THE GRANGE MEETING Tin- Autumn meeting of tlie Cape May Pomona practically opens the season for , grange work and interest in the county, rousing the activities that have laid low during the summer, when every energy was needed to feed the |H-ople of the inland who come to the shore for their (day spell. As Sirs. Madara has Said. "It takes cold weather to warm J ' Hp the .grange," that is. to give the ' leisure for it. |' The mis-ting at Rio Grande on 'Satur- i' day was with all the seven granges of i ' the emintv represented excepting Turk- ' •hoe. and which nt the hour of the j 1 meeting was attending the funeral of ' Hollis P. Miekle. one of its members. !V Some of these representatives were late

as no less than four parties coming by auto were <h lay n| by "blow outs". Owing to th" poor train service from the upper part of the County, some members ; arrived in the forenoon and were en- 1 tertabied at dinner, having chicken pot- j pie and all that goes with it and pump- j kin pie, the kind Walter Hand's wife makes, to tell of. The hanqu.-t proper was between sessions and left nothing to I*' desired but capaeity. There were two sessions, that of thej afternoon being for Pomona business j and only open to the Fifth Degree work, i and that of the evening in cliarge of the | Lecturer, A. D. T. Howell and ojs'n .to • all. At the afternoon meeting, the Wor- 1 thy Master, Frank E. Bate, presided ] and with Llewellyn Hildrcth the Oyer- ' »eer. and "Shop" Taylor the gatekeeper, ' in plaee. George Sayre didiij* come in, ; and Walter Hand acted in his stead. Eli , Town send, the secretary, elected at the j first meeting and attending every one , sine*', was at his desk. The reports from the . subordinate granges showed for progress. The Cold Spring Grange, gloried in the gift from two members John W. Wilbraham and. wife, of West Cape May, of a garage J and a line. of enclosed wagon sheds, and ' the land alongside the grange acre on 1 ' Which they were built; l>ias Creek I grange was holding exhibitions at itsj' meetings and the members were judges. ' Our week the finest kind of corn was 1 the exhibit and with pies of every ' known filling to be sampled: at an- 1 other it was all of apples. The next is(« to be of potatoes and cakqs. South i Besville had held a two-session poultry's institute and with State speakers giving , g illustrated lectures, and with coffee and f crullers between sessions. Stone Harbor ' t has added to its members even in the ' i' summer time, and had assisted at a j lawn party and which had added a h Bice little sum to the building fund for » its hall | d Two members, G. Oswald ami wife of ( * Court House weiV admitted by demit ii from the Shepherd s Ainmge of Cale- ' si donia. Vt., and Margaret E. Bell and 'a Ellen E. Meehan from the l)ias Creek ' c: Grange were obligated. Other appli-:d Cants, it was said, were detained some- jtl Vhere up the road. | v ur

Secretary Townsend's annual roport to the State Grange gave the member- j phip as 282. a gain of 2!» for the year. Tlie death of a charter member, llol- ' lis P.

Risl- y. of Stone Harbor, whom you all know and have1 learned to appreciate'." and Mrs. Belle Matthews reported the illness of John W. Wilbraham. of W<3 Cape May. Expressions of sympathy were ordered n nt to both. Both, it was said, were improving. A. 1). T.

Hand, with the -County Board of FVnAsMttn and as having h. en instrumental in securing an appropriation of 82,1*10 for Farm Demonstration in the County, aud also the request from the Freeholders of Judge Kldrvdge for the appointment of a County Board of Education to consider the question of establishing Vocational Tiain.ii" in the County: Brother Howell making this prvfatorv to asking thP >r-.na' what it thought of it. Th. P« -lions elider-.il the Freeholders" ac tint! and the Messrs. Howell. Pferaonan Ralph Tavlor were named to prepare the r-eelution which should say so for mailt, and which was adopted trith out ,** ' v lit a follows: "Wb res. We in favor of my

Tlie attendance dt- pomona was good . and had some trusted to Old Dobbin or I the train service' even, instead of the ' m-w-fangled motor machine and who didn't get tiler.' until it was over — and I some of them officers ut that — it would been a record showing.

AMERICAN PEOPLE BURDENED WITHOUT LOWERING PRICES Senator Reed Snioot, of Utah, who is regard ill as a national authority on the traiff and results of tariff changes, -The Democrats have laid an enormous burden on the American |icople and absolutely destroyed the sugar industry of the United States without riiluciiig the price of that commodity. "Sugar is a striking illustration ot the great blunder which the Democratic party committed in its passage of the tariff law of 11113,"' said Senator Snuiot. "Under this law tlie tariff duty on iii|Mirt»l sugar was reduced 25 per cent, and this commodity will automatically be plac.il on the free list on May 1, IBlfi. I will not dwell upon the effect of this law on the domestic sugar industry further than to say that 10 of our American suhar-h'-et factories have clos.il their doors since its passage. That the price of sugar to the consumer was not reduced by the 25 per cent reduction in the tariff rates i^ clearly borne out by authoritative statistics. for. as a matter of fact for 10 weeks prior to the outbreak of tbe war. in Europe, when normal conditions existed in the sugar market, the retail price of sugar was from onc-fiftli to one-third of a cent per pound higher than it was for eight weeks before the per cent reduction became effective, and during all this time the profits of the sugar refineries had increased about tlie same amount that the duty was do 1 creased. e-

"The Democratic biennial threats and 5 tlie insisten demand of sugar refineries for free sugar have prevented capital, always more- or less timid, from flowing into the industry as it would have flowed if it could have been assured of proper protection against the chi-ap-labor product of foreign countries. And because of this lack of a definite policy on the part of our Govern iiii'iit the American people will be filched of *4WI, 000,000 w ithin two years, ' an enormous price to pay for th." lack GERMANY'S ATTITUDE TOWARD THE MONROE DOCTRINE ' Germany is making loud protestations that if victorious in tlie great Eu- ' ropean war, she will respect the Monro.: Doctrine and not molest the I'nit^f' ; States. Our statesmen should n5t=£w- ' get. however, that German statesmen have dii-larcil a treaty a mere scrap of | hi per to be disregarded whenever ore-a--ion suits. The mere fart that anII'. unm -Snout is made that tlie Monroe N Doctrine will he resiH-etcil', is a suspic- ^ ions 'circumstance and should cause our government to hasten its means of defense. The announcement was totallv unnecessary if Germany really intended to keep faith. The old proverb "He who excuse* himself accuses himself," is (grtieiilurlv applicable in" this ca«o.
