Dr. Clark Is So years old and q native
Of North Carolina, was educated &C the
Friends school at Providence and at
Haverford college, near Philadelphia,
the largest Quaker college in the world.
He was graduated i'm medicine Mt the
University Of Pennsylvania, but in 1865
gave mp the practice to take the chair
Of Greek and Latin at Earlham. He be-
came n OF the most prominent preach
ers among the Friends in the United
States and in 1869 travelled abroad
and studied the oriental languages. He
vas for a time editor Of The Gospel Elk
positor and was practically the founder
of the theological school at Earlham, of
which he has since been the head. Last
summer he astonished his friends and
all the Quakers by asking for and re-
ceiving the rite Of baptism at Damas-
Gus, @.
When interviewed by the elders, DR..
Clark said he had long believed that
George Fox was In error On that point
and felt IL his duty to be baptized. The
elders replied that baptism by the HOLY
Ghost, as taught by George Fox, was
the only and true way i'm which q bless
ing could be bestowed by heaven, and
that Dr.. Clark had seriously offended.
He was given permission TO renounce
his conduct and to make amends by
true repentance, but the professor re-
fused. Accordingly he was relieved of
his pulpit work and the ban placed over
him until his trial.

The Mitchell Republican OF the Bird
inst. very ably nails a misrepresentation
of the Argus Leader on the wool ques-
ton as follows:
Argus Leader: "Under the exhorbit-
ant Mckinley law the price Of wool con
t~inually declined until it reached the
lowest point in history, seven cents for
Dakota product. Since the 70 law
went into effect the price has begun to
rise rapidly and is nov 40 per cent high-
or than it was on the first OF August"
Wool quotations in the Boston market
as to Dakota medium, was as follows on
the dates named: August 9, 13 q ID;
Sept. 8, Is q Is; Sept. q, 10 q IA, show
ing practically no change since August
/. Quotations on other territory woods
we're in proportion, much OF 1t lower.
On August 70, when free wool went into
effect, foreign wool advanced about IL
cents per pound, caused by the expand
ed market. But there vas no advance
in domestic woods. The highest price
wool has reached for years, was in 1850
to 1892, when the operations OF the Nc
Kinley law we're natural and untrammeI-
ed; but the extremely low price OF wool
in June and July, 1894, were as absolute
ly on a free wool basis AZ IL the new law
were in force, for It was an assured fact
and a foregone conclusion.
The Argus Leader also says that .the
prices OF wooden and cotton clothing
have declined since the new tariff went
into effect" Well, the markets do mot
show it, but as matter Of fact the woolen
schedule does not go into effect till JAM
uary ], 1896.
II is extremely funny TO see the ArRus-
Leader "boom the price of wool"
