ing duty on bounty-fed sugar Of 1-lO
of a cent per pound. This was a blow
at Germany, which had been stimu-
lating her beet sugar industry by, a
bounty on exports. Germany bore this
and even .oyercame it by raising the
bounty, but when the Dingley law
came along with its provision that
bounty,fed sugar should pay an addi-
tional tax equal to the bounty Ger
many went into the air.
A tariff war has been threatening
ever since. It may become a fact
when the new German tariff comes into
effect next March. The new German
taxes on meats and -four will be much
higher than the French taxes on the
same classes, which are prohibitory.
The American cattle grower has
thus been shut out Of the European
market by the Dingley law, and no.
body has gained except the sugar
trust, which is said to realize side
profit of $10,0OO,OO0 annually on the
exclusion of German sugar. 49,.
AS pointed out the other day, a tariff
war would not be all Germany's way,
as she has large trade with this coun-
try in chemicals and toys, which could
be dispensed with much easier than
she could do without our foodstutfs.

Member Of the Church.

Member Of the Church.
AS a sequel to his sermon, Chow to
Live Together in the Home" deliv-
cred a week before, Rev. Otis G.. Dale
of Shiloh Presbyterian church, spoke
yesterday on "How to Live Together
in the Church, He said in part:

associatio nor an organization for
convenience in doing things, or for the
purpose of enjoying worship, but the
church is a company Of believers.

pressions, but they indicate real rela-

GA great need of the day is to get
together on the great fundamentals
of essential truth and work them out,
burying minor differences of opinion.
"Absolute frankness is necessary at
all times between the pastor and peo-
pie. The pastor of a Protestant church
is in no sense a priest He is lord of
no mans conscience. He is not unap-
proachable. The cause of short pas
torates and of failure that make them
necessary, lies back in some failure on
one side OF the other to trust and be
frank, open-hearted.
GIN regard to the relation of people
and the pastor s wife, there is but one
word to be said-the pastors wife is a
member of the church-no more, no

WHAT OTHER PEOPLE THINK
The Fowler Church Affair.

To the Editor of The Journal
In your issue Of Aug. 10 there ap-
peared an article headed "Divided
Minds at Fowler M. E.' which gave a
Of affairs existing today in that
the last regular quarterly conference.
Now that the public is enlightened to
some extent as to what took place at
that meeting, kindly permit me as Sec
rotary of that meeting to give the
plain facts.
That meeting was the third regu-
lar quarterly conference held in due
tle regular course of business, j. H.
Kerrick, chairman of the board of
trustees, arose and stated that this be-
ing the proper time, he wished to fol
low out what he knew would be the
wishes of our beloved Bishop Joyce,
if he were here. He stated that DR..
Cool had served this church accept
ably for four years, that he was the
best preacher Fowler church ever had,
(HilD, that he had done remarkable
work for the church and been an in
SEPARATION to the people by his example,
and profound spiritual preaching, and
he would therefore move that this
board extend to DR.. Cool unanimous
invitation to be their pastor next year,
and that Bishop Mcdowell be asked to
make the appointment. -,
would like to second that motion, but
he did not think it was the. proper
time to make it, as it was not fair
to DR.. Cool to pass a resolution like
that without full attendance of the
board; that he ought to receive an in
dorsement that was worthy Of him and
the work he had done. Mr. Kerrick re-
piled that as thiswas the third quarter
ly conference they had to take it up
now 1T they took it up at all, and that
after the motion was passed it would
be easy to get signatures of all the alb
sent members. ...H -.a.
Mr.. McClintock the seconded the
motion, saying that at first he was in
clined to differ with some of Mr.. Ker-
rick s remarks, for he considered the
first pastor or rather the first pastor
Of Fowler that he had known CDR.
CooD was as good as any we had had
since, but he would change that for he
believed that he was better preacher
now than he was then; that he be-
lived he was better preacher now
than he was last year; in fact he be-
heyed that he got better every day.
Other members spoke on the motion
euloglzlng Dr. Cool and cOmpllmenting
him on the work he had done, espe-
cially emphasizing the straightfor-
ward and fearless, tho kindly, manner
in which he, presented the word Of God
to the people.
Owing to DR.. Cool being in charge
of the meeting, by request Of Presid-
ing Elder Fielder, who is absent in
England, the motion was put by the
writer and every member voted aye,
the motion being 50 entered on the
records. It was therefore surprise
to me to learn, some DAYS E.ter, that
Messrs, Kerrick and McClintock were
circulating round robin, stating that
they did not mean it; in other words
that it was a joke. and asking those
who were present at the conference to
sign it; Surely if their earnest and
forceful words when talking on the
motion were a joke, they are come
dams Of the first water and are
worthy Of comedian preacher.

