They Should cooperate.

The Pulpit and the Press are words
appropriately grouped in common use,
not only because they make a pleas
ant alteration, but from the fact that
they stand for the two greatest educa-
tionaI and uplifting forces in the
world to-day. Not only this, but they
are singularly fitted for the co-opera-
ton which each alike needs to secure
the best results of its own peculiar
work.
1t is no matter, however, of common
observation, that they not only do not
cooperate, but that something little
less than hostility or jealousy often
characterizes the attitude of the Pull
pit towards the Press, and that the
compliment is too often returned with
neglect and Indifference.
Admitting thst many pleasant ex-
ceptions may be made to the general
application of this statement, and
without, assuming that the Press is
entirely blameless, one element of ir
ritatiou may be located without an
"X" ray. 1t lies on the surface.
Many clergymen frequently inveigh
against the Press with unstinted abuse
and the most sweeping and uncondi-
tional denunciation, using such
phrases as, "The papers always lie,"
or mo one can believe anything they
say" or They habitually and con-
stantly falsify."
1t is al obscure newspaper man in
deed who has not heard this time and
again, and this lie direct so unjustly
given has never failed to be exceeding
ly offensive.
No editor could reasonably object to
having specific errors criticised, but
this is vastly different than to have
motives impugned and the whole
course of all the Press sweepingly de-
nounced.
Even clergymen must admit that
when the Press makes no other retalia-
ton than that of neglect, which of
course leads to alienation, it can hard
ly be accused of demonstrating much
resentment.
But is there not remedy for this
regretable condition?
We think that the two following
very simple and obviously proper
methods could be effectively
adopted =
l. Let clergymen substitute specific
criticism for the present sweeping and
indiscriminate attacks in which they
now indulge.
?. Let clergymen appreciate and &C,
knowldge the courtesies continually
being granted them by the Press, in.
stead of receiving them ungraciously
in silence, or being so effusive in com
pliment as to convey the impression o.
sincerity IN Newspaperdom.

MISSOURI DEMOCRATS
Call Q neeting to Choose National conven.
tlon Delegates

Call Q neeting to Choose National conven-
tlon Delegates
EXCELSIOR SPRINGS, Mo-, Jan. 25.-The
Democratic state central committee met
here today and decided to hold the state
convention for selecting delegates to the
national convention at Sedalia April 15.
The committee decided to disobey the Per.
tie Springs resolution, which named st.
Louis as the proper place to hold the con.
vention. on the ground that ST. Louis is a
gold town and that they are afraid of its
influence.
The early talk was over the place for
holding the delegate convention. The
single standard men took delight in telling
the silver men that they were trying to get
out of their instructions. This increased
the bad feeling between the two factions,
which leaders had hoped to keep down
Sedalia's delegation, to secure the conven.
ton, worked hard and encouraged the
silver men in their dissatisfaction.
The committee, in executive session,
adopted a resolution instructing that nc
county conventions to select delegates to
the Sedalia convention shall be held before
April l. There is a preamble to the reso-
luton which says that this is for the pur-
pose of preventing any county committee
from taking snap Judgment and calling
local conventions without giving time for
discussion.

TRANSVAAL PRISONERS

Peril

Are Not Believed to Be In Serious
WASHINGTON, Jan. 25.-The state de-
partment today gave out the following
statement: Manian, consular agent at
Johannesburg, cabled Secretary Olney as
follows: Prisoners are out on parole, ex-
cept Hammond. whose case differs from
that of the others in that Hammond
signed constitutional invitation to
Jameson to come to Johannesburg in case
of extreme peril. Jameson marched
towards Johannesburg, however, before
the trouble arose. When this was dis
covered the American and other leaders
issued procIamations calling on the people
to refrain from hostilities. Instead of in
citing rebellion. Hammond, in the be-
ginning, raised the .rransvaal flag, and in
all his movements was in favor of al
legiance. Clement and other Americans
took arms from many and sent them home.
party. There was no disturbance, nor a
single act of hostility. Arms we're
peaceably surrendered, and every effort
made to maintain the republic as against
encroachment. The cases against the
American prisoners arrested will be tried
in court, though the government has not
yet indicated the time of prosecution.
Manian adds that the Transvaal govern
ment has acted magnanimously. In view
of the foregoing it is believed here that
neither Hammond nor any other Ameri-
partment has cabled Manian to use the
most active and vigorous measures for the
relief of the Americans, and to that end
make the Transvaal government direct
representations on behalf of the United
States.

ers seized prior to the Paris award. 1t re-
mains only for the president to submit a
plan to congress, and as the legislative
branch refused to pay lump sum for the
seizures, it is considered certain that the
commissions arrangement will be ap-
proved.
1t is likely that the president, in sub
mitting the plan to congress may suggest
once more the desirability of a lump pay
ment as the most expeditions means of
settlement for the commission of arbitra-
ton, if agreed to, will bind the United
States to any payment which may far ex-
ceed the lump sum proposed.
The commission is to be composed of
one American commissioner, one British
commissioner, and an umpire to be
snnI sonnet of the commission has not been aea
suggested, but there is a belief that the
president of Switzerland will be asked to
act as umpire, or some one designated by
the Swiss president, if the sessions of the
commission necessitate the presence of the
umpire in this country.
In view of the pending request of the
Venezuelan commission to the British gov
ernment, Sir Julian's call at the state de-
partment on the Bering sea matter led to
some comment as to Great Britain's prob
able answer to the letter of Justice Brewer,
transmitted through Secretary Olney. but
it is understood that the ambassador had
no information to impart on this subject
and that the British foreign office has not
given any intimation as yet as to its pur-
pose. There is reason to believe, however,
that there will be no action on the Brewer
letter within month or more, as the re-
quest will go through the usual slow chan
nels of diplomacy. The answer of Vene-
zuela is expected to be delayed until Feb.
ruary IA, as the mail transmission of the
request and answer will take until then.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 25.-The sub-com-
mittee on shipping of the senate commit
tee today decided to report adversely the
free shipping bill providing for the admis-
sion of foreign-built ships to American reg
listers.
This bill had been recommended by the
secretary of the treasury and the commits
soner of navigation.
The negative vote was unanimous, in
cluding the three Democratic members of
the committee, German, Murphy and
White. The subcommittee authorized a
favorable report on Senator Frye's bill to
repeal the provision in the existing tonnage
tax law which relieves the vessels of other
countries, to which the vessel belongs, sim
ilarly relieve our vessels.
1t is understood that the administration
is favorable to this bill. 1t is regarded by
some as an effort at retaliation at Germany
for her exclusion of American products.

Formerly the bonds had been fixed al

NEW YORK, Jan. 25.-The report that
the young Duchess of Marlborough was to
have her life insured for the benefit of the
duke is confirmed in a private letter. The
amount applied for is 100000. An ap-
plication has been made and a medical re-

that they will accept the risk, for they
will receive big premium and get other
benefits. Besides, the British companies
like to mortgage the lives of aristocracy.
This will be one of the. largest, if not the
largest risk, ever taken. 1t will I'M
