The Grange has not always been a success in that respect to the farmers; but it has given them ex perience and shown them the way for improvement. The Grange store or co-operative buying and selling has very often been a failure, although, in some instances, it has proved a success. But the fail ures are no evidence that the method if carried on properly and in a bilsj-ness-llke manner, would not prove a success. Where failures have oc curred it has usually been found that the persons interested lacked business ability. Some people will fail In any thing they undertake; they are fail ure themselves. However, that is no proof that, the system is not a good one. The farmers, therefore, by being united can be trained on a business Un We do not say that they are, but that they can be. - v - ; .-. :, But nothing is at a standstill: either ' advancing or receding. And so the Grange, as its history shows, has been going forward, and no doubt but what' ; in time will be a co-operative benefit ' and consequently a financial benefit to the individual. . Although the Grange is Identified with no political party; and is a non political organization, yet it is begin ning to be held in respect by politic ians, and its power is being felt on leg islative Hues, by compelling laws to be enacted for the benefit of the country people. ..; ' Therefore why Bhould not all farm ers unite in an organization for their ' own good, instead, as a great many do, stand back and enjoy the fruits of the labor of a few. , - , Who can receive the benefit of the J It brings new ideas before them; that by themselves never would have been thought of. I believe that the women in the country feel their lack of sociability more so, than the men. They are confined to the house more or less and having such a sameness in their work the same old thing over and over day after day. Can you wonder , that they become melancholy and dis- i heartened. I Is it any wonder that the farmers boys and girls wish to leave home I for the town. There is nothing to see or to do, they say, in the country, Their parents are so wrapped up in self, and the getting of money, that they can not attend a social gather- Thelr forefathers' R, F, , D. and truthfully say that ihe Grange has accomplished nothing for the farmer. All trades and professions are united in organiaztlong of their own, and they have proved of vast benefit to them. Why should not farmers do the same? Is it a lack of lnS onc a month. Rood sense on their nartT Thn nid wav la their way. savlne that "Farmers nevar would But whose fault is It? The town hold together" hn hopn trim in thn people have their lodges, their social past; but there is no reason that it entertainments of various kinds! and should alwava be true. If farmers tney ar drawing our children away would look at the matter in a Hear I from the farms. There is really only sensible way. thev would ntnn nuttine ' one cause whv we cal nt have ur off their nose to. BDlte their fare and i S-l&ssant social meetings in the coun labor for their common welfare. And in social respects the Grange has and ,is filling a needed want. Especially in this state do the rural people as a whole lack1 sociability. Whether It is through such a great strife for money, ignorance, or such a diversity of nationalities, it is an ex isting fact. The Grange In a great many localities has Improved such conditions.' But there is still a vast space for improvement. The Grange, the only farmers' or ganization does not receive the sup port mat it should from the farmers. But tnat is no reason that it should hot. ; People living wholly, to them- might-not financially; that is, bring try as the town people, and that is our distance apart with bad roads in bad weather. That is, of course, some hindrance. Farm life can never be made at tractive until the farmers' social life is enlarged. Then again on an educational standpoint Members taking part in the doings of the Grange, can improve themselves and help others also, Farmers need to cultivate a taste for the literary. So far, the Grange has benefited its members in that respect more than any other. Who can honestly say that the It selves- become'' selfish," they- have not the regard for others' good, that they should. They naturally become dis courteous in their manners; and as a consequence of living apart from others, they grow narrow in their opinions. And what better place than the Grange to prevent such unwhole some conditions coming upon them? People need to mix together; . an in terchange of thought is, beneficial even If they do differ in their opinion. 'dollars immediately into their pocket, But even on that line, in time as the farmers become more enlightened and educated, they will reap financial benefits People can not be associated in the Grange without being effected; it may be unconsciously,, but it is felt As the teachings are all for good It necessarily has an ' uplifting 'ten dency, ': There is a vast amount of work for STORE OPEN EVERY NIGHT TILL CHRISTMAS Brownsville Woolen Mills FINE GOODS Several .

Hezaklsh Stipp. Hezakiah Stippdied in this city Wednesday afternoon. He was born Deoember 23. 1821, and had be lived until Sunday, he would have been 85 years of age. Deceased was boru in Indiana and 'moved with his parents to Illinois at an early age. He came to Oregon from Danville, 111., in 1853 across the plains with a company of men, and women, many of whom have become distinguished in the life of this state. Mr. Stipp located in the Waldo Hills, from which place he afterwards re moved to Salem, where he was married to Miss Emily Guolson in 1860. They went to Dayton, Wash., in 1873 and remained there fonr years, when they went to Junction City. Ore., and resided there two years, when Mrs, Stipp died, and her husband came to tins city, wnere ne has since lived, with the exception of three rears spent in Illinois. He is survived by four sons and one daughter, as follows: James H. and O. W. Stipp, of Little White Salmon, Wash. : Thaddeus Stipp, of Liberal, Ore. ; Livy Stipp, of Oregon City, and Mrs. Mary ueardorrr, or xremont, Multnomah Uonnty. Arrested For Trespass. A. E. Allspangh, of Eagle Creek, swore out a warrant Tuesday for the arrest of Charles Lindermann, Herman Lindermann, N. Rowley, Henry Githens, Richard Githens, John Doe and.Rioliard Roe, charging them with trespass. Mr. Allspangh is the owner of timbered land near Eagle Creek, and states thit the acuused went on the land and out off timber. He posted notices on the property and warned them to stay off, but they resumed work, and he had them arrested forthwith. Lindermann Bros, operate a sawmill at Eagle Creek. . FAIRCLOUGH MAY BE LOST His Friends Believe Safe at the Mines on Ogle Mountain. He Is P. A. Fairolougli, president and manager or the Ogle Mountain Min ing Company, has been reported lost in the dense timbor on the way to the mountaius but officers and stock hold ers in this oity are inclined to place little faith in the minor. Mr. Fair clough lef there Monday for the mines .'. and when he reached ' Otis Boyles' plaoa on the other side of MolalU comers, he left. his buggy and packed the horses, taking the miners trail to the mountain and escaping the ford on the Molalla. He told Mr. Boyles that he would return Thursday but he did not appear and this is probably the only reason ior alarm. Boi a. Walker, who is interested in the mines, plaoes no belief in the story, and said that in his opinion Mr. Fairolougli has been detained at the mines by work that is necessary to be done at once. One of the bunk houses at the mine was destroyed by' lire last week and lumber 11 needed there for the purpose of rebuilding. Al Fair olougli is the only man there who can look after the sawing, and in order to get the lumber out hi", presenoe would be neoessary. "Al is a cautious man and knows the roads thoroughly," said Mr. Walker. "The horses, too, have been over the road so of ton that they know as well as a man, and had Mr. Fan- clough been lost, the animals would have either gone to the mines, or would have returned to Molalla. I have no anxiety for the saftey of the reported miming man and believe lie is safe at the mines." MINISTERS IN SESSION Methodists cf Local District Hold a Conference. DR.

" He emphasized the influence ot true dootrine in prac tical life and described the great trusts committed to the preachers of the nineteentn century, and said : "The chances are he will not worthily keep it. Not infrequently have men given' their notions as if they were the words of God. Men have claimed to close or unlock the very gates of Heaven by some dogmatic statement, whioh he most either endorse or keep out. Wet do not honor the Holy Spirit by emphasizing the accidents of our ex perience. Let us be broad as the meroy of God, if we would keep the trust committed unto us.
