STATE GRANGE OFFICERS.

Opinion on Their Election by Worthy
Master Horton of Michigan.
The editor of this department re-
Gently submitted question as to cer-
tain suggested changes in the methods
of electing state grange officials to
Worthy Master Horton, and his reply
foilews. The questions referred to the
ciaIs by Pomona oranges, which were
to submit list of candidates 70 the
state grange for the consideration and
action of the state grange delegates.
The other question referred to the
making Of nominations OH the floor of
the grange the same as at political
conventions. Mr.. Horton states very
clearly his reasons for the present sys-
tenn Of vetlng. He says:
The constitution of our Order defines
who are eligible to vote in the state
grange, and the provisions covering this
Important matter are in harmony with
the basic plan of the grange structure.
The election of officers being one of the
chief functions of the state grange, con-
stitutional provisions for voting would
very naturally include and govern tho
matter of such elections. To change the
unit of authority In the matter Of elect
ing officers in state oranges from the
state grange itself to the members at
large or to the medium representation Ia
Pomona oranges would require revi-
sion of the constitution and quite a rad
ical change In the whole organic plan as
conceived and promulgated by the found
ers. While on general principles 1 favor
the democratic plan of peoples rule, 1t
does not seem plain that In this fraternal
body of ours fraternal brotherhood and
good will would be better served than
now. while on the other hand much con-
tention and strife might be engendered.
,aSuch strife and contention would be all
right in a political organization and con-
ventions, but 1t was foremost in this
minds OF the founders of the Order of
Patrons of Husbandry to bind the tillers
of the soil together In fraternity and all
members agree that this sken cord
should not be broken. 1t has always been
the governing thought to eliminate all
political tactics and methods Of advan-
tage getting from grange elections. The
question Is very important In that so
much of the original grange plan Of
structure is involved
/ Regarding nominations and supporting
speeches, l fear that If 1t were permitted
! state grange sessions would have to be
] greatly extended. AS above stated 1t has
= been the rule to eliminate all semblance
of political caucus and convention meth
DDS from grange meetings and procedure.
! As 1t Is now done every member has a
right and fair chance to have his or
her name presented, and all members
have the right to a secret ballot thereon.
Under present methods oranges may hold
i an election, and no member will have his
| rights and privileges abrdSed or sighted.
| So far as nominations are concerned !
| am In favor of the present method.
| GEORGE B. HORTON.

WHO MAY BECOME MEMBERS
Question of Eligibility Discussed by
State Master.

Question of Eligibility Discussed by
State Master.
In recently issued circular letter
to Ohio oranges State Master Derthick
says:
The Order is becoming Sc justly popular.
not only because of it's social and educa-
tional features. but for the systemaHzed
opportunity it offers Ter effective cooper
alton, that men and women Of all oceu-
pations are knocking at our gates for ad
mission. Page 100 Of the Digest para
graphs to 8. describes who are eligible.
The declaration Of purposes says that
many are excluded by the nature Of our
organization, not because they are PRO-
fessional men or artisans or lahorers, but
because they have not a sufhcient direct
interest In tilling the sell or may have
some interest in conflict with cur par-
poses" Page 100, paragraph l. Of the
Digest declares that "any person engag-
ed In agricultural pursuits and having no
interest in conflict with the purposes of
the Order and Of proper age QourteeA
years) Is eligible" Paragraph interprets
the phrase Interested in agricultural
pursuits to mean that a person must
be engaged IN agriculture to greater
extent than in any other business, or, in
other words, his leading business must
be agriculture" Fhus It will be seen
that each subordinate grange will. under
the law. decide upon the eligibility Of its
applicants. The ruling has always been
that In rural communities teachers, ply
sicians and ministers are eligible, as they
have, as a rule, no interest that conflicts
with the purposes of the Order and may
always be effective in promoting the chief
feature Of the grange-edueatien. 1t has
always proved unwiSe to solicit as a
member one who Is known as "a disturb
err" In q community. "a person hard to
get along with or one to whom there Is
considerable objection.
Beyond question, the original intent
of the founders of the Order was that
only actual farmers, tillers Of the soil,
should he entitled to membership, but
it has come to this--that there are not
more than two or three states In the
Union where this condition Is enforced
at all, and we doubt II half the sub
ordinate oranges in those states abide
BY the regulations. Just why the ma
tional grange should permit such a
condition as to membership to remain
in the governing rsles Of the Order.
only to be constantly violated, we do
not know, but there 1t Is. It Is left to
the Interpretation Of each individual
grange, with the result that good
| many who are not engaged in agricul-
tural pursuits" at all are admitted to
| the Order. Either the word "and''
should be changed to ''er" in paragraph
I of the Digest (making it read "or
having no interest in conflict" ete.) OF
else every grange should be made to
live up to. the present requirements.

