GRANGE NOTES
By H. w, M.

Where is that Granger who,
before election, said that Sheriff
Dennis, if elected, would not
ride on free Tramway pass?
The many Grange readers of the
Enterprise would like hear from
him.
When Ex-Sheriff Heater got
after the millionaire booze"
owners of Lakeside and made
them obey the law in every re-
spect, they severely criticised
him. And now Sheriff Dennis
allows them latitude to doas they
please, Through official negli-
xence on his part) the Lakeside
booze owners are lauding him to
the sky.
At the present time one of the
most important issues before the
Grange is the regulation of rail-
road rates and the Grangers
hear quite often the expression
railroad problem" and rail
road question. There is nothing
mysterious or unusual about the
railroad business and the prob
lens and questions surrounding
it are the same as those affecting
other commercial business. In
considering the railroad business
however, the fact should not be
lost sight of that the business Of
building, managing and operating
railroads is comparatively new,
only with in the last thirty years
has il assumed the great import
ant proportions that it now has.
The work done by the American
investor, railroad builder, owner,
and manager in the last thirty
years has been enormous in pro-
ducing the present railroad sys-
TEN of the county, a system that
on the whole is one Of the most
wonderful things ever produced
by human energy. The perform
ing Of all this work has required
many men, much money, making
Of great mistakes and wasting of
money before obtaining the pres
ont roads; learning by experience;
training Of men to administer the
business evolution of methods
and the wonder is, not that there
are some abuses and failures in
the conduct Of the business, but
that there are not more. The

ton, and need to attract capital,

the guilty this philosophy is the most
satisfying of all.
We must be careful to distinguish
between a display and those things
that really add to the comforts and
the development OF man.
The schools should teach more
that pertains to life and less that
is dead and gone. The church should
teach more duty and less Dueter-
onemy. The people must vote for
fitness not fellowship. The politi-
clan must be eliminated to the rock
pile where he belongs The farmer
must establish standard OF human
duty that will raise his class to
position of recognition, and a stand

means an enormous investment
of capital and considerable per-
iod of time, the training of many
men, and the least interference
possible with the development
of the business. Hamper the

ness.
That the abuses connected
with the railroad business are
not affecting materially the gen
eral growth Of business in the
United States is evidenced by the
fact that every where you go in
this country, from the Atlantic
to the Pacific, you see thriving
towns and cities, expanding agri-
cultural productions, demand for
and growing values of lands, in
creasing manufacturing capacity,
increasing ownership of homes,
well employed labor, demand for
more and better transportation,
and a chance for the conscientious
sober and indurtrious man to
improve his standing, no matter
what business he may enter.
If railroad rates, as a whole,
were unjust, unreasonable, wrong
ly discriminatory, as between in
dividuals and localities, this con-
dition could not exist. 1t is
claimed that the power to name
a rate should be lodged with some
other authority than with the
railroad owner, because railroad
transportation enters into the life
of the people in every way and
therefore the railroad owner
should not name the price. Is
it not true that.the price of farm
products enters into the life of
the people in every way? The
price Of a bushei Of wheat, of a
pound of butter, or of any farm
product. Is it not true that the
Iprice of those articles is just as
important to the people as trans
portation? If the final decision to
IiiX the actual rates to be charged
by the railroad is to be given to
some branch of the Federal gov
srment, because a railroad rate
enters into everyones life, it is
only a short step to say that the
final decision as to the price of
wheat, or of eggs, or of any other
| farm product should be fixed by
some governmental authority.
If it is wise for the Federal gov
ernment to fix the price of railroad
transportation because of its eff
fecting every one in the nation.
Why is it not equally wise to fix
the price of all farm products

Attention Farmersl

All farmers interested in the new
creamery to be erected in Cresco this
spring are urged to be present 1T .
general meeting to be held next Satur-
day afternoon at the Court House.
Every dairyman in the vicinity Of
Cresco should be present. The site for
the creamery has been donated and
nearly all the shares sold. It is hoped
the remaining shares will be quickly
disposed of SO that work on the build
ing may be begun soon. Remember
al stockholders are guaranteed Elgin
prices for every pound of butter-fat
and three cents above Elgin
for whole milk. The shadow Of this
creamery raised the price Of butter-fat
in Cresco the past week two cents.
which was still three cents under the
Elgin market. The promoters of this
enterprise are able to make this offer
on account of the demand for pastuv-
lied butter and by the manufacture Of
by y-products from SKINNED milk. It 10
