pection with his nomination to the Supreme
Court bench, has been sold to Indiana Demo
crat, who proposes to make it serve new pur-
pose in the politicals campaign soon to be en-
tered upon in that State 1t is to be hauled
through the Hoosier State by four horses, with
driver and footman in gorgeous livery, as an
evidence of the present style of living in Wash
ipgton at Government expense. 1t may serve
the purpose that the gold spoons Of Van Buren,
did 10 the memorable log cabin and hard cider
campaign of 1910. Such an exposition of the
extravaganza of the Government, will not fail
of its effect upon the simple-minded, honest
people Of the West, who are c|amoriDg for a
more economical administration of our public
affairs.

amounting to $500. 900 in the branches through

ideas come red-hot from the heart. v
Hill often preached in Wales. He loved
the tone OF Welsh piety, because it was
"savory and we'll baked" No inclem-
cy of the weather hindered the gathering
OF the Welsh peasantry. Many time
did he stand through heavy shower
preaching to a vast concourse of these
hardy men, who seemed unconscious Of
the rain. he used TO tell his London

them at home on the Sabbath, "Ah, if
you loved the gospel as the Welsh do,
you would not mind a shower" The
pulpit labors Of Rowland Hill covered q
space of more than sixty years.
