CThe following expression comes from

1906 and is rendered for ~publlcation):
Whereas, Rev. J. B. Boone has recent
ly rendered his resignation as general
manager of the Baptist Orphanage
located at Townsville, N. c., having
been officially connected Herewith for
about eight years and under whose
discreet management the usefulness of
ing care scores and hundreds of father
less children from all sections of our
State, in whose behalf-and through
the influence of Bro. Boone and the un-
measured worth of his DEVOTED wife a
growing interest has been awakened on
the part of large hearted individual
benefactors, regularly contributing
churches. associational bodies and Sum-
day Schools including the glad-hearted
responses from this our Hendersonville-
Baptist s. S.
Resolved, therefore, that while we
deeply regret the retirement of Manag
er Boone and the loss of Mrs. Boone's
motherly devotion to the welfare of the
little ones, Ia bereavement indeed in
this Orphanage home circle it is the
cherished hope and earnest prayer of
the officers and members of this Sun
day School that these years of c%onsecrat
ed service now embalmed in the sweet
memories of the young lives blessed by.
such kindly supervision, may be crown
ed with the rewards awaiting faithful
service, wheresoever performed in Jesus
name. j. WILLIAMS, Supt.

A republican congressman may hon

the nerve 10 be independent when he gets
TO Washington. The atmosphere OF
Washington Is surcharged with machine
politics. In the house Of representatives
three men rule the republican machine
and the balance obey. Speaker Cannon.

or. Of Ohio, the majority Of the commit
tee on rules, dictate legislation. No

cred without the speaker is first seen

to public bills. such as tariff, trust or

member should be bold enough to intro
duce a bill that would reform present
abuses, the committee to whom It is re-
ierred would never report il. unless the
triumvirata above named. favor It's
consideration.
This machine. through which all leg
.slation must pass. resents any show OF
independence in a republican member
and shows him but slight consideration

and he soon finds all the avenues OF leg
