The accomplish ments of the grange during recent years along legislative lines bene litlng tlie runner and his family have brought the organization conspicuously to public attention, while Its vigorous attitude at the national capital the puBt two years in opposition to supreme court phckliiK and objectionable forms or government reorganization, to gether with its effective champion ing of lower interest rales for farmers and opposition to a general sales tax has won the annroval of uie larm interests to a marked de grce.
