WHERE STATE GRANGE STAND

The following resolutions were
adopted by the Michigan State Grange
at Traverse CITY, December 10, 1909.
Whereas. The Michigan State
Grange has for years advocated and
demanded the election of United States
Senators by direct vote of the people
and
Whereas, Notwith standing the fact
that the people have not as yet secured
that which both the National and State
Oranges have advocated in this direc-
tion. step has been taken by the last
legislature looking towrd the ultimate
realization of our hopes. in the enact
ment of law PROVIDING that the can
didate for Unicted States Senator to be
elected by the next next legislature
shall be nominated by the electors at
the primaries next September
Therefore. Resolved by the Michi-
gan State Grange, that we renew our
allegiance to the principal for which
we have so long stood. that United
states senator's should be chosen bv the
people of the whole state to serve the
people, end all the people rather than
to serve the special interests and SUBJ
nit to the domination of their
representatives As is sometimes the
case in the United States Senate !:
and
Resolved Further. That we urge
members of this organization indi-
vidually to exercise that discrimina-
tion when participating in the nom
ination of a candidate for United
States senator with will hest demon
strate their belief in, and loyalty to
this principle; and
Resolved further. That we declare
against any effort TO seure the votes
of prospecticve members of the legis-
ature in the eletion of senator with
out regard to the vote of the people in
the primary and thereby instruct the
legislature committee of this organiza.
tion to correspond between this time
and the date of the primary with all
candidates for the legislature for the
purpose of ascertaining and making
public their attitude upon this ques-
tion, that is to saw. whether or not
if thew are elected 70 the legislature
thew will be bound by the vote for
United States Senator as cast by the
electors of the entire state next
