THE DEMOCRATIC OPPORTUNITY.

The one thought which more
than any other The Post has striven
to impress on the Democratic mind
shows up conspicuouslyin the tariff
reform policy adopted by the House
of Representatives under the judi
cious and hopeful leadership of
John Sharp Williams, of Mississip-
pi. The Post has printed Mr..
Williams concise statement of that
policy, but it will bear repeating.
and it will repay careful consider
alton as we'll by the dominant party
as by the opposition. I'VE shall
fight says Mr.. Williams, for a
revision of the tariff, for reduc-
tons as far as possible, consistent
with economical and effective gov
ernmental administration, and con-
sistent also with the desire not to
destructively revolutiOnize existing
conditions nor TO destroy honest,
legitimate, and non-monopolistic
enterprises"
Now If the organs will take the
hint and stop their shouting for
free trade or its equivalent, "a
tariff for revenue only" if they
will forget that they ever did any
shouting of that kind; if they will
stop fighting against protection
per se-the established policy of
this country-and wage their tariff
tight only against the abuses of
protection; and if the Democratic
politicians. big and little, will fall
in with the organs on that line
right then and there the Democrat
&c party will begin recovery of lost
ground. That is not only the dem
ocratic opportunity, but the Dem
ocratic duty. That is the way to
win converts from the Republican
organization, and that is the only
plan by which the minority can
Gust the majority and return to the
seats of the mighty.
The Detroit Free Press,an indie
pendent Democratic paper of the
highest standing, quoting Mr..
Williams announcement, saws:
That impresses us as better sense
than We have heard from any
Democratic leader in many months.
The revision of the tariff is a real

AN UNSIGNED LETTER.

We are in receipt of typewrit-
ten letter From one of your read
ers and an admirer of the new edi-

us his name. The date of this let

imprint, and is postmarked by the
railway mail clerk on Train No.I4.
between Lexington and Winches-

we were going to print the letter.
even if twas not signed. The writ
er Is grossly mistaken in the state
ments he makes and we will take
great pleasure in proving to him
that there is neither similarity nor
connection between the two gentle
men he mentions as being the same.
Ordinarily, we pay no attention to
unsigned or anonymous letters. but
In this case we make an exception
because we want TO convince the
gentleman that he is very much in
the dark regarding matters which
he ought to be thoroughly &C
quainted with. We will not print
your correspondence unless YOU
desire it, and will write Just as
confidentially to you as you may
wish. Let us hear from you.

Seven years ago my wife commenced

not help her. She had FITS frequently, some
times very severe. Her hands would cramp

Rev. W. 7. Allan Resigns.

AS was announced in Wednesdays
Sentinel, Rev. w. T. Allan, rector of
Calvary church, resigned his charge at
a meeting of the vestry held last Tues
day night, and this morning the Sentinel
publishes the letter of resignation and
also the resolutions passed by the vestry
upon accepting the same. Mr. Allan's
letter was as follows:
Sedalia, Mo-, Nov. 10, 1908.
To the Wardens and Vestry of Calvary
Church, Sedslia. Mo.
Gentlemen: Finding this vestry unable
TO pay my salary promptly as per con-
tract, owing to the removal of nearly
one hundred communicates in one year.
and other conditions over which | have
no control, and the burden of debt upon
the parish, l hereby tender my resigna-
ton for the second time as rector of this
parish, the same TO take effect the Tues
day after Easter, in the year of our Lord
nineteen hundred and four, this date be.
ing fixed TO secure TO the parish the
Lenten services so necessary to it's well
fare, and 10 allow me time TO perfect NV
arrangements for leaving. Thanking
the vestry for all the cOurtesies they
have extended me, am,
Faithfully yours in Christ.
w. T. ALLAN.
When the resignation Of Mr.. Allan
had been accepted the vestry adopted
these resolutions.
Resolved, That in accepting our rec
tors resignation we record our deep re-
gret that the loss by removal from the
parish of one hundred members in one
year and other conditions over which
the rector had no control, rendered this
vesiry unable TO pay his salary as agreed.
and that we deem his s,rvices worth
more than our parish can raise.
Resolved, That our rector's pulpit
ministrations have been characterized
by ability and that he has earnestly aud
conscieniiously striven to build up and
preserve harmony in our parish during
his stay here, and that he has ever been
a courteous and christian gentleman.
Resolved. That this vestry invoke the
blessings of God upon his labors wher-
ever he may go.
Mr.. Allan, who has been in Sedalia
two years, is one Of the most scholarly
and cultured diviues in the city. He is
also very forcible and eloquent pulpit
orator and his sermons have always been
considered examples of the best in theo-
logical thought and have been the source
OF great inspiration to those who were
privileged TO hear him. His pulpit utter
ances have always been such as to lead
TO the higher and better ideas and have
resulted in the upbuilding Of the moral
and religious sentiment Of tie communi-
~. His loss will be felt by many in Sc
dalia who have looked TO him for coun-
sci and advice.
What Mr.. Al!an's plans for the future
are, he has not disclosed, but without
doubt he will go from Sedalia TO larger
field of labor In going he and his es-
Unable wife will carry with them the
hearty well wishes of many who have
felt the helpfulness of their tender
Christian ministrations.-Sed mo
