GRANGE Iona for Conservation.

For years the Grange has been the
advocate Of the conservation of nat
ural resources. Long before councils
Of governors were being called to-
gether to consider the question, long
before newspapers and magazines
were giving columns and pages of
space to the subject, the Grange was
pointing out the need of conserving
the natural resources of the country,
it's forests and It's water powers; and
with consistent energy it has kept
hammering away on the same subject
That the present interest, now so in
tense and rapidly on the increase, Is
due in no small measure to this persis-
tent Grange agitation for years, there
can be no doubt In this, as in other
matters, the Grange was in advance of
public thought, holding up the ideals
of genuine progress; and by so much
has 1t often demonstrated it's capacity
for actual leadership.

FIGHTING FOR EQUAL TAXES
State Grange of Pennsylvania Also
Urging the Initiative, Ref
erendum and Recall.

The State Grange of Pennsylvania
is putting up a stiff fight in behalf
of equalization of taxation the initia-
tive, referendum and recall, and these
subjects are receiving a thorough dis
cussion in subordinate Oranges all
over the state, to the end that public
sentiment may be aroused in their be-
half
State Master William T. Creassey
has been member Of the Pennsyl-
vania legislature for nearly twenty
years and, backed by Grange influence,
pies and has seen them constantly
gaining ground in public sentiment.
In the matter of an equalization of
taxation, the State Grange position Is
set fourth in four distinct PROPOSE
tons:
by relieving real estate of taxa
ton by increasing state appropriations
for schools and roads.
"A law to pay to school districts
the minimum salary Of teachers for

3.-An appropriation from the state
to townships (having cash road taxi

ships for road purposes, up to $25
per mile.
4.-The enforcement of the constitu-
tional provision for taxing all classes
of subjects uniformly.

The
National Grange
IS UNJUST TO THE FARMERS
Position Of the Grange In Opposition
to the Proposed Canadian Reel
procity Treaty Explained.

Both the National Grange and prac-
tically all the State Oranges are TAX
ing strong position against the pro-
posed Canadian reciprocity treaty and
by many the exact nature OF the
Grange opposition is not clearly unuer-
stood; and in concise form 1t may be
stated as follows:
The Grange does not oppose any
scheme of genuine reciprocity, where
n by some exchange tariff readjust-
nent with other nations there shall
be a reduction of tariff import duties,
with corresponding and compensat-
ing reduction on import articles or
common use; provided, however, that
no one class of producers are required
to bear the entire brunt of such re-
duction.
In the present instance the proposed
schedule aims to admit on the free
list practically everything the farmer
raises for market, yet provides no APP
preciable reduction on the articles OF
common purchase by the farmers.
True it appears that the treaty, If
products under free trade conditions;
yet forcing him still to make all his
purchases upon a continued high pro-
lection basis. 1t Is against this injus-
tice that the Grange of the country Is
protesting, heartily backed up by fully
95 per cent Of the six million farmers
of this country.
The Massachusetts, State Grange has
just issued a comparative table, with
the deadly parallel idea, which is
the most comprehensive argument that
has been put out against the Canadian
reciprocity project. In the first col
umn are shown forty articles Of com
mon production on the farms of the
United States, all of which are to
come in free, If the pending treaty is
ratified. In the other column are
listed forty articles of common use in
the average farm home, on not one OF
which does the treaty provide any re-
duction, but whose continued tariff
tax ranges from Is per cent. all the
way up to $25 per ton. This vivid
argument in parallel figures, more con.
vincing than pages of ordinary argu
ment would be, Is being widely cir
culated all through Massachusetts,, and
copies of it are being posted in all
| the Grange halls in the state.
Never has the Grange organization
taken such vigorous and united
stand on any measure as in the case
of the present reciprocity measure;
and widespread attention has thereby
been attracted to the order in all
points of the country, as it has pressed
it's fight in behalf Of the farmers in
terests of the country.

about to deny its ownership, when
his eye caught the name "Kil-
grow" on the back of one of
the folds. He took the paper
with what nonchalance he could mus
ter, gave the old negro quarter, and
did not dare to look at the thing until he
had put hundred yards of the forest
on Johns mountain between himself
and the possibility of prying eyes.
Then he examined the square of grimy
paper with a singing in his ears and
the blood jumping from heart to brain.
There was no room for doubt or uncer-
tainty; he held in his hand the forged
deed. The document which had so long
eluded him had come to him at last by
the merest accident; and il anything
were needed to make his triumph COM
plete, it was added by the discovery that
the written text of the deed was in the
unmistakable handwriting of Mr.. Jen-
kins Fench. That was enough; but
there was another and still more con-
elusive evidence of the forgery. The
stationers' imprint in the corner of the
blank fixed its making five years later
than the certified date of the document
itself.
The Yale expositor. (Yale, St. Clair County, Mich.) 1894-current, 1911-06-22

