Grangers Deal with Many Local and State Problems,
Greafer Willamette Valley News
Resolutions
Meet Approval
Bilverton Hlll Ajlda from the
regular routine of business of the
local Grange, Alfred Loe. master
In charge, and Mrs. Victor Howard,
lecturer, seven resolutions were
read, discussed and passed, some
dealing with Grange questions and
others with schools, farms and the
monetary system of the United
States. Mary Murray Is resolutions
committee chairman of the Bilver
ton Hills Grange.
The group passed the resolution
asking permission of the state
(range to allow subordinate grang
es to have the final say con
cerning all Important resolutions
brought up for discussion at Stat
Grange sessions. As the rules axe
now, the State Grange makes all
these final decisions. The commit
tee feels that the delegates to the
State Grange do not understand
the situation as the home members
do.
A second resolution asks the State
and National Orange to divide the
state of Oregon Into three sections
when members of the executive
committee are to be chosen, with
one from each section and make
two terms of service the limit. As
It is now the members of the execu
tive committee are elected from the
state at large.
Resolution three urges the Na
tional Grange to work In harmony
with a balanced cooperation among
farm bureaus, farmers' unions and
various labor and Industrial groups.
Resolution four comes out with
the statement that "The state leg
islature Is unfair to the schools of
Oregon," and asks that the power
of the legislature be limited to tne
Initiation, only, of all bills concern
ing any school question.
Number has to do with the
Present trend to tenancy farm
ing" and asks more consideration
lor the farm owner who Is bearing
a government debt on his farm. An
other section asks the State Grange
legislative committee to repeal the
law (which the local resolutions
committee avers Is unconstitu
tional) requiring property qualifi
cations for those who vote at school
affairs.
Resolution No. wants the lime
of the State Orange meeting chang
ed to the second week in April in
stead of in June as la now in force,
as this would be a less busy season
lor the farmers and diversified
crop raisers.
The seventh resolution alms di
rectly at the United States mone
tary system and hasn't much sym
pathy for the banking concerns of
the nation. It offers a cure for
the inflation and deflation demands
and the approximate twenty-year
hard time series of events In cycles.
A suggestion Is offered that will
do away with taxes by asking
through the State Orange that tne
tlnited States congress assume Its
constitutional rights "to coin mtnv
ey and regulate the value thereof,'
by making the monetary board's
duty to ascertain varying amounts
of goods produced and pay Into cir
culation a portion of this for the ex
penses of government In lieu of
taxation, with the volume of money
necessary to maintain a price level
that would allow every person who
Is willing and able to work, to do
BO.
A memorial service was In charge
of Mrs. J. H. Mauldlng. chaplain
In the reading of the 33rd Psalm
and group singing of hymns. Appro
priate readings were given by Mrs.
Watcrson and Janet Mulkey.
James Bonner displayed maps
made by area engineers of the dif
ferent Sllverton Hills farms and
sections. In the agricultural com
mittee report was an urge to rid
the hills ranches of Scotch broom
that Is spreading, and claiming
otherwise producing land. Harold
Mires will be the choice of the
Grange as 4-H representative to the
stat meet at Corvnllis during the
nummer.

Cooley Choice
Linn Voters
Recount Shows
Albany H. W. Cooley was Mon
day established definitely as the
nominee of the democratic party to
the office of Linn county commis
sioner, it was announced by the of
ficial counting board. The counting
board ran through this office ahead
of any of the rest because the Issue
was In doubt, and had not complet
ed the entire count on both tickets
late Monday. The final check gave:
Cooley, 1361; Ralph Hargett, 1330;
Ed Bilyeu, 880.
Saturday Cooley led Hargett by
only eight votes. While several minor
errors were discovered by the offi
cial counters the result was deter
mined chiefly by correction of an
unofficial report from South
Brownsville precinct, where figures
had been wrongly transcribed to one
of the tally sheets.
It had been determined Monday
that no other results were altered
or affected in the least by the offi
cial canvass.
While Albany turned out a com
paratively strong republican vote,
1190 to 736, Lebanon was more even
ly divided between the parties. 478
to 434. In the county as a whole
republicans polled 4633 votes and
democrats 3840.
This was slightly less than d9 per
cent of the republican registration
total and slightly more than 56 per
cent of the total of registered demo
crat in the county.
