Dissension in the Grange.

The little political furry in the
Maine Grange is of small consequence
when compared with the dissensions
which are shown to exist in the ma
tional body. One Of the Oldest and
most conservative of the several
bodies of allied farmers is showing the
nlakings of a political machine within
its ranks, and charges of misuse Of
funds and power are made. Some or
the. allegations are sensational, and
should not be accepted offhand for all
they would appear to mean. There is
la strong insurgent movement against
the national officers, and the fault
finders are insistent on lifting the lid.
An exchange in considering the matter
says:
Taking heed of National Master
BatchelderS significant declaration
that never in our history has there
been greater independence of party
lines among the farmers, we are pre-
pared to hear that the 100000 farm
ers belonging to the organization are
unit for rigorous regulation of rail-
ways and other public utilities; that
they refuse to recognize the existence
of any special interests entitled to
special privileges which are denied to
he ,.-hl To-. hot hnE q
largely responsible for the direct
primary system, and the agitation for
he election of senators by direct vote:
that it is encouraging to know that
the tariff is no longer purely party
question, as loyal Republicans are ad-
vocating revision: that they favor the
income tax amendment; that not they
but the middlemcn are the chief
bcneficiaries of the marked increase in
he retail prices Of farm products, and
that they will defeat every representa-
tive who does not harken to them"
1t is one more indication Of the in
dependence of thought in these days.
in non partisan as well as partisan Or
carnations. People are reading and
listening and thinking for themselves
They are distruStful Of those in the
highest places, and insurgency is liza
bic to break out in the best regulated
ranks Even farmers are drifting
away from the old standards. The
tendency is toward disruption Of we'll
settled regulations People discover
injustices against the masses where a
few years ago they were unnoted, or
accepted as 4 necessary evil. Now
they revolt, and create trouble for
parties and leaders who have been

the times, the sult of which prophets
are going SLOW in predicting.

Comfort for Sore
Hands and Feet.

Cuticura soap, assisted by Caticura
ointment, is superior to all other skin
soaps for preserving the hands, pre-
venting redncss. roushneSs and chap
ping, and imparting in a single night
that vclvety softncss and whiteness so
much desired by women. For those
whose occupations tend to injure the
hands or who suffer from dry, fissured
itching, feverish palms. and shapeless
nails, with painful finger-ends, Cuti-
cura soap and Cuticura ointment are
wonderful. They are equally success
full for tired, aching, irritated itching
feet.

coming it attempted to escape over

by the legs and beat its head upon a

hawk measured over three feet.

Market Gardener Sinks Artesian Well
In Famous Old Belle PLANE Vein and
ECHO Of Jumbo Well.

Special to Times-Republican.
Belle PLANE, Aug. 20.-The most de-
lighted man in Belle PLANE at this
time is Harry Warren, the market gar
dener. He has just put down a zoo root
artesian we'll into the famous Belle
PLANE vein. at his market garden in
the northwest part of town, where the
ground is apparently too high for any
chance of a flow, but, TO the surprise
of all, a strong flow of about twenty
feet was secured. He Immediately set
to work to utilize this water for irrlga-
ton of his garden, did not let a
drop of water go to waste. he expect
ed to ave to u1n the water, but with
with this flow about foul acres of his
garden can be watered in dry times
from this flowing we'll.
This we'll shows one of two things
either the level of the ground at this
spot is very deceptive and in fact is
lower than 1t seems to be, or else the
artesian vein is gaining in strength.
When the famous Jumbo artesian we'll
was allowed to break away here, about
twenty-four years ago. and again later,
when a we'll southeast of Belle PLANE
was permitted to go on a similar ram
page, the head Of all the artesian wells
was lowered. After controlling these
wells, the force of the water grad
ually Increased again, but never reach
ed its first power. Attic heavily
drawn upon at the present time by
hundreds of flowing wells in this vicin-
ity from the 200 foot artesian vein. the
mead of the water seems to have now
almost again reached it's original force.

SULLIVAN NAILS LIE
Jerry 3. Sullivan. of Des Moines,
Denies in Letter That He and Other
Democrats Voted for Cummins In
Republican Primary.
TO Tilnes-Re publican.

Special 10 Tirnes-Republican.
Des Moines. Aug. 20.-Jerry b. Sui
Ivan. democratic standard bearer for
Iowa, In the first campaign against
Governor Cumnrins, has found it neces-
sary to come ont in an open letter
DENYING Just one of the many cam
paign falsehoods circulated by the
standpatters in the recent primary
campaign. In this letter, which Is ad-
dressed 10 Alex Miller, of the Washing
ton Press, he says:
You are the last man that 1 sup
posed would believe the canard OF a re-
publican press that l voted for Cover
nor Cummins in q republican primary
or anywhere else. The record in the
auditors office in Des Moines will dis
close how I voted. In the rearranging
Of the precinct lines in a separate book
TO conform TO the new precinct divts-
ion my name with nearly every other
democrat in the city was placed in the
republican column. This was after
wards corrected by the auditor in ac-
cordance with the original poll book
This fact has been stated by myself
and others and certainly my word
should have as much credit for the
truth Of the matter as the unsupported
statement Of some republican newspa-
per. l say 10 you hat the man who
states l voted for Cummins is a liar
and N. truth is not IN him. I am fight
ing within the democratic party for
the success OF democratic principles
and I Will o be driven from this po-
sition by those whose interest in de-
mocracy IS purely m%ercenary and self
ism
The fact in regard to this matter was
published repeatedly in this correspon-
dence; also an interview With Mr.. Sui
Ivan quite as pointed as is his letter,
yet Editor Miller had recently, since
the democratic state convention, re-
peated the canard about Sullivan and
several hundred other democrats vot-
ing at a republican primary in Des
Moines.
