The resolution which follows was adopted at the last annual session of the Oregon State Grange and is only another strong argument why every farmer should became interest ed in the Grange, and its work in behalf of the producer and wage earner. “Whereas, the citizens of the United States have come to re gard the Postal Service as one of the most important branches of Government: and, “Whereas, it is the ambition of all true citizens to see this sendee advanced to a more per fect system not excelled by that of any other nation, and, “Whereas, the deficit of the Postoffice Department for the year ending June 30, 1906, a- mounted to practically $15,000,- 000, thereby creating a condition that will retard advancement and improvement in our Postal Service, and “Whereas, we believe this enormous deficit is caused, in a great measure, by the payment of exorbitant prices to the rail roads for the carrying of mails; by the payment of extravagant prices for the use of stamping machines, time recording clocks and many other supplies used in every branch of the Postal Ser vice; and by the flagrant abuse of the Franking Privilege, there fore be it “R esolved , that the National Grange be requested to select a committee of three members of the Order, giving them full power to employ all necessary assistance, such as lawyers, stenographers and expert ac countants; said committee to pro ceed to Washington, D. C., and make a thorough investigation of public records and all other available sources of reliable in formation in all branches of the Postal Department, and if, in their judgment, any unnecessary financial drains are discovered, the National Grange shall at once convey the fact to the Pres ident of the United States and to the National Congress and de mand a public investigation.” HULRBURT.

A writer in the National Tribune, urging membership in the G. A. R.. says: “Every ex-soldier or sail or owes it to himself, his war service and the comrades who stood by him then to do his share in the work and help bear its expenses. The demands up on every post for fraternal as sistance are heavy and must in the nature of things continually grow heavier. Sick comrades must be visited and given the cheer of fraternal sympathy and help. Nothing so comforts the sad hours of languishing illness as the visits of comrades. Dead comrades must be buried, and nothing so exalts them and the A well - trained memory is one services they rendered their that knows how to forget what country in the eyes of their you don’t want to retain. ----- ------------ country as a full attendance of. veterans at their funeral.