Not to give sober second thoaght q
chance to counsel better things, he
pocketed the forged deed and went
straight to the dingy little Office next
door to Catron's store. The old notary
was sitting at his desk, and the lines of
reticencc in his sallow face deepened
into wrinkles when he looked up and
saw who had opened the door. Thorn
dyle wasted no time in Introductory
phrases.
Two or three months ago, Mr.. Prag-
more, l asked you some questions about
deed purporting to have been given by
John Kilgrow to James Gates. The
record shows that you attested it, but
you denied any recollection of the cir
cumstances. Will you tell me now that
you did not antedate your certificate six
years or more? that you did not ac-
knowledge the signature of a man
whom you believed to be dead?"
Pragmore stiffened himself in his
chair and made no sign, though he had
to moisten his thin lips to say: "You
cayn't prove anything"
The sullen defiance overdrew what
ever amount of prudence the discovery
of the deed had left Thorndyke. Lean
ing over the desk, he held the paper out
spread before the eyes of the old man.
'Do you pretend to say that this is not
your signature? Will you tell me that
you don't know Fench's handwriting
when you see ii? Did the printers make
a mistake of five years when they put
their imprint on this blank?"
The mask of inscrutability slipped
aside for a moment, and Pragmore's
face became gray and furred with
terror. Then he relapsed into sullen-
ness again, but there was an angry snarl
III his voice when he spoke.
1T don't know nothin' about it, mr.
what-all ye're amin at, but I'll tell we
first an last, We cayn't bulldoze me
This here's my office, an since We found
the way in, 1 reckon We can find the way
out"
Philip started off in q white heat OF
wrath. Halfway to the door he turned
on Pragmore.
II came down here to give you one
more chance to save yourself" he said !:
you don't deserve any more consider
alton than any common criminal, but
you're an old man and you've let these
fellows make tool of you. Once for all
will you turn states evidence? or shall
send the sheriff after you?"

DRAWING TIE SWORD.


When the first burst of exultant ex
citmcnt had spent itself, Thorndyke sat
down upon a flat-topped stone and
mapped outa plan of attack. He would
begin on Pragmore, terrifying the old
Dortary into submission and confession
by sight of the forgery which he had
made possible. Then he would push
Fench and Sharpless to the wall by in
stituting proceedings against them in
both the civil and the criminal courts.
lie would apply for an injunction re-
straining them from disposing of any
of the property in dispute. He would
stop the wheels of business and seal UP
the fountain of Allacoochee's prosperi-
ty until Kilgrow's rights were recog-
nized. He would show these unscrupu-
lous robbers that though Justice might
be blind, she never sleeps.
This was the outline Of the temerari-
Gus plan which ingeniously combined
all the elements of defeat and failure.
The impetuous zeal which had carried
Thorndyke triumphantly over the dis
arrangements of the long search for
evidence became at once source OF
weakness and stumbling-blocki in the
way of final success; and he was never
less a match for the crafty and con-
scienceless corporation attorney than
at the moment when he believed that
victory was to be had for the taking.

trimmings, had risen rapidly upon the
square of land, well within the limits
of the new Allacoochce, which had
been donated by the town company.
It was characteristic of the time and
place that the county officers were NOV
ing into the new building while the
painters and decorators were still at
work, and Philip crossed the street to
get out of the way of van-load of fur
niture which the driver was vainly at
tempting to back over pile of debris
IN front of the entrance. Farther down
the street, Philip met another load, and
at the foot of the cascade of steps flow
ing down from the porch of the old
courthouse he found third van into
which a gang of negro workmen were
loading the furniture of Judge Wilkin-
sons Office.
During many Of the days spent in
canvassing the town for possible
clews, Philip had haunted the court
house; and more from force of habit
than for any other reason he climbed
the steps and strolled into the room
which had been the Office of the judge
Of probate. The place was bare and va
cant; the counter where he had so often
pored over the books of record was
gone; and the floor was covered with
a litter of waste paper which rustled
under his feet like the autumn leaves in
forest When he entered the negroes
were moving an ancient case of pigeon
holes from the place against the wall,
and Philip smiled at the prompt ce-
lerity with which they put it down at
the sound of the noon whistles. Before
the echoes of the blasts had died away
they were all gone save one, a grizzled
cid uncle who had brought his dinner,
and who sat down on the floor in a cor
ner of the room to eat it.
Philip gazed abstractedly at the
heavy piece of furniture, which was all
that remained of the office fittings, I'M
til he suddenly remembered that it had
been the receptacle for recorded deeds;
then it occurred to him that here was
the last traceable point in the history of
the missing document. Each pigeon
hole contained drawer on which was
painted letter of the alphabet, and
Philip mechanically drew out the one
marked OK" It was empty, as he knew
it would be, and, pushing it back, he
left the room and the building. At the
foot of the steps the old negro overlook
him.
"Yaas sab, please sab, you-all done

Philip glanced carelessly at the
folded paper in the mans hand, and was

Egyptians Embalmed Alive.

Prof. Maspero, the renowned Egyptol-

that among the royal mummies un-
bandaged in 1866 was one of a young
man who had evidently been embalmcd
alive. The body had been tightly
bound in three places and then coated
with btumen, lime and pounded resin,
and then wound from head to foot with
bandages which had been soaked in
some glutinous preparation. The ag-
onized expression Of the face and other
evidences gave the scientists their
clew. His age was probably about a3.

we have to do with every day of our
