goplun. THIS CHANGE AXD EDUCATIOX,
Dy some misconception some people
- in the state have got hold of a notion
that the grange Is opposed to eduea-
- tlon along the lines of specialization
and stands for nothing higher than
the ordinary common school can give
to cltlsens generally. In fact, we are
told that at some of their state meet
ings they were looked upon as people
of such ordinary Intelligence that the
simplest form of the Anglo-Saxon had,
to be used In order to make them un
derstand what was said to them.
Could some of these mistaken people
have been admitted to the conferences
of the organisation they would have
learned that topics of public Interest
were discussed with aa keen Intelli
gence and critical knowledge as would
have been found In any organization
of learned men.
One notable feature of the meeting
The score stood four all. Yesterday
afternoon,' before a large crowd, the
tie was played off, with the result that
Elgin was defeated, f to 1. These two
games and a series of races officially
dedicated the new race track In this
city. The Elgin players left last eve
ning for La Grande, returning to their
home this morning.
