will pass upon the rights of those
entitled to participate in the pre-

meet for that purpose at the opera
house in Wahpeton, N. D., June 26,

The credentials of all delegates
and all notices of contest must be

It is hereby suggested that town.

be designated by the Township

that each caucus elect Precinct
Committee of three and report the
same to the convention along with
the credentials of the delegates.

Committees is called to the new

Congress has adjourned, and
the republicans are over-joyed.
Latterly, scarcely a day had
passed without some new
scandal being brought out on
the floor of the Capitol, and
the republican congressman

their tired nerves.

Thanks to Mr.. Pettiprew. tn

Thanks to Mr.. Pettigrew, the
republican antitrust bill has
proved itself the worst sort of
farce. 1t was introduced at
the last moment of the session,
so that it might be held as a
club to compel subscriptions
during the campaign, as we'll
as to convince the people the
republicans were regular octo-
pus hunters themselves. But
Pettigrew's endeavor to have
it taken up in the senate at
once, and the democratic offer
to remain in session until it
could be passed, forced the re-
publicans to vote it down.
The Wahpeton times., 1900-06-14

1t is just as we'll to point out
that Mr.. Bryan did not declare
III favor of a constitutional
amendment in regard to trusts.
On the contrary, he recon-
mended action which he be-
lieves is constitutional and
added that if the supreme
court should declare that it
was not so, then he would ad-
vocate an amendment to make
it so. This is a very different
proposition.

The republicans refuse to
repeal the stamp taxes on the
ground that they must retain
money enough in the treasury
to meet extraordinary expenses
like that for the Nicaragua
canal, for public buildings, and
rivers and harbors, and the

ized none of these things. But
the money will come in handy
all the same. 1t can and will
be loaned out to the banks
possibly in return for cam.

Free to Inventors.

The experience of C. A. Snow &
Co., in obtaining more than 10000
patents for inventors has enabled
them to hopefully answer many
questions relating to the protec.

same, and how to procure them;
trade maks, designs, caveats, in
fringements decisions in leading
patent cases, etc etc.
This pamphlet will be sent free

We notice that the oleomar-
gine bill has been left hanging
in the air, together with most
of the other measures to which
the republicans pledged them
selves so freely. Still, it is
considered better to violate
pledges rather than to remain
in session any longer under
present conditions.

Humility and the Graces.

| cannot plead too earnestly with my
reader, if possibly his attention has
never yet been specially directed to
the want there is of humility within
him or around him, to pause and ask
whether he sees much of the spirit Of
meek and lowly Lamb of God in those
who are called by his name. Let him
consider how all want of love. all in
difference to the needs, the feelings,
the weakness of Others all sharp and
hasty judgments and utterances, so
often excused under the plea of being
outright and honest; all manifesto
tons of temper and loneliness and ir-
ritation; all feelings of bitterness and
estrangement-hav their root in moth
ing but pride, that ever seeks itself,
and his eyes will be opened to see how
a dark pride creeps in almost every
where, the assemblies of the saints not
excepted? Let him begin to ask what
would be the effect if in himself and
around him, if toward fellow saints
and the world, believers were really
pei SQAdCN w tiAN huhillIy
OF Jesus; and let him say If the cry
of our whole heart, night and day,
ought not to be, Oh for the humility
of Jesus in myself and all around me!
Let him honestly fix his heart on his
own lack of the humility which has
been revealed in the likeness Of
Christs life, and in the whole charac-
ter of his redemption, and he will be-
gin to feel as if he had never yet really
known what Christ and His salvation
is Believer! study the humility of
Jesus. This is the secret, the hidden
root of thy redemption. Sink down
into it deeper day by day Believe
with thy whole heart that this Christ
whom God has given thee. even as His
divine humility wrought the work
within thee, will enter in to dwell and
work within thee, too and make thee
what the Father would have thee be

Definitions OF Sin.

Many definitions of sin have been
given, but nothing simpler or more
impressive can be found than that in
isaiah: "All we. like sheep, have gone
astray; we have turned every one to
his own way" We sin when we go our
own way" Sin is self-will; true re-
ligion is doing Gods will Self-wlll
may be defiant, boastful, loud-tongued;
or it may be quiet. subtle, deceitful
1t may even assume the garb of devot-
edness to Gods honor, as when Saul
prosecuted the church. and thought he
was doing God service 1t did not
occur to him to ask whether he was
doing Gods will. yet only by doing the
will can we do the service. Doing a
service is the way of pride and self
sufficiency; doing the will is the way
of humility and self-surrender Self
pleasing in religion, turning to our
own way, is the very essence of sin;
il Is in the sight of God precisely the
same as self-pleasing in any other
thing-it is enthroning self. and ig-
noring God. Happy is the man who
can say: II thought on my ways, and
turned my feet unto thy testimonies
The Christian.

The recent appointment Of a stenog-
rapher at $4,000 a year, as authorized
by the house committee on accounts,
recalls the fact that there are now
three stenographers employed by the
lower branch of congress who draw as
much money for salary as members Of
the house or senate. In what other
country does a member of the highest
legislative body and short hand
writer draw the same pay? 1t Is ad-
mitted that while congress is in session
these stenographers, at 500 week
have a great deal of work to do, but for
a portion Of each year they have moth
Ing to do. The committee report au-
thorizing the third high-priced stenog-
rapher says: During the present ses-
sion Of congress the demand upon the
two stenographers has been greater
than usual. On many days six COM
mittees required their services. 1t is
becoming more and more the custom to
report the proceedings of committees,
as it has been found that the testimony
then taken has proved of great value in
subsequent proceedings, especially
upon questions involving appropria-
tions OF money"

Religious bodies, great and small,
seem to be experiencing a baptism Of
sacred enterprise. They are mobilz-
Ing their forces, as if making ready to
enter the coming century under that
invisible Leadership which rides forth
"conquering and to conquer" There IS
a notable decline of controversy, a
growing passion for unity, and an ur-
gent demand for the application Of
truth to life, or for bringing all hui
man affair into harmony with the
higher spirit. The sense of steward
ship over the Lords goods is placing
large and willing offerings at the dis
posal Of church extension boards or
in the treasures of educational and
philanthropc institutions. Best of all,
perhaps. is the spread Of good will and
neighborly helpfulness among all
classes.
