The remainder of the effusion is on
the same lines, but we believe the above
is sufficient to prove that the NEWS
has not "misstated.
We would suggest to the editor OF
the Journal that It might be a good
idea for him 10 read his own prodnc-
tions occasionally, and he may, possibly
be able to realize how silly and ill-ad
vised they really are.

The Journal man, after reading the
comments OF the NEWS, evidently re-
allied the Righteousness Of his position,
and hoping that his exact language
m light be forgotten. he attempts now
to convey the idea that this paper had

at the time to clip out the editorial"

THE WHITE PINE NEWS misstates
when 1t says that Democratic and Sill
yer party papers have accused Pres
ident Roosevelt OF plagiarism in intro
ducing some OF Congressman Newlands'
Y iews upon irrigation and other mat
ters In his message. Tho Journal call
ed attention to the fact that their
views were similar upon subjects In
which the people OF Nevada were in
terested, with the remark that such
similarity OF opinion would naturally
inure to the benefit OF the State, and
the remarks OF the other Democratic
and Silver party papers were on the
same lines. Doubtless the Republican
organs would be better pleased II the

resentative we're at loggerheads upon

SOMEBODY IS A LIAR.

The zeal OF the editor OF the Reno
Journal In grinding out slush at IS. 90
per column has had the Inevitable re.
suit, and he is now engaged in the &C.
robatie task of attempting to get his
foot extricated from the cavity between
his jaws. The task OF manufacturing
campaign arguments In favor of Mr..
Newlands without any material on
which to work has compelled the Jour
nalistic luminary to fall back upon his
imagination, and 1t is not surprising
that be frequently loses sight OF Truth
In crediting his patron with qualities
OF craftsmanship that at once make
him the leader OF both Houses of Con-
gress, and from whom even the Pres
ident confidently borrows his ideas.

 Rev and Mrs Otis w. Barker and their son, Lloyd, left on Monday morning for MT Barker's fathers farm in Stone Church, Genesee Co.,, N. Y. Here they expect to be until about the middle of the month, and the place being within easy distance of Buffalo, they will have chance to spend sev- eral days at the Pan-A merican Exposi- tiOn. This farm has been in the fam fly for many years, Rev MT Barker's father having gone there with his father and brothers when he was a boy of nine. This was in the early days before there was any railroad across New York state, the journey from Albany to Lockport on canal packet consuming one week, and that being regarded as very fast time.

THE CHURCH COLUMN.
(By REV. C. e. scUDDER)

The topic for next Sabbath will be,
"Turning Men to God" and in the
evening, "Turning Self to God" or
"The Crisis of Conversion"
Next Sabbath evening revival SER
vices will begin. We call upon all
Christians to pray for their success.
Let sacrifice be made for the sake of
conscience, and for the sake of those
who need to be redeemed. If we do
our part God will most surely keep
His part of the covenant, and work
ing together with Him we shall ac-
complish His will in the redemp
tion of men.
The musical held at the church last
Monday night was fairly well attend
ed. The audience showed apprecia-
ton and many kind things have
been said, especially about the two
quartet selections. We express our
thanks to all who contributed to the
pleasure of the evening. The offer
ing was nine dollars.
We are glad to see the Rev. Mr.
Smead in town again. We have en-
joyed our association with him very
much and feel sure that he will
minister to the good fraternal feeling
that exists between the churches of
Milford. We hope that his stay may
be fruitful in developing true spirit
ual life in the entire community. 1t
has been our pleasure to inform him
that he is to preach the Thanksgiv-
ing sermon this year.
A number of good books have
been sent out by our Book Concern
for approval. If they are what we
desire we may keep them, if not
they may be returned. If there are
any of our people who desire some
good books, well bound, as Christ
mas gifts they may call at the par.
sonage and select. The prices are
remarkably low. Very good books
may be procured for from twenty to
thirty cents.
Election is over again. Some are
elected to office and some to stay at
home. All have some kind of an
election. The Book says: "Make
your calling and election sure"
Have you? Come out to the meetings
next week and settle the matter.

