democratic candidate for congress
from the sixth Missouri district The
Herald is in receipt of bundle of
the Dorman literature. from the

for Office whenever occasion presents
itself. His boom is destined to a
short life and will soon be numbered
among the many gone before. 1t is
certainly too bad that reputable
newspapers and respectable citizens
would, under the guise of friendship
lend their aid to the pretense
of furthering the political ambi-
tions of an irresponsible man only
to enjoy a good laugh at his expense.

large haciendas (farms or ranches) of the country it is customary to give each laborer a small tract of land for his own use. No charge is made for this. Owing to the fact that land is held in large tracts the owner can we'll afford to do this, as 1t enables him to secure his labor at less figure and renders it certain that they will not leave the place.

 Those who speak scornfully in rela. tion to the condition of the Mexican laboring class do so in exemp p1ifcation of their gross ignorance.

 There is nothing to prevent any one concocting a mixture and calling it "sarsaparilla," and there is nothing to prevent any one spending good money testing the stuff; but prudent people who wish to be sure of their remedy take only Ayers Sarsaparilla, and so get cured.

TORONTO, Feb. 3.-This week Archbishop
Walsh will address q letter TO the press
stating his position on the Manitoba
school question. This action on his part
is due to appeals made to him by the

Laurier, urging that his influence be ex-
erted in promoting unity among all sects.
In his letter the Archbishop will de-
clare that the question, which is local, can
best be settled by Manitoba. lie asserts
that Catholics are free TO vote as their
consciences dictates, but both Profess
tants and Catholics will be advised TO use
their influence in allying seciarian feel
ing and to ignore the voices OF h poll
ticians who are shrewdly striving to ex-
cite racial conflict. The Archbishop be-
ieves other questions in Canadian poll
tics TO be more important than the sep
arate school question and hopes that all
Catholics may realize this. This action
OF Archbishop Walsh Is directly opposed
to the views OF che hierarchy OF Quebec
and Ontario, and is expected to cause n

THE TELEPHONE CASES..
Solicitor General Moved for Their Ad-
vancement on the Docket.

wAsuISoToN. Feb. a.-In the Supreme Court
Of the United States today the solicitor-gen-
eral moved for the advancement ON the dock st
of the telephone cases involving tho validity
of the Berliner patent. asking to have the
hearing set for an early day in the next term.
He said In making the motion that IL was "a
case involving large interests, and IL was,
therefore, important to secure as early dis
position as practicable. The solicitor-genera
contends that the Bell telephone receiver,
having become public property, the Berliner
and Edison patents arc the only obstacles
which stand in the way Of the free use OF the
microphon transmitter in practical form,
and that with these patents out of the way,
the telephone would become so much cheaper
that its use would be widely extended. The
Edison patent, while not directly involved in
the suit, was issued under circumstances so
exactly identical with those which attended
the issue OF the Berliner patent, that the
government believes the decision of the pend
ing suit will settle the question of its validity
and TO all questions raised by the govern
ment. The ground upon which it is sought
10 cancel tho Berlirer patent is that it is a
fraudulent conspiracy in the patent office

Historic Church Burned in
Dorchester.
Meeting House Hill" Was
Ablaze This Morning.
Property Valued at $4,000 Totally
Destr0yed--It Was Insured.

