organization In no uncertain lerma
was expressed her today by Pomona
Grange, Patrons of Husbsudry, which
held II quarterly meeting with Mll
waukle Grange. The wave of Insurg
ency that waa backed by Oregon,
Washington, California, Colorado.
Pnnnsylvsnla and Maine, was com
mended In a resolution Introduced by
A. J. lewls, of Maple Lane, and unani
mously adopted, after a favorable re
port from the resolutions committee.
William Heard, I, II. Kirchem and An
na J. l.ewia. The resolution follows:
"Wberess, we believe th Nstlonal
Grange haa not been conducted along
line In accord with true Grange prin
ciples, but m the Interests of factions
and clluuea. to th detriment of the
work , of the Order. , both - legislative
and education, and
-Wheress. at me session or tnat
body held at Atlantic City In -November,
a few loyal patrons and among
them our worthy state mss'ter, entered
a ringing protest against auch proced
ure, and
"Whereas, we believe It as much
our duty to commend brave and loyal
aerrlce as to condemn disloyalty and
chicanery, therefore be It
"Resolved, that we heartily Indorse
the action of the faithful few In that
aeaslon. and eapeclslly commend the
work of our worthy state master,
Urother C. E. Spence. and the splendid
stand he took for what we bellnve to
be for the good of our. grand Order."
The. addreaa of the retiring master
of Pomona Grange. J. W'. . Thomaa. of
Molalla. was given especially cioae
attention and follows:
This meeting closes my fourth year
aa your servant worthy master. I
have attended all aesalons. save one
In July laat. Whether I have been
worthy of the position you are the
Judges. However, you have kindly
endured me aa the first master to

which time we hsve besrd msny pleas-
ant and Interesting discussions point
ing to the betterment of our domestic
and civil governments.
"Harmony seems to hsve prevailed
In thla organisation, which la Indeed
an encouraging sign on the wsy o pro
gress, and a consistent virtue for an
Grange, to possess, which has for Ita
mission the Instruction and peace.
making for tbe good of the Order In
the auhordlnate Granges.
'Clackamas Pomona Grange de
clared Itself agalnat tbe division or
Old Clackamas County, and her bound
aries still remain Intact.
We are entering upon a period of
gigantic accomplishments and this
Grsnge most needs to be on the alert
to 'suggest,' through vigilant educa
tion, that the measure most favorable
to the tiller of the soil be enacted In
to our laws, ao much the more when
we aee the present organization eman
ating out of the expresa companies to
scare our country merchants Into op
posing the adoption of an American
Parcels Post."
Report a or the officer were heard.
The retiring lecturer, Mra. Maggie A.
Johnson, waa present at every meet
ing. She had received regular reports
from the subordinate Granges and
much good hsd been derived from tbe
plan of Inviting speaker from within
and without the Grange. The secre
tary. Manilla GUI. reported 99 Initiated.
A. F. Miller made a very Interesting
ststement anent tbe Inaurance depart
ment of the Grange, stating tbe policy
la conservative, that the renewals bad
totaled 11.000,000 and that the Grange
la carrying Inaurance risks aggregat
ing $2,000,000. The duration of tbe
pollrlea haa been extended from three
to five yeara and th terma of th di
rector changed accordingly. Treas
urer Wright reported a balance on
hand of 74. with disbursement for
be year of $55 35.
Much Interest waa manifested In the
report a of aubordlnate Granges. Mo-
lalla No. 310 reported Ita annual fair a
derided aucceaa, and acknowledged
the gift of office chalra from -the Juv
enile Grange. Molalla No. 40 la doing
well, and Clackamas No. 298 Is In a
prosperous condition, with good pros
pects for another year. Warner
Grange haa an orchestra and Ita last
meeting waa the. tjest or th year.
Maple Lane No. 298 la looking forward
to good year, and Harding No. 122
has bargained for a park (met at $100
an acr. with half enough money sub
scribed. This Grange has paid much
attention to the varloua tat amend
menta, and the single tax has been
"cussed and dtscussod." as one mem
ber put It. Harding Grange will In

