j be a meeting of unusual interest
|to nil Grangers in this section,
i After the routine of business of
I Thursday forenoon, the afternoon
I session opened by a hearty address
jof welcome by F. D. Lewis and
response by Master Shaw. The
question box was then conducted
by Worthy Lecturer A. T. Lilley
of L< rov. This was followed by
a ">;li degree sessi >n.
! in the evening a meeting was
| held m Kxchatige Hall, open to
the public. A fter singing by the
Grange and the New Albany Male
Quartette, the large audience lis
to an excellent essay bv Mrs.
Louise Piolett. The speaker of
the evening was State Grange
Sec'v., J. T. Ailtnau of ilarrisburg.
Ilis theme was: "Is The Grange
Worth While?" He spoke of the
: beneficial i,ej_
; about directly ti
ence of the (Jran rt
tiie ianuing com in u.
debt to the Grange, whic._
paid only by joining the ran.
Hon. George Moscrip 1 lion gave a
I abort talk on the corrupt methods
' of some of our politicians at ilar
| risburg.
Perhaps the most interesting
session to Grangers wa> held in
the ('.range hall Friday morning.
Lively discussions followed the
report on Alfalfa, and also on res
olutions presented hy committee.
The resolution that received the
most attention was: Resolved—-
j iliac the principles of Agriculture
should be taught in the public
schools. It was passed after the
presentation of strong arguments
on both sides.
C. Laßue Munson, Judge Von Moscli
zisker's Democratic opponent, ran fai
ahead of his colleagues in nearly all
interior counties anil greatly cut clown
the Judge's plurality in Philadelphia
as compared with that for Stober and
Sisson. Munson carried a large num
ber of counties that gave pluralities for
Stober and Sisson.
There was more cutting of the ten
amendments than was looked for, but
the best information at hand is that all
of them were adopted.
