The State Grange Honcrs Its
Faithful Officers.
Second Days Meetings Devoted to
Election and installation.
Committees Appointed-A Large Glass Takes
Sixth Degree in Evening.

The second day of the annual meet
ing of the Maine State Grange was a
busy one, but not too busy for the
Patrons to appreciate the perfect
weather. 1t was glorious dav. with
the skies as blue as in June and the
air just crisp enough to be bracinr
When not in City hall the delegates
improved the opportunity to do their
Christmas shopping. and crowds of
them thronged Water street, day and
evening. In the afternoon a large
party visited Togus.
The State Grange held three sessions
morning, afternoon and evening, as
usual, and the attendance was even
larger than on the opening day. The
main business of the day was election
of officers, and this resulted, as was eX-
pected, in the practically unanimous
reelection Of the officers who We're
chosen in this city in 1897. The officers
serve two years. and the popularity
and efficiency of the old board made
this election merely perfunctory
duty. In the evening the officers
were installed according to the beauti-
full ritual of the order. The commit
tees We're announced, during the morn
ing session, and their reports will be
one of the chief features of today's
work. Last evening, the impressive
sixth degree was conferred upon a
large class. 1t was busy day for the
gransers in the beautifully decorated
City hall, but they will be at their
posts again. this morning. ready for
the business of the closing day. To-
day, also. they will finish up their
shopping and then off for home tonight
and tomorrow morning. This evenings
closing love feast" will be the best

bered about sixty and all of them
were very quiet, it being hard to in
duce any of them to talk. They an
nounced that they had come to see
the rights of General Taylor re-
spected and that all was well. They
all seemed to be well able to uphold
in vigorous fashion whatever cause
they might champion, but gave no
evidence of a desire to look for
trouble.
Neither Gov. Bradley nor Adjt.
Gen. Collier was disposed to speak of
any arrangements they may have
made for the preservation of order
in case of trouble. Both declared
themselves confident that there
would be no trouble, feeling sure that
calm minds in both parties would
prevent any extreme steps by either
faction.
