ed him master OF the Illinois state
grange some fourteen years ago, which
exalted position he has held with great
credit to himself as well as the order
ever since. Two measures which have
been earnestly advocated by the grange
have been enacted into law IN Illinois

the session of the legislature Mr.. WI.

presented the claims Of the grange and
was accorded most respectful hear
Ing. This measure became a law, CIV
ing the farmer the right to express his
opinion at the ballot boz as TO whether
the legalized saloon shnll exist or not.
Master Wilson believes that the pres
ent complicated primary law Is a step
backward and that II does not meet
the requirements OF the people. He
believes that an appeal should be made
to the legislature to repeal the present
law and that direct primary law be
enacted giving to the people the right
to express their preference regarding
nominations for all Offices without re.
gard to party affiliations.
Mr.. Wilson feels the pressing demand
for the passing of Judicious parcels
post law. he believes that this gov
ernment cannot afford to discriminate
against her own citizens 10 favor OF
any foreign nation.
Master Wilson urges that the grange
should with renewed energy use every |
legitimate means within Its power to
secure a deep waterway connecting
the gulf of Mexico with the great lakes
and the lakes with the Atlantic ocean.

A Word From Clerk Oliver.

Mr.. Editor: My apology for
asking the publication of the above
list, is to show that the organiza-
tion is composed of some Of the
most progressive farmers Of Lin
coin County, men who, in spite of
the boil weevil and storm disasters,
are determined to still stick to the
farm, and by improved farming
and diversification make this bet
ter country than it has ever been.
1 wish | could give you a synopsis
of the many interesting talks at
our meeting by farmers, but it
would take too much of my time
and your space. Suffice it to say,
that there is not going to be any
Sinking by the farmers of Lincoln
county. The business men of
Brookhaven pledge themselves to
buy all surplus oats at market price.
AS the crop will be harvested in
May and June, it would he the
means of putting large sum Of
money in circulation, at time
when business is usually very dull.
/ hope to enlarge the foregoing
list, and am ready to enroll the.
names of all who may apply
S. P. OLIVER.
