A few days ago the Journal copied from
the New York World a portion Of a pur-
ported interview with DIR. Forbes Winslow,
the distinguished English alienist, now in
New York in attendance on a medical gath
ering. In this article the Doctor was
quoted as c~ondemning the use of the BIZ
cycle by women and as making the remark
able assertion that Its use tended to en-
courage grossness and immortality on the
part OF the riders. This outrageous opinion
excited a good deal of unfavorable COM
ment among the Journals readers. some OF
which. perhaps. reached the Doctors ears.
Cor he writes to this paper as follows. under
the date of Sept III sstrhere is no founda-
ton for the alleged statement Of mine on
lady bicyclists, which reflects on morality.
They are not my views and l never ex-
pressed such extraordinary ideas" The
Journal gladly gives place to the denial
and puts the gentleman right, not only for
his W sake. but because OF the use that
might otherwise be made of the alleged
opinion by opponents of the healthy and
wholesome pastime. He should hereafter
beware of the inaccurate and tricky inter-
viewers of the New York sensational press.

A Methodist Episcopal conference is a
little world of its own. 1t is a governing
body. it has its politics. its financial and
social interests. its general purposes and
aims. Its individual members, though duly
religious. are also men moved by ambi-
tions. by hopes and fears and perhaps by
sentiments less innocuous than these. 1t
becomes the business OF those in charge of
proceedings to adjust all warning elements,
to carry through the conference plans with
the least possible friction, to further the
work of the church as a whole ard to
advance Individual interests where these
seem to harmonic with the general
scheme. The machinery of the church is in
evidence in these conferences as in no
other Protestant determination, and very
smooth-working and perfect machinery it
is. Not all of those affected by its opera
tons are pleased with the results, but they
are well trained-partly through their dis
cipline as American citizens accustomed
to submitting to the will of the majority,
partly through their thoroughly estab-
lished faith in time-honored Methodist
methods. The conference to meet in this
city this week is very large. 1t will have
much business to transact and it will do
1t expeditiously and well. When its ses-
sions close the interests Of the church will
be advanced and. let II De hoped. the cause
OF religion. The greater number of minis
tiers in attendance will be satisfied; the
others will not rebel against b fate in
the persons of the bishop and his aids
gives them. Harmony will reign, possibly
through the exercise of the ~forceful wills
in command. but mainly because the breth-
rem are ready to work together for the
common good. even at the cost of a little
personal inconvenience and the sacrifice of
cherished hopes. The workings of a Meth
odist conference are of a sort to arouse
wonder and admiration in the minds of
those who look on. 1t is a wonderful or
ganization. and acquaintance with 1t as a
mere machine leavesinof room for surprise
as to the cause. of the success of the
church 1t represents. For even religious
work must be done with system If 1t is to
be effective. and the more complete the
general scheme OF work the more the in
dividual worker can accomplish.

CINCINNATI, April lS.-It is Just
made public that George Morrison,
one Of the cOunterfciters Of the two

in the Cincinnati postotlice Tues
day on decoy letter. He had sent
to the Chicago Tribune from Gin

to sell 1928 worth Of stamps for
800, and directing the answers to
be sent to George Morrison,
Monterey, Mexico. The Tribune
refused the advertisement and
turned over his letter to the United
States authorities. Thus the trap
was laid for his arrest. The officers
are reticent on the matter hoping
thereby to capture Morrison's ac-

Price $500 a Year
Another Side of tho Question.

To the LIGHT:
Every true American ought to
sympathiZe with the struggla OF
Cuba to free itself from the Span
ish yoke. So much is being said
about the "American Interference"
as though this government COM
mitted a great crime in allowing
revolutionary bands to form with
in the boundaries OF the United
States for the assistance of those
Islanders. 1t is indeed one OF the
weaknesses Of our nation as OF all
other nations that it soon fOrgets it's
own hard struggle for liberty. Did
not brave and enthusiastic men in
Germany and France, and even in
England leave their homes as Grew
olutionists transgressing all inter
national cOurteSies," and go and
fight with Washington to help him
drive out the tyrants from the new
world" Do the descendants of the
brave followers OF Washington
sympathiZe with the European
powers and potentates? If, as a
nation we cannot openly assist
the struggling Cubans, shall we
call them rebels in our leading
papers! Shame on such press in
the land Of the free!
Any nation trying to shake off
the letters Of European monarchist
institutions, il we cannot assist
them in any other way, they ought
at least to have our silent sympa-
thy. All hail to the brave Gu
bans few in numbers as compared
to their oppressOrs, to boldly arise
in defense Of liberty; America for
