for it is significantly silent concern
ing Mr. Pierce's attendance at the
meeting held in Portland January 19
for the immediate organization of the

was decided upon. According to pub
lished stories concerning the session.
E. Spence, master of the State
grange, was made chairman of an ex
ecutive committee appointed to for
mulate a plan for permanent organU
zation and a plan of procedure for the
meeting. Mr. Pierce was in attend
ance at the meeting, participated in
discussions during the day, and
served as a member ot the legislative
committee, whica submitted a report
recommending somewhat radical leg
islation.
Politicians also recalled today that
Mr. Pierce at the annual meeting of
the Oregon State grange at Salem this
year supported C. E. Spence for re
election -as master after Mr. Spence
had delivered an "address against a
resolution introduced in the grange
repudiating its indorsement of the
league a year before, and which was
adopted by a vote of 76 to 3.
