Over the shade of Davis and to the
disgust of members of both sides of the
chamber, williams and Hay wrangled and
fought, the former emerging from the
fray discounted and sore at heart
The decline Of williams as a leader be-
gan at the Democratic convention in 81.
Louis last July. His keynote speech
as temporary chairman OF the convention,
which was intended as a reply to the
address OF Elihu Root delivered al Chi
cago the week previous was a fat fail
ure.
Mr.. williams announced some time ago
that President Roosevelt had stolen
Democratic thunder In his Interstate
commerce propaganda and that he was
ready 10 support the presidents policy
on the ground that It was good Demo
cratic policy.
Now he expresses opposition 10 the ad-
ministration rate measure reported by the
house committee on Interstate and for
eign commerce. But he is finding little
encouragement.
The Mississippi statesman's troubles as
"a leader began soon after the appearance
in Washington last week Of William j.
Bryan At that time II was reported
that Mr.. Bryan was instructing the Demo
Gratis on the rate question, and since then
Mr. Williams has found IL impossible 20
do anything with the minority OF which

The majority OF the Democrats are un-
doubtedly behind the Ddvey rate bill.
Some of them favor the bill introduced
by Representative Shackelford. while at
least % OF them are outspoken advocates
OF the bill framed for or by Representative
Hearst of New York
The spectacle OF two southern Demo
Gratis waving the bloody shirt in the
house will be long remembered by those
who witnessed it.
Williams and Hay went at each other
hammer and tongs, evidencing great Bit
that Mr.. Williams will not again be
rendered the office OF leader OF the
minority.
II is understood that Mr.. HAY Is an
aspirsnt for the honor and that he has
been awaiting an opportunity 10 start his
campaign for the place. The opportunity

recounted the doings of Mr.. Pratt in
the choir, of Mr.. Nichols, who in
worship as in music, was always
ready to do his part; of Lyman
Powell, the rarely resourceful super
intendent of the Sunday school; of
John Watson, the faithful lay
preacher, who carried the gospel TO
the outlying districts; of the violin
and bass viol of the choir, the first
musical instruments used to lead
the singing; all these and thou
sand more came up, now arousing
laughter and now drawing the tears.
At little after five all present were
called into the vestry, there to par
take of bountifu1 repast.
The session of the evening was
more formal in its nature. The
Rev. Mr.. Burnley gave few we'll
chosen remarks, after which VIM.
Gray, the only one of the church
boys to take up the ministry,
preached an instructive and uplift-
ing sermon. Prof. Huntington of
Carleton College then gave fine
address, full of thought and good
things, and then, after singing by
the choir, came the benediction and
the close of a day whose memory
will linger in the hearts of the chill
dren of the church.
Judge Allen P. Weld directed the af-
ternoon exercises with skill and per-
thence that were made possible by
his familiarity with many of the
scenes that were under considera-
ton. The Judges noted command
of speech afforded great pleasure
throughout the exercises, bat es-
pecia1ly was the audience gratified
when, in the absence of a speaker,
he extemporized an accurate, vivid,
rapid sketch of the lives of several
of the familiar, local church char
acters who have already passed to
their reward.

There are fewer Chinese in the
country than there were when the
exclusion act was passed. No Chi
nese can immigrate to this country
legally and the number struggled
into the country and the increase by
birth is less, combined, than the
number annually returning to China.
Thirty years ago there were over
100000 Cinnamon in the country.
In 1900 the census showed the num-
Der here to be I26,77S and the CEN
sus of 1900 made the number re-
naming in the country II9,7o7.
This includes 26,767 who were in
the Hawaiian islands and 3,II6 living
in Alaska. In the states there were
but 8o,894. Probably no Cinnamon
come here with the intention Of
makingsthis country their permanent
home. 1t is just as well for the
country that this is so.

We have under construction eight
armored cruisers and thirteen battle
ships whose completion varies from
ninety-fve to ten per cent. Com
pleted and ready for action we have
thirteen sea-going battleships and
three first class armored cruisers.
This is the aggressive naval force OF
heavily-armored warships. Of I'M
armored cruisers and gunboats there
are about fifty in commission. Be-
sides these vessels that are armed

one being from Mrs. Persis Ray
mond now residing at Whiting,
Kansas, and one from Mrs. Wales
of this city who was prevented by
i'll health from being present. Mrs.
RAYMOND and Mrs. Wales were both
charter members of the church and
with DR.. Milton Pratt of Kansas are
all of the original membership that
survive.
Mrs. Sarah Tozer then read a pa
per entitled, 1.-THE Musical History
of the Church" The fact that has
already been alluded to of the init
mate connection of the family of
which she is a member with the
story of it's music was both source
of embarrassment to the reader in
that it became of necessity so per-
sonal in many of its details as we'll
as of help in the intimate knowl
edge she had received for the same
reason. The paper was full of in
terest to all.
Following the reading of the pa
per a duet was sung by Mrs. Elmira
Powell, herself daughter of Mr..
Nichols, and Mr.. G. E. Pratt, a
nephew of G. w. Pratt and son of
Mr.. Asaph Pratt who SO often in the
old-time days aided in the musical
part of the service with his bass

