THE CONF MONER,

The Commoner has attained within
six months from date ofthe first issue a
circulation of 100, 900 copies, a record
probably never equaled in history of
American periodical literature. The un-
paralleled growth of this paper demon
strateS that there is room in the news
paper field for a national paper devoted
to the discussion of political, economic
and social problems. To the columns
of The Commoner, Mr.. Bryan contrib
uteS his best efforts: and his review of
political events as they arise from time
to time can not fail to interest those
who study public questions.
The CommOner's regular subscription
price is Sl.00 per year. We have ar
ranged with Mr.. Bryan whereby we
can furnish his paper and the weekly
Democrat together for one year for
$50. The regular subscription price of
the two papers when subscribed for
separately is 800.

Sunday was red letter day in the his
tory OF the Christian denomination in
this city. The frution Of the hopes OF
those faithful members whose personal
sacrifices have made it possible to build
the splendid temple Of worship, came in
the dedicatory services held during the
entire day, to dedicate the church to the
holy purposes for which it was erected.
The entire program as published in
this paper Saturday was carried out
faithfully and at all the services there
was a splendid attendance.
The special music throughout the day
added much to the services. together
with the intense feeling Of satisfaction
which seemed to be in the atmosphere
over the propitious celebration.
The church looked beautiful yester-
day morning, filled as it was with the
church membership and with friends
and members OF the other congregations
gathered together under one roof to give
praise to the Lord for dealing so bounti,
fully with the Christian congregation Of
this city. Every available seat was
taken in the main audie1ce room aud the
gallaries were also crowded with people.
DR.. Barton o. Aylesworth preached
the dedicatory sermon in the morning.
The text selected by the very reverened
gentleman was the Victory OF Faith"
To those who have heard DR.. Ayles-
worth speak before it was no surprise
that he should deliver beautiful eer-
mon rich in thought, imagery and

noble thought and feeling. He has =

Death Mrs. c. B. Hill.

Mrs. Lizzie Hill, wife OF Charles B.
Hill. residing on a ranch near Ka nah
creek, died at her home at $3.50 yesterday
morning from an attack OF rheumatism
OF the heart. The deceased had been
suffering from rheumatism in her limbs
ever since three weeks ago when she Wis
tied this city as the guest Of Mrs. George
Peugh.
Last Saturday the disease went to her
heart and for several hours she was in q
very dangerous condition. but the phyei-
cians were able to give her medicine
which brought relief and she was
thought by all to be greatly improved,
as she suffered no pain at all. But Sun
day morning about o'clock a second at
tack affected the heart and for nearly
halt an hour Mrs. Hill suffered the great
est agony until relieved by death.
Lizzie Beal, Gilman was born in Lo-
gan county. Kentucky. September 70
1856, and was married to Charles B. Hill
Of Saline county, Mo-. November 1O,
1875. at Cleburne, Tex. 10 them we're

months past has been the Dight opera

city and who has a large number Of
friends here, and Zella and Clabie. both
young ladies, residing at the family home
on Hannah creek.
The family came to this valley about
nine years ago and for one year resided
in this city, Afterwards removing to the
ranch on kannah creek where they have
| since resided.
The deceased was very estimable
woman and had many friends who all re
gret her death. The funeral was held

Gets an Internal Machine.

w. S. Phillips resolved today through
surface was very harmless looking
piece indeed, but which might have
turned out quite disastrously for those
in the vicinity of the package when 1t
WAS opened, for, in the judgment OF
those who saw the package opened, it
contained an internal machine the pur-
pose OF which was evidently intended to
inlsh the earthly career OF Mr.. Phillips.
Whatever was in the boz, to make it .
dangerous object. was not seen by the
Sentinel reporter, but the word Of those
who were present at the time is authori-
ty for the statement that it WAS an in.
fernal machine.
The contents OF the box were taken
away by Mr.. Phillips for examination,
but the box was left at the Buena Vista
hotel where it was shown to the report
or. The box was Of heavy pasteboard, with
tho ends open. Inside the pasteboard
the other closed. The open end had
strips OF tin bent down toward the con-
ter OF the box. 80 that anyone attempt
ing to push the tin box out OF the paste
board one would satch the contents
against the corner OF the tin which was
bent inwards and cause an explosion, il
the contents were explosive.
When Mr.. Phillips had unwrapped the
package go that the open end was visible
he suspicioned that all was not we'll, as
whatever the box contained was care
fully wrapped in several thickneeses OF
cotton and securely protected from any
jar. So, instead Of opening it by push
ing the tin box out. he cut the paste
board box of ard carefully unbsnt the
tin ends 80 that the little vial which was
wrapped in cotton could be taken out
without any danger.
Perhaps it would not be out OF place
to mention that while Mr.. PHILIPPE was
unwrapping tho package, all the guests
Of the hotel went out to enjoy little

