News of the Oranges,

The regular meeting of Waldo County
Grange was held Tuesday, Aug. 18th, with
Stockton Grange Of Stockton Springs.
Thirteen oranges We're represented. The
usual business of the session was transacted
and class instructed in the fifth degree.

tion and the silver question was discussed
by Daniel Dyer and Crawford S. Griffin
The next meeting will be with Equity
Grange, Belfast, September 22d, at which
time the officers will be elected and in
stalled.
Granite Grange held its regular meetings
through haying with good attendance and
good interest. We have two hundred MEM
bers and more coming. l can see the effects
of the Grange in our community. We visit
more, have better society, are better united
and take more interest in the community
through the Grange, We have good hall
through the Grange, and l think it helped
get new schoolhouse. Although the town
built it, yet we think the people We're more
anxious through the Grange. Anything that
tends to build up community is help, and
when we pull together few become strong.
In union there is strength, and that is one of
the principles of our order. We are bound
together by brotherly love and will work
for the good of mankind. 4 PATRON.

The undergraduates i'm Belmont.

To TIE EDITOR OF The JOURNAL: 1t may
be of interest to know that there was a small
gathering, mainly of Dem-P Pops, assembled
in Mystic Grange Hall in Belmont on Mon
day evening, Aug. 10th, to listen to speeches
by Mr.. F. 1. Wilson and Mr. F. w. Brown
of Belfast After the usual presentation
speech by the Dem-Pop. candidate for State
senator Mr.. Wilson caught his breath,
gathered himself together, and began speak
ing. His remarks were mainly upon the
silver question, and when he had spoken for
about 80 minutes he had not said anything.
Then he said: "Now, in 1873 when silver
was demontized. Well, Mr.. Editor, that is
enough of that Now let me educate Mr.
Wilson little. The Websterian definition
of demonetized is to deprive of current
value. Now let Mr.. Wilson explain how
silver was demonetized by the act Of 1873.
Of Mr.. Brown we will say but little. He
was the prettiest fellow in the crowd and
was looking as bright as fifty ty-three-cent
silver dollar. Now, Mr.. Editor, Mr.. Wilson
should speak in Belmont once more this fall,
and if he will we feel confident that every
man in town. with the exception of the DEM
Pop. candidates for State Senator and Coun-
ty Commissioner and two or three disgrun-
tied c-greenback-populist cranks,
will vote for Mckinley this fall.

The New Shoe Factory Project.

The new shoe factory project is progress

way. The papers for permanent stock sub

spoke Monday night in Blue Hill to an

POLITICAL POINTS. 1t has been decid-
ed that Mr.. Bryan will enter actively into
the campaign about September LIST, and
continue on the stump until election. To
obtain needed rest he will spend the next
two weeks at some quiet place, not yet
decided on. His visit to Maine will be
postponed to the latter part of September
when Bryan will make number of
speeches in New England. .... First Editor
Singerly's Philadelphia Record bolted the
Chicago platform and ticket, and now
Editor Singerly in person, in his official
position as Democratic elector, shows
his disgust by repudiating reputation.
Mr.. Singerly has certainly done his full
share in exposing the shams of the Popo-
cratic campaign. .... Mr.. Bryan's 'effort of
his life'' seems to have disappointed the
Democrats and pleased the Republicans.
..... The gold Democrats of Massachusetts
have issued a call for State convention
of sound money men at Horticultural
hall, Boston, August 25th, to nominate
delegates to Indianapolis and choose
Presidential electors. Bourke Cochran
signifies willingness to meet Candidate
Bryan in joint debate. .... The Boy Orator
of the Platte claims to have made more
speeches in one day, thirty in number, on
his trip from Lincoln, than any other pub
lie man ever made in the same length of
time, but the claim is not well founded.
The record on that score is still held by
Mr.. Depew, who made forty-two speeches
in single day on a special train, with
Mr.. Blaine, in 1SS4.... The Popocrat strife
continues. The bitter contention as to
where headquarters shall be located was
referred to Mrs. William j. Bryan, the
wife of the candidate. She decided in
favor of Chicago thus endorsing the view
of Altgeld and Tillman and overturning
the most important campaign plans laid
by Chairman Jones and Senator German.
This has caused a tremendous rumpus.
Chairman Jones is furious and Senator
German will not be a member of the Cam
paign Committee, which now must be re-
cast.
