
