Ohio Reading Courses.

The Ohio state grange reading course,
which has been tried for year in that
state, has met with the most excellent
success. Fifty-eight classes were or
ganized in twenty-five counties. Four
hundred and seventy-three books were
purchased at cost of about S43O.
These reading classes are held in the
oranges in some instances, and in 9th
ers classes meet for recitation several
times during each week and report re-
suits at each grange meeting. Mrs.
Mary E. Lee, who has the work In
charge, says that 1t has passed the ex-
perimental stage and become a fixed
reality.

GRANGE HALLS.
Their Advantages to he Discussed at
December Meetings.


What are tho advantages derived by
grange from the ownership of a grange
hall?
The advantages derived are very
similar to tho advantages derived by
person who owns rather than rents his
home. Doubtless there are instances
where a leased hall for use of the
grange would be less expensive than
owning a hall, when interest on the
money invested, repairs, insurance and
care are reckoned, but even this does
not often occur. When it does, it IS
no argument that should have weight
against a grange owning a hail. A
religious society would not expect to
be permanently successful that held its
services In leased halls. A town or
school district does not hire a hall In
which to hold school. The government
Is erecting elegant buildings in all the
large cities for the transaction of its
business. although at many times the
annual expense that a leased hall would
cost. The fundamental idea In all these
matters Is one of permanency and that
an association or society of any kind
Is more likely to be permanent if it is
able to meet within its own walls. In
addition to this, there is a sentimental
idea in regard to a grange owning its
hall that does not appear In all the
other instances cited. When owned 1t
seems more like a home to the organi
zatiOn. More interest will be taken in
beautlfying and adorning it, and this
will increase the interest in the grange
itself 1t will have that semblance of
comfort and will instill Il feeling of CO.
operation and contentment among the
members of the grange that can hardly
be secured in any other way. Conten-
ton and strife are less likely to occur,
and the grange room will begin to have
an attraction for members second only
to that of their ewn homes. They will
find themselves looking forward to the
time of the next meeting not so much on
account Of the exercises that are to be
held as on account of the feeling that
the meeting will be in some sense a
home gathering of members of the
grange household, and no such Intense
feeling could be developed If meetings
We're held in leased or public hall. In
short the owning of a hall by grange
adds permanency to the organization
and promotes fraternity In an eminent
degree National Grange Bulletin.

FARM LABOR QUESTION.

National and state Oranges Should
Help Farmers Get Laborers.
One Of the most puzzllng PROPOSE.
tions that confront farmers today. says
Hon. George b. Horton. master of the
Michigan state grange, Is that OF OBJ
tanning help to carry on the dlNerent
branches of agricultural operations and
housekeeping. Our country, with all
its Industries and resources. Is wit
Messing wonderful development and
this provides attractive opportunities
fer farm bred boys and girls and also
for all those who labor for hire. These
conditions have drained the country
to distressing condition. 1t Is not
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.
vet practically all Of this immense
army of people have gone to other
sources Of action than the farms. In
uuiry 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 eongested pop
ulation.
Under these conditions it becomes
necessary TO look about us for relief.
The sell must be titled to furnish food
as sustenance, and, inasmuch as agri-
culture is the basic industry Of our
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 be
enlarged, with suitable appropriation
provided so that an agency can be es-
tablished at Castle Garden for the pur-
pose of directing unobjeetionable 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 IL there was system for distribu-
ton established The plan being III
line Of relief to state necessity, 1t is
recommended that our state grange ex-
ecutive committee investigate the mat
ter to ascertain II relief can come
from the suggested source and, If nee
essary, to ask legislation In its behalf.
Grange Fire Insurance In Few York.
The amount of fire insurance in
grange companies In New York state
IL increasing by leaps and bounds. AT
the last report Of the central organiza-
tion, which was on Jan. last, a
grand total of $1OO.9S6, ,495 was in force
in twenty seven companies in this
state. The large amounts are carried
in Jefferson and Lewis counties
namely, $12, Az, ,854; st. Lawrence and
FRANKLIN nearly $8,5OO.0OO; Chemune
and Chautauqua over 100000. The
wonderful success Of this insurance is
based largely ON the fact Of econom
ical management of local companies
and the care with which risks are
taken.

