REV. MYERS
Took Farewell OF His
Congregation.
Evening Services Attended by the
Stationary Enqineers.

Evening Services Attended by the
Stationary Engineers.
Rev. n. J. Myers concluded his
work as pastor of st. Paul's Luther
an church Sunday by preaching two
sermons to his congregation-one in
the morning the other in the even
ing. The topic for the morning SER
mon was the "Man of Gallilee.'
The evening services were attend
ed by thirty members of the local
Brotherhood of Stationary Engi-
neers and their families. At these
services the pastor talked on "The
Power That Moves the World" He
discussed mechanical power; gener-
al physical power; moral power;
educational power; and spiritual
power, tracing all power to God, the
Chief Engineer of the universe; the
original source of all power.
A feature of the evening services
was the exhibition of a miniature
design representing a battery of boil
ers, engines and all the belongings
of a well-equipped engine room. 1t
was constructed by Mr.. Henry F.
Burgner of Bell ST., one of the off,
GERS of the Akron Stationary Engi-
neers' lodge, and was very ingen-
ious. h's
During Rev. Myerys two years.
service as pastor of the church the
congregation was largely increased,
Che Sunday school enrolment being
increased to 800. More than $500
were paid in principal and interest
on the church debt. Attendance at
yesterdays services was the largest
ever assembled ih the church.
Rev. Myers will leave at 8 Thurs
day morning over the Lake Shore
for South Bend, Ind. He will rest
from preaching entirely for the win
ter and probably for the wear. his
reason for leaving the charge being
on account of ill health, his physi-
clan having declared protracted
rest to be imperative. If Rev. Myers
regains his health sufficiently he
will remove to Chicago in the spring
to lecture on biblical art, and if able
to re-enter the ministry will engage
in mission work in Chicago.

MILLER HAD MANY DUPHS.
Caught-victims In Pennsylvania
and Ohio.

NEW YORK, Nov. William F.
Miller and his secretary and chief
boomer, Cecil Leslie, of the Franklin
syndicate, the 10 per cent week con.
ocrn of Brooklyn, had not yet been ar.
rested.
The extensive operations Of the
Franklin syndicate and exhaustless cre-
duljty of the American people,are shown
by the number of dividend GRATIS which
are held by the different city banks.
These drafts were sen. through the
mails by Miller to subscribers living at
distant points and they deposited them
in their local banks for collection. The
local banks in turn sent them to the
New York banks. which act as their
agents here.
These drafts arrived on Saturday.
Many more are expected this week.
AS the syndicate has assigned, the
drafts will be returned to their dupes.
The National City bank alone has
about 200 OF the drafts sent here by
banks in Allegheny City, Portland,
Me-. Elsie, Ind, Armenia, N. Y, Grand
Lodge. Mich, Fitchburg, Mass, Wheel
ing, Urbana, o., Elizabeth, n. j., and
two score of other towns.
The Nassau National bank and the
Mechanics bank also have Miller drafts
sent them from out of town.
The police say they have spread a
dragnet for Miller which they say will
bring the missing head of the Franklin
syndicate to prison before long.

A LITTLE CITY BOY

Was making his first visit in the
country at his grandfather's. He
was very much interested in the Jer-
Eey cows, and the first milking at
which he attended was watched
with astonishment. The continuous
stream of milk aroused his curiosity
until he suddenly burst forth with:
ssSay, grandpa, where do you turn it
on?" The joke was SO good that
grandpa's Xmas supply of the
Model Bakery's Homemade Candy
was cheerfully handed over to the
young hopeful.
Ask your grocer and candy stores
for the Model Bakery's homemade

SOME FACTS AND SOUND
SENSE.

The Constitutional Convention bill
was introduced in the Senate, and in
accordance with the rules, 1t must have
been enrolled In that body. The Elko
Independent therefore was mistaken in
its supposition that the Assembly en-
rolling committee had anything to do
with making the mistake that caused
the veto of that measure, says the
Reno Journal. But it makes no differ
ence W here the legislative part of the
dirty work was performed. The South
ern Pacific lookout knew it would not
go into effect, or he would never have
allowed 1t to pass both houses by two
thirds majorities, nor in either branch
by bare majority, If that had been all
that was required. 1t was as well known
as that the sun rises and sets, that he
owned, body and soul, majority of
the members Of both houses, aud that
nothing could pass either branch that
he disfavored. He knew that the con-
stitutional convention was desired by at
least four-ffths of the people OF the
State and that the corporation he rep
resents was the principal opposer Of the
measure. Therefore, In the kindness
OF his heart, he permitted the bill to
pass 10 order that the poor devils he
controlled might have the credit of
doing one merit0rious act. Had he not
known that II would never develop into
an act, it would never have received
even bare majority in either house.
The work was bunglingly performed,
however, II the intent was to hold the
executive blameless for the outrage, al
though the corporations purpose was
effected all the same. Any person of
ordinary sense who has ever been with
in twenty miles of legislative body
cannot fail to discern how the whole
Job was effected.
But when 1t comes down to the bot
tom facts, however, it is the people Of
the State who are to blame. 1t was
their votes that elected the present
State officers and members OF the Leg
islature, and they must suffer the con-
sequences. The man who controls the
politics of the State Is as good as the
politics he controls. 1t is the politics
that need reforming and not the pOliti-
cal boss. Nevada's boss cannot be
hlstned for doing his duty to his en-
ployers, when the people themselves
furnish him such material as he can
uduul6 30 hufdubdBcouoiy ioi sho iuVoi
ests of the corporation from which he
receiyes his pay. When the people of
Nevada become mindful OF their own
interests and cast their votes accord
inaly, the evil viii cease. and not until
then. A single legislature with two
I birds ma ority in each house. which
will be equi~ed to crush the executive
yetoing power, will settle the matter
for the ensuing two years and probably
for all time. A single Legislature not
under the control Of our corporation
,s.ssters, and of sufficient strength to
check executive interference, and the
Isagn Of despotism In Nevada will end,
u. Yer to be renewed II the people con-
tii4ae their good work ON succeeding
SECTION days Let US begin the good
work OF emancipation by electing such
. legislature in 1909,
