Bishops Gloomy View.
Head Of Indiana Episcopal Diocese Declares
Conditions Border on Anarchsm.

Conditions almost anarchistic pre-
vail in the United States, according to
Bishop John H. White, Of the Episco.
pal diocese of Northern Indiana. In
a sermon at Grace church, Chicago,
on Sunday, he declared that the
American people had forgotten their
duties in a mad rush for wealth and
fame.
at is every man for himself" he
declared. "The typical American is
needless of how he achieves his end.
Those that come in his way are tram
pied upon or pushed aside. 1t is this
lack ofrespect for the wishes and gh,s
OF others that has brought about con-
ditions in this country that border on
the anarchistic."
Irreverence, declared Bishop White.
was responsible for the existing evil
conditions. He declared that the
American education tended to create
irr everence and that the s,renuousity
of American life had the effect OF in
creAsing the irreverent spirit.
"Our institutions" said the bishop,
shave had such rapid growth and
our progress has been so wonderful
that We are filled with an admiration
of ourselves that surpasses our admira-
ton for anything else"

TO TIE VOTERS 0f COLUMBIA
COUNTY.

For three years I have been the
Chairman of the Democratic party
of this county and during that time
l spent my time and money Tor the
success of it. l have always been
loyal to the Democratic party and
its candidates. 1t is a feeling of
gratitude that l can say that my
duty to the party has always been
performed without fear or favor and
for the best of interest of the whole
party.
During the time l was Chairman
Of the Democratic party no demo-
cratic nominee of this county met
defeat at the polls. This l attribute
to the fact that l always turned a
deaf ear to the Benedict Arnolds
and party wreckers and l am sorry
to say that the party contains far
too many of them. 1t would no
doubt be interesting reading to the
voters to know of all the unfair
deals and party wreckers' sugges-
tions but for the present purpose I
deem It but necessary to call your
attention to one Of their vicious
schemes.
1t is almost beyond the belief of
any one TO know how many
schemes are devised BY these party
roosters 10 defeat men who have
been honestly nominated and some
times even try to defeat the will of
the people after the nominations
are made.
The vicious scheme to which
want to call your attention at this
time is the circulation over this
county of the evidence on the part
of W. H. Fisher in his contest case:
only the evidence on the part OF
Fisher was printed. Let ME ask
why did these party wreckers not
publish the whole evidence'
Because they cannot be tair. The
whole matter was set up against
your county chairman because he
was honest with you and stood by
the nominations you made with
the ballots at the primary election.
/ most enphatically deny that
ever made the declaration that the
ballots were printed for the purpose
OF defeating w. H. Fisher or any
other candidates. The ballots
were printed just as they were for
the former primary election under
the same rules as amended, and
they were printed as l understood
the rules and as l understood them
after consulting older members of
my profession.
The evidence circulated concern
ing the Fisher contest if you will
read it as whole will disclose to
you that it was not for the purpose
of placing w. II. Fisher on the
ticket but for the purpose ofaccom-
plishing my defeat. This was
most unfair aud you will be willing
to coucede it. I am quite sure
that this job would not have been
set up against me if I could have
been used by the Benedict Arnolds
OF the Democratic party of this
county, but ! made the declaration
IL the face of all requests, who
ever Is nominated at the primary
election will so be returned to the
convention. " 81 will be no party
to detraud any man out of his
nomination.
1t was because was loyal to
you in carrying out the wishes OF
your ballots that I was the victim
OF defeat.

