to organizing the party the convention
will select delegates to represent the
Territory in the Republican National con-
v%ention at Philadelphia.

move towards organizing any part

1T is hard to tell yet whether the po-
lltical divisions of the people Will be along
National party lines or not. There is a
great deal of talk of a native party, com

One of the great advantages OF the
Grange is that it may, at small cost to
each member, procure an assortment of
agricultural works upon almost every
department of farming, and these, with
the publications of the Boards of Agri-
culture and the Experiment Stations,
would make accessible to all the opin.
ions of the best authorities upon al,
most any subject. The individual farm.
er may not feel that he can afford to
purchase all of such books as he may
need, but If each member pays yearly
the price of one book he will have the
advantage of studying many. If es
says are to be read or lectures deliv'
cred by a member they can use those
books for such facts as they wish te
present, and they will speak with au
thority, while those whose experience
does not coincide with that of the writ
er, or who does not agree with the the
ories .dvaE.eed, should not be afraid te
