which Is not very pleasing to the ear,
must be stopped or the officers wilt
be compelled by public sentiment to
close more saloons, The open gambt
ling charged by MIR. Coeoran to exis-
in other saloons ought to be sup
pressed. We do not believe a pro-
hibition town possible nor desirable
for many reasons, chief of which is
the fact that prohibition does not
prohibit and puts the business into
the hands of disreputable people who
find means of evading the law. But
there has evidently been too much
disorder and drunkenness in the town
the past few months and II the officers
do not put stop to it the people
will find out the reason why. Mar
shall McGovern will have the support
Of the people in his efforts to secure
better order. The town is too wide
open.
The agitation of conditions has also
brought up the question Of license.
There are thirteen saloons in town,
or one for every 500 Of population.
These saloons pay license Of 800
year, or s25 each quarter. We
believe the license should be made
payable annually instead Of quarterly
and there are many who think the
conditions could be improved by rails
ing the license to at least double the
amount now paid. We believe that
high license and an enforcement Of
the law is the best and only successful
means Of regulating the liquor traffic.
1t puts the business into the hands of
responsible persons and legally eIimi-
mates the cheap joints.

TOO WIDE oPF~.

The action Of the board Of trustees
at Tuesday evenings session. In re-.
tusing to grant a license to James
Cocoran for thsONI saloon, has drawn
public attention to the fact that

Previous to Tuesdays election the
editors Of the Journal, or at least one
Of them, attempted to pledge the re-
publican candidates in advance to
give them all public patronage that
coald be thrown their way as mat
ter Of right and duty which they owed
to the paper as a party organ and for
its support. We know Of one or two
Of the candidates on the republican
ticket who were approached and re-
fused to pledge themselves, which
may account for the lack OF enthusi
asm so conspicuous in the last issue
OF the Journal. The week previous
1t was a rank partisan organ. 1t
will now do some more trimming.

rHE RESULT.

What does the result of Tuesday Is
municipal election meang To the
Press it looks as though two things
were settled, one OF these being the
fact that people do not approve Of the
injection Of political party politics
into town affairs, even though the
republican club did SO decide. Re
publicans and democrats alike Joined
In voting against the-attempt to make
our town elections political, and it
will not be tried soon again. The
people want the business Of the town
conducted on plane clear of politi
cal pulls and political debts TO be
paid at their expense.
The second question decided by
the result was the fact that the people
do not want ordinances railroadsd
through at one meeting before they
have been given time to see what is
being done, and an opportunity TO
protest If they do not consider the
measure what it should be. The peo-
pie are the source OF all power in our
form OF government and will ALWAYS
oppose efforts to deprive them Of the
rights to be heard whether it is in a
municipal council, a legislature or
congress. When men think they
have become superior to, and ignore
the laws under which the public af
fairs are managed, retribution is sure
to overtake them. This was uudeni.
ably the case in Tuesdays election,
and no power on earth could have
changed the result. "CnIer God

ually rule right, too, and want an
opportunity to be heard, then thew
are better satisfied.
The newly elected memb ers Of the
board are all we'll known citizens. in
every way competent to ill the
offices, and some Of them have had a
number Of years experience in sim
liar positions. That they will ad-
minister the affairs Of the town hon
estly, fearlessly and to the best Of
their ability, We have no doubt
Their election was a vote of conf.
dence which we feel will not be
abused. We look for a conservative.

Tact that the position Is a irving one

building Up a State Normal.

The board of trustees of the Albion
state normal school is making great
provisions for the school year, be-
ginning next September. At the
meeting held in Albion March 80 and
81 It was decided that the new girls
dormitory should be built at once.
This will be beautiful structure 80
feet by 131 feet providing accOmmo-
dations for 9S young ladies. The
rooms are large, well ventilated and
well lighted. There will be an abund-
ance of bath rooms, toilet rooms,
laundry rooms, trunk rooms, etc. The
kitchen and dining room will be mod
els of convenience and elegance.
But perhaps the most important
thing which the board did was to pro-
vide for two new departments in the
school: the one for kindergarten
training. the other for manual train
ing. The best of Instructions will be
secured for each. The training de-
partment. which was instituted in
January has proven so successful that
the board felt Justified in making
further provision for the special
preparation of teachers. The state
normal school at Albion hopes to be
able in a short time to help supply
the demand for kindergarten and nor
NAL teachers which at present cannot
be satisfied.-Bolse Capital News.

PRESBYTERIAN FILIPINOS.
First Church In the Islands TO Become
Self-SuppOrting.

Self-Supporting.
The first self-supporting Protestant
congregation in the Philippine is
lands is the Presbyterian church at
Iloilo, which has just voted to elect
church officers and to call a pastor.
The church was started in 1900 as
a mission by the Presbyterian board
OF foreign missions, and there has just
been completed for It neat chapel
building, costing about $500. the
gift of the First Presbyterian church
of Yonkers, N. Y.
There is also to be built at Iloilo a
hospital to cost $4,000, most of the
money coming from the United States
but a large part being contributed by
the residents of the islands. Another
phase of work in the Philippines Is
that among the Chinese, who are
spoken of as "the life of trade in the
islands,"
There are about 1000 Chinese in
Iloilo, and services have been con-
Quoted for them ever since the Pres
byterlan mission was started. Men,
bers of the Chinese congregation have
now subscribed sufficient money to
send one of their young men to Annoy
to study, so he may be equipped as
a preacher There is every indica-
ton that the Chinese church Will
soon also be self-supporting.

for only about $3.50 delivered. Oats.
which have been selling for 2 cents
