the Philippines reached as many as

lands. 1t was estimated at Manila that
104. 0O0 with 63 600 deaths, but, on ac-
count of the laXity of the Filipinos i'll
was held by many officers that the
real number of deaths and cases was
twice as many as mentioned In Iloilo
there had been 1870 cases a day. The
cholera had just reached Mindanoa
when he left the islands and there
had been a few cases at Cagayan.
There was about one case a day at
Manila.
W. J. Mccain. who has been an in
spector of constabulary at Bohol has

a total population of 245 600 on the is
land 90 per cent have been swept
away by the cholera, The natives be

the deaths, and many of them built

SUBSIDY STEAL

Washington, Dec. S.-The ship sub

bers of the Republican congressional

bill has been pending since the close

have the bill favorably reported to
the house.
Several Republican members of the
committee have combined With the
Democrats to prevent action on the
bill. with the result that the commit
tee now stands nine to eight against
the measure. The Republicans who
have deserted General Grosvenor are
Stevens of Minnesota, Miner of Wis
consin and Jones of Washington. Pre-

himself with the opponents of the
bill but toward the close of the last
session he changed his mind about

TRIALS OF PREACHERS

In the Methodist conference at Para
gould the preachers whose characters
have been arrested are not as success
full of acquittal as We're the preachers
who were put on trial at Benton
and one of them, Rev. f. II. Willis,
was found guilty on four counts by the
committee appointed to Try him. He
was suspended for thirty days. His al
legged offenses We're failure to fill the
pulpit on Sunday. spending the day
socially, and telling the presiding cid
er he went to a funeral. On another
Sabbath il was alleged, he neglected
an appointment to be at a marriage
and told a member of the church that
to young lady member of the church
that he went to Memphis to get his
throat treated. Again, it was further
chrged he told the elder that he had
collected $40 subscribed to the church.
when in fact. he had borrowed SIS
from the party who had subscribed it.
He paid the $15 to the lender and
then, it was claimed, told the elder
that he had to pay $40 back. The
other charges were similar to these.
After the verdict was read Bishop
Hoss denounced it as a farce. If Rev.
Willis was guilty as charged he said
he should be expelled from the con
ference instead of being treated as
leniently as he was.
1t may be added that Bishop Hoss
remarks about the trial of Willis
and the verdict rendered against him
was nothing more nor less than a
farce may be applied in many in
stances in the trial of preachers. 1t
is too often the case that the trial
court conceals facts and acquts the
accused when in fact he ought to be
discharged from the ministry. This has
resulted in the laity regarding prac-
tically all trials of preachers as in
great measure farcica which is false
notion While church trials OF preach
ers are too frequently like the trials
of persons in the civil cOults-a kind
of whiteWashing prOcess-still not all
of them are farceS In the civil courts
the popular pull of the defendant fire.
quently has far greater weight than
the evidence. and the fear of injury
TO the church sometimes causes the
trial court to smooth over" the
charges against the accused. The
trial court of a church or conference
is usually composed of good preach
efs of fofgieing natures, and if the
accused expresses penitenee for his
wrongdoing the judges of the court
in the kindness and generosity OF their
hearts, are prone to forgive. and in
the spirit of gentle forgiveness are
likely to aeQuit as we'll as forgive. Of
course there are acqaittals when the
facts are SO strong against the accus-
ed that the acQuittal is an outrage
against the church and Christianity.
Int these are the exception.
The writer believes that ii would
be far better for the church and the
of the churches We're more rigid. and
none but men of the most exemplary
character remain in the ministry. II
would go very far toward elevatins the
church and inviting outsiders to unite
themselves with the churches.