The title of the next paper was
1.-The Passionate of Rev. VIM. Gill;"
which was read by Mrs. Alice P.
Weld in behalf of her mother, Mrs.
L. E. Powell.
Letters were then read from Mrs.
F.. Ballard and MGs. Ann Hickok
Swanson, after which Mrs. George
Pratt described "The Building of
the New Church." Mrs. Pratt hav-
ing, with other ladies of the church,
been largely instrumental in arous-
ing interest in the enterprise of
providing suitable house of wor-
ship when the men had become dis
couraged and disheartened by the
loss of the rather pretentious and
partly-constructed building which
had been commenced after the close
of the war of 1861 and which was
destroyed some time later by wind
storm, enabled her to write under
standingly of the difficulties which
were encountered and one by one
overcome by persistent efforts.
A letter from Rev. Mr.. B1akeslee,
former pastor of the church, and
one to whom the design of the pres
ent church edifce may be largely
credited, was next read. Following
this came a grand anthem sung by
the "old choir" in the execution of
which there was no lack of the spirit
and understanding. DR.. Ashley
then read paper upon "The Pas
tors | Have Known" DR.. Ashley
having been member of the church
for nearly twenty years and during
nearly all of the time a trustee and
residing near the parsonage, has
had a rare opportunity of knowing
the private as we'll as the public life
of those of whom he wrote. The
paper was listened to with deep in
terest.
The pastor now read extracts
from many letters, most of them
being from young people who had
gone out and were glad to say a few
words showing their loyalty to their
first church or the one of their
adoption when young, and the debts
owed by them for the instruction
and uplift gained in the church and
Sabbath school. Among the let
tiers read was one from Mr.. G. B.
Merrick, who for long time nad a
fine class in the Sunday school and
who remembers the church with
great affection, and one from R. V.
Pratt now of Portland, Oregon,
which was full of interest and good
cheer.
The regular program being COM
pleted nearly ali remained to enjoy
the hour of social intercourse and
for a little over an hour the church
reechoed with the hum of voices
To see the old people get together

Interestin Bulletins on Stock
Feeding.

The Experiment Station of the
University of Wisconsin has just
published three bulletins by Prof.
F. w. Woll on subjects relating to
the feeding of stock. The first on
"The Relation of Food to the Pro-
duction of Milk and Butter Fat by
Dairy Cows" discusses fully the
various factors which determine
economic dairy production and give
the results of the latest experiments
in this field made by the University
dairy herd. The second, "The Re-
lations of Food to Dairy Produc-
ton" is a more popular treatment of
the same subject. Prof. VOL and
6. A. Olson are joint authors on the
bulletin on "Licensed Commercial
Feeding Stufs,'' in which are pre-
scented the results of analyses Of
commercial feeding stuffs made in
accordance with the state feeding
stuff law; and the chief authorizations
and deficiencies in the guaranteed
contents of feeding stufs. The sta
ton has also just published the
twenty-frst annual report of its
work, a volume of 292 pages illus
trated with S. reproductions of
buildings, annals, crops, plants, etc.

VALUE OF THE PRESS AGAIN

Investigation of the big insur-
ance companies is the rendition of
a public service. The value of the
public press is again illustrated.
The light of publicity exerts a
powerful influence. The news
papersnot only help toexpose; they
also condemn. Without their in
fuence little can be accomplished.
1t is the publication of the facts
through the newspapers that has
aroused such universal interest. A
great outrage has been committed
1t not only merits the severest con
demnation but it demands such
reformation, such remedial action
as viii prevent such things in the
future.

LITTLE PART IN LEGISLATION

The Washington Post, which
has always manifested interest in
and friendship for the South, not
ing that the assertion of the Louis

come into the political deal? Whom

Name him. Where is there man

say that Kentucky is not in that
fix. We say this in the utmost
kindness, and say it only because
it is the truth. IT'S true, it's pity,

JUSTICE TO COUNTRY PAPERS

Editor Mcintosh of the Albany
Herald, in a very forceful and time
ly article, stands up for the smaller
papers of the state against the i'm
position of that long line of Office
seekers in requesting the free pub
LEGATION of their political views
and announcements for office. These
articles are paid for at full rates
in the metropolitan papers, but
the small daily and the country
weekly are expected to do it gratis.
There is no reason why this
should be the case, but it is true.
The Herald says in part:
"a country newspapers space
costs it something. 1t is it's stock
in trade. That papers of this class
are generous in treatment of candi-
dates none will deny. They give
away hundreds of columns every
year to charity of one kind or
another;but it is asking rather too
much when they are invited to
donate whole pages at a clip to
seekers after public office.
eve cannot refrain from men
tioning in this connection the fact,
well known to many, that the At
lanta newspapers have a regular
scale-and a stiff one, at that-of
rates under which the announce
ments of state candidates, and
practically all other matter prof
fered by the candidates and their
friends, are charged, A column of
reading matter is question of so
many dollars and cents. Sentiment
doesn't count.
"And we insist that this is right
and proper. We also insist that
what is right at the business end
of metropolitan newspaper is
equally right in the business office
of the country daily or weekly