Boston, Feb. 3.-The historic Fir
Unitarian Church on Injecting House
HILL" Dorchester, a familiar landmark
destroyed by fire this morning. The
amount is nearly covered by insurance.
Fou firemen were injured by a falling
wall on the east side, which completely
enveloped them, but they were rescued by
their comrades. The injured are:
CAPTAIN BLANCHARD Of Engine 2,
severely burned and internal injuries.
FIREMAN HoYr, Engine 20, wrist
broken and burned.
SAMUEL RIDLER, combination wagon,
burned about head me internal injuries.
JOHN GAVIN, ladder A, Dad scalp wound.
Captain Blanchard and fireman Rider
were conveyed TO the city hospital, while
the others were taken to their homes. 1t
is thought that all will recover.
The blaze broke out, presumably from
an overheated iue in the basement, soon
after 7 O'Clock and spread SO rapidly that
three alarms we're rulg in rapid success
sion, but in less han half an hour the
building was doomed, the whole interior
becoming a roaring furnace.
The fire started in the front part OF the
building. The most valuable appurten-
ances of the church were kept in the ves-
try at the rear OF the church, SO that
there was time for them to be saved.
A new organ, presented to the church
by Deacon Henry Humphrey, in 1892,
which was directly above the place where
the fire started, was soon eaten up and the
flames began climbing the steeple. in
which were the STOCK ana the chime Of
bells.
The charred spire fell just before 8
O'Clock, but it toppled over into the ruins
and no II was hurt. Alter about two
hours, the firemen succeeded in putting
out the fire, but only a shell OF the rear
walls of the church were left. The build
ing is a total less.
The church was built in 1915 and was
one Of the Oldest in this section. The
society, however, is much older and dates
its existence back to 1880. The celebra-
tion of the 250th anniversary of the
chufelsyS1e-y ears ago, was one of the most
noteworthy occasions In the history of
Dorchester, as the Governor and many Of
the state and city dignitaries attended.
The bell in the steeple of the church,
which fell with the rest of the clock work
this morning, was the gift of the Slough
ton Society in 1920, and was recast in
1868, after it had become cracked from it's
frequent use in ringing for recruits for
the war of the rebellion. The hill on
which the church stood was the site of
the founding OF the first church of the
town of Dorchester, and the surrounding
attest the age Of the con munity.

POLICY OF RETALIATION.
Regarding German Exclusion of Ameri-
can Life Insurance Companies.

New YORK, Feb. 3.-The resolution
calling on the President for all CORE
~spondence between the United States
and Germany regarding the exclusion of
American life insurance companies, from
Germany, which has Just passed the
House, is said to he a move toward a pol
icy of retaliation against Germany. The
author of the resolution, Representative
George N. Southwick OF Albany, N. Y,
gives this explanation of It's purpose:
president, Cleveland, in his last annual
message to Congress, called attention to
the policy of retaliation which was icing
practiced in Germany against American
life insurance companies, as well as Ameri-
can cattle and cereals, and suggested re-
taliation on the part of the United states
il such a course could be devised. New
York is the first State to take action, n
in both TIE Senate and Assembly of its
Legislature q measure has been Intro
duced which provides that all foreign In
surance companies shall be denied n
and every privilege in the transaction OF
business within the State which Is not
accorded to American companies In the
home states of these foreign corporations.
sThe German policy of retaliation
against American life insurance compan-
les has thus far been confined to Prussia
Until recently four of the big New York
companies had been trapsacting BUSH
ness in that portion of the German en-
pire. Only one still continues operations.
"The Prussian minister Of insurance,
Mr.. Koeler, by one arbitrary requirement
after another, finally forced the American
companies out of the field"

HOME FOR DESTITUTES.
Continuation Of Investigation of Charges
Against the Superintendent.

WHITE PLAINS, N. y, Feb. 3.-The
investigation into the charges made
against Superintendent Jas. Pierce of the
West Chester Home for Destitu te Child
rem was continued in this village today.
Superintendent Pierce is accused of
cruelty and inhumanly treating the young
inmates of the home. The justice testified
that three years 9 be sent tive children
to the home from Armoneck. He said that
wien he went TO the home, TWO days
later, 10 see how the chtfdTen were get
ting along, he found them in irons. He
said that the children had told him they
were cruelty treated Immediately after
they reached the home.
The text witness was Samuel Evans,
who testified that he was a former inmate
of The West Chester Temperate's Home.
He said he had been brutally treated by
the superintendent. Evans testified that
without any cause in some instances he
was Knocked down by the superintendent
by n blow and that he was often beaten
while he lay on the floor. He said that he
was often laid on a bench while he was in
an almost naked condition and was beat
en- with a cat-o'-nine-tails. He said that
the superintendent beat him so terribly
once that the blood came from the cuts
and that he showed scars of the result of
the beatings for three weeks afterward.
Evans said that one night he was beat
en- in bed and cried out in his agony.
Then Evans said the superintendent stop
ped beating him, but the next day beat
him again because he cried the night be-
fore when he was being chastised. He
said the superintendent evidently had a
grudge against all the inmates, for they
al received their share of punishment.
Evans said that he saw other children ter
ribly beaten besides himself. The super
intendent, Evans said. paid no attention
to the cries of his victims.
Evans stated that one time he saw five
children tied together by a chain SO that
they could hardly move about.
