Hereafter the Maine Central railroad will
receive for carriage no molasses in packages
larger than barrels, except at the owners risk
OF damage by reason of inefficient or defec-
tive cooperage and prepayment of freight
charges through to destination.
1t was the general expression OF the meeting
that this action of the road would result in
great injury to this branch of their business
one in which the profits are very small now.
Consumers have for long time insisted that
the Wholesale dealers should pay freight
charges; at the same time they are not willing
to pay the slight ad vance that would be neces-
STATED should such course be adopted by the
wholesale dealers.
A committee, consisting of Charles Nc
Laughlin, W. Fl. Woodbury. and Weston f.

road officials and report at a future meeting.

tenburg, whore Luther was now professor, on
the 10th of December, the bull of excommuni-
cation was issued Janury 6, 1921.
The Papal legate now demanded the ban of
the empire against Luther, but the imperial
estates would not permit it until he had been
heard. The Emperor, Charles V, granted q
safeguard, and Luther repaired to Worms,
against the urgent advice of his friends say
ing, Though there were as many devils in
Worms as there are tiles on its roofs, still
would enter" This "most splendid scene in
history" was enacted April 17-18, 1921. After
having been questioned concerning the books
he had written, and asked to recant certain
opinions and doctrines, he finally closed two
hours speech with the following brave words,
in Latin: UNLESS shall be convinced by the
testimonies of the Scriptures, or by evident
reason (for believe neither Pope nor councils
alone, since it is manifest they have often
erred and contradicted themselves,) am
bound by the Scriptures / have quoted, and
nay conscience is held captive by the word of
GOD, and as 1t is neither safe nor right to act
against conscience, cannot, and will not re-
tract anything" He then added. in German:
Here stand; l cannot otherwise; God help
me. Amen" On his return from Worms,
Luther was seized. by order of his friend and
protector, the elector Frederick. for his safety,
and shut up for ten months in the Wortburg
Castle. Here he did much of his work in
translating the Bible into German, and it was
while here that he hurled his ink bottle at the
Devil. Final efforts were made in 1546 by
Vergerius, papal nuncio; sent to Wittenburg
by Pope Paul III, but Luther regarded it as
farcical, and met the legate, who came in
great state, with full sense of the humor OF
the position" Luther disd Feb. Is, 1916.
Mr.. Williams visited the scenes of Luther's
activity in 1870, and SO was able to add much

opened with Luther's ga Mighty Fortress, .
and other pieces Of his music were also intro
duced.
DR.. Hill took his text from Ezekiel xii, 80:
L sought for . man . that should .
stand in the gap" He opened with some OBJ
servations upon the relation of great men to
their times; they were generally opponents as
well as creators OF the general tone of thought.
The inspiration of God was not bounded by
narrow lines; He poured out His spirit upon
al flesh, and thus prepared an audience for
those whom He lifts to higher planes. After
briefly illustrating this point by other ex-
amples, DR.. Hill passed to a consideration of
Luther; his preparation for his work, and the
preparation of the German people to accept it,
The influence of Luther was so great, partly
because Luther was SO entirely and thoroughly
one of the people. That influence had beeu
felt not only on the religion Of Christendom,
but also in its literature, its art, and even its
science. The religious awakening of the 18th
century had been one of the chief causes of
the revival OF science in the 18th, and of
philosophy in the 18th. The power BY which
Luther thus moved the world was doubtless
partly in the preparation of the world for his
action, partly in the truth and righteousness OF
his cause; but largely from the weight of char
acter given him by his burly strength of BODY
and mind. His mind was one of great practi-
cal power, strong common sense and sound
judgment. He saw that there can be no true
liberty except in obedience to law. The great
lessons to be learned to-day from contempla-
ton of Luther's grand success were the lessons
of fidelity to conscience and to the spirit OF
Christian liberty. Fidelity to the principles of
the Reformation did not require assent TO all
the opinions OF Luther, or of Calvin; much
less wild dissent, and capricious abnse of
liberty; but rather an unfinching adherence
to faith in God, loyalty to Christ, and charity
to man.

do, left open for settlement, and the greater
part of it is mesa land, that will require a
heavy expenditure Of labor and capital to
utilize. A movement has been inaugurated
here to put those lands under irrigation, and
a party will leave here about the fifteenth of
November to commence operations. Their
plan is to build some twenty-five miles Of
bitches, and take the water from the North
and Smiths fork of the Gunnison. The esti.
mated cost to complete the work will be fifty
thousand dollars, and the plan is to allow
every settler taking up land under the said
bitches, a perpetual water right for Just what
it will cost to supply his isproportion of water,
and he secure that right by buying stock,
with either cash or working on contract, at
the regular contract price for cScavating.
If the plan Of the projectors of the scheme
can be successfully carried out and not be
interrupted, that part Of the country will
dcvelope with rapidity never before seen
in the west. The altitude is about $500 feet,
and the climate unsurpassed in the whole
State.

The ISnullislGnu.

One of the best portions of Delta county
and one that has been very much overlooked
in making up an estimate of her resources, is
what is known as the mouth OF the Roubideau
or Roubideau's Ford. There are six or seven
ranches located there, all wcll-lying, splendid
producing land, peopled by some Of the rep.
resentative pioneers of the county, hard.
working, honest, respectable folks, who have
settled on this small park, and have been
using their best endeavors in clearing their
lands, fencing. ditching, and doing such pre-.
liminary work in opening up their ranches
for proper cultivation. The past season was
mostly spent in such dead work as is usual
in newly settled places, and but little land
was put under cultivation. Next season will
tell different tale with these people.
Their bitches are to n great extent about
built, and water will be abundant by another
year. What little was done the past season
in cultivation has convinced the settlers that
they have not been mistaken in the choice Of
their locations.
Among those who have settled here are
Messrs. Hoy, Standlich, B. +. Coleman and
son Clark, Stone, Beatty, Wilson, Hutchison
and Cole and Kclso. Several other ranches
have been opened up the past season which
will be heard from in time.
