WHO MAY JOIN THE GRANGE
State Master Fuller of New York In
terprets the Law.

State Master Fuller of New York In
terprets the Law.
One of the duties devolving upon the
master of state grange is the inter-
probation of grange law, and one of the
most frequent questions referred to the
master is, who are eligible to mem
bership in the granger Hardly a mail
comes to the masters desk, says
George A. Fuller, master of New York
state grange, which does not contain
one letter asking this question, and not
infrequently four or five in the same
mail. The primary qualification for
membership in our Order is plainly set
forth in the constitution-namely that
the applicant must be engaged in agri-
cultural pursuits and that he must
have no occupation In conflict with our
purposes and that he or she has reach
ed the age of fourteen years. The
grange Is essentially a farmers organ
ization, and as such 1t should be made
up Of farmers and their families 1t
may be delightful to have our friends
who are not farmers with us ON occa-
sion, but to take them into active mem
bership in the grange is clearly uncon-
stitutional and undesirable. Emergen-
cies are constantly arising in which the
interests of farmers are not identical
with the interests of other classes and
Industries, and under such circum-
stances it becomes an embarrassment
to have members of the Order who are
working and acting in opposition to the
interests Of the majority. Let us keep
the grange a farmers organization for
farmers.

Confessed in Jail?
District Attorney Ward demanded of
him if it was not true that he had told
turkeys in the county jail that he had
killed Billy Brown. Gillette said It
was not. Yet, while the attorneys for
the defense believed that this interro-
cation was simply a trick designed to
impress the Jury with the defendants
guilt, it learned that evidence that
Gillette did make such a confession

CARUSO'S ACCUSER
BALLPLAYER'S WIFE
Woman Who Had Famous Tenor
9. Arrested Is Found-singer
: :: y T.. ~ ~ Is Cheered. =, q. - r.

New York, Nov. 29.-The World
says that the woman who gave her
name as Hannah Graham and who
failed to appear in the police court to
prosecute the charge which she made
against Caruso, the Italian tenor, has
been found. She is Mrs. Stanhope, tho
wife OF Adam Stanhope, baseball
player.
The World quotes Mrs. Stanhope as
saying that there is no question but
what the insult offered by Caruso was
intentional. She said she did not know
at the time that the man was Caruso;
she did not desire to make any COM
plant against the man, but finally did
so because Policeman Cain said that
the man had insulted other women
there that day and he wanted to lock
him up.
Mrs. Stanhope denies ever having
to make the complaint against the
singer Finally, after repeated requests
to do so, she consented to accompany
| the officer and the prisoner to the po-
lice station. When he reached there
a man who was pointed out to her as
Police Captain Stephenson, told her
she declared that she need not give
| her real name.
~ guess we have this man dead to
right,' she quotes the captain as hav-
ing said to her, "and you need not

| When asked why she did not write
| letter to Magistrate Baker during the
police court hearing, Mrs. Stanhope re-
piled: ~ was afraid. After I told
my husband he acted like a mailman.
He. wanted to go to the Hotel Savoy
and punch the tenor: Gus Meehan, his
friend, had a hard time holding him in

finally persuaded him to let the court
punish Caruso.''

THE SCHOLAR IN POLITICS.

We do not recall that any man has
ever gone from the chair of a college
president to that of president of the
United States, or that any president
of the United States, with the excep-
ton of Garfield has ever occupied
a position of that kind at any time
but the suggestion of the editor Of
Harper's Weekly that Woodrow Will
son, the president of Princeton college,
would make a good president, strikes
us as a good one Mr. Wilson is just in
his prime, a man of remarkable attain
ments. of superior executive capacity
and of pleasing address and great force
of character.
Among the reasons suggested by
Harpers why Mr.. Wilson would make
a good president is that he is a
statesman of breadth and sagacity; q
brilliant orator; stands for sound
principles and progressive policies;
commands the respect of all with
whom he has come in contact; is in
thorough sympathy with the interests
of the whole people; represents no
class; possesses Gin a degree unequalad
since the days of Blaine that indefin-
able quality known as personal mag
netism,' and was born in Virginia
The latter, while a mere incident is
nevertheless interesting and important
The nomination by the republicans OF
a man from Virginia would undoubt-
eddy go a long way toward winning
for him popular support in the south
Woodrow Wilson is a big man. He
is big enough for the office and while
we are not pisking candidates for
1908, this suggestion of Harper's
Weekly of a college president for pres
ident of the United States is. inter
esting, not only because it proposes a
man who is thoroughly qualified, but
because it emphasizes the place of the
scholar in politics as has never been
done before. We have in the presi-
dents chair today a fine specimen o:
the scholar in politics and hereafter
we shall always appreciate more on
that account that kind of qualification
in the occupant of that office.

WHO ARE THE ANARCHISTS

his wife and children and servants

he was? Would he hurry into some

if he had one, and put to sea to es-
cape service? Or would he come for

She accuses him of perjury in oral tes

accusations may give the key to Mr..

Rockefeller and Rogers know