given the most wrapt attention by his
splendid audience and it's conclusion
came only too quickly to all. In such
sermons there is an abundance to digest
for days and what WAS carried away by
his audience in memory, will keep DR..
Aylesworth and the "Victory of Faith"
in their thoughts for long time to
come.
Following the sermon Rev. Leonard
G. Thompson, to whose faithful and un-
firing efforts much OF the work for the
new church, is responsible, took the
floor and gave short history Of the
building OF the church. its cost and what
was still remaining as an obligation.
He said that he was going to make an
eff rt to raise this balance that day.
The amount due on the church was 81,
500. He had system to present to the
congregation whereby it could be raised.
With the efforts OF the official board and
DR.. Ayleewoath work to raise that
amount was begun and before the doxo-
logy was spoken nearly half the sum had
been raised,
The afternoon services in which the
ministers OF the city participated was
equally as we'll attended, also the one in
the evening. The services throughout
the remainder Of the day being most in
teresting.
1t may be we'll said that never has a
church in this city been dedicated to the
service of the Lord under more favorable
circumstances than tho one yesterday
and it is to be hoped that it will fulfill
as a house OF worship all the good that
wac hoped for it yesterday in the minds
and hearts, not only Of the congregation,
but OF the people Of the city at large.
Rev. Thompson said today thas the
sum raised was sl13l. which covers that
portion Of the loan which fall due this
year, therefore the church considers the
subscription splendid response to their
effort yesterday.

Money to Loan!

CERTAINTY OF CoNTRACT.-The
loan plan here offered by The Fi>
deity is that Of paying off a loan
by easy monthly payments. The
contract is definite and certain By
its terms it cannot run BEYOND the
time fixed, but stock participates in
earning and may mature sooner. IT
is NOT loan upon the building
loan plan as usually presented by
associations. q 1t differs from such
a plan, in that
a No fines are charged the borrower.
b The maximum number of payments re-
quired to pay off is stipulated In the note.
The sum required to pay of and cancel a
loan, or any part of it, is stipulated. in the
note for each period.
d Certainty and monthly payment plan
is an advantage to the borrower. az The
debt can be paid off before maturity with
out penalty. (2) The borrower by easy pay
ments gets out of debt. Straight loans for
term of years are too often renewed.
Three terms or payment are offered. 1t
takes a small monthly payment longer to
cancel a debt than it does a larger one.

The Minneapolis journal., 1902-08-22

It is not very long ago that Thomas
Shevlin, republican national committee
man for Minnesota, and an important
lumber magnate, was remarking in his
impetuous way, that he was republican
because of the 81 tariff on lumber. < Mr..
Shevlin did not literally mean this; but
he did mean that part Of his warm at
tachment to the republican party was due
to a feeling that it's policy Of protection
meant money in his own private pocket.
Now Mr.. Shevlin emphatically says that
he is in favor Of removing the entire
tariff on lumber. It may be said that Mr..
shevlin no longer fears Canadian lumber
and is entitled, therefore, to little.2credit
tor his change Of mind. There are many
other industries than the lumber busi-
ness that no longer require protection,
but how many of them have investors in
them doing what Mr.. shevlin is doing?
He. certainly deserves credit for favoring
the removal of a useless tariff. That is
the true modern republican view. OF the
tariff question.
