These referred to cooperation in buying
and selling, industrial education in pub
lie schools and equal taxation.
The Resolutions.
The resolutions are in brief as follows
Whereas, Believing that the present
law upon our statute books as relating
to the sale OF Intoxicating liquor is not
the will Of the people of the State, as eX-
pressed by the collective votes of our
towns, and
Whereas, we believe that a free gov
eminent is by the people, therefore be it
Resolved, That Vermont State Grange
again goes on record as iavoring another
referendum or some such means so as to
get popular EXPIRE. sion of the people
relating to the control of Intoxicating
liquors.
Whereas, We the Vermont State
Grange. believe that public moneys
should be dispensed for the public good
in such purposes as highway improve
ment and parcels post and not to any
semi-publlc projects, such as ship sub
sides, therefore be it
Resolved, that the Vermont State
Grange is in hearty accord with our
worthy National Master and take a firm
stand against the granting of ship sub
sides by Congress and also be it re-
solved that copy of these resolutions
be sent to our National Master and to
our representatives in Congress, urging
them to put forth their best efforts
against the proposed legislation.
Resolved, That education being one of
the fundamental principles OF our order,
we encourage more of the teaching OF
the outside world AID less of mere text
books, that we endeavor to make the
schools of Vermont more interesting and
practical to the children through the in
PRODUCTION of elementary agriculture,
that we advocate the establishment of at
least one agricultural high school so that
boys may have an opportunity to learn
by doing as we'll as by study and by such
school connect Morrill, hall with the
common school, and that we recommend
the teaching of manual training and
domestic science wherever practicable.
Resolved, That we pledge our support
to all honorable and legitimate means
for the betterment of our highways and
sincerely believe that portion of our
national and State funds could be used
to no better advantage.
Inasmuch as a revision of the present
tax law seems necessary, be it
Resolved, That we do ask for sucf
legislation as will provide for the taxa
ton OF all property once and only once.
