DENOMINATTONAL DIRECTION.
During the week, a story to the ef.
feet that the Alumni Association
would discuss the advisabilty Of TAX
ing the direction of the college out Of
the hands of the Universalist Con
vention, was started and it created
considerable talk.
The story probably started from a
mistaken impression of the request
presented by the Alumni at the meeting
Of the Unlversalist Convention, held
here a few weeks ago, asking that the
Alumni Association be permitted to
elect six trustees for the college.
Heretofore, they have recommended
names to the convention but have
never had authority to elect trustees
direct. Their request Is now under ad
visement of the committee appointed
by the convention.

THE FOURTH OF JULY.


No holiday in the year is hailed
with greater JOY by the younger mem
bers OF the community particularly by
the boys, than that which is celebra-
ted this week, nor another which is
awaited with so much dread by their
elders. The one occasion when John
and Thomas might have remained in
bed as late as they pleased without
fear OF being called is also the one
when, in ali probability they got up
OF their own accord long before day
light soliliQuizes the Youths Compan-
len. The circumstances seem to in
dictate lack CT that Community in
rerest" which is supposed to charact-
eiise modern business methods; and
the reader will take this side Of the
controversy or the other, according as
he is still young enough to revel in
noise or old enough to prefer quiet
Mutual consideration and compromise
will help the matter. The man whose
morning nap is cut short must not
| forget when he himself used to get up
at two O'Clock in the morning to ring
"a forbidden churcll-bell and fire the
old musket under neighbours window.
When he recalls those days, and at
the same time reflects upon his pres
ent moral worth and responsibility to
which he has attained, he will icel
better about the futuro of that Jones
boy.
The Jones boy on his part, needs to
study history, particularly the Decla-
ration of Independence. He will find
that it was not signed on the second
Of July, nor on the third, but on the
fourth, and then not before daylight.
He will also discover that the signers
had a mind to secure liberty for the
people, not license. Ii they had fore
seen Young Americas method OF
celebrating their bold Declaration,
they would have held that even adu Its
have some rights which boys and girls
are bound to respect. The liberty
they demanded did not include the
seizure OF citizens front gate for a
bonfire, or the firing of cannon in
front OF his house at midnight. Yet
the signers have been regard ed as
broad minded mer, and not altogether
spiritless.
With these things in mind, let us
make the day all that the anniversary
of the greatest event in our history
demands.

Last Monday the war taxes were
reduced. as officially estimated, to the
extent of $45,0O0,O 900 a year. The
surplus revenue for the government
fiscal year, which closed June 80, is
estimated at $75,000,000. Should
revenue and expenditures continue on
the same scale, and present prosper
GUS conditions be maintained, there
should be for the coming fiscal year,
notwithstanding the reduced taxation
q surplus of $3O,000,O0O. There is a
good prospect that the surplus for
next year will be larger than the
amount named. Favorable trade con
ditions are still expanding, and foreign
traffic is growing. The outlook for
crops is excellent, and prices are
we'll sustained. AS far as fore
cast can be made from the existing
situation the coming business year
will at least be equal to that which
ends within few days; and the treas
ury is so strongly fortified that it can
not meet with serious backset dur
pg the next twelve months.

misfortunes or presume to lecture you
when cast down. Your Joy gives him
pleasure, and your sorrow gives him
pain. In your ascent of life he cheers
you, and when the frightening shad-
ows o'ertake you he sticketh closer
than brother, and finally, when you
pass through the valley of the shadow
of death and your enfranchised spirit
scars away into realms Of life and
light eternal, he moistens your grave
with his tears and keeps it green in
memory OF the happy recollections OF
tile past and the glorious anticipation
of a reunion "in the sweet bye-and-

There will be 694,090,000 bushels OF
wheat in the crop 1901, according to
the figures of the statistician of the
New York produce exchange, based
upon the acreage and condition as set
forth by the department OF agricul-
ture. This, OF course, will break all
the records, if it comes. The largest
wheat crop ever harvested thus far,
was that of 1898, which was 75,000,-
900 bushels, and none has come near
that previously since 1891, when the
yield was 6l3,0O0,00O bus heels. The
6S4.000,000 crop for 1901 would please
the country exceedingly. Europe's
yield is apparently going to be con-
siderably short of the earlier expec-
tations, and there will be a market on
the other side of the Atlantic for all
the wheat which the United States
will have to spare. The larger the
crop here the better it will be for the
country.
