gress one of the bundles Of piping
slipped. the end of the bundle strik-
ing Mr.. Bailey near the top Of the head

man who visited his city relatives, and
got so interested in watching the tram
that he forgot to take 1t. and, as II
started away, ran after it yelling,
Hold on, we've got one passenger
aboard that's left behind" He then
said that the only way for the Oranges
TO get results was to get together and
discuss matters, that in Hancock coun-
ty the Oranges are far apart but that
they appoint committees and get re-
suits just the same. he suggested that
2 great deal of assistance can be OBJ
taiped by having speakers from out
side the Grange.
A few words were then spoken by
Mr.. E. H. Libby, secretary Of the
Maine State Grange, who said he had
been on the job for 20 years. and that
he intends to send a copy of the regis
ter to all the Oranges in the State in
the near future. He believed that great
and general good will result from the
convention, and said that the seeds
sown here would bear good fruit in
many corners of this State. After this
a general discussion Of topics and
questions was held, and a reading was
given by Sister Gilman on "Suffrage I"
followed by another which concerned
the Grange. These were both very fine,
and greatly appreciated. The meeting
was closed after a number of questions
had been talked over, and the annual
conference was then considered as sue
cessful as could be desired, great
deal of work having been accomplish
ed in the short time utilized There is
no doubt that the convention has been
of the greatest help to all the dele
gates who took part, and it is to be
hoped that the convention will return
to Augusta next year.

Boosting for your own town is fine
art and habit that has made many
a town famous as well as prosperous.
The spirit offriendiiness which many
of our people are exhibiting in visit
ing their neighbors should be given
great latitude for it will mean much
to Glenwood and cause us to think
better OF our neighbors and be better
regarded by them. There is much Of
enjoyment in being neighborly and
the Post is pleased to see the neigh
borly spirit prevail to the extent that
we are considerate of our neighbors
and they in turn are also considerable
of us. The trip to Meeker by our folks
recently did much to bring about a
splendid feeling between the two
towns and proved to the neighbors by
the White river that We are not half
so selfish as some people may have
branded us. Let the good work go

The Proposed Herd Law

1.-The Denver Post" through 1.-The
Great Divide" is trying to initiate q
law which wilLrniu the livestock in
dustry Of Colorado.
They propose to repeal our fence
law, which allows the owner Ut crop
full damage done by trespassing ami
mails, when sHch crop is surrounded
by q lawful fence. Such fence is very
simple-such as three barbed wires,
posts SO feet apart, with one stay be-
tween.
In other words, they propose that
one may put in crop any place with
out fencing the same, and can collect
damage II an animal gets onto their
crop.
This Post Herd Law makes the
owner, or caretaker, of milk COW
liable for all damage she may do of
whatever nature; whether to persons,
crops or property; whether in the
barn, pasture or on the range. It
would not be safe to own domestic
animal under this law. No state in
the union has such q drastic, unreal
sonable statute.
The legislative committees of 1.-THE
Grange and Farmers Union" have
tried to treat with the promoters of
this law, In an effort to modify and
rationalize the same, but have only
been met with evasious aud decep-
tive PROMISES.
Colorado has forty million acres Of
unfenced lands, which would be rem
dered nearly useless by this law, as
the law will not permit it to be fenced,
and because Of the habits of animals
It is most impossible and impractical
BILE to herd them. This open range
is now used by men who on the aver
age have less than one hundred head
of cattle and horses per man. On the
forest reserve over 80 per cent of the
owners OF live stock have less than
10 head of cattle and horses. From
the best estimates obtainable, there
is an average mortgage of 5000 on
every head of cattle in the state. The
cattle baron no longer exists III TINS
state. The beef trust owns no cattle.
The signing Of these petitions will
force the small stock owner to a great
expense to fight this law at the polls,
and We ask the press of Colorado and
the good people of our state to protect
US against this imposition. Please in
the name of humanity do not sign
these petitions.
