NrToih ouT CpctIdl correspondent
Wayne County Pomona Grange,
No. Al, met with Cherry Ridge
Grange, No. 1871, Thursday. 1t
was an ideal summer morning and,
as expected, we found patrons gath
cred from nearly all parts of the
county, some coming a long dis
tance and hitching their horses to
the family wagon-they brought
along with them a good load of
friends and neighbors. We noticed
an old bachelor with his team and
a wagon Capable of holding sever
al persons) loaded with young la
dies and was glad to greet them.
We will mention no names, but
would not be ashamed to do so If
necessary, as they all add a credit
to their parents and the neighbor-
hood in which they reside.
A good representation of dele
gates were present from all of the
surrounding Oranges and those in
the southern part of the county.
The Grange opened in full form
l. d.
NJ. G. Noble in the chair. After the
reading of the minutes of the last
meeting the reports of Oranges were
read and Notwithstanding the hot
busy months of summer the reports
show that there has been steady
/, increase in membership throughout
the county.
There seemed to be some confu.
sion about which Grange had taken
in the largest number of new mem
bers. For while it looked as il
| it was a tie, but later it was ami
cably settled that Union Grange Of
Ariel should be awarded the honor
of holding Pomona's honor banner
for the next quarter.
Many, after partaking of an early
| and perhaps a hurriedly gotten-uI
breakfast, and after riding man!
miles over hills and valleys, were
| glad to hear that dinner was read!
and Grange adjourned. A heart!
welcome was extended all and NJ
one could feel a stranger where sucl
cordiality was extended. Mucl
credit is due the women. both younl
and middle-aged, for the excellen
dinner provided and the manner IL
which they cared for and handled
the large number of persons to b.
fed. Dinner over, the patrons agaiI

KIND OF ANSWERS EXPECTED
 MAN WHO TAKES THE CENSUS

are to be counted, but persons born after April 15 gre not to be included in the count. Persons who were single on April b are to be reported as single, even though they have married subsequently and before the canvasser has called. This is true, similarly, of persons who became widowed CT divorced after April 15.
 The census law provides that all per- sons shall be enumerated at their usual place of abode" on April 15. This means the place where they may be said to live or belong or the place which is their home. AS a rule, the usual place of abode is not the place where person works or where he eats, but where he regularly sleeps. The enumerators are cautioned, however, that where a man happens to s 4eep at the time of the enumeration may rot be the place where he regularly sleeps.
 There will be a number of persons hay ing their usual places of abode in enum- eration districts who will be absent April 15. These are to be included and enumerated after the facts regarding them have been obtained from their fam ilies relatives acquaintanees or other persons able to give the information. For instance, if member of any family in an enumeration district is temporarily away from home on a visit, or on busi- ness, or travelling for pleasure. or at tending school or college. or sick in hos Eital, such absent person Is to be enum- erated and included with other members of the family. But son or daughter reg ularly living in another locality should not be counted with the family at home.
 Servants, laborers or other employees who live with the family, and sleep in the same house or on the premises, should be enumerated with the family.
 The census bureau states that there will be, on the other hand. a certain number of persons present and perhaps lodging and sleeping in districts at the time of the enumeration who do not have their usual places of abode there. These are not to be enumerated. It must be assumed that they will be enumerated elsewhere. The canvassers should not, therefore, unless 1t is practically certain that they will not be enumerated any where else, enumerate or include with the members of a family they are enumerat- ing any of the following classes:
 Persons visiting a family.
 Transient boarders or lodgers who have some other usual or permanent place of abode.
 Students or children living or boarding with a family in order to attend some school, college or other educational in- stitution in the locality, but not regarding the place as their home.
 Persons who take their meals with a family but lodge or sleep elsewhere.
 Servants, apprentices or other persons employed by a family and working in the house or on the premises, but not sleeping there
 Any person who was formerly in a family, but who has since become a per nanent inmate of an asylum, almshouse, home for the aged, reformato1y, prison, or any other institution in which the in mates may remain for long periods of time.

DEMAND UPON PEARY
 TO SHOW HIS PROOFS

aWshington, February 1s--Members of the House may demand that Rob ort F. Peary exhibit his proofs to the world in general before votinga him gold medal and the thanks of Con gress. It was learned today that the naval committee was not entirely unan- imous on the proposition of bestow- ing honor on the discoverer of the pole.
 One of the leaders of the House, who declined to allow the use of his name, said today that he was opposec to accepting the proofs of MT. Peary that he discovered the pole, merely because the National Geographic so- oiety had accepted them. He charged a preconceived prejudice in favor of Peary on the part of the society and said that before Congress took this step the verdict of this society should he confirmed by other scientific bodIes of the world
 Several members have expressed op- position to the proposed Peary hon. ors, and one or two have threat ened to discuss vigorously the mat ter on the floor if it is brought up here.

Decatur, February 1S.-tSpecial.)- The democratic executive committee of r1c Eighth congressional district at the meeting held at the Hotel Bismark in Decatur this afternoon and presided over by Chairman Henry A. Skeggs of Decatur conformed strictly to the let ter with the rules as laid down by the state committee for the present, but adopted unanimously a strong reso lutior protesting against the interfer- ence of the state committee with the actions of the congressional commit tee in the future.

Humphrey of Huntsville, a member of the committee, said that the members of this committee were elected by the democrats of the district and knew better what was best for the district than the state committee did. The reso- lution follows:
 ''Whereas, we, the democratic exec utive committee of the Eighth con gressiona1 district of Alabama have in compliance with the call of the state executive committee and for the sake of harmony called the primary for the purpose of nominating democratic can- didates for congress from this district on May 2, 1910, and
 "Whereas, the executive committee of the district was regularly elected by the people for the purpose of manag- ing and taking care of their interests in ali matters looking to the nomin- ation of candidates for Congress and to do all things necessary to be done to carry out the wishes of the demo- cratic party of this district therefore.
 Be 1t resolved, That we oppose any interference with the duties of this committee by the state executive com mittee and we most respectfully rec ommend that hereafter the state com mittee refrain from making orders in reference to the conduct on the af- fairs of this committed; and
 Resolved further, That copy of these resolutions be sent to the Hon. W. D. Nesbitt. chairman of the state democratic committed"

 cussed-The Programme

Montgomery, February 1S--tSpeciaL) Alabama will sapresent the name or Dr. Clarence J. Owens of Abbeville, this state, for reelection to the of fee of commander in chief of the United Sons of Confederate Veterans, determine tion to this effect having been reached at a meeting of officers, past and present, of the state diFision in The office of Dr. Thomas M. Owen. his brian general, on Friday. After the session John l.. Moulton, commander of the Alabama division, made an- louncement of the purpose and called upon all sons of the state to show an interest
 Commander Moulton states that there is a demand from every divi- sion for retaining Dr. Owens, and 1t Is taken that he has no serious op- position. In view of the fact that the executive council has made the adju- tant generals office permanent, with stated salary, and the general line of new developments it is thought best to keep the commander in chief as he is in full accord as well as full knowledge with the movement in every way We ake it that a change would be very bad for the organization at this tirse, said MT. Moulton.

 The details of the programme were entered into but not fully worked out. Under the new rules the sons will meet the afternoon before the converting of the general reunion and get the bulk of tn cir business out of the way. This being prepared for, plans are in making for speakers, maids and spon- sors, hotels and railroad rates and the many things that go to make up a complete card of such a gathering. Commander Moulton thinks that Ala bamais going to do great things in
 he beautiful city of Mobile for the old soldiers and their sons and he assures he people of the entire south that 1t will be a good time to see the city and the state.
