Pigeonholed Legislation. Several grange measures were left In committee pigeonholes when con gress adjourned. Among them were the bills providing for limited parcels post, postal savings banks and the elec tion of United States senators by popu lar vote. Find out who among the con gressmen voted against these measures and go after ' them with the "big stick," the ballot, If they come up for re-election. The only way, It seems, to secure legislation along theso lines is to elect men wbo favor It, It takes time to accompliiih desired re sults sometimes, but the grange Is not a "quitter." Uncle Joe won't be speaker always, and he seems to have been most as large an obstacle in the way of the legislation referred to as anything or anybody. GREAT INTEREST IN LAND OPENING.
