The Party's Attitude.

&1"I have been asked many times why
I do not refer to tariff revision. It is
not for me to say when the tariff shall
be revised. It is for the party in power
to say. ...-. ...s- ,ss,s .~.- =. ~: :.
g'.The party in power expressed itself
in its, last national convention by q
declaration that rates Of duty should
be adjusted only when conditions have
SO changed that the public interests
demand their alteration. This declara-
time when revision should be under
taken, to the legislative branch of the

Evidently congress has not reached
the conclusion that public interests have
thus far demanded alterations in the

USING CONVlCTS.
Let Them Help Make Our Roads,
Says Ohio Grange.


Says Ohio Grange.
The National Grange of the Patrons
Of Husbandry, following the Initiative
of several state oranges, is pushing an
agitation for the employment Of state
prison convicts in the making of public
highways. At the direct suggestion Of
the Ohio state grange Il bill has been
introduced in the Legislature of that
state looking toward convict work on
the roads, and the measure is said to
be likely to pass. 1t is a good move.
Some of the humanitarians are OPP
posed to the proposition. They think
it may prove unkind to cOnvicts to
work them on the highway and per
haps may be unpleasantly suggestive
of crime to the rising generation. Nei-
ther objection is valid. 1t is no I'M
kindness to take the convict out of his
cell or his indoor workshop in the sum
mer and autumn and give him chance
to breathe, albeit with a chain upon his
ankle, the free air Of heaven on the
public road.

DISASTROUS EXPLOSION.
Two Men Badly Injured by Powder
Explosion at c. ]. Yoder'S Lirae.
stone Quarry.

STONE quarry.
A disastrous powder explosion
occurred at c. J. Yoder's limestone
quarry, near Niverton, about ;
O'Clock Monday afternoon, serious
ly iniuring Mr.. Yoder, and also
badly burning Edward Georg, one
of Yoder's employees.
Edward Georg, Z. K. Blauch,
VIM. Tressler and Louis Hanft
were all working at the quarry
with Mr.. Yoder at the time the
explosion occurred, and the acct
dent was caused by cutting the
powder cans open with an AK in
the hands of Yoder. 1t is sup
posed that the friction caused by
striking the AK into the iron can
caused spark, which ignited the
powder.
1t has been customary at YCd-
er's quarry to drill a great many
holes into the rock and earth with
steam drilling machine which
drills hole about AZ inches in
diameter. After the holes are
drilled they are charged with
many cars Of powder, also a guam
tity of dynamite, and after every
thing is put in readiness the
charges are all exploded at once
by means of an electric battery.
In that way many tons of lime
stone and earth are loosened and
broken asunder by single ex-
plosion.
On Monday afternoon Mr.. Yo-
der and his employees were en-
gagged at opening powder cans and
charging drill holes, when the
premature explosion occurred as
noted. Yoder was frightfully burn
ed about the hands, arms, back
and one side, the skin hanging
from his hands and arms in shreds
six inches long. 1t is said that he
will likely be crippled for life.
Edward Georg was also burned
badly on his back, arms, shoulder
and hands, but his burns are not
considered of sufficient severity to
make a cripple of him.
VIM Tressler was only slightly
sCorched, and Blauch escaped with
a severe jolt, he being thrown VIC
lently to the ground by the force
of the explosion, and Georg was
thrown on top of him. Mr.. Hanft
was lucky enough to escape with
out injury.
Not only did the last can of pow
der explode that Mr., Yoder opened,
but the contents of seven cans in
one drill hole and seventeen in an
other let go at the same time,
throwing rock, earth and fire in
every direction. 1t is a wonder
indeed that the men were not all
killed or MANNED for life, and the
explosion might easily have been
much worse. as near to the ex-
ploded powder were thirty other
cans of the same explosive, also
about so pounds of dynamite and
a lot Of dynamite exploders Sal

THIS COUNTY LEADS ALL.
Jefferson County, New York, Has
$500 Members of the Grange.

Jefferson County, New York, Has
$500 Members of the Grange.
There are, according to the last cel-
sus, in Jefferson county, New York.
$3.50 farms with farm buildings. There
are now G,J00 Patrons of Husbandry in
the county, or one member for every
farm in the county, and 51S toward
making an average Of every farmer
and his wife within the ranks of the
grange. There are - oranges in the
county with over 200 and less than 800
members and only three with less than
100 members. OF the 81 oranges y
own their own halls, while at least
three others have purchased lots pre-
paratory to the erection of such grange
buildings. The estimated value of the
grange halls of the county is $4,000
while several of the oranges own COM
mOdious barns that cost from $500 to
$1,000 each. 1t will thus be seen that
the oranges are a stable and perma-
nent fixture in every community, and
much part of the machinery of the
community as the church and the
school,
jefferson county Pomona grange has
552 members and is a most useful ad-
junct to grange work in Strengthening
the subordinate oranges. Last year it
contributed $50 to the Watertown City
hospital and spent about the same
amount in providing a creditable
grange exhibit during the Old Home
week and centennial celebration of thn
county.
The last report of the secretary Of
the jefferson and Lewis Grange Fire
Insurance company showed that the
company carried on Jan. 1, 6293 poll
cies, representing S12,422, SJ4. The
company has been doing business for
thirty years. Its risks are strictly con-
fined to members of the grange in good
standing. 1t is ably Differed, and its
affairs are wisely administered. Dur
ing the early years of the company's
existence, when it carried only about
100000 of risks, the average for ad-
ministratiOn was about $120. The bust
ness has grown to $125o0,000, yet the
cost has not increased proportionately,
the last report showing the total cost
of managing the company and caring
for its great business only amounted
to 80 cents per policy. The saving to
the policy holders during the past year
from the rates charged By the stock
companies was about $4,000.

plan set forth in the petitions. We, therefore. iu our issue of March 10. gave Mr. McPherriu aud his journey our support. The fact that the plan we advocated was successful, and the Commits siouer of the General Land Office discomfited the croakers by ac- cedtng to the requests of the set tiers, is sufficient for us.
 It was held by the protagonists of the bill that Congress must coerce the Department into giv- ing justice to the people of this valley. All are now willing to praise the generous treatment accorded us by the government officials.
 The facts are that while Sena- tor Flint and Congressman Smith were getting this matter taken up by the Laud Office and proper instructions issued cover ing the matter. our critics were flounderiug in the slough of des- pond chasing the igniis fatui of a proposed bill.
 Now that success has been att tained all should rejoice.
