Should Delegates to the state Grange
BE PaiG by the Day or MiIenget
Secretary George II. Drake of the
New Hampshire state grange, being
asked by the editor of this department
for an opinion on this subject. said: 1t
is my decided opinion that it is better
to pay the actual travelling expenses
of the delegates in attendance at the
state grange, but it does not seem best
to pay their expenses for board.
The New Hampshire state grange
officers, the forty deputies and the
masters and their wives or husbands of
each subordinate and Pomona grange
in the state draw pay from the state
grange for the actual amount of car
and stage fare, and each is paid S1.25
per day for the time in actual attend
ance at the meeting.

gal attendant at the session Il specified
sum we avoid any complications and
very much simplify any delicate ques-
tons that might arise concerning any
extravagant board bills"

The Grange and Temperance

The question occasionally arises In
grange communities as to what the
position of the grange is concerning
temperance. At the last meeting of the
national grange the following resolu-
ton was adopted:
Resolved That the grange hereby re-
news It's fealty to temperance In all
things; that it emphasizes its belief that
the degrading American saloon ought to
be carefully and vigorously guarded until
it can be abolished and in the meantime
be made and held to a strict responsibility
for the harm it does, and that 1t believes
that every community should be empow-
cred by law to vote every saloon from its
midst or borders

to a distressing condition. 1t is not Il
question of wages. but one of where
the help can be found The records
show that over 100000 immigrants
have come to our shores during the
year. This record Is unprecedented
yet practically all of this immense
army of people have gone to other
sources of action than the farms. In
curry reveals the fact that many Of
these people are gathered in on ar
rival by agents of large contracting
interests and sent direct to different
parts Of the country. while the remain
der from lack of direction very nat
urally settle down in the large cities
to aggravate an already congested pop
ulation
Under these conditions it becomes
necessary to look about us for relief
The soil must be titled to furnish food
as sustenance, and, inasmuch as agri-
culture is the basic industry of orr
state. it seems highly proper that state
aid should be sought. 1t seems that
the time has come when the work of
the state labor commissioner should he
enlarged. with suitable appropriation
provided so that an agency can be es-
tablished at Castle Garden for the pur-
pose of directing unobicctionable i'm
migrants to the farms of our state
Cooperation between such agency and
the farmers organizations of the state
would complete the system. The lar.
ger part of immigrants come direct
from the farming sections of Europe
and no doubt would prefer farm work
here if there WAS Il system for distribu-
ton established. The plan being in
line of relief to state necessity. it is
recommended that our state grange eX-
ecutive committee investigate the mat
ter to ascertain if relief can come
from the suggested source and, if nee
essary, to ask legislation in its behalf

Ill
light of reason as applied to the or
binary rules of practice, and give due
weight to the later section. Appar-
emily the object Of this legislation was
TO prevent the granting Of extensions
and the meddling of judges in cases
which they had not tried or which
were not properly under their control,
and yet in the case of the absence or
inability CT the judge who tried the
action, to grant relief, or allow ex-
tensions to be made to deserving liti-
giants.
The argument advanced comedies
that if Judge Murphy had gone to
Reno and entered the order in open
court it would have been good but I'M
der this contention if he had stepped
through the door into the chambers
and made it, it would have been void
Orders extending the time for filings
are business usually, or properly
transacted in chambers ana under
Section 1913 can and ought to BE
made as effectually in any part of the
state by the Judge having the case in
charge, as if made by him in cham
bers or in oper court. Judge Murphy
was merely acting for Judge Curler
during his vacation, but by analogy
the construction claimed, if adopted
would in every case where a district
Judge dies, resigns or is succeeded
invalidate The orders extending time
under section 1917 made out of court
by his successor in Office, although
they are of that character ordinarily
granted in chambers. This would
mean a distinction and two rules for
filing orders Of the same kind
and that the Judge who had tried the
cause as Judge Curler had done i'll
this instance, could make the order IN
chambers. while his successor could
so make it only in the cases tried by
him, and would have to be in court
to make these simple orders extend
ing time in actions which had been
previously tried by another Judge.
Appellants desired and We're entill-
ed to the time granted fer the prr-
pose of enabling them to secure FROM
the court reporter who had left the
State. a transcript of the testimony
given on the trial. which would ena
bic them to properly prepare the state
ment.
Under Section 1913 Judge Curlar
could have made an order granting
them the extension at any place in
the State, and as during his absence
Judge Murphy was requested by the
Court minutes to attend to ali busi
ness for him, we conclude that he was
empowered to make the order at Ca1
son City as he did, and as Judge Gu"
Ter could have done, and that 1t Wa
not necessary for him to make tho triI
to Reno and undergo the Formally 81
opening court to enter ex parte order:
simply extending time. such as ar
usually made out OF court.
The motion to dismiss the appea'
from the order overrulins the motion
for a new trial ard to strike ont tn
