Largest Sunday School in the
World,

Following is an extract from a
letter written by Frank Julian
Warne from Philadelphia, describ-
ing a visit he made lately to John
anamaker's famous Sunday school
i'll that city:
AT the services Sunday afternoon
there were present 81 officers. 40
teachers, 2744 scholars, and 7os
visitors. What do you think of that
tor Sunday school, This is only
an average attendance, too. At the
close Cf thy opening exercises the
teachers took charge of their respect.
i've classes. preceded Mr.. Wana-
maker by few minutes to the
church proper. Imagine nv sur
prise when found there almost a
many people as had left in Sunday
school. In the latter they were
mostly children and young people
in the former nearly all were grown
folks. This was Mr. anamakcr's
class. Could you picture to yourself
a Bible class Of over $500 people?
The record Of attendance has exceed.
eel even that figure. ought prop
crly TO call it the Bible union. as
that Is the name it goes by. Prior
10 Mr.. Wanamaker', arrival spir-
tied song service was conducted bv
one Of the associated teachers. Nj
ID. Anderson. Like the other exer-
clses J had witnessed, it was full Of
life, and vim, and earnestness. Tn
on Mr.. Wanamaker assuming the
platform the same greeting was gone
through with which ] witnessed at
the opening of the SUNDAY school.
Good afternoon, dear teachers
and scholars. and prayer. Mr..
Wanamaker took up the lesson of
the day. Last SUNDAY it was the
review lesson, and the few remarks
he made before yielding the pulpit

The November number OF The
Household, is executed In two colors,
and tells pleasing story Of Colonial
days and ways and is In itself work
of art. The stories are from such
well-known writer's as Sophie SWEET,
Will Allan Dromgoole, and j. L. Har-
bour. There are illustrated articles
by Col. t. w. Higginson, Kate San
born, and Fannie Bullock Workman
the only woman who has climbed the
Himalayas. The illustrators for the
month are Chase Emerson, Fl. w. Col
by, Louis Meynelle, and E. Jepson.
Under the new management, The
Household OF Boston, Mass, promises

No one can accuse VIM. Alden Smith
OF having vicious tongue or attempt
ing to Willy the opposing candidate.
In his speech no word passed his lips
that could in any way cause his politi-
cal opponents feeling OF enmity. He
was eloquent; he was vigorous in speech
but he was at all times respectful OF the
rights OF his adversaries. William AL
den Smith as a politician is clean, AS a
citizen is patriotic. Inf uenced by
naught but his country's welfare he
stands today one of the leading states
men of the great northwest, and there
are none who do not credit him with be-
ing honest in conviction and American
in spirit. His is clean political cam
paign, a campaign most admirable,
justly fitting to the career of great
man.

The logical deduction of Bryan's
triumph, if it should unhappily occur,
is that, with him and his party In pow
err, we shall enter upon financial and
Industrial revolution the end OF which
cannot be foreseen. But why bring 1t
about? That is the question that
every voter should ask himself in the
moment that he casts his ballot.
What does he want? Prosperity
Among the people within the pale Of
civilization today the American peo-
pie are the most prosperous OF all tn at
exist, and, not only that, but OF all the
people that ever existed through all
the centuries. And their well-being
is not an accident. 1t is the result OF
the institution and operation OF an
economic system, adapted to their ma
tural situation, which they voted for
four years ago in the maturity OF their
Judgment, and which has brought
forth the beneficent fruit then predic-
ed OF it. II they wish to go back to
the four years of economic famine that
they then experienced it is their own
lookout; but it is hardly possible that
they have been so bereft of common
sonse as TO bring upon themselves an
other four years of dire and distress
ing Democratic rule.

VIM. o. Webster is the soul OF honor.
He was brought up with those sturdy
old Puritan ideas Of honesty, justice
and fairness, and the people OF Ionia
county want just such man In the
Probate Office. The Probate Is the
legal guardian Of widows and orphans
whose fathers or husbands die possessed
of property, and 1t is essential that the
Judge be man with strict ideas oil
honesty and propriety. Such man Is
VIM. o. Webster. Vote for him.

