of Alexander Campbell, but no one
supposes that their followers pay
homage to them. Neither do the
followers Of Mrs. Eddy worship
her. 1t is well known fact that
Christian Scientists are studying
their Bibles as never before, and are
obeying Jesus injunction TO search
the Scriptures, and are assimilat-
ing the reaching and character Of
Christ. In this, Christian Scien-
fists are ardent followers Of Mrs.
Eddy whose whole life brearhes
and exemplifes the Spirit of the
Master.
Your assertion that MRS. Eddy
copied the material for her main
book, Science and Health from the
writings of DR.. Quimby of Portland,
Me-, of whom she was pupil" is
a statement which has been so often
exposed and retuted, that we are
astounded that there are people yet
to be found, who will lend them
selves to repetition of the same
erroneous statement. DR.. Quimby
never taught his method OF healing.
When asked by patient, how he
healed, he frankly admitted that he
did not know how. DR.. Quimby
was Mesmerist. Mesmerism,
spiritualism, magnetic manipula-
ton, the practice used by DR..
Quimby, has nothing in common
with Christian Science. They are
as opposite as day and night. Chris
tian Science repudiates them.
You assert that the Christian Scien-
fists claim to the power to heal has
been "proven to be false''. It is a
we'll known fact, that thousands of
authentic cases of healing are to be
found in every village and city in
our land, and in other countries.
These historic facts can easily be
learned, as they are before the
public.
Christian Science courts investi-
cation. While the larg est number
of its adherents have embraced this
doctrine through their own healing,
after having suffered many things
by many physicians" and had been
given up by the regulars" large
number have become Scientists
through the sublime teaching con-
corning God and his full salvntion
from uncertainty and skepticism, as
we'll as from sin and sickness. They
are to be found among the officers of
the army and the navy, judges,
lawyers, ministers of the gospel,
physicians and business men.
'Beware" of judging unrighteous
judgment, but ''investigate", 'in-
vestigate". Respectfully,
(Rev.) M. G. MANN,
Christian Science Publication Com
mittee for Idaho.

THEY RAISED The
MONEY EASILY

Quite a number Of the Women's
clubs of the state pledged them
selves to help raise the money to
furnish the Women's rooms of the
Idaho building at the St. Louis ex-
position, the Chautauqua circle of
this town being one of this number.
They decided when each one had
earned a dollar for that object, to
meet and have an experience social.
On Friday Feb. goth Mrs. Louis
Goldsmith asked the ladies to be her
guests and a very pleasant afternoon
was spent. After dainty and appetiz-
ing refreshments were served each
lady gave an account of how she
earned her dollar, the accounts were
varied and amusing. one lady even
lapsing into verse.
Have to earn dollar
How shall begin?
Haul load of sage-brush
Or take some washing in?
Oh! believe I've struck it,
Put my wits together
Make some little penwipes
Designed and burnt leather,
Take them to the "Circle'
Show them with delight
Amt | mighty lucky?
Think I'm rather bright.

The Directors of the Pioneer Irri-
cation District were called in special
meeting by the secretary last Satur-
day the 27th in consequence of the
refusal of Mr.. Chris Horton to ac-
cept the place of superintendent.
Mr.. Horton mad made application
for the position through Mr., Gala
wav of the Board, and lengthy
netition was filed in his behalf.
He was accepted upon his own
terms, namely $4,000 a month
with team furnished and provision
cd. Upon his refusal to take the
position, the hoard was called to
consider other applications. There
upon Mr.. Warren Culver was ap-
pointed superintendent of construc-
ton at salary of $125 per month.
At the preceding meeting, the
report of A. J. Wiley, employed to
examine into the condition of work
on canals and so on was received
read and ordered published. At
this meeting, the report of the COM
mittee, B. S. Weymouth and A. II.
Boyd, having been published, was
read, and an order was made direct
ing that both reports be filed in the
office of the District.
The Secretary was directed on
the 10th to deposit $97s with the
Railroad Agent at Caldwell, as de-
handed by the Railroad Company,
for placing siphons under railroad
for lateral 1873 and a smaller one
near Nampa.
Directions were given Superinten-
dent Culver to push work as rapidly
as possible, and similar directions
we're given to Engineer Hedden.
At the regular meeting of the
Directors on the first some impor-
tant steps were taken looking to the
completion of the Districts irriga-
ton system.
On the report of Engineer He'd
den pointing out the necessity for a
large lateral to pick up water from
the terminus of the Caldwell High
Line, it was ordered that the engi-
neer proceed to cross section the
line surveyed by Mr.. w. H.
Schenck and that the Superinten-
dent of construction, Mr., Warren
Culver, proceed as soon as possible
to the construction of the lateral.
This lateral will touch Indian Greek
near John Nichols place, and be
connected with the High Line by a
hume across Indian Greek. The
lateral will from there extend in
south westerly course, going un-
der the railroad little way above
+. Blossoms, thence to the
north side of c. M. Wilson's and
running on grade to the east side
OF d. c. Clemens place. This
lateral is designed to serve some
5000 acres of land. Work on it
Will be pushed as rapidly as posi-
Die. An order was made to aban-
don the old Caldwell Canal from
len Mile down.
The petition of Michael Shrock
to have about 1914 acres ofland ly-
Ing under the Phyllis admitted into
the District was granted, as also
was the petition of George A. Nc
Arthur to have 9H acres under the
Phyllis admitted.
1t being considered bad policy to
put checks in the main canals
Wherever it can possibly be avoided,
President Egleston was authorized

No Change in Number of Dead and

Especial to News and Observer.)