thing definitely known is that he has
n warm personal admiration for the

senator Crane may eventually declare
for Mr.. Taft, shrewd political Judges
hold that he is wise in not making
such declaration now, They are of
the opinion that the time is not yet
ripe and that the Massachusetts sena
tor can do the secretary of war more
good by declaring himself at a later
hour. The Ohio situation is still puz'

Elections in Maine.

Democrats had aTittle the better of the
municipal elections held in II of the Maine
cities Monday While they lost theil
mayor at Watervile, Rockland and Au
burn, the republicans lost theirs at East
port, Ellsworth, Bath and Hallowell. The
democrats retained their chief executives
at South Portland, Lewiston and Saco
and the republicans at Gardiner. Chief
interest centered in the efforts of the
republicans to recover control of Auburn
Rockland, Saco and Waterville, which
turned over to the democratic column last
year. The democrats lost the head of their
ticket at Waterville, but they still con.
troll the city government. On the other
hand, the republicans obtained the bal
ance of power in the city councils at South
Portland, Bath and Hallowell, while los
ing their mayors. The closest results were
at Hallowell and Saco In the former city
the face of the returns showed plurality
of four for the head of the republican
ticket, but a recount by the aldermen to-
night gave the election to former Mayor
Fred Emery Beane, democrat.

People familiar with the situation
are not surprised at Vernon s jump
into the license column. For the past
several years it has been commonly
talked that liquor was being sold at the
South Vernon hotel, and with this con
dition of affairs in existence it is not
surprising that certain interests, ordi-
narily in favor of license, should have
been satisfied with no regime. When
Mr.. Bacon became state s attorney
last December he let it be known that
any violators of the liquor law in Yer
non as well as in any other town in
the county would be prosecuted forth
with. Hence the change in the Yer
non vote on the license question.

ROOSEVELT FOR TAFT.

In discussing President Roosevelt s
program for the remaining two years
of his term, the observant Washington
correspondent of the Springfield Re
publican writes Interestingly on the
question of who will receive the re-
publican nomination in 1908. Assum'
ing that the president stands squarely
on his statement that he will not ac'
cept another nomination the Republl-
can s correspondent says:
The question of President Roose-
Welt 3 successor is closely related to
his legislative program. The fact that
he has so dominated his party as to
force it into paths distasteful to many
of it's members gives him double cause
for interest in the party's choice OF
a nominee. The degree of Mr. Roose-
welt s domination would alone be suf-
ficient temptation for an endeavor to
dictate his successor. But beyond this
is the fact that the Roosevelt policies
are frankly opposed by the conserva-
tive wing of the republican party.
Therefore Mr.. Roosevelt has every rea-
son in the world for endeavoring to
see to it that the party names a man
of his own type. There is no question
ing the fact that Mr.. Roosevelt sees
in Mr.. Taft the man who will best car
nv on the work he has inaugurated.
This has now been well understood for
long time. Moreover, President
Roosevelt is believed to feel in com
mon with a great many Others that
Mr.. Taft is not unlikely to prove the
only republican who can beat Mr..
Bryan. The Hartman disclosures,
while they have helped President
Roosevelt into a strong position from
which to carry on his RAILROAD cam
paign, have by the same token mate
rally increased Mr.. Bryan's opportun-
ity and made it still more essential
that the republicans shall not nominate
a reactionary. 1t is believed that
President Roosevelt is encouraged by
the reception of Mr.. Taft's candidacy
to date. But it also is thought that
the administration looks yearningly
toward Senator Crane in the belief
that he has it in his power to lend
most powerful aid. Senator Crane,
meanwhile, has given no indication of
what his course will be, and the only