For this have nothing to regret
because know that / performed
my duty and nothing but that.
Fellow voters, money was offered
to me for blank election returns be-
tween the primary election on June
9TH and the convention on June
10th. l Immediately took all the
unused election supplies, placed
them in the vault of the Blooms.
burg National Bank where they
remained until after the couven-
ton.
II anyone wants to verify this in
quire of the officers of this Bank.
1t was for the refusal OF your county
chairman to become a traitor to his
party and its nominees that he was
defeated. But let me say to YOU
that would rather be defeated
than to stand in the shoes of anv
one of the Benedict Arnolds of the
Democratic party who brought it
about.
With all the money, deals. Quay
henchmen, Benedict Arnolds of
democracy and all the lies, and
ISLANDERS. circulated about me l was
defeated by the small majority of
I54 votes.
Notwithstanding my defeat l
congratulate the democracy of Co.
luInbia county that 32I2 voters
gave ME their loyal support.
In conclusion I want to say that
l do not make this statement be-
cause l was defeated; but because l
want to make the citizens of this
county feel that honest men must
begin 10 do something in the di-
rection of displacing from the po-
litical chess board Of this county
these party roosters and all those
who become their tools.
Is it not time to act when man S
private and professional characters
are being attacked because they
cannot be used for unfair political
purposes?
have been informed by num-
Der of my friends that all kinds of
lies, ISLANDERS and vicious stories
were told about me especially on
the south side of the river. If the
people would have stopped to think
for themselves and asked these po-
htical pirates how much they were
getting for their dirty work it
might have put the blush of shame
or some of their faces.
Men who lend themselves to such
purpose as this l consider to be q
dangerous class Of citizens in any
community. l hold these men to
rob their neighbor Of his best prop
erty. his character; for he who goes
about and talks i'll of his neighbor
is man without a character, he is
man type of his own; but in
reality he is less than nothing.
Let me just add that he who
goes about talking i'll of others is
after your pocket-book. Watch
him. He who boasts about his
character and religion has neither.
l desire to thank all my friends
for their loyal support and l will
promise to them that / shall always
be found supporting my party and
its candidates.
Very respectfully,
CHRISTIAN A. SMALL.

Club Presidents Are Now Supplied
With Tickets.
The tickets for the annual midwinter break
fast of the Minnesota Federation Of Women's
clubs are now in the hands Of the club presi-
dents in Minneapolis and presumably
throughout the state, and they can be OBJ
tanned only through them. The sale will close
on Feb. 8 in order to give time for reports to
the Minneapolis committee before the lunch
con on Feb. II. This is a necessary provis-
ion in order that satisfactory arrangements
can be made for the entertainment of the
hundreds of guests expected and for whom
preparations are being made.
The luncheon will be held in the university
armory and the menu will be in charge Of q
thoroughly competent caterer, who has en-
gagged to give satisfactory service to 1000
guests, should SO many desire to attend.
The armory is an interesting building and is
not only roomy but attractive. No definite
plans for the decorations nave yet been an
nounced but these will be more elaborate than
heretofore and the musical program will be
an important contribution to the aesthetic
pleasures of the occasion. During the recep-
ton and luncheon Miss Hopes string or
chestra will play and vocal solos will be in
terspersed in the program Of toasts, sung by
Mrs. Maud Ulmer Jones, Mrs. Louis March
ard Park and Miss Alberta Fisher.
The luncheon at 1890 will be preceded by
meeting of the executive board of the
federation at 1890 to 1880, in one Of the
rooms at the armory, and by an informal re-
ception from 1880 to 1890. The executive
board is large and representative body, be-
ing made up of the general officers and the
presidents of all Of the federated clubs or
their appointees
In order that the precedence in entering
the banqueting room and choosing seats may
be given to the out-of- town guests, blue
tickets have been issued to them and they
will be admitted first; the red tickets, issued
to the St. Paul women will admit them next,
and the Minneapolis women, with their green
tickets, will take what is left after their
guests are comfortably provided with places.

customary one of ST.

AFTER THE ICE MAN
Boston Ice Company Charged Will
Neslecting to Erect Barriers.


Neg1ecting to Erect Barriers.
The Boston Ice company is in trouble
again with the people living around Lake
Calhoun. There is law requiring the
companies to erect some sort of barrier
around the openings in the ice where they
are cutting. Last year they bought lot
of old Christmas trees for this purpose.
This year they have simply placed cakes
of ice at intervals of six or eight feet
around the cuttings.
Guy l.. Baltuff now charges the company
with violating the ordinance in not plac-
ing any guard around the cuttings. These
openings, it is alleged, are a menace to
the persons using, the lake for other pur-
poses. The attorney of the ice company
entered a plea OF not guilty and asked
that the case be continued until next
March, as he affirmed that the men who
would be called upon to testify are busy
cutting ice and cannot be withdrawn from
their occupations without loss to the COM
pany. His request was refused on the
ground that the hole in the ice was dan
gerous and the complainant was entitled
to an early hearing. The trial was set
for Jan. %.