Sugar and Pork.

The reciprocity conference in Chi
cago will have for one of it's prime
war cries the restoration of our meat
trade with the German empire.
The long-d rawn-out controversy be-
tween this country and Germany has
ragged around sugar and pork. Ger.
many formerly took immense quanti-
ties Of our preserved meats, but about
twenty-five years ago began a system
attic course of discrimination, which
has nearly ruined the trade. This was
accomplished by curious interpreted
tion of her own tariff laws. Imports
of meats from the United States were
classified as Hfne iron ware' because
of the tin receptacles in which they
arrived. Sugarcured hams were as
sessed as cotton goods, and the meek
and lowly Goldfish found itself CLASH
fed as wooden ware because it came
in wooden case. This course was
followed by Germany for the purpose
of bringing these imports under a
higher duty and thus restoring the bal
ance of trade which was running
against Germany.
Mr.. Blaine in 1892 got at the matter
of Germany's grievance thru reci-
procity clause in the Mckinley law.
This permitted him to offer the Ger
mans low duty upon beet sugar pro-
vided they would be reasonable about
American meats.
The sugar trust got after the gov
eminent Of this country, and in the
next tariff law there was duty on
sugar and an additional counteryail-

If Ito Had Succeeded.

While interest centers from all parts
Of the world in the little village Of
Portsmouth, where the representatives
Of Russia and of Japan are each seek
ing to make the best possible terms Of
settlement of their controversy, it is
Interesting to recall the visit of Mar
quis Ito to Europe in 1901 and the con-
sequences Of failure on the part of the
European powers to appreciate its inn
portance.
Attention is called to the matter by
M. Paul Deschanel, who was for four
years president of the French chamber
Of deputies and is now chairman of the
French parliamentary committee on for
eign and colonial affairs.
M. Deschanel is in position to write
advisedly, and he cites the fact that in
1901 Marquis Ito undertook by per-
sonal visit to bring about an under
standing between Japan, France and
Russia with view to the accommodate
ton of their respective interests in the
far east.' His overtures, however,
were not well received either in Paris
or in st. Petersburg. Japan at that
time was regarded as negligible guam
tity in oriental affairs. Japan had
yielded recently to the superior force Of
the European nations which had robbed
her of the fruits of her victory over
China, and it was not supposed that it
was necessary or even worth while to
make anv alliances with her
Turned down in Paris and in ST..
Petersburg, Ito found more cordial
reception in Great Britain and laid the
foundation for the restrictive alliance
made between Japan and the British
government.
It is the opinion Of Deschanel that an
added reason for his failure was the in
terposition Of Germany, which looked
with disfavor upon any understanding
between Russia and Japan which would
check the advance of Russia in Man
churia and Korea. On the contrary,
Germany favored such aggressions on
the part Of the Russians in the east,
hostility on the part Of Japan and in
volve Russia with the island empire.
Just that has come about and Des-
chanel believes that Germany will now
seek to block satisfactory and perma-
nent settlement of the present contro-
versy because Germany wishes Russia
to be engaged in the far east: for while
Russia is SO engaged, Germany hopes to
be able to dominate the politics of Eu-
rope and the near east. 1t is all part
of the great game of the balance of
power which it has cost so much to
maintain in the past.
Deschanel s theory for the defeat Of
Germany's scheme is the maintenance
of the cordial relations between France
and Great Britain and the inclusion Of
Russia in that understanding. Such an
arrangement would in large measure
isolate Germany and destroy the power
Of that nation to dominate Europe. It
is quite possible, therefore, that while
specializing upon the possibilities Of an
agreement between Witte and Komura,
it will be necessary to take into account
influences not at all visible in the Ports
mouth conference, but which are none
the less powerful and insistent.
