POMONA'S FINANCES.

How Shall Money he Raised-Dy Fees
or Quest
How shall the Pomona grange secure
it's finances? is the question which
sometimes arises for discussion In Po-
mona oranges. There is one Of three
ways = charge members an initiation
fee alone, or an initiation fee and year
ly dues, or let each subordinate grange
pay per capita dues to the Pomona
grange. A Pomona grange does not
need large sum in its treasury. and
yet a comfortable fund for any exigen-
cies Is desirable, remarks writer in
the Country Gentleman. We believe
that the initiation fee Of so cents per
member, as In New York, will be
found to be sufficient for all the needs
Of most Pomona oranges, and this
surely is a most convenient arrange
ment for procuping the finances of the
county grange. II we have per cap
ita tax for both Pomona and state
oranges, there will be but little left for
the subordinate grange, and if annual
dues are charged members of the Po-
mona grange 1t would require a very
considerable amount Of labor on the
part of the secretary of the Pomona
to see that these dues were collected.
Where the initiation fee is made the
sole source Of revenue the Pomona
should not admit to Its fifth degree
session, and Of course cannot, any
fourth degree member who has not
taken the fifth degree. In other words,
to open a Pomona grange on the
fourth degree and perform all the
work in that degree, except initiation
Of candidates, would be to give the
advantages Of the Pomona grange to
members Of the subordinate oranges,
whether members Of the Pomona or
not

nate the exhibition of dairy appliances
from the convention for the reason
that most of the prominent houses
who deal in dairy supplies are now
making exhibits at st. Louis at great
expense, and the exposition does not
close until late date. which will rem

make creditable showing at the con-

THE BARGE CANAL.

Senator Amber of the New YorI,
state Grange Legislative Commit
tee FavOrs ResubInission.
Senator Henry S. Amber, who WAS
one of the most ardent opponents Of
the barge canal scheme in the legsla-
ture last winter, will introduce at che
earliest opportunity at the next session
of the New York state legislature a
Eill for the resubmissiOn of the propo-
sition to the voters of the state unless
prior action may be taken by the legis
lature for the repeal of the act. Sena-
tor Amber argues that the eXpendi-
ture of $101, 100000. as now contem-
plated, will not suffice for the pIr-
pose, but that it will require at least
$500, 100000 to complete the canal. II
the canal is constructed he believes 1T
will be huge burden upon the agr-
cultural interests of the state and upon
real estate in the cities. He further
says that there has been radical
change in the opinion of many who
supported the measure before, as they
did not then have full information as
to the possibilities of cost of construc,
ton nor that it would be inadequate
to the purpose. He believes that the
canal should be made a national wa
terway and its construction paid for
by the national government He has
recently caused to be sent to the mas
ters of the subordinate oranges in the
state communication asking that
they forward petition signed by their
members to the canal board asking
that no more expenditures be incurred
for the barge canal until such time as
the legislature shall convene and con
slider the proposition anew.

EXPENSES AND PER DIEM,
The IDEAL Sranxe.

I think that the ideal grange will be
one which gives some attention to all
phases of the individual needs-the 80
political and the moral or inspiring
side. 1t is mistake for any grange
to permit any one factor to dominate.
Nevertheless the grange finds people
coming to it with all sorts of prepara
tion for grange service, with all kinds
Of tastes and with all degrees of edu-
cation. If 1t is to live and thrive It
must deliberately cater to these vary
ing needs.-Professo Butterfield.

much more convenient for them after
the new building on Second and Pop

free air again not only to the discom-
fort Of himself but also of those who
are waiting in the lines.
This will all be done away with in
the new building. The carrier windows
are so placed that after one has re-
ceived his mail he can pass right on"
and out z side door.
The new postoffice building will be
100 feet long by 40 broad. There will be

BIG PRESSURE BURSTS PIPES
New Water Supply Too st!ong for
Weak Mains

AS expected the big new pressure
turned into the water mains since the
stand pipe was raised has found the
defective parts in the old pipes.
A whole bunch Of leaks have crop
ped out in the main on South Third
street. Some of the leaks are within
1, ct of each other. This main which
is old and not of good quality has
rusted out so much it has been decided
replace it with new six inch pipe
from Birch street to Stahl avenue.
No other leaks of any great magni-
tude have developed under the new
pressure and the members of the water
department are we'll pleased. as 1t
was feared the amount Of old pipe
which would prove "bad" was far
greater than has shown up SO far.
One Of the worst breaks was when
the pipes over the city treasurer's Of
flee on Fourth street burst last night.
The offices below were flooded and it
was some time before the leak was re-
paired.
