" " Once Was Enough. k- While seated on the top of the stagecoach with the driver during a trip from Silverton to Ouray years ago a young easterner became ex-4 ceedingly nervous. As they were; traveling calong a hillside, with ,a ravine several hundred feet deep; .-within., a couple of feet of the road,! the young tenderfoot, suddenly, turning to the driver, asked,- "Do; people Jail ,over here very often V . A. broad grin spread over the driver's face as he rolled his wad of .tobacco from one cheek to the otheri and, looking up, with a merry twin-1 ue m ms eye, exciaunea, "jNaw; only once." - D. J.

South Second Street. 11-271 bor for a combination of interests. Concerning it the Springfield Republic an says: , - "This proposition Is based upon the assertion : that the labor men are ill treated, that the . farmers are -presumably, so and that It would be for their mutual interests to combine. Of course such combination would be effective principally In -the legislature.- What is the practical. . proposition, therefore, - a log roil or Japor and agricultural in terests, with the idea that the two ele ments would be able to secure the leg islation desired by each wing. Very likely, if such a combination wete to be formed. It ,would come .very near dominating . the legislature, . . jand the politicians outside would have to. make terms with them. "But, as a competent 'observer of the situation says,, the agricultural element Is habitually conservative. The labor element Is xadicaL It Is a question whether any such combination would. be entered Into by the farmers. In the first place, the farmers are not trained to .combination. -They are born Inde pendent and they lire .Independently, so much so that combination among themselves Is .diiScuIt. They , general ly propose in the legislature to act In dividually about as they think right, and. they are not accustomed. to com bination unless they believe. It is right On the face of It there is no more rea son why the farmers should combine with; the labor men than with .the man ufacturers except upon the assumption that they are equally downtrodden and oppressed .classes, pad that Is not in Massachusetts a sufficient basis for such a combination." ; A SURE FOUNDATION. it Success s the Secret of Unfailing In Grange Effort. . One of the most efficient forces for the betterment of the farmers' condi tion today is the Order of Patrons of Husbandry, . commonly known as the grange. - No other farmers' organiza tion compares with it in actual accom plishment; none claims superiority In aims and purposes. The founders of the Order forty years ago issued a "declaration of purposes" which Is the chief cornerstone on which' the great grange superstructure has been erect ed. They declare the purpose of this organization of the farmers to be "to develop a'' higher and better manhood and womanhood among ourselves; to enhance the comforts and attractions of our homes and strengthen our at tachments to pur pursuits. We pro pose meeting together, buying togeth er, selling together and, in general act-; lng together for our mutual protection xnd. advancement." . '. From- these de clared purposes the grange has never swerved, and today : where an active grange exists there Is established a po tent agency for the moral, social and educational uplift of the -community.
