A FINE INVESTMENT.

legs crossed about the small Of
his back, be began by refusin to
talk. Either the Norwegian or the
reporter announced that they, the
Dawes Commission present, were
too smart to talk, (but Soper had
already beaten them to that stunt).
Stanley has played the wild and
talked out of school, in fact has
beenseized with diarrhea of words
and constipation of ideas in the
opinion of the oily Bixby. With
d cold cadaverous smile Bixby
said he would like an investiga
tion, but would select the congress
sional variety, as congress is the
great political tribune of the coun-
try ,and politics are easier managed
than the keen edge OF Hitchcock u
wrath. Between breaths il is said
Stanley is trying TO play the baby
act. Then Bixby begins to sh' W
signs of life. He strokes his iron
grey whiskers and turns his cold
cigar over, be looks def ant and
finally mutters:

THE NEW PREACHER.

A business locking mar in a nea,
sack suit called on an editor the other
day. Other callers who mad business in
the office passed in and out and saw q
bright looking business man talking
Iquietiy but animatedly with the editor
odist preacher with a growing reputa-
| ton as a pulpit orator and church
Icrganizer and manager. He talked
with political acument on state affairs,
/ discussed the appointment OF con-
temporary to the leadership of the ag-
! ricultural college with knowledge of the
| situation and of ,he causes that control
lit, and went away leaving an impress
SION of his excellent capabilities and
rare common sense behind him. He did
not obtrude his profession or ask adj
vantage or Difference on account of it.
There was nothing in his dress or man
FER that proclaimed the preacher. He
was simply G very common and earn
est gentleman.
There are many. but not enough, like
no real occasion for minister to wear
peculiar dress and talk like a COM
bination prayerbook and cyclopedia
There are many reasons why he should
not. The new minister must meet the
world on a common level and his power
for good lies more in his personality |
than ever before. People go past the
preacher to God nowadays. His power
to guide the church and influence the !
toward regeneration lies
much In his ability to make his person
atty felt. Clerical coats and assump-
ton of holiness gain seant attention.
Simple earnestness of belief in religion
md its application to everyday affairs
means much more than frock coats or
measured sentences.
The Chadbands in coat and charac-
err are gradually disappearing from
he ministry, giving place TO class of
,usiness-like ciergymen who are ready
o carry the church to the world in
stead of waiting for the world to con-
orm to the church: to plant the pre-
epts of piety in the market places and
pply the principles of their belief to
'ubiic as well as private life. There is
70 suggestion of church dominance in b
he dress or manner of these ministers !

verage man. They are effective both 8
S clergymen and as citizens. Let us /

DISPOSED TO BE FAIR.

| Colonel Raymond. one ,f the staunch-
dor>and good sense to take fair view
| of the recent convention result. His
editorial in the Hampton Recorder is
given In another column. He is WILL
| ing to admit that the Platform was a
compromise and believes 1t is idle to
quarrel about who got the best of the
bargain. He explains that what the
standpatters got was the elimination OF
the shelter" phrase and then proceeds
to set forth his Interpretation of what
the Iowa idea was. The T.-R. wishes
tn commend the Recorders view of the
convention result and at the same time
takes the liberty to venture a reply to
it's definition of the Iowa idea In the
hope that the remarks will be consid-
cred as dignified discussion in which
equally sincere and intelligent men can
disagree without seeming to quarrel.
The Recorder resents the imputation
that all opponents of the Iowa idea are
likewise opposed to the revision of the
present tariff at any time claiming for
itself that ii favors postponing tariff
tinkering until after the next presiden-
tial election. While this may be true
as regards the Recorders position, it
has been made very evident by Con-
hof to- LIT, oe
standpatter will never allow a single
schedule of the Dinghy bill to be
touched with the laid of my vote 1t
only demonstrates that standpatters
themselves may differ on this subject
Likewise. among the progressive re-
publicans, who believe the time has
come for the republican party to get
ready to revise Its protective tariff. |
there are those who insist that the task |
be tackled Immediately, and still others
who realize that the work is altogeth |
too important to be attempted on the |
eve of a presidential election when the |
democratic opposition and every per- |
sonal enemy of the administration |
would be playing politics instead of |
talking business While any tariff bill |
might be up for discussion. From these
Two views has come a tacit understand
ng that the postponement of the work
until the winter session OF 1904 Will be
to all provided the next re-
5ublican national platform states In
terms that such revision
will be then attempted. To this end
Governor Cummins has proclaimed for
himself. and the Iowa idea republicans
nave reiterated. that they will endeavor
o have such statement put into the
iext republican national platform. This
will be the issue in IoHa's next state
convention.
So far the Recorders kind of stand
1atter Is not so far away from the Iowa
6ea that II need oppose 1t longer, but
