preston it has decided to offer list OF

ness, advocate the merits of this or that
preacher. Two things are of the first
Importance in order to hope for success
The first is to make selection of 4
preacher who is possessed Of qualities
essential to popularity. Having selected
q candidate the second step is to work
for his success. Let one secure all the
ballots possible and at the same time stil
up interest and activity in others. De.
lay in securing ballots are as dangerous
rs delays in other matters. It would
worry one much to learn that his or he1
candidate might have been elected by
q slight extra effort. A few votes may
be the difference between the winners
and losers. Hence the importance OF
early and persistent activity in securing
ballots. The plan of determining who
the most popular minister is, is given in
order that all may thoroughly under.

Popular Preacher Contest.

The votes for the most popular
preacher continue to come in.
The friends of the ministers have be.
gun to work in earnest. There is rea-
son to believe that some will hold back
votes. There is no reason for and
nothing can be gained by this course.
This contest is a perfectly fair one and
will be to the end.
Request is made that those sending in
any number Of votes will please write
plainly upon the outside of the envelope
the number of votes sent. They will
also be careful to cut out the ballot, no
more and no less, trimming it neatly to
the line. They will likewise avoid roll
ing them them. Observance of these
three simple injunctions will greatly
abridge the labors at this office.
The interest in tn result in some quar-
ters is extraordinary. Many of the
friends of the preachers are greatly con-
cerned as though it meant suit of
clothes or cane or portrait for them
personally. They employ all their elo-
quence to persuade friends that their
own particular candidate is the best and
most deserving of popular support. At
the present writing the following minis
tiers have received votes, the names
being given in order according to the
number of votes received:
Rev. J. T, Jenifer, Chicago.
Rev. ID. Anderson, Louisville, XIV.
Rev. j. w. Dunjee, Minneapolis.

The Plain English of Tt.

Those who argue that if the state
has the right to compel parents to
give their children instruction in En-
glish it may also prohibit the teach
ing of German and instruction in re-
ligion, must feel alarmed by the ac-
ton of the supreme court. The SUI
preme court has decided that the
state prohibits Bible readingi in public
schools. Is thereany alarm felt that
the state prohibit the reading of the
Bible il the parochial schools? Pro-
hibiting the use of the Bible is morein
the line of prohibitory extension than
declaring that English shall betaught.