Theologians and logioians may
write books on the evidences Of
Christianity and prove that it Is a
vital and living force but no strong
er argument can be made in its
favor than to cite the fact that it
survives ia spite Of some Of it's So
called ministers. Recently in Bos-
ton James jackson, q member Of
the Second Reformed Presbyterian
church, in becoming naturalized
took the usual oath to support the
constitution of the United Stntes.
For this he has been suspended
from membership and the pastor
Rev. j. M. Posteh, sayss 1--WE look
upon the constitution Of the United
States as an immoral document and
as an insult to the ALMIGHTY, in that
it makes no mention whatever of
God, and claims for the people that
sovereign power which belongs to
God alone. We refuse TO accept the
constitution thus defective, and can.
not swear allegiance to it. do not
think there is anything in the sug-
gestion that has beer made that MIR.
jackson can go to law and compel
MS to admit him to membership in
our church. "
1t would be more fitting to sus-
pend that minister, or at least re-
form a little sense in him before he
is permitted to talk from pulpit.
Such sentiments as lie expresses
border closely on anarchy and
should be suppressed.

ELEc1lnn RESULTS.

The fight in this state seems to
have centered in Philadelphia. GEN
elally, outside of that city, little in
terest was manifested in the state
ticket, and the vote was light ex-
cept in a few counties where there
were sharp contests over local Of
fees. Compared with the vote in
1899, which was an of year also,
there is little difference in this coun-
ty, the majority for treasurer then
being 433 and this year 423, only 10
different. A rather remarkable
fact is that the total vote in 1899 in
the county for treasurer was 116O
and this year it was 1161 The TO-
tai republican vote in 1899 was 345
and the prohibition "a. This year
the total republican vote is 359 and
the prohibition 20, which might
indicate that the fourteen "prohibs"
went over to the republicans and
made the vote this year just IA
more. The total democratic vote in
1899 was us and this year 7s2,
showing that few democrats either
die, come of age or change their
minds. there being an increase Of
only four in the two years. Pike
manages to be pretty rook-ribbed
and steadfast all around.

DEED TO IT'S PEOPLE.

Under the above caption our
neighbor, THe Dispatch, this week
makes some undeserved reflections
and misleading statements. Under
the law requiring non-residents, not
owners of lands, to take out licenses
to hunt the game commission
technically held that members of
park associations holding stock in
such corporations were not within
the letter of the law landowners
and would be required TO take out
licenses. The Blooming Grove Park
association, owning property per
laps with its improvements to the
value of a million dollars in this
county and paying annually taxes
on its wild lands alone to the
amount of about $500 and composed
of many wealthy nonresident mem
bers, comes under this decision. It
could have decided some of its own
lands to its members, but Mr.. Bull,
having, as executor, a piece of land,
they preferred, to avoid complica-
tions, to make distinct purchase,
which brings them within Che pur-
view of the law, and in making the
deed Mr.. Bull acted as other we'll
meaning citizens of the county who
have made similar deeds for similar
purposes. The article referred to
is distinct reflection on all grant
ors of such deeds and if one is a
"buncoer" they all are. The arti-
Gle says the county is thus "bun-
coed out of $3.50 each year" in this
transaction. This statement must
be made either through ignorance
or malice for the law distinctly says
that one-half the license fees goes to
the state treasurer. These deeds
need no defence. They are legiti-
mate transactions under the law
and parties to them should not be
maligned or held up to ridicule as
"buncoersp and despoilers of the
county. If the law is defective it
can be amended or repealed, but
while it stands parties have a per-
feet right TO buy lands however
small in quantity in order to avoid
the license if they so choose.

Stop ,Ghe
Blight

1t is a sad thing to see fine
fruit trees spoiled by the blight.
You can always tell them from
the rest. They never do well
afterwards but stay small and
sickly.
1t is worse to see a blight
strike children. Good health
is the natural right of children.
But some of them don't get
their rights. While the rest
grow big and strong one stays
small and weak.
SCOTS Emulsion can stop
that blight. There is no
reason why such a child should
stay small. Scott's Emulsion
is a medicine with lots Of

strength that makes things

makes them sleep, makes them
