National Grange On Roads

The National Grange has continued
its sessions in Wilmington this week
as outlined in last weeks WING. On
Wednesday the Grange clearly defined
its policy relative to the good roads
movement when it adopted the report
Of special committee, appointed for
the purpose Of simplifying the policy
OF the grange as propounded at last
years meeting. The grange opposes
the building Of boulevards and scenic
roadways to the exclusion of the inter
ior roads
The convention claims the boule-
wards are all right and an asset, so far
as they advertise a state when they
can be afforded. but that the interior
roads should first be built because
they help the producer and consumer
and are the real arteries of business
life. The grange favors the pay-as-
you-go plan in road building, and op-
poses heavy bond issues for this work.
The convention placed its stamp of
disapproval on the giving away of the
country's natural resources to private
monopolies, and declared that when
this has been done. such monopolies
should be taxed to their full franchise
value. The legislative committee is
urged to watch carefully the policies
Of the grange on this subject and to
protect them from the predatory in
terests.
The report Of The committee on
home economics, recommending that
more attention be given TO this sub
ject and that an educational cam
paign be started to bring it closer to
the people generally was adopted.

Tribute To Late Rev. r. H. Adams

At the third quarterly conference of
the North East M. E. Church, he'd re-
Gently, the following tribute to the
memory of the late Rev. R. H. Adams
was ordered to be entered upon the
minutes:
Whereas, Since last we met as a
quarterly conference, God has trans.
ferred from this charge our beloved
pastor, the Rev. Richard H. Adams,
to the eternal reward promised to the
faithful; Therefore, We deem it mer-
tied though sad duty to give express
sion to our appreciation of his sincere
though briefly permitted pastorate at
North East.
when Brother Adams came among
US at the beginning of this conference
year all with whom he came in con-
tact realized right from the first that
he was a man of God. The readiness
here, his promptly made plans to meet
the spiritual needs of the church, and
the readiness with which he was get
ting his plans into active operation,
gave hope to the church of pastorate
of more than ordinary success. When
the first whispered call came from
above, he did not recognize it because
Of the eagerness with which he had
entered upon the work that was call
ing into action a physical strength
more than he could master, and,
though his body was enduring pain,
he continued to direct the affairs of
the church with an eye that saw
naught save the glorifcation of our
God in the higher spiritual uplift of
those among whom he had come to
minister. Although he was not per-
mitted to see in this life the realiza-
ton of his purpose; yet We do know
that his zeal in behalf of this people
made upon their hearts a deep and
lasting impression. Though his lips
are silent, the words that formerly
fell from them found Judgment in re-
ceptive hearts. Though dead, We re-
joice in the belief that he lives-lives
in the hearts of this people, and lives
in the glorified life eternal. We cher
ish his memory and thank God for his
faithful and fruitful ministry"

Much suppressed indignation ex-
pressed in mutterings prevails among
the unconfined residents Of Ossining,
the town nesting in the shadow OF
New York's noted penitentiary. 1t
seems the authorities entertain the
notion that distinguished persons COM
mitted to the pen must be kept inside
the walls, while the humane prison
chiefs feel that occasion visits outside.
where special attention and delicacies
may be had, promotes the health of
the prisoner. A Brooklyn bank wreck
er, sent over the road, was utilized as
chauffeur by the prison keeper.
which humane indiscretion caused the
keeper to lose his job. Ossining resi-

a MINORITY PARTY.

The Chicago Tribune, which has
been liberal advocate of the progress
sive movement in an editorial in
Thursdays issue, among other con-
illusions, says:
1t is clear from the election that
the democratic party is still minor
ity party in the United States 1t is
equally clear that a return to the
dominance Of the bosses of 1912 will
not be considered by the voters.
Whether they call themselves pro-
gressives, progressive republicans, or
republicans, the voters will never
stoop to that dictation.
On the contrary, the election has
cleared ground sufficiently to take up
the rational, steady course of progress
where it was broken of in 1912.
Putting principle above partisan
ship, and national welfare above per-
sonal ambitions, the same elements
which made the republican party pro-
gressive in 1912 can control it N in
1916.
If they do control 1t in 1916, the
party will be successful. If spirit
OF revenge is cherished, or il disour-
agement prevail, if the hard-faced,
soft-bodied men of the Coliseum re-
turn to the saddle, the republican par
ty will not succeed.
The Tribune believes that the pow
er OF self government, the distinguish
ing feature of the federalist, whig,
republican party, will assert itself
Machine control will be dashed aside;
personal ambitions ignored; and the
majority of citizens, enlightened in
true economic principles, guided by
the highest American ideals, will find
common ground upon which to stand
and competent leaders to follow to the
re-establishment Of majority govern
ment in the United States.

vicinity. Mr.. Davis claims to have
opened one of the greatest natural gas
wells ever found in West Virginia and
Ohio and claims for this section his
ability to locate three anticlines be-
tween Keokuk and Burlington.
The fact that several deep wells
had been drilled in this section with
out results as far as natural gas was
concerned and that the artesian wells
some 1 800 feet deep had failed to
show deposits OF oil was suggested to
Mr.. Davis during the interview and he
stated emphatically that drilling wells
for water was vastly different than
was the act Of drilling for oil. The
work and knowledge required when oil
is drilled for is most extensive and
particular and makes it a business In
itself. Not anyone can take equip
ment and expect to find gas or oil, he
must know how" said Mr.. Davis. Al
though salt well driller knows his
business and water well Griller
knows his, it is only man who is
experienced in drilling for gas Or oil
who can obtain results.

What promises to be one of the
most brilliant musical events Of the
year is the appearance of Mr.. John w.

These musicians besides having car

what art studied and lived, in the

them that they are so perfectly the

both to make the complete and abso-
