When we take the New Testament in
hand at any hour-but most fttingly in
the dewy freshness of the morning ere
worldly cares have come in to distract our
thoughts, or in the evening twilight when
the labor Of the day is done-and open it at
the Gospels or the Acts, the Epistles or the
Revelation, it does not seem like anything
that we read anywhere else. II is not like
other books Indeed we cannot think Of 1t
as human composition, as mere litcra-
ture, OF history, or philosophy 1t is more
like a living personality. Not unfrequent-
ly in our spiritual experience we are in a
Kind Of trance, with senses dead to out
ward objects, while wondrous inspirations
drop down from above.
At times it seems as if we heard a voice,
loving, gentle voice, and yet that speaks
in n tone Of authority; that comes from an
infinite distance and yet comes so neal
that it penetrates the very soul; that en-
tiers into our sense of guilt with its fore
bodings, and yet whispers Of pardon and
peace, until the trembling heart vibrate'
with Joy that is not Of this world What
is it in the Bible that gives it this mys
terious pOwer2 Il is not mere poetry o.
eloouence, however much they may over
flow in the psalms and the prophets IL il
not genius: it is divinity. It is God speak
ing to men, and therefore speaking in the
language of men-with human voice
though with a divine love and tenderness

The Minneapolis insurance underwrit-
ers are at it again, The association
seems on the verge of disruption. But
it is doubtful if matters are allowed to
go that far. The feeling seems to pre-
vail that the companies will not allow
the agents to break up the association.
The present unstable feeling OF the as
ISOLATION is engendered by the circula-
ton of the following circular among
some of the biggest agencies in the
city:
Whereas, 1t having become apparent and
firmly believing that several important Sec
tons of the Minneapolis Underwriters assO-
citation have been.and are now being, violated,
and more especially as regards section H.
whereby the rebating OF commissions on
grain in MINNEAPOLIS terminal elevators and
other target risks in our city, is being done,
and which, by such violation, certain agents
have secured entire control of said business
to the detriment of the majority of agents
interested; and
Whereas, 1t is apparent that section 20 of
the association has also become null and
void by being openly violated; and
Whereas, Under the peculiar situation of
affairs 1t is also apparent that a conviction
for such violation is utterly impossible
Therefore we. the undersigned members of
the Minneapolis Underwriters association,
in view of the fact that there seems to be no
redress for such CO tinued violation of the
articles of the association, and deeming 1t an
injustice to our companies and ourselves to
be thus longer handicapped, and desiring to
be placed on an equal footing with all other
agents. do declare from this date that we are
not legally or morally bound or under further
obligations to said association; and we here
by withdraw from the same, demanding the
return of our certificates of deposit.
The trouble all arises. as has been
pointed out i'll the GLOBE before,
through the inability of the association
to amend Its own articles of agreement.
1t is extremely difficult for the associa-

Why w. w. Wait and the Press
Committee Disagree.


The convention press committee and
Wallace W. Wait have not yet agreed
as to whether he shall have the man
agement of the New York Life build
ing newspaper hotel during the conven-
ton. Mr.. Wait has offered to take the
building, pay all the costs of fitting 1T
up and conducting it and depend for
reimbursement upon the patronage.
This offer naturally led the COMMITTEES
to ask how much Mr.. Wait Intended TO
charge the newspaper men who VIII
make the building their home. His
answer showed that he intended to
charge more than the committee thinks
should be charged. So all negotiations
are at standStill for the present. lie

and it is possible that he and the com
mittee may get together on the matter
of rates.
Gen. A. S. Warren, Montana's rep

property involved was over a million
dollars. so Gen. Warren can afford to be
a Republican committeeman. His visit

CONDITION OF LABOR.
Pope Leo XIII and Henry George
Before the Tax League.