Mr.. Wilson attempts by series OF
"open" letters to sponge his campaign
expenses in an effort to show that he
alone originated the plan OF permit
ting heirs to control their own notices.
The Judge is foxy, tits true, but the
people are going to take death bed
confessions for what they are worth.
They expect him to live up to future
agreements, but they're in no mood to
forgive him for his rank partisan use
OF probate business to advance his po-
litical fortunes. After Jan. 1, 1901, it
will be Judge Webster, and we propr-
ecy that Mr.. Webster will begin his
administration right. He will never
find it necessary to make adeath bed
confession.-Muir Tribune.

An exchange advocates the re-elec-
tion of Judge Wilson, saying "the Office
OF Judge of Probate should be removed
as far from politics as possible" No
more bitter, uncompromising, thor
ough partisan than Judge Wilson ever
occupied that position, which makes
a call for his support on a non-partisan
basis ridiculous. No republican has
any excuse for voting for such man,
particularly when they have can
didate on their own ticket for the
place that is capable and above re-
proach. Vote for Webster.

Gov. Pingree has issued the follow
ing proclamation to tho people of the
State OF Michigan:
On November 6, there will be hand
ed to all voters, by the election in
spectors, two ballots. One of these
ballots will contain the names OF party
candidates for presidential electors,
governors, state and local officers.
The other ballot Is to be used in yot-
ing upon amendments to the Constitu-
ton OF the State relative to taxation
OF corporations. These amendments
are submitted to you by the action OF
the Legislature which met In special
session on October 10.
desire to call your attention to
these constitutional amendments, and
to urge the Importance OF your voting
upon them. II adopted they will
change the constitution so that the
Legislature may provide for the assess
ment and taxation Of the property OF
corporations at its true cash value,
thus bringing about equal taxation.
Under present provisions OF the con.
stitution, 1t Is impossible to frame a
practical law for the taxation upon
cash value OF the property OF certain
corporations now paying specific taxes
upon earnings. Among these corpor-
ations are railroad, telegraph, tele-
phone and express companies. All
other corporations and persons now
pay taxes based upon the cash value OF
their property. These amendments,
II adopted by you will make 1t pos
sible to tax all alike. In other words
they are equal taxation amendments.
There can be nothing more impor-
tant than full expression oy the peo-
pie upon proposition to change the
fundamental law OF the State.
l therefore urge upon the people OF
the State the necessity OF voting at
the coming general election upon the
constitutional amendment relative to
the taxation OF corporations.

To change the policies OF the present
administration for those OF theorist
whose mere beliefs shake the conf
dence of the business world would be
the utmost folly! The stockholders of
a company which has prospered under
a certain management would not think
OF voting out that m engagement in or
der to replace it with one whose the
cries were untried and who experience
was limited. And no more will the
people of the United States ask Will
liam Mckinley to step aside In order
to give place to a candidate who has
proven nothing except that he can
make pretty speeches.

You have all heard about the man
who called out loudly stop thief" so
as to divert attention from himself
who was the real thief. So it Is with
the democrats, they have been hold
ing up their hands with holy horror,
saying, see the awful bills OF sheriff
Moon for taking care OF tramps. Now
Sheriff Moon is not in the least respon-
sible for those awful bills, but on the
contrary democratic officials in the
city OF Ionia are. Sheriff Moon, early
in his incumbency, notified his dep
uties that If they engaged in running
tramps they would forfeit their com.
missions. Neither he NOR they have
engaged in this business; but the Sher-
III has no authority to refuse to re-
ceive any prisoner brought to him
with a regular commitment, and in
such case must receive him and hold
him until his term expires. In the
three years and nine months preced-
ing Oct. 1st 2, 1909 OF the 2,42s commit
ments on charge of drunk and disor'
derly (under which tramps are run
through were by four democratic JUS
tices In the city OF Ionia and only lis
by all the other committing magis.
trates in the county. 2,3O6 arrests out
of the 2,42S were by democratic officers
and only l22 by all the republican con
stables, city and village marshals and
deputy sheriffs in the county. No sen
sible voter will in view of these facts
allow this cry against Sheriff Moon tc
have the least standing or weight with
him, on the contrary, it should cause
him to be the more interested in as
sisting in his reelection.
