THE LIFE OF
JOHN STAFFORD
TRIBUTE TO DECEASED BY IRA G.
EDWARDS.
Former NIinnesota Methodist Worker
Highly Praised by One Who Knew
Him intimately - Loss of Mr.. STAFF
ford Great Loss to Metfodism.

Methodism has lost much III the
recent death at Los Angeles of Rev.
John Stafford, former presiding elder
Of this and other Minnesota districts.
Many tributes are paid'to his memory.
Ira c. Edwards of Minneapolis says
Of MI. Stafford and his life:
1.-The recent death Of Rev. John
Stafford Of Los Angeles came like a
bolt from the blue and has touched
the hearts of thousands in the twin
cities and the middle west Permit
me to voice the sentiment Of multi
! tudes Of your readers IN a brief tribute
to one whose life and character has
written his name on the imperishable
tablet of human hearts. To know
John Stafford well was to love him
deeply. While others of far less abili-
ty may have enjoyed a wider range of
acquaintance as an orator, a writer,
student and preacher, none other
could boast deeper place in the
hearts Of his friends than he held.
"Of rare ability as a preacher,
strong and trenchant as a writer and
an orator, his power in these directions
was lost in the overwhelming strength
that was evidenced by the gentle and
simple purity of the man of God.
"Noble in all that goes to make up
true nobility; just in all things, yet
softening his decisions with Christ
like charity; brave and fearless in the
discharge of every duty; with a warm
hand clasp. for the needy and tears
of genuine sympathy for the suffer-
ings of others, John Stafford lived so
close to the Master that, like the Mas
ter, he. was loved for himself. The
true value Of such a life can never
be told except as it is written in COM
ing years in the history which he
helped to make.
| "One remarka BILE fact which has
often been commented upon is that,
thru all the work; and worry of his
eventful life, he never lost the baby
face that God gave him when he came
| into being. And that face was the
| index of a soul as pure as snow.
/ "Out of his great heart there flowed
a ceaseless flood of love for his fell
! lows. He was a man to look up to
| and to lean upon. He never failed,
never faltered, never weakened. For
| nearly forty years. he stood in the
| vanguard of Christian workers, point
ing the faces Of men:and women to-
ward the cross of Christ. To-day he
stands beside the Master whom he
served and loved reckoning us on
| ward and upward.} -
'The world en- Hrnasse may never
know the worth Of such life as his,
but if each to whom he has been help
| full were to lay a remembrance upon
his grave, the monument would reach
from earth to heaven. A simple, pa
tient, loyal man of God has gone to
| his reward, and heaven Is enriched
| while earth is better for his having
| lived. e.. * ~ ~
| I'm all Of earth there never lived
a nobler. better, >sWeeter, purer man ma !.
than he" * Ms Il y, - Ia

NOT A TRUST.

A mistake often made bv newly.organ-
lied retail merchants associations is in
encouraging the idea that their aims,
purposes and proceedings must be kept
secret from the public. The more nearly
successful they are in this regard the
more unfortunate. A clear, frank state
ment of the objects of organization will
disabuse the public mind Of the idea
that it is being formed for purposes pre-
judicial to the best interests of consumers
az well as dealers. and remove weapon
from the hands OF enemies who delight
in referring to the association as an
ubiquitous trust" People of ordinary
common sense will readily recognize the
justice of the association dealers posi-
ton, once it was explained to them, but
let the matter be clouded with mystery
and any kind of "dope" will be as freely
accepted. Coast Trade.

Everysfriend of organized labor de.
plores the present conditions in Colo
RADIO. Doubtless the majority outside of
those active in quelling the present
troubles in that section will severely
blame the miners without asking the
question what has led to the trouble ;
and doubtless the miner curses the mad
act that precipitated the drastic measures
adopted by the state and citizens general
ly to ensure public safety. Whichever
way we look at it, the fact remains that
in this country intelligence alone must
rule. Bossism whether in political or
industrial circles is always an ulcer, and
always thrives where intelligence, is not
in the ascendency. The element con.
trolling the miners union in Cripple
Creek, certainly showed great lack of
that necessary power which alone can
mean success in the harmonizing of con.
ditions which means prosperity to the
workman and security to the employer.
Like the war of 1S60-64, the effects of
this trouble will take years to heal, and
like it, only drastic measures on the part
of the government will clear the air Of
the noxious ideas that have taken
possession Of the party involved.

During nine months OF the current
fiscal year the commerce Of the United
States with non.contiguous territory
amounted to $66,7sl, 2ls, exclusive Of
$500, sol in domestic gold receivedfro
Alaska. The total is 81, 900, 900 in excess
of the trade for the corresponding period
OF 1908, and it is expected that the aggre-
gate will 60 to 100000. 900. Some
interesting comparisons are afforded of
the growth o. trade with these posses
sions during the past half decade. For
nine months of 1898 our imports from
Porto Rico were 81 ,S45, l24 from Hawaii,
$10,954 $50, and from the Philippines,
$2,740,034. For the same time in 1904
Porto Rico found market in the United
States for merchandise to the value of
1851 ,574 !. Hawaii, $14,6l3,6 $50, and the
Philippines, $9,S6$.1S Exports to
Porto Rico in the first three quarters OF
the fiscal year 1898 were 1851 1925; in
1904. $500, 1888; to Hawaii, 1920 900
in 1898 and 5000 $50 in 1904; to the
Philippines, $75. 72S in 1898 and 1861, :
$40 in 1904. The expansion in mutual
trade is an encouraging feature of the
progress, being made under American
rule. while the balance of trade in favor
of the islands is indicative OF the, fact
that they have protited through the al
legiance which opens to them the best
and most profitable of the worlds
markets.

HOQUIAM WINS FROM CENTRALIA.

A number of the fans went to Ho.
GUAM yesterday to witness the game
between the P. G.'s and the Centralia
boys. Grim was in the box for Contra
liza and pitched good game until the
seventh inning when an unfortunate
accident happened to Brodhal in left
field, and four hits netted the p. G's
three scores. Law who was on the slab
for Hoquiam, started off badly, but
settled down after the second, and had
the heavy sluggers from Centralia at his
mercy during the balance of the game,
allowing them only two hits after the
second.
Baxter, the former captain of the P.
G.'s was not in the game, Swartz their
old captain held first, and won the game
for them by his timely batting, making
three OF the ten hits. Following ia the
