Congressman Reed of Maine, speaking
at the Home Market club dinner in Bos-
ton the other evening, undertook to give
his hearers an idea of what the recent
Republican victories amounted to, and
said
The retributiOn has certainly been tre-
mendOus. You don't half realize how
immense it was. When, in 1910, the
people rose in such wrath that 1910 has
been in American politics the symbol of
an Alpine avalanche. the house of rep
resentativcs only changed from II Demo
cratic to 81 Whig, change of -, and
even when you add oneh half for Increase
of size, YOU have only 9S for total.
When Franklin Pierce swept the
country in 1852, the Wings lost but l3
seats. In the great upheaval of 1874.
which exceeded that of 1880. 30 Republic
can majority was changed to 45 Demo-
cratic majority, and the South assumed
that solidty which has been the mis-
fortune of this country ever since. The
total change then was IN.
The change a week ago last Monday
was 23S. If you take of 30 tor increase
of the house, you sill have Il change of

country, and so far as / now recall, of
any legislative body in any free govern
ment in this world. II would mean a
change of 800 in the British house of
commons. If 2j0 members of the house
of commons had been knocked out at

statesman, still in the air, would have
ventured to say, even 500 miles from ms

high school team on Thanksgiving day
in Grand Rapids. In consequence of the
event the Park Congregational church
of that city postponed its annual

THE VOICE OF ONE CRYING IN THE
WILDERNESS.


Charles NJ. Wilds, in his address as
president of the Vermont State Bar as
sOciation, at its last meeting, sounded Il
ringing note for reform in legal pro-
cedure in the following strong but true
language:

A(sOOl Man,

A correspondent of Cumberland
Ne,cs writes the following article in
memorial OF the late David Jones,
wellknown as ''David Jones Shaft"
He was born in Llanelly, Monmouthshre,
Wales, but he spent the greater part of his
life in Wales in the neighborhood of
Rumney, Tredgar and Sirhowy. 1t was from
the latter place he emigrated to America in
1854 He lived for eight years at Mt Savage,
Nd, then went to Borden Shaft, Md, where
he resided for twenty-eight years, and until
advancing years, and failing health compelled
him to give up work. Four years ago he
removed to Frostburg, where he continued to
reside until his death. No one thought his
end was so near but his children and grand
children can console themselves with the re-
Election that Mr.. Jones had early made pre-
parations for the coming of the Son of Man.
He was man of many virtues; faithful
husband, indulgent and affectionate father,
a friendly neghbor, charitable and always
ready to help those in need. AS a christian
he was himself, and an example worthy Of
emulation, though small of body, he had a
large share of information: and it may be
said of him, as was said of Isaac Watts, that
his worth should not be measured by the
size of stone, of gold and silver, but by the
extent of his knowledge, the amount of his
usefulness, and the number of his good or
great deeds. Mr.. Jones worked faithfully in
his Masters vineyard; he served as deacon,
treasurer and trustee of the Frostburg Con-
gregational church for twenty five years
under many disadvantages, especially the
distance from his dwelling place to his place
of worship. He was Jealous Christian. and
was not ashamed to confess his Master every
where, and we have no doubt that the Master
confessed him. He left two daughters and
several grandchildren. The funeral took
place the Wednesday following, and the
large concourse present testified to the esteem
in which Mr.. Jones was held. Mr.. Richard
Harris had charge of the singing, which was
excellent. Rev. e. w. Moore, pastor of the
Congregational church, of which Mr.. Jones
was a member, otfcated at the house,
church and cemetery. f. II. f.. p.
