Charles Dickens, in 1913, heard Father
Taylor at the Bethel and has left his i'm
pressions of him in his American Notes,
where he describes the man as follows :
"He handled his text in ali kinds of
ways, and tw listed it in all manner of
shapes; but always ingeniously and with
rude eloquence well adapted to the COM
prehension of his hearers. Indeed, if be
not mistaken, he studied their sympa-
thies and understandings much more
than the display of his own powers. His
imagery was all drawn from the sea, and
from the incidents of a seaman's life, and
was often remarkably good.'
Miss Bremen, think it was, after hear
ing Father Taylor, said: "There are two
cataracts in America, that at Niagara and
Father Taylor"
John Ross Dix in his pulpit Portraits
OF Distinguished American Divines', pub
lished in 1854, pays a glowing tribute to
he sailor preacher, Father Taylor. lie
says: son goes Father Taylor with his
sermon. After proceeding for about
quarter of an hour he gets fairly warmed
up to his work; and now pushing his
bible to one side of the cushion and
throwing up his spectacles, he pours
forth a passionate flood of oratory. AT
one moment he draws you picture of
the most touching pathos, so that your
eyes will moisten and your lips culver;
and the next some sharp sarcasm or
whitening denunciation, or scorching
sative causes you to wonder at the old
mans energy. Touches of true poetry
are not infreanent. and 7 have heard as

, During the course of the subsequent
proceedings, a letter written by Cap
tain Lemoier was read, repeating an
alleged conversation with Dreyfus,
when the latter is said to have stated
that he followed the German maneu-
yers by Mulhouse. The prisoner
briefly controverted some of Colonel
Jeannet's statement, but said he would
not condescend to reply to Captain Lee
monier's assertion nor to NJ. Beaure-
| paire's, but, he added, he was extreme
| ly sorry to see an officer utilize the ut
| terances of a witness whose immoral
| ity was acknowledged.
| The last witness of the day, Captain
| Maistre, read a letter from an officer
now at Nantes, affirming that While ne
was on the general staff as proba-
toner at the same time as Dreyfus, the
| latter told the officer of his visit to AL
sace-Lorraine, and recounted why he
had followed the German maneuvers
on foot and on horseback.
This was intended to show Dreyfus
was not telling the truth when he de-
MED not having been present at any
time at the maneuVerS at Alsace-Lor-
raine. Another part of Maistre's evil
dence proved to be in favor of Dreyfus.
In contradiction of the witnesses who
declared that Dreyfus frequently
stayed late in the office prying into
other officers duties, Maistre declared
that Dreyfus was disincined to work
and left often before regular time.
The prisoner, in the tone of calm
moderation which to-day distinguished
his utterances, replied to Captain Mais
tres allegations, and added with refer
ence to M. Beaurepaire's accusations,
that the latter's immortality would ere
long be demonstrated before the
court-martial. The court then ad-
journed for the day.
Maitre Labori was Immediately sur
rounded by friends, nearly every one in
court wishing to shake hands with
him. He was cheerful and smiling, and
had a few well-chosen words for every
one. subsequently he returned home
in a carriage, with an escort of two
mounted gendarmes. Policeman, gend-
armes and detectives were also dis
tributed along the road as a precau-
tion against fresh outrage.

duties for municipal benefit and licens-
es will decrease the municipal revenue

fects viii be the closing Of the public
schools and the stopping Of all public
improvements. This at all events is the
prediction Of the local press, which de-
nounces the order as n return To the
Spanish system" and which claims
that the method Of taxation as sub
stituted by Gen. Brooke opens the way
to evasion by the wealthy.
Senior Bacardi mayor of Santiago de

test against the new arrangement. az
it is feared that there will be a re-
newal of briganding against the result
of stopping work on public improve

acteristic fairness comedies that we
are surrounded by numerous evils and
it disparages the growing custom of
abusing socialists and socialism. 1t
opposes the theories of socialists be-
cause they are founded on gigantic
error, but just the same the Dispatch
fails to point out these errors. All of
the best of modern life is due to coop
Grafton, to socialism in a modified
form.
Competition is responsible for the
turmoil and strife and crimes of the
age.
If we can cooperate, socialize for
destruction why is it we cannot do
the same for construction?

Equality Industrial Association.

For the last three months number OF the
citizens of this (Patawattomie) county have
been holding meetings every two weeks for
the purpose Of discussing the subjectof indus
trial cooperation. The result is the formu-
lation of plan for the organization OF CO.
operative colony to be located in this county.
In order to obtain charter we will issue
shares of stock to the members. A share will
be one hundred dollars, with limit OF ten
shares to any one member.
The usual departments will be provided for
but we WILL at the beginning at least, give
our attention principally to the raising OF
farm products. fruits, vegetables, berries etc.
The property and money of the association
will be held in three funds:
1st-The stockholders fund, which shall
consist Of eighty per cent Of the amount put
in by the members on entering and subse-
quently thereto ten per cent OF the net pro-
ceeds and profits of the association appor-
toned among the members in proportion to
the stock held by each, and twenty per cent
of net products and profits of the association
apportioned among the members in proper
ton to the work done by each.
2dThe maintenance fund, which shall
consist of fifty per cent of the net products
of the association apportioned among the
men here in proportion to the amount of
work done.
3rd-The common fund, which shall con-
sist of twenty per cent of the amount put in
by members on entering and subsequently
thereto twenty per cent Of the net products
and profits, all the unearned increment in
value of real estate, all donations to the asso-
citation, and all other property coming into
the possession of the association and not es-
pecially assigned to some other fund. These
figures may be changed, but the principle
will be maintained.
We provide for equal opportunities, equity
in all things, and socialistic equality on the
basis of one thousand dollars, but leave
gate open at the bottom through which the
worthy poor may enter, and be gradually
raised through their own efforts to socialistic
equality at the top.
Each member will be required to hold at
least one share of stock, but provision will
he made by which persons especially desira-
BILE may be admitted by making partial pay
ment on a share of stock
The conditions here are good for begin
ming If those interested will write to me at
Tecumseh, o. T., inclosing a stamp, will
give them all the information can.

The Pittsburg Dispatch has caught
the chills induced by contemplation
of the havoc wrought by trusts and
it says: eve would rather trust
Bryan or Pingree to suppress the
trusts than Croker"
From which it is very apparent that
the Dispatch is studying trusts at
long range. Bryan, Pingree and mil
lions more like them cannot long OBJ
struct the onward march of trusts.
Trusts are the legitimate and nee
essary fruit of evolutionary law and
they will continue togrow in number,
influence and power until the people
are taught the necessity for a univer-
sal trust and then you will witness
the most magnificent spectacle of the
ages.

1t may be asked: "Why print the
Statement and the Petition in In

that if we are in the right nothing
that the discontented can say will in
jure us and if we are wrong we should
get right and we want to do so, and
we have thought that as this is free
country, and as all of us profess to
favor free speech we should give utter
ance to the complaints of our discon-
tented associates. Is not this wise?
You now have the worst these peo-
pie are willing to say of us and some
of them repudiate much that is con-
tanned in the Statement.

In our general assemblies all men,

Questions are decided viva-voce, but
anyone can call for a division of the
house which is often done. The groups
here which agree on any given ques-

not to influence one in casting his
vote; it is his judgment respecting the

we have discussions, must have a
strange conception of life and its pur-

1t may be very remarkable that we

but we know that to deny having

and the admission may inspire us to
eradicate some of the worst of them.