rope Leo ALI anu ft0DfY NeOrSe
Before the Tax League.
The single tax league last night dis
cussed the subject that has recently oc-
cupied the attention of the two great
philosophers, Henry George and Pope
Leo XIII, namely, the condition of
labor. c. j. Buell. read section of the
first chapter of Henry Georges letter
in reply to the pope's encYclical, and
when he had concluded the ma tier
was thrown open for general discus
sion. DIR. Finnegan took issue with
pies wants being all supplied by land.
There were other wants, the doctor
maintained. that were part of the
human race that could be filled without
land, though his explanation of those
wants was rather obscure. All happi-
ness arose from the supply of wants.
and thereby expressed the harmony
of Gods and natures laws. There was
want in every government, the doctor
said, and it was that of the nations sub
sistence. Every nation had to formu-
late some method for supplying the
wants of the people. The method
adopted was that OF taxation, but the
present system in vogue was obnoxious.
However, we're henry Georges theories
to be adopted. all would be we'll and in
harmony with the law of God.
G. j. Bnell said there was one kind of
tax that the people paid ungrudgingly.
1t was the system of special assess
mments, where 1t was done equitably
and full value was received. OF course,
when it came to the payment of rentals,
where the landlord demanded as much
as the land was really worth, it was
only just that the oppressed should re-
gister kick. The people in this city,
he said, who had to pay rentals,
paid more annually than the whole
of the property was worth under the
single tax system. Maj. S. A. Buell.
found an Inconsistency in Henry
Georges letter, under the present con-
dition of society. 1t was where Henry
George advocated the absolute and ex-
elusive right of ownership OF thugs pro-
duced by labor by the producers. 1t
could not be done, for this right OF own
ershp was forced to be destroyed in
cases where the public was to be bene-
flied. A spirited discussion followed on
land values and what constitutes the
same.

Distillery stock in Court.

Another case which recalls the down.
fall of the Minneapolis Distilling COM
pany was filed with the clerk of the
district court yesterday. George d.
Vetter is the plaintiff this time and
Charles M. Bennett the defendant. The
complaint states that Vetter traded $500
worth of personal property to Bennett
for $3.50 worth of stock in the Minneap-
oils Distilling company. Bennett was
at that tina director of the company,
and, Vetter alleges, assured Vetter that
the stock was steadily increasing in
value and that the company was as
sound as rock financially. Vetter now
says that all the representations were
false and that Bennett knew they were
false when he made them. But he SIM
ply asks that the $500 worth of personal
property be returned, and in addition
that Bennett pay $3.50 for the trouble
Vetter has been put to and the retention
of the personal property since August,

IN THE CLUTCHES AGAIN.
John Anderson, the Burglar, Capt
ured by Detectives.

ufeu ny DCCcCIlVc5.
Inspectors Lawrence and Mallon made
a good catch yesterday afternoon, and
in consequence feel jubilant. William
MilIer'S residence, at 272l Fifteenth ave-
nue. south, was burglarIzed yesterday
afternoon while the occupants were
away. A lot of valuable jewelry, silver
ware and wearing apparel were taken
away, and the owners felt more or less
discOnsolate over their losses. The de-
tectives were put OH the case, and sue
ceeded in landing the burglar while in
the act of disposing Of some of the
booty at Washington avenue second
hand store. He was taken to the CEN
trail station and locked up. The detect
ives recognized in him an old-time
offender, who had but recently returned
from Saltwater, where he served two
terms, one for burglary and the other
for horse stealing. He is a Swede, and
his name is John Anderson.
When captured he told the inspectors
that he had burglariZed house that
same afternoon, though he did not know
where it was or who lived there. He
confessed to the Miller burglary, and
stated that he was rather glad he was
caught, for he had been having run
of hard luck lately. Two months ago
he broke into James Lawrence's barn
and carried off a lot of valuable robes
and whips. The offense for which he
was sentenced to Saltwater on one oc-
casion was the robbing Of A. j. Board
mans residence.

ton to get 80 per cent of the members
to agree on certain changes in the artl-
cles of agreement. And it is curious
fact that the men who are now so anx-
ious to change the articles of agreement
are the men who, when the ASSOCIATION
was formed, insisted that the 80 per
cent vote proyiso be Incorporated in the
articles. The association is scheduled
to hold its annual meeting soon. and
the troubles that have been crowdlng
thick for the past few months are ex-
pected to come to head at that time:
1t is almost foregope conclusion that
Judge William Leach will not be re,
elected to the position of manager ana
secretary. Some of the agents predict
that there will be gay time in the city
in the way of rate cutting before the an
nual meeting puts stop to all the quar-
reling among the agents.

voting continued until 4 O'Clock, when
the polls were closed. 1t resulted in a
victory for those who are in favor of the
enlargement by plurality of nineteen
votes. The cash wheat men were the
ones who favored it, for the reason that
at present they are greatly hampered in
their business by lack of space.
