JOUS MISTO is another, M r ex-office holder and politician, who takes a shot at the grange by insinuating that it is a politi­ cal institution. He explains in a letter in Wednesday’s Oregonian that the grange was organized in the interests of Southern democracy. That was not its purpose, but its purpose was to re-bulid the homes, fertilize the fields and stimulate the in­ telligence of farming classes in that war-wrecked country. The grange has always looked to the welfare of the producing classes, particularly the farmers. It has been independent, chosen the good wherever found, rejected the bad from whatever source, refused to be a tool of any party and the real animus behind such vicious attacks as that one men­ tioned is that it cannot be used by political leaders for their own personal promotion. It is too in­ dependent to suit republican ma­ chine leaders and since it is not subservient to their purposes it ¡3 branded as democratic and we admit that so far as they are personally concerned, or so far as the political support they may- get from the thinking “Grang­ ers.” the institution might as well be democratic. Anything not to their way of thinking is democratic. And we insist the grange is democratic in the word’s true sense. The grange is of “The people,” regardless of party or other affiliations. The republi­ can party, as administered by cliques and rings and machines, is oligarchic, of the few —the leaders —and it is a sorry' fact that the party has always essen­ tially been so. It has been. I lead, you follow -distrustful of the intelligence of the people, and nowhere else does the party’s trait show itself more plainly than right here in Oregon. Out­ side of this feature the republi­ can party has many things to commend it. many things to ad­ mire and armies of good men to command our regard. In the main its policies have been the best and its products the most satisfactory, but there is no use denying its faults, or abusing every' movement not in entire ac- with its so-called party leaders. Where Mr. Cox keeps himself is a mystery. If he is a real live man it would appear that he would get acquainted with every person on the force, especially in a city the size of Portland. Then there are a lot of other things he might look into. He would find that the town is in a very bad condition morally, anil that his assistants are generally suffering from near-blindness. AS the traveling spectacle ven­ Did he prove to you. ignorant as he was. that he had just your "fit?” Do you know your eyes are the source of more pleasures or pains than you have ever dreamed? The re­ sult of deranged eyes may be headaches, pains in the temples, back of the head or neck or ex­ treme nervousness, or sick head­ ache and disordered stomach. The remedy for near-sightedness or far-sightedness or astigma­ tism can only be applied by one who works with an understand­ ing secured by study and instruc­ tion. and with proper instruments to test your eyes. Ninety-five per cent of the “fits” secured from the ordinary dealer in glasses, are misfits and in the end will do you more harm than good. Economize by going to a good oculist. H der been to see you? OME time since we published some queries from the Chi­ cago Tribune. The result of the canvas of all the newspapers west of the Alleghanies shows that the present adminstration is far from being a popular one. For the re-election of Speaker Cannon, 557 voted yes, 3194 no. For the Aldrich-Cannon tariff, 839; opposed 3496. In the face of these figures Mr. Taft comes out with a letter supporting both of these men, their policies and their products. Evidently he doesn’t care for the job a sec­ ond term.
