bers of the Methodist church in this coun-
try.
1t is reported that a new church, called
the American Methodist church. is about
to be organized by some white and colored
ministers in the south.
Bishop Tucker of Uganda ordained seven
men to the ministry recently, two of whom
are the greatest chiefs in the country and
govern great provinces.
The Rev. Charles Houston opened ball

Democratic Lack Of Independence.

| Representative Geary of California is a
Democratic member of Copgress-ons of
many who does not hesitate to express his
vigorous disapp-oval of the Wilson bill.
In the course Of recent conversation Mr..
Geary said II wish could play Wilson's
part for short time. If could, would
fl that bill so its father wouldn't know it.
1 would lift the scalp of that infant, sure.
Mr.. Reed who was present, shook his head
sorrowfully, and then .drawled: Too bad.
Geary, too bad! Only think of it Instead
of scalping that baby you will be obliged to
kiss it,"
Mr.. Reeds remark was an accurate de.
scription Of the situation. Lots of Democrat
ic members are disguised with the Wilson bill
and so express themselves. 1t nauseates
them.
In its industry killing provisions they
read their own political doom, and yet, when
the rack of the Cleveland whip 10 heard q
large portion of these very men will stink 10
to line to vote for it. The Democratic party
l
loves master. Its rank and file are easily
1 led to mistake bull-headedness and egotism
for genius and courage. There are 4 few
men of independent character in it, ranks
but their number 10 80 small that they serve
merely to give emphasis to the AFFECT and
cringing slavishness of the others. This il
the political organization that coming into
power in year of unparalleled pros
perity and plenty has succeeded in few
short months in bringing about the worst
condition of business depression, the most
Widespread idleness and want that the
country has known for fifty years. IL il
any wonder that the people are signing for
a change.

The time for the law abolishing the dis
trict system and substituting the town sys'

ing near at hand. The law involves the
appraisal of all school property in the
seversl districts, the inhabitants being as
ses ,ed to pay for it. Then sum equal to
the value of the property will be divided
pro rata among the districts. The OBJ
ject of this is to equalize the owner
ship of school property. Some districts
have fine school building which the citi-
zen, taxed themselves to erect, while others
have house which is not much more than
shed. 1t would not be fair to turn this
property all over to the town and let each
property owner share equally. The law
coniemplates cutting off wesk schools, and
sending pupils to schools adjacent, where
the advantages arc better; or two or more
weak schools will be consolidated. This
will be necessary if the schools throughout
a town are to be maintained an equal length
of time.
