zation among themselves; then they
will be in n position to drive out the
political crooks that are to be found In
all parties.
The one thing that has made 1t pos
sible for the grange to become great
ton Is the fact that II has kept itself
clear of political alliances. The grange
today has a greater influence In shap-
ing legislation than any other single
organization. 1t has become a strong
factor in creating public sentiment,
and law is nothing but public senti-
ment crystallized or gone to seed.
Whenever any organization. the
church not excepted. allows itself to
be drawn into political fights it sounds
its own deathknell. This has been the
history of all organizations. The
Farmers alliance was for many years
one of the strongest organizations
known In this country. 1t went to
pieces when the Populist party was
organized
could not lend my assistance to
any movement that is fraught with so
many dangers. but would rather fight
to increase the strength and extend
the lines in our own beloved Order
Every member of our Order should
strive earnestly and persistently to get
what he believes to be best for the in
tcrests of the farmers in general and
agriculture in particular within the
confines of his own party.
The grange works for measures and
not for parties. 1t advocates princi
pies and not the election of men of
any particular party. If this could be
persistently followed no new party
would be necessary

farmers party in the great growth OF
cities If population continues to in
crease in cities the balance of power
will in the future be in them and not
In the country
Farmers will then be dependent upon
cities for such legislation as they may
need The decline of rural population
is the weakness of a farmers party
that would rise to q position of power
and influence. Farmers may. how
ever. exert a powerful influence on
legislation by getting together beforr
caucuses and considering certain meas
ures which would benefit their inter
ests. which are equally the Interests Of
the general public both of the country
and of those living in cities They
could then go to cauCuSes. make their
demands known and felt, ana they
would be able. so far as the country
representatives are conc erned. to So
cure right representation. This ma
be done better through existing part
organizations than to attempt to or
ganize a new party

of women who are taxpayers and who
have the inherent rig hi rs such to vote
Their Intelligence and influence com
bined with the intelligent men of any
community will secure the best repre-
sentatives any party may put up This
has been so abundantly proved in such
western states rs have made women

put up man for office whose past
record has not been a good one.
The fact that farmers are beginning
to think more of their obligation to the
best interests of their class is one of
the most hopeful signs of the times.
Yet farmers cannot be charged with
being in favor of class legislation, for
their interests are the interests of all
classes When farmers are prosperous
all are prosperous. More of discussion
and education in politics Is necessary
among farmers. and. while the grange
cannot go into politics as an organiza-
ton, it can and does do much good by
discussion and through education.

The magnificent fight waged by the
eight hour work day has won the ad-
miration of the labor world. 1t is now
thirteen months since the men in con-
tract shops from Los Angeles in the
south to Vancouver, B. c., in the north
went out and the same courage and per
sistence marks their ranks today as
when they first laid down their tools.
In all this fifteen hundred miles OF
coast scarcely man of all their number
has proven traitor to the cause. Dog
gedly they have fought the power OF
money and combined industry. The
weeks slipped by into months and the
months into a year. Strike benefits
which represent mere bagatelle of
their earning power have been their sole
means of subsistence. Before such an
array OF courage and sacrifice many
shop owners have given in and granted
the demands OF the workers and each
victory has strengthened the determine
ton of the remaining strikers to stand
firmly for the eight hour work day. 1t
is an inspiration to talk to the band OF
striking machinists in this city. For
over a year they have stood the battle,
kept their ranks unbroken. To the
casual observer it would seem rather
hopeless fight. He would see the ma
chine shops running along as usual,
think Of the wealth represented by the
Manufacturers association, and while
he admired the courage of the boys
would deplore their lack of Judgment.
But no note of encouragement comes
from the strikers They know better
than anyone else the material damage
the manufacturers have suffered
through the employment of Incompetent
workmen. They are nerved by the alb
solute Justice of their contention and
believe too, that the shorter work day
is as much q sure phase Of the evolution
Of industry as the modern machine it
self. They believe that the better con
dition- they are fighting for are worth
all the sacrifice. It's magnificent, this
evidence OF working class solidarity
given by the striking machinists. 1t
should be a lasting rebuke to the cas-
lily discouraged weak kneed unionist
who spells disaster in every working
class demonstration OF independence. It
should be a source of inspiration to the
true unionist who sees beyond the veil
of industrial struggle into the golden
future Of working class emancipation.

SHOULD FARMERS ENTER POLITICS
A Conservative Force.


think it would be very difficult for
farmers 70 organize and work in a
farmers party In rural districts farm
prS can now have absolute control over
The nomination of men among them
who would represent their interests
For many years large majority of
farmers have not attended caucuses or
used their Influence in making nomina-
lions. and. while they quite generally
get out and vote on election day, they
have to vote for such candidates as
are on the tickets which they have not
helped to make.
There are many towns where the

who have no interest whatever in good

sible men who control their votes for

looms 1t is through this element that
nominations at caucuses are made.
while farmers generally remain at
home on election day and either vote
the ticket or kick against 1t.
Notwithstanding these facts political
conditions are improving. As a rule,
better class of men are now sent to
legislatures; a higher standard of poll
tics is demanded and Is being adopted
There is less of partisan influence and
more of consideration for the general
good. The tariff is no longer a politi-
cal issue. Democrats and Republicans
divide upon 1t according to the special
interests that are influential in their
districts. Agriculture Is more and more
being recognized as the mainstay and
the backbone of any permanent pros
perity in our country. and congress
and q number of states have made
very liberal appropriations for the sup
port of agriculture and agricultural ed
ucation, and more might probably be
done In that direction.
We need more conservatism In legis-
lation, and when farmers used to be
selected more frequently as represent

conservative force and balance. eSpP
