800 Delegates at Forest
City for A mn u a |
Meeting of M a i n e
State Grange
Order Prosperous as
Shown by Increased
Mem b bership and
Finances

Portland, Me. Dec. 13.-Maine far
mers above all other people are in
need Of more public utilities service,
W. J. Thompson of South China de-
clared in his address of State master
at the annual session of the Maine
State Grange today. The depression
in public utility work hits the farmer
first and hardest, for it is he who
must go without, he added.
For the past years the, wide
spread Wholesale undertaking crit
icism Of public utilities has bred a
feeling Of distrust. IT We do not
want these utilities, We could not do
more to get rid of them than we are
now doing.
III we do want them as our neigh
bors and servants, We must learn
TO meet them In the same fair, fra
ternal spirit more than in tho past.
We should try to understand their
needs and extend our aid rather than
our hatred or mistrust."
State Master Thompson named a
few basic principles concerning taxa
ton that should be better understood.
These are: That taxes are rapid and
even dangerously increasing; that
taxes wherever placed or collected In
time become consumption taxes and
rest heavily on all alike, and that the
Grange should stand for a policy OF
pay-as-you-e enter. He added that the
bonding the State for things that we
cannot afford are passing to others
our legitimate burden is not right.
Another basic principle he gave
was that We should demand a more
rigid economy in the expenditure of
public money, and oppose increased
commissions that are so rapidly be-
ing added in every department of
government"
A resolution asking that the mem
bers of the governors council be
elected by a direct vote of the peo-
pie was introduced and referred to

The crowd was enormous for town
Of this size and 1t seemed that nearly
every fan came in a machine. Old and
young were present and many came from
as far as hfty miles. The day was ideal
from a standpoint Of weather and the
women folks were there In such numbers
that their vari-colored dresses added
brilliance that even amazed the New York
players. And Kids" they were every
where. Ruth gave the youngsters plenty
Of attention and It was a task for the
park attaches to keep them back from
the foul lines
YANKs SPREAD
LOTS OF PRAISE.
As for the Indians, they extended them
selves and many compliments were passed
on their playing by the New York club
directors, and even Babe Ruth himself.
The big leaguers were especially free
with praise over the good pitching Of
Lee Bartlett and the all-round work of
Catcher Dixon. Bartlett was on the
mound four innings and he did not per-
nit a score, while SINNERS got him self
three hits out Of four times up and Kin
sella made one Of the most amazing
catches ever seen. The phenom catch was
in the first inning, when Fewster con-
nected to left field for what appeared
TO be at least q three-base hit. It was
high and far, but Kinsella made a SEN
satiOnal backward sprint and pulled the
ball down with one hand while going
at top speed with his back to the stands.
So good was the pitching OF Bartlett
that Manager Higgins OF the Yankees,
Umpire George MOriarity OF the American
League and Babe Ruth made inquiries
regarding him. The work OF SINNERS
also attracted their attention and they
also voted the catching Of Dixon u
big league caliber. The only really shaky
cog noticeable in the Tribe lineup was
at first base, where Attreau, the young
ster, apparently had trouble handling a
lively situation.
