The question of chaugiuff the basis
of representation in the national
grange was a prominent one at the
Watertown session. Ttie worthy over
seer’s re|>ort sugKestetl it. and two and
three resolutions favored It. Although
the grange very decisively voted for a
change, yet no basis for the same wits
fi.xr'd. that being left to the discretion
of the national grange itself. Tlie res
olution as adopted follows:
Resolved, Ttiat the New York nt ate
grunge reaffirms its belief in the principle
of representation according to niemtier-
•hlp and directs the worthy master to use
all legitimate efforts to secure th*- adop
tion of that system by the national
grange.
The present representation is two
members from each state, the state
master and his wife. This is tlie sen
ate plan. Tin* proiortional representa
tion simply asks that voting memlier-
ship in the national body be based on
tlie total grange membership in each
state, thus giving the large grange
states more votiug power than the
stun II states. The basis of one addi-
tional lueiitber for each 10,600 of uietn-
liersiiip lias been suggested, and by
another resolution voted down at the
