II propose to make only q few sugges-
tions TO YOU gentlemen" said Mr. Fair
child. 1T is well, primarily. to consider
that law has done little toward regulat-
ing the natural processes of your busi-
ness. That Will teach you the limit of
governmental law regarding the busi-
ness of the country--what it ought and
ought not to do. You will thus come 10
the conclusion that one of the things
over which government has least power
is the standard of value by which men
measure their property and their SER
vices. You will find that standards OF
value have preceded law, and that gov
ernments when wise and serviceable,
have learned what the standards OF the
people were and have embodied them in
law. When governments have not done
this, they have been mschievous: when
they have done IT, they have been help
full"

Representative Bailey of Texas,
has made statement concerning his
attitude towards Gen. Wheeler and
three other members of the house
who hold commissions in the yolun-
teer army. He quotes section E of
article 1 of the constitution: "That
no person holding any office under
the United States shall be a member
of either house during his continu-
ance in Office" and cites two cases
in which the house decided members
to have forfeited seats, one by &C
cepting a majors commission in the
District of Columbia militia, and
the other, by becoming colonel of
a volunteer regiment in the Mexican
war: Mr.. Bailey thus defines his
own position; 81 am one of those
who believe that it is the highest
duty of every man to obey the law
and to respect the constitution; and
| have little patience with the weak
suggestion that a member of con-
gress shall shrink from his sworn
duty because public sentiment would
allow brave and distinguished man
to hold two high offices, even though
it be against the constitution of our
country" Another phase of the
same question is now being dis
cussed in the senate-the constitu-
tional right of senators to serve as
government or presidential COM
missioners.

When Boss Plat was asked
whether anything else besides the
demands of his private business had
influenced Secretary Bliss to resign
the portfolio of Secretary of the In
terror, he could hardly keep his face
straight. He didn't answer the ques-
ton in words; he was expected to.
Bliss was taken into the cabinet to
head off demands made by Plat,
and he has been used for the same
purpose at various times since. So
Platt isn't grieving over his resigna-
ton. Indeed, it is altogether prob
able that Plat has done his part to
push along the petty annoyances
which have resulted in convincing
Mr.. Bliss that his private business
needs his attention. While it is not
likely that the resignation of Mr..
Bliss was brought about by any open
rupture, it was probably the culmi-
nation of dissatisfaction of thou
sand and one little things, no one of
which is important enough to be as
signed as reason for resignation. 1t
has been an open secret in Washing
ton that Mr.. Bliss didn't like his Job.

THE INDIANA STATE GRANGE.

In Annual Session at Indianapolis-Im-
portant Questions Being Considered.
The Indiana State Grange is holding
it's 18th annual session in the rooms Oc-
CT pied by the state board of agriculture,
in the state house. The meeting will
continue two or three days. About 30
members were in attendance at the
opening session Tuesday morning.
The grange is farmers organization,
which sprang up like mushroom 81
years ago, at the time of its organizs-
ton in Washington, ID. G.. For several
years it was powerful factor in COM
mercial affairs, as its membership at
that time jumped into the hundreds of
thousands, but politics crept into its
ranks, and its downfall was as sudden
as its rise. However the organization
is again on a substantial basis. with a
membership of 1000 or 1900 in the
state, about a third as many members
as it had at its hight.
Among the projects of the grange are:
To have direct dealings by the farmers
with the manufacturer and consumer,
so as to avoid the "middle man" as they
term the commercial traveller; to foster
cooperation, maintain laws, emulate
each other in labor, systematic work,
discontinue the credit and mortgage
system, and TO promote mental, moral
and social advantages, which will stim-
ulate harmony and brotherhood. Both
men and women are eligible to member
ship, but they must be identified with
the farm at the time Of their initiation.
Aaron j ones, of South Bend, is mas
ter of the state grange, and also of the
national organization. After few mi
nor preliminarles, the grange went in
to secret session.

The immediate cause of the death
of ex-senator Calvin S. Brice was
pneumonia. In order to reach home
he rode on a locomotive during the
late cold snap. The trip was pro-
tracted beyond schedule time several
hours. He contracted a cold, and
declined medical treatment on the
plea that his ailment didn't amount
to much and that he would soon get
over it. But he grew steadily worse
and was compelled to take to his
bed from which he never arose.
