h. N. WHITE LANDS JOB


WASHINGTON, Aug. 22.-President
Wilson this week nominated Henry M.
White of Bellingham to be commits
sioner of immigration at the port of
seattle, succeeding Ellis De Bruler of
Seattle.
Mr.. White is a member of the state
senate, Democratic floor leader during
the last session, and was a candidate
for election to Congress on the Demo
cratic ticket in the primaries last
year. He has been in Washington for
several weeks attending to legal bus
ness before some of the government
bureaus and has managed his own
campaign for the office to which he
has been named.
He had the support of practically ev-
cry wing of the party in the state of
Washington, including Hugh c. Wal
lace of Tacoma and Charles G. Heifner
of Seattle and his nomination is prac-
tically the first to be made for an Office
in the state that has not represented
an upset in the plans of one or the
other faction.

AIMS AND OBJECTS OF THE GRANGE
Continued from page -

ing after it," Now, l take it, the
Tribune covered the question in those
few words and what we need is more
Oranges organized and more members
for the Oranges already organized.
Our order is not combine for the
purpose of raising the price of food
stuffs to the consumer, for the Lord
knows they are high enough already
but our purpose is rather to eliminate
the middleman and get our products
to the home of the consumer by the
shortest route. We also feel that it is
absolutely unjust that we should have
laws permitting speculation in the nee
essaries of life.
Further, the Grange seeks to edu
cate us more on the line of intensive
farming, in other words, ito cause
two blades of grass to grow where but
one grew BEFORE" to bring up our soil
to higher state of production, beauti-
fy our homes, rid our farms of obnoX
ious weeds and other Objectionable
features, gives us representation as
well as taxation by helping us to OBJ
tain some form OF township organiza
ton that will be a real benefit to the
farmer.
The Grange carries fire insurance
that it would be well worth the farm
ers time to investigate and the social
side of this Grange question is well
worth the initiation fee. AS last
word, if you want to know any more
about it, join the Grange and find out
it will pay you. Yours truly,
ROSS CHlLSON.
