hold out against the powerful armies
of all the rest of Europe, but now
we are being convinced that 1T is a
serious necessity that we get a large
army of our own men in the field,
hoping, with the greatly increased
numbers, to overwhelm the German
hordes and wrest the conquered ter
ritory away from the conquerors and
finally take from the Hohenzollern
rulers their power as menace to
the remainder of the world.
To this end we pledge ourselves,
our sons, our means, and what more
can the brother who wrote the letter
above referred to do?
There has been no change, because
of the death of our beloved Master
in the stand of the Grange. We
would not be true men and women
If the death OF one man could cause
US to sway from the principles upon
which we have stood. Conditions
may change and cause us to, as In
the past, change front, but we beg to
assure the ex-brother above quoted
that Brother Bouck, Brother Lewis
Brother Flint, and all the rest OF
loyal Changers are just as loyal as
he is, and we will venture that we
have sacrificed fully as much as he
has in this cause that is SO dear to
the hearts of true American citizens

BENNETT TELLS My
He FAV0Rs BONDS


Six reasons are set forth by County
Commissioner s. Y. Bennett Gf 70
Why he believes the 100000 bond
issue for the pavement Of the Pacific
highway should be authorized insthe
special election February 10. "a q
statement issued during the past
week he says:
II would like to give the voters Of
Thurston county the reasons why. I
favor the bonding issue at this time
for paving the Pacific highway be-
tween Olympia and the Pierce county
line. IL.
First, by covering the $4,000 Of
federal money we get ~ miles Of
paved road without cost to the
county.
Second, we will save the $4,000
maintenance money that we will pay
out to maintain the roads yearly.
Third. BY doing this work while
the Nisqually bridge Is out we will
save about $4,000 that 1t would take
to keep up detour road around the
work at any other time.
Fourth, when the. pavement Is
completed 1t will connect the capital
with American Lake, Tacoma and Be-
attic with good paved road.
Fifth, the pavement will be To-
Gated where three-Quarters of the
people in the county, going east out
Of the county, Will have the benefit
of It.
And sixth, we will have IL miles
Of the finest pavement in the stats"
All three Of the commissions
have now made public statements en-
dorsing the bond issue.