tertainment that netted $20 and Its

Highland Is out of debt and has new
furniture, also a Grange paper. Oar

Several entertaining apeeobes were
made, one by State Lecturer H. A,

tisanship that all the Orange south

interest yourdltorials on road mat
ters and am pleased to know that you
are Interested In same. I also am Im
pressed that you are aiming to treat
the matter fair and unprejudiced.
flince you. have Invited a discussion,
I will aay s few things because this Is
a question that greatly Interests me..
Possibly because, while quite a young
man, I was my aider's foremen when
he waa a street contractor and graded
many of the early Streets In East Port
land. This would naturally give me
an eye for following grade stajces and
an Interest In good road building. My
real Interest In roads during tbe past
16 years Is because I have been an
extensive user of them and that not
with an automobile. but In the old
fashioned wsy, by team, on horse back
and not a little on foot. I am not op
posed to the -auto" and the only reas
on I do not have one Is because I can
not afford It. During these 16 years
I have need tbe roads quite extensive
ly In seven counties, Multnomah,
Waahlngton, Tillamook. Polk, Ysmblll,
Marlon and Clackamas. I hsve
watched Clackamas come out of a mud
hole of despafr until she Is ranking
well wiihlhe counties In road building
and by far ahead of some or her neigh
bors. I can well remember wnen
Multnomah was as bad a mud hole
aa Clackamas ever dare be.
The best system ror a county to op
erate under, I believe, la th question
asked to be discussed. I have no
fault to find with our past county
court I think they did splendid work
and I believe It has been the best four
yesrs of, road building In the history
of Ibe county. Their system through
out was good and I believe that anoth
er four years under the same system
will do far more than tbe past four
years.
The bridges have been tneir heavi
est burden but they now are practical
ly all In good condition. We are Just
getting acquainted with the special
tax queston and that Is the only ays-
tern which gives each locality the privi
lege of solving Its own road problems
and It Is doing It where properly en
couraged and that Is the reason for
the increasing demand for the division
or road districts. I believe that any
neighborhood that Is willing to assume
Its own burden or road building ahould
be given the privilege. Tbe special
tsx Is not a burden to resident taa
payers because they soon earn It back.
I believe that road districts which
are levying heavy special tax ahould
be aaslsted or encouraged by the
county court in preference to the ones
who do not. If 1 were a member or a
county court It would indeed have to
be a very extreme case to Induce me
to agree to appropriate one dollar to
a district which did not levy a tax first
to help Itself or make a very liberal
donation.
I understand that the past court has
worked on a policy of giving to the
rural districts every dollar or the gen
eral road levy belonging to that dis
trict and this only ralr and as It ought
to be. The road supervisor problem
Is probably the greatest or all and I
doubt very much If a general super
visor or road engineer would solve
that problem. I am quite sure that
the placing or a county like Clackamas
Into one or two road districts would
not do It. We have tried electing the
supervisors and It wss a flat failure.
In fact we are Just recovering from
that dilemma and I hope Clackamas
has too good sense to ever try the ex
periment again. The petition plan
may do almply as a suggestion or In
dication to the court and yet It often
results very disastrously. By this plan
neighborhoods are torn to pieces,
friends are made enemies and often
the moat Incompetent man Is put Into
office. ' The most competent road sup
ervisor Is not1 always the most popular
man In the district. In fact It Is some
times the reverse of that. I have
known men to oppose very competent
road sn per visors simply because they
tried to make them earn their wage,
because they Insisted on a day's work
ror a day'a pay.
Thla Is where the great leak or
wsste or road money comes In, Is In
competent road supervisors. I doubt
very much whether a g nerai super-
vloni- would overc me -.this difficulty
sny better or so well as the present
system for he would draw big pay
and bla lob would largely depend on
his popularity with the district super
visors. However, snouia we ever oe
so unfortunate as to get back to the
old elective system of the district sup
ervisors, then I would say by all means
have the county court appoint a gen
eral supervisor so some one would be
responsible to the court.
I believe we should select ana elect
men to our county court who know
the county well enough that they are
competent to select competent men
for supervisors regardless ot petition
or personal pull. The past court, I
believe, waa doing tnia ana i Deneve
if left alone the present court will
soon get thla problem In hand.' I be
lieve our present commissioners are
thoroughly competent for each to over
see one-half the county and I believe
Judce Beetle Is well enough versed
with the county to fin it a sort, of
aeneral oversight, The cheapest inon
ev that Clackamas county , ever paid
out and from which It received the
best returns was John Lswellens ex
nens account -The present system
Is working welL . By all means give
the new court a chance and do not
force them out of a good system Into
some, radical exoirlment because that
will only retard road work and be ex-
penalve to taxpayers. ;
- Above all things do not encourage
the legislature to tamper' with our
preeent system but say to them "bands
off this session anyhow. ...
