A Wise Suggestion.

To try to set the farmers organiza-
ton at the rather formidable task of
correcting all the real or supposed
evils Of our social system, says the
Country Gentleman, is about as judi
cious proceeding as If the Methodist
or Presbyterian members or the Repub-
licans or Democrats, for that matter,
should want to dragoon the whole Or
der into the ranks of their particular
churches or political parties. Let the
grange stand for agriculture and ag-
ricultural interests, ever ready not only
to defend these from attack in any
quarter, but actively to promote every
measure that Is for their benefit, at the
polls, in the state and national legisla-
lures and everywhere else. Let 1t
stand for nothing else and undertake
nothing else. To tackle the job of re-
forming the political. financial and ju-
dicial methods Of the country is SIM
ply to invite discussions within the Or
der and ultimately to disintegrate and
ruin It.

up TO TEAM .o>NNEH8
Further Progress In Chicago Strike
Rests With Them.

Chicago, June 9.0The teamsters'
strike has reached the point where
its further progress and it's further
increase is dependent upon the action
taken by the members of the Chicago
Team Owners association. This or
ganization has from the first declined
to make deliveries to the boycotted
houses and has constantly urged the
teamsters to arbitrate the question of
making such deliveries.
The teamsters have positively re-
fused to deliver or receive goode and
now the last chance OF securing and
concessions from the teamsters having
faded away, the members Of the team
owners association must either, decide
to deliver goods or allow the team
sters TO have their own way. Opinion
among members Of the teamowners'
association Is strongly divided. The
teamowners' association may decide
to make deliveries and discharge all
of its men who refuse to obey orders
Such action would add to the ranks of
the strikers about 5000 men.

PENNSYLVANIA CHANGERS.

Over 5000 New Members Added to
the Roll the Past Year.
The Pennsylvania state grange met
this year at Erie, w. f. Hill of Mont
Alto, worthy master, presiding. Sec
rotary Altman reported 6,204 new
names added to the rolls during the
past year. This does not include those
reinstated. There are now $40 oranges

year. The receipts for the last year
were S11, 440.S0. The sixth degree was
conferred on class of 215. The cleo
ton of officers occurred, and w. +.
Hill was chosen master for the tenth
PEAR. Evidently Pennsylvania believes
in keeping good men in Office, for they
have reelected their overseer for the
seventh year; lecturer, seventh year;
treasurer, fourteenth year; secretary,
eleventh year; gatekeeper, seventeenth
year, and assistant steward, seventh
year.
The legislative committee made one
of the most important reports ever
submitted to the state grange. The
Hon. William L. McCreary was at the
head Of the committee. The report
favored legislation allowing trolley
companies to carry freight; a tax Of
l mill on corporate and personal prop
erty for road purposes, to be distribut-
ed according to public road mileage;
favored laws whereby license taxes
under both county and municipal laws
be paid to the counties in which such
taxes are collected; favored the initia-
tive and referendum, parcels posts and
postal savings banks. 1t also favored
increasing the public school appropria-
ton to 100000, the amount appropri-
ated at the last session being 100000.

FARMERS SUFFER MOST.
Crops Entirely Devasted BY Floods In
Western Michigan.

~SsS" 'VsSp'Sois
Grand Rapids. Mich, June AT
o'clock last night, the river gauge read
17.9 feet. This is a rise of 6 inches
in the past twelve hours. The west
side dyke still holds and indications
are that the section flooded last year
will escape inundation.
Thursday afternoon the southwest
portion Of the city was inundated by
water backing up and a lakNtwo miles
long and mile wide was formed.
Whole blocks Of houses are flooded
and many manufacturing plants were
forced to shut down. Hundreds of
acres of farm land are under water
from two to five feet deep from back
water.
Reports from the flooded basin Of
the Grand, north of this city, indicate
the worst is over and the river is be-
ginning to fall rapidly. At Ionia it
has fallen two feet in "a hours, and
at other points a decrease In the
height of the water is noticed. ALI
the rivers flowing into the Grand, In.
Guiding Maple, Flat Thornapple and
Rogue are subsiding.
Reports from all points in the food
ridden district of western Michigan
show that those suffering most are
the farmers. Crops are entirely de-
wasted.
There may be an aggregate dam
age to farm property alone Of mil
lion dollars. The situation In railroad
lines Is steadily improving.
