Fine Tribute to Senator Dillingham;.

The Christian Advocate Of New York,
which is edited by Rev. James NJ. Buck
ley, one Of the most brilliant men of the
Methodist Episcopal church, pays a splen-
did tribute to United States Senator W. p.
Dillingham; in connection with the latters
address at the Twentieth Century move
ment meeting at Hanson Place church in
principal speaker was Bishop Galloway.
The Advocate says:
Senator Dillingham;, of Vermont, gave
an address of remarkable quality and
value lie went back to the days OF tho
colonists and in a mastery way showed
people from that time until now, contrast
ing the course pursued by England, whero
only the upper classes had the privilege
Of the schools, with the plan followed 10y
the United States where the schools wero
thrown open to all. He claimed that tho
absorb and assimilate the vast multtudcs
who had come to the United States during
the past century, and had it not been for
this system the nation would have gone
down under the fearful weight Of an ig-
norant foreign population throngiug its
cities. He surprised many in the audience
by saying that the grant of public lands
by the government for the public schools
covered a wider area than all of Great
Britain and Ireland, and that within these
schools about It 100000 children and young
people were being educated. Then in a
vivid and most suggestive survey of the
nations progress he presented number Of
the most serious and pressing problems
of the immediate present, outlining, at
the same time, even greater problems
which of necessity must present themsel-
YES at the bar of public consideration.
These, Senator Dillingham; contended,
could only be met by men OF trained
schools and universities the strongest
equipment possible. There was not a tnga
of pessimism in any part of the address.
on the contrary, it was bright, hopeful,
encouraging. Nevertheless, the senator
presented thoughtfully the perils incident
upon the accumulation of vast wealth in
the hands of a limited number, the crowd
ing Of people from the towns and rural
districts into the great cities the eager.

and closed his impressive address by say
ing that the MayhoWer had not merely
sailed across the ocean, but was sailing
across the centuries. and that the voyage
would not cease until her precious freight
of liberty, conscience, freedom to worship
God. the brotherhood of man, the right Of
each child to the best teaching the state
could afford, and all the other blessings
consequent upon pure, free citizenship had
become a universal possession
From every point of view this was a
magnificent address, worthy both of the

A Supreme Test for Cattle Commission

The Vermont cattle commissioners have
encountered an obstacle which may prove
to be a supreme test fci the efficacy Of
their usefulness end efficiency. Thoy
have learned that the subiccting of n cow
to the tuberculin test even when there is
a response may render the animal immune
so far as tuborculin is concerned for n
certain period and that acting on this
knowledge n large number of cattle, esti-
mated in the vicinity of 1000, located in
Willstcn and vicinity have been thus
treated. In some instances they were so
close upon the heals OF the operator that
the animals sti showed a high degree Of
Temperatures, SC much so that the cattle
might have been condemned.
If the commissioners find no legal means
OF putting a stop to this practice, It will
mean the practical end of their operations
unless they can keep the date of their visit
to any given locality a secret, for other
wise cattle can be treated in advances so
that definite results cannot be obtained by
the Official test. Indeed it can be seen
that the commissioners might thus no
compelled 20 give a clean lill of health to
animals tullly diseased. which might
be sold as cattle tested under the author
ity CT the state of Vermont
The conn ssicners believe they have the
rover to pr wide a solution of this prob
lon through hearings at which those in
terested can be compelled to testify upon
oath whethc. or not their herds have been
previously treated. But the commissioners
are plainly confronted by something of a
dilemma with reference to the prosecution
of their work, and the Outcome will be
awaited with pronounced interest through
out the State.
