lpother about the American people hav-
ing decided the question. and demands
that their decision shall be respected,
But we submit that the American peo-
pie have decided no such question
When It comes to cars and steam show
els, rails and most other appliances the
question is not between American
made articles and articles Of a foreign
make. It is a simple question Of where
we shall purchase them, at home OF
abroad; for in either case we shall get
American goods.
The question is shall our government
pay more for American goods than
the English, Russian or Japanese gov-
lernments pay for these goods? The
American people have never passed on
that question. and if It were put to
them specifically there could be but
one answer
Now the partisan press of the DEM
'ocratic persuasion seems 10 regard this

protection to American industries It
occurs to us that there is no warrant
for such a conclusion. The tarin may
be too low TO afford sufficient protec-
.tion to keep our factories open. or it
may be too high, in which case they
charge for their goods abroad less
than they are willing to take at home.
But as this Is not true Of all sorts Of
American industries. we must con-
clude that the tariff schedules merely
require adjustment view that the
President has expressed on more than
one occasion.
The President is properly anxious for
Congress to determine the matter for
it is the business of Congress. He
gave that body one opportunity and he
viii doubtless give it another. This
time it may have to declare its posi-
tion.

We are an willing TO admit that
Proper play has an educational, a phy-
sical and a moral value, and doubtless
we an need more healthful diversion,
but the necessity for burdeuing the
curriculum with 1t is not apparent.
For enforced play is the worst OF
drudgery and we are certain that II
football were required, college men
would go on strike.
Row about the amount of time that
is now spent IN study Is necessary II
our boys and girls are to be equipped
for this modern strenuous life. But
undoubtedly there should be more gem
eral play outside OF study periods.
The trouble with our schools and
colleges is that play is confined to "a
few picked mem the rest become spec
tators. The result is that the few are
overtrained and the mass is not trained
at all

had an idea that play is unbecoming

CHURCHES UNITE
Cumberland Church Is Re,
ceived Into the General
Assembly
GREAT QUESTION NOW SETTLED

Winona Lake. Ind. May 23.-Amid
a storm Of applause, without debate or
a dissenting voice, the General AS
sembly OF the Presbyterian church
voted to reunite with the Cumberland
Presbyterian body. which withdrew
from the original denomination OF
February 4, 1910, thereby. so far as the
main church is concerned, bringing
together the two largest branches of
the Presbyterian faith. The. Cumber-
land conference, now in session in
Fresno Cal, has not yet decided as
to union.
II the opposition TO the union has
made any fight 1t has been chiefly at
the secret meetings of the special can
vassing committee, but there were no
signs of such a contest The special
committee in its report canvassed the
votes taken by presbyteries on the
question of union. 1t showed 144 votes
yes, SO no. Two took no action, one
gave conditional assent and five made
no report. The special committee in
its recommendations asked that the
proposition be referred to the commit
tee on cooperation and union, that the
committee be increased in member
ship to 21, that it have power to con-
fer with a committee from the Cum
berland church, that it find what de-
tails must be worked out to consum-
mate the union, and that report be
made to the general assembly next
year. This committee is to consider
the corporate and legal rights of both
general assemblies. The purpose is to
keep the consolidation within legal
limits so that all civil suits and in
functions may be avoided. The report
was accepted as a whole. The com
mittee is to make report on some other
affairs. including consolidation with
the Reformed church, and its business
was made a special order.
An official telegram was read by
Stated Clerk Roberts from the colored
Cumberland assembly. in session at
Huntsville, Ala. saying a committee
Of seven had been appointed to con-
slider union with the Presbyterian
church. and asked that a similar com
mittee be named by the assembly
here. It was referred to the commit
tee on bills and overtures. The as
sembly then took a recess.
The assembly voted to select a spe-
clal committee to arrange for a cele-
bration during May Of next year of the
20oth anniversary of the formation of
the first presbytery in Philadelphia.
II is understood this celebration will
be held in Philadelphia. The PROPOSE
ton to allow separate presbyteries in
the boundaries of old presbyteries was
adopted with but one dissenting vote.
This is TO allow separate presbyteries
for negroes and foreigners.

GOOD ENOUGH
FOR TO STEAL
Judge Pendergast's Drainage
Address SWiped by all the
Papers in the State.

The hit of the drainage conven-
ton at Crookston this week was
Judge Pendergast's address on
"Actual G. Conditions in the North. /"
The address presented some
startling figures and some strik-
ing new arguments. What Judge
Pendergast said has been quoted
in every one Of the big papers Of
the state and credited in each
instance to some local elebrity.
In Duluth Senator Laybourn was
made to say it, in Minneapolis
Ray Jones got the credit while
St. Paul marked it up to State
Engineer Ralph. The Mime
apolis Journal for Thursday
evening published an editorial
composed almost entirely of the
literal words used by Judge
Pendergast.
The Judge should be much
pleased with this testimony to
the superior excellence of his adj
dress. Newspapers never steal
anything but the best. ].

NATURAL GROWTH
Births are Almost Double
Number of Deaths---Enum-
orators Checking Up.

+ J. =
The records of births and
deaths complied by the state
board of health for 1904 will be
the most complete in the history
of Minnesota. Through a check
ing up system carried out by the
enumerators who took the 1905
census the board has secured
the names of 1900 persons who
died during 1904 that were not
reported by the local health Off
GERS, as required by the law.
This will bring the total mum
Der Of deaths for the year to
about 10000, as compared with
5000 births. It is stated that
these figures are as nearly accur-
ate as can be secured and prob
ably represent the correct ratio
between births and deaths.
aEven with the addition of 1 500
deaths for 1904 there is no dam
ger of Minnesota's population
running out, !" said a state official.

SIX DAYS AND
NIGHTS In WOODS
Mrs. Hendrickson Shows
Marvellous Endurance
Terrible Experiences.

The Hubbard County Enter
prise gives the following account
of the perils and sufferings of
Mrs. Hendrickson, 80 years old,
accounts of whose being lost APP
peared at various times in these
columns during the past ten
days:
Mrs. Hendrickson, living about
five miles east of Lake George,
started to return home from a
neighbors Monday afternoon of
last week and lost her way. For
six days she wandered about in
the woods and swamps, living on
berries, and building a fire nights
by which she could keep warm
and keep away any wolves or
other animals that might be
prowling around. For two days
and two nights she was lost in a
swamp and during that time she
could find no berries and was
without anything to eat But in
spite Of her age, and the fact
that life in the woods unprotected
from the flies and mosq uitoes is
almost unindurable Mrs. Hen
erickson fought her way through
and had found her way to familiar
locations when members of the
hunting party came upon her.
She was feeling much better
than could have been expected
and is now suffering no serious
inconvenience from the trials
which she experienced during
the six days she was lost. All
hope of finding her alive had
been given up Friday, as there
had been considerable rain dur
ing two Of the days and the
nights were cool.
