this Rock Springs case and the sequel

Herald towards such mob outrages. On
November 5, the day after the Iynching,
The FL Paso Herald was the first pa
per in the United States, and probably
the only paper. to foresee and predict
international complications as a result
Of the Rock Springs burning. The
Herald on November 5, denouncing the
lawless act Of the mob. said:
1T Is safe to say that an inter
national incident Of some sharp
ness will arise out of the burning Of
an unknown Mexican by unknown
parties as the coroner,s verdict de-
scribed the crime of the mob.

the names of many of the mob

On November 10, discussing the anti

Herald said:

Gently appeared in your paper justify
ing the Rock Springs lynching- The
article in Eel Eco is headed "El Paso

tCnio Rodriguez" and says that you
published an editorial November IA IN
which you apologized for the atrocious
crime committed by the Inhabitants Of
Rock Springs The article in lei Eco"
publishes in Spanish a quotation from
your paper beginning thus: 'El Hncha

of the fact that the Del Rio paper was
quoted merely ''as showing the atti-

From Del RIO (Texas) Herald.
Harmony between merchants and
producers is greatly to be desired in
Del Rio. The merchant should handle
home grown fruits and vegetables al
ways in preference to outside stuff
and in return the growers should trade
at home. This is the way to build
town.

Big Meeting OF
Pomona Grange

Puyallup, April 5.-More than 200
persons attended a meeting of the
Pomona Grange in G. A. r. hall to-
day The business of the afternoon
consisted in completing organization.
In addition to the officers already
named, Mrs. w. HI. Lawrence was ell
ected lady assistant steward; Mrs.
HI. L. Blanchard, Ceres Mrs. Fred j.
Chamberlain, Flora and Mrs. Bessie
Melby of Edgewood. Pomona.
The morning session began with a
short opening meeting followed at
noon with fine lunceon served by
the women. The afternoon session was
devoted to the election of additional
officers and other matters Of import
ance. Duncan Pearce of Burley,
Wash, and W. H. Lawrence were des-
ignated deputy organizers for Pierce
county and will assist in laying eX-
tensive plans for thorough organlza-
ton of tie grange in this district.
The idea is to organize oranges in
every farming community OF the coun-
ty and then have all affiliate actively
with the county grange. Twenty new
members were added TO the Pomona
grange today.
w. ID. Goodrich was appointed as
delegate to the meeting of the state
grange at Pullman June 7. Prof.
Lawrence was named as alternate.
The next meeting will be held early
in July, the date to be announced by
the master 1t is planned to hold the
meeting on the same day that Prof.
A. G. Steubenrach lectures on the
proper packing and shipping of fruit
Prof. Steubenrach is government
pomologist in charge of storage and
transportation experiments. He will
be assisted by other members OF this
department. Farmers and shippers
from all over the county have been IN
viCed to attend.

Parcels Post.

The grange for many years has ad-
vocated a better system of parcels
post. The great express companies
have so far successfully opposed it.
We can not wonder at this as recent
Investigations have shown that they
are making from 200 to 400 per cent on
the capital invested. That rates vary
frequently, the charge being higher
for short haul than long one, ac-
cording to the interest Of the COM
pany. This is a question that equally
interests the people of the town the
same as the country, the wage Garner
as we'll as the manufacturer, and the
farmer. Let all interested organiza-
lions unite and demand that congress
give US a system of parcels post at
least equal to any which is now in OPP
GRAFTON in other countries.

Some Things the Grange Can
and Will Do.

The grange can force the battle for
the farmer. 1t must meet the con.

and strength. Better financial con

homes, happier families and greater
love of the farm. By reason of its
strength the grange has added respon-
sibilitIes which it must assume and
carry through to success. 1t has an