Especial to News and ObserVer.)
Winston Salem, N. c., Nov. 4-The
second day after the greatest catastro-
phe that has ever befallen the Twin
City, Winston Salem, is still pervaded
by a deep gloom as result of the
horrible affair. Although a large
force Of hands have been hard at
work in the effort to remove all Wis
ible signs of the reservoir disaster it
will live for years in the memory of
those who have looked upon the
CHASTITY scene of ruin and desoiation,
Yesterday and today a number of
wild rumors have been afloat, as is
usually the case after an affair of this
kind. One of these was to the effect
that three more bodies had been
found buried in the sand near the
railroad junction. Another report mad
it that two bodies had been found in
Belo's pond. Both of these rumors
proved to be unfounded and the Off
cial number Of the dead remains at
nine, the injured numbering eight.
Latest reports from the injured
most of whom are at the hospital,
state that they are doing well and
that all of them will probably re-
cover. Mr. Martin Peoples, who was
thought at first to have been seriously
hurt, is progressing as well as could
bp expected and no serious outcome OF
his injury is feared.

Brisk Artillery Fire.
(By the Associated Press.)

Mukden. Nov 4.-There was a brisk
exchange of artillery fire here yester-
day, extending from the village of Lin
chintoun eastward on both sides of the
railroad, but the firing ceased at noon.
The Japanese are continuing their
concentration opposite the Russian
center. The Japanese positions along
their whole line are strongly fortified
and they are now entrenching along
the Hun river to the westward.
ON Monday, on the Russian extreme
right, a squadron of Don COssacks
charged a battery of Japanese artil-
lery near Lidantoun. The Cossacks
went forward at gallop through Il
field of uncut millet against the tirc
OF the battery and had almost reached
the guns when a couple of companies
OF Japanese infantry rose up and
poured IN several volleys, compel ing
the cavalrymen to ride out of the Geld
at an even faster pace than they went
in it. The Cossacks lost about twen-
ty-five men.

emergency which has come upon us
Democracy is conservative; and a
conservative government was never
more needed than now. Democracy
insists that the Constitution should be
the chart and constant Guide of Ma
tional conduct; and never was a re-
newal of obedience to Constitutional
commands more necessary. The Dem
ocratic party regards tariff charges
as a tax upon the people justified only
by the necessity of providing for the
expenses of their government; and it
holds that like all other taxes, these
charges should be as equitably dis
tributed as possible. 1t condemns tar
iff legislation for the sole purpose of
protection, as an unavoidable source
of inequality and favoritsm and as
promotiVe of oppressive Industrial
combinations; and so far as tariff
duties imposed for revenue may Incl
dentally result in some degree of pro
lection ii insists that this should be
so arranged as to best subserve the
general welfare.
No Warfare ON the Rich.
Our party makes no warfare upon
the rich nor upon any legitimate en-
terprise. It's definition of American
citizenship is broad enough and just
enough to embrace all people--the
rich and poor alike-and all corpora
tions and associations of capital, legiti-
mately engaged in legitimate business;
but it insists that the government
should in no way and by no device
or abuse of it's functions be accesso-
ry to the creation of vast combina-
tions of industrial and business en-
terprises whose inevitable tendencies
are to control wrongfully the cost of
our peoples living and strangle indie
pendent and individual business eff
fort.
Equality before the law and equal
opportunity for all, define cardinal
democratic doctrine. Under this flag
we fight the battle of the people. We
seek to again invest them with the
equality which is their right by virtue
of American citizenship and to re-
store to them the equal opportunity
which is the right of American man
hood.

Monroe, N. c., Nov. 4.-Judge JUS
tice adjourned court here today in
order that the people might have an
opportunity of hearing Senator F. M.
Simmons speak.
First Hon. Frank Armfield intro
duced Mr.. Fred J. Coke. of Wilkes
boro, candidate for the State Senate
from this district, who after urging
upon the people of Union county the
importance of the election, called
upon the Republicans if there be any
here today to get on the band wagon
of pure Democracy and go hand III
hand with the best people on earth.
AS Mr.. Coke closed he introduced
the speaker of the evening, Hon. f.
NJ. Simmons.
1t is impossible for the writer to
give a detailed statement of this great
statesman's speech. 'Tis needless to
say that he held the eager attention
of his immense audience for two
hours. He pictured very wildly the
condition of national affairs showed
up Roosevelt in his true light of a
seeker of the purple and pictured
him as an enemy to the South.
After discussing at some length the
condition of national affairs the Sen
ator took UP State issues, he said
that as to the government each of the
two parties had given since the war
was "about the kind of government
that might have been expected from
their representative makeup.
Mr.. simmons stated that the Watts
Law and the Constitutional Amend
ment had just about driven the Re-
publican party out of business. In
closing he said that this was his last
speech during the campaign. He ad-
ded that he felt good. He felt that
he had been baptized again into the
Democratic principles.
When he ceased speaking the court
house was filled with yells for Sim
mons.
This IS Mr.. Simmons first visit to
Union county. but l dare say it won t
be his last one.

Chefoo, Nov $3.50 p. m.-Chinese

also that during the recent battle fresh

Killed or wounded in front of Port
Arthur during the last three months
approximate 10000.
There are persistent rumors that
the Japanese have occupied the forts
of Rihlung mountain and certain forts
of the Keekwan mountain group, but
we'll informed Japanese here consider
these rumors as premature. These
Japanese, however, are confident that
the end of the Russian occupation of
Fort Arthur is fast approaching.
The fact that General Nogi COM
mander of the third Japanese army
before Port Arthur, has allowed the
Associated Press dispatches to leave
the front of the base of his opera
tions, is looked upon as strongly indi-
eating the confident spirit of the be-
sieSerS.
Further tidings of events at Port Ar
thur are awaited with an intensely
OF interest greater than any displayed
since the beginning OF the war.
