The grange stands today as one of

farmers Of Maine, but In order that &c
shall remain such and continue to de-
velop along those lines great care must
be exercised that 1t does not fall into

are hearing of this or that man being

grange has no candidate for any office.

right to cast their ballots for such men
as will advance our agricultural inter-
ests. This will not be done by voting
for men who stand for the open and
legalized rumshop. This fact cannot
be too strongly impressed upon the
minds OF grange members, for II It once
becomes known that this order stands
by and supports men who represent the
legalized saloon its days of usefulness
are numbered. Civilization is moving
upward and not in the other direction.
