There was some animation at Fishtown
this morning. Fish were being landed
and cutters we're at work. Prices, how
ever, we're well maintained with no evil
dence of weakening. Shad and herring
are said to be gradually working their
way up the river into fresh water, and
some are being caught short distance
below this city. Fine rock fish, black
bass and perch are among the receipts.

The Interior:

TIC Int6T1OT:
1t is good to see that the churches.
both white and colored led most infuen-
TALLY in calming down the city of At
lanta after the frightful mob outbreak
there. Christian cOmmon-sense and
brotherly love proved stronger than the
passions of race hate. even when the fur
mace was heated sevenfold. Negro min
listers told the black people that honor
is the only safety of their race. and white
ministers told the white citizens that a
strong people whose strength is not used
to protect and uplift the weaker, are most
disgraceful sinners. They seem to have
produced repentance on both sides and
much better feeling. It has been one
notable occasion when the gospel GER
tainly had a message for the times.

HerGId and PresbNtcr:


A pastor not long ago was sorrowing
over the fact that some of his people had
been led astray into an acceptance OF the
fantasies of Mary Eddy, and that hey
were lost to the church and the cause Of
evangelical religion. On inquiry it de-
veloped that these people had not been
readers of a religious PAPER and were 10,
we'll indoctIinated or ve.y intelligent in
matters Of Christian faith. 50. when tiay
were approached by proselyters an. in
duced to read some little things they
were led away with comparative ease.
Pastors would be preserved from loss ald
chagrin, and would be made to apUear
in better light as faithful shepherds. if
they took proper precautions to keen
their people from being stolen from them
by the sophistries and seductions Of false
leaders. The pastors who do not take
care as to what their people are reading
are especially apt to have some sorrowful
surprises

Looking over DR.. Johnsons Life of
DIR. Palmer when it came last Saturday
our eye was attracted by a note from
Mrs. Jefferson Davis, of coincidence and
sympathy, to Mrs. Caldwell after the
death of her father, DR.. Palmer. In
this note is the following passage:
About year before my husband
died he became very restless and an
nounced his intention to go to New Or
leans We had several guests In tho
house and [ suggested his waiting until
Monday, but he said decidedly, I want
TO go to-day He came back on Mon

a day or two he said, L went to COM

DR.. Palmer would accept an Episcopa-

quieted him greatly and he went to DR..

Another Thanksgiving Day has come.
Every day, to a grateful heart, is a day
OF thanksgiving. But the movement of
our devotions gathers impetus from fell
lowship and the outpouring of gratitude
gathers volume as the thought, the rev.
erence, the alteration, the giving of
thanks of a multitude go up to the
heights where Sovereignty is enthroned,
the Dispenser of all bounty, the gra-
cious Giver of every blessing. Thanks
giving Day is not decreed by ecclesiasti-
cal or civil authority. If it were, it's
value would be impaired. 1t is expe-
dent that some representative of the
people should invite those who recog-
nize the loving kindness of our God to
render concerted homage to Him in
praise and thanksgiving. The chief ex-
ecutive of State or nation is such a per-
son, and to his proclamation the people
give their sanction.
If 1t be a day in which God IS praised
for His amazing goodness, rather than
one in which man is gloriied for his
political prowess, his wealth, or his wis
dom, it will be day we'll spent.

The Martinsburg Statesman, COM
menting on the plan of the Baptists OF
Virginia to establish a Woman's College,
and a campaign for half a million dol
lars for this object, says:
"The Presbyterian Church has from
the earliest days of the Republic stood
for education, but during recent years
the Southern Church is falling behind
in the matter of education. 1t especially
needs a real high class Woman's Col
lege and if the Church does not bestir
itself the Methodists and Baptists will
soon be a long way in the lead"
Nevertheless, Mr.. Statesman, the
Presbyterians are educating their daugh-
tiers. In the two Virginias the Presby-
terians have a number Of Summaries for
young ladies which are not excelled in
all the country, for all the real worth of
education and training given to their
pupils. We believe that more of the
same kind are needed in various sec
lions. And some day we may have

THE OUTLOOK is BRIGHT.

AS state headquarters is the hot
bed and storm center Of the Prohibi
tion party's onslaught upon the saloon,
so also is it blessed with the sunshine
radiating from the entire field of &C.
tivity. We hear discouraging news
Oh, yes! Some workers are indiffer-
ent, some are careless, some are slow
and some are lazy. Some splendid
opportunities are allowed to let slip
and some things are done poorly or
left undOne. Nevertheless the en-
cOuraging reports which began to ar
rive at the opening of this campaign
have grown better and better to this
hour.
The people are being reached an
most favOrably impressed. Their
hearts are being stirred with hatred
of the saloon and inspired with de-
termination to do something earnest
and practicable for it's overthrow.
They are thrilled with the hope of
accomplishing splendid results on
November 9Th of this very year Of
grace 1906. The "Old Guard" are re-
naming firm. New recruits are NOV
ing to our aid and great numbers of
bright young people inspired with the
idea of making the world better for
their having lived in it are consecrat-
ing their splendid talents to this sa-
cred cause. To say that we shall win
is not sufficient. We are winning and
1906 will be remembered as marking
an epoch in the history of the prohibi-
ton movement in Minnesota.

TO RULE THE SENATE.

1t was by the (dis)grace of Lieut..
Gov. Jones that the paid attorney of
the Hamm Brewing Co. was made
chairman of the Senate Temperance
Committee at the last session of the
legislature. This shame would not
rest upon our state had the citizens
made j. F. Heiberg Lieut.. Gov. two
years ago. Nor will it occur in the
next two years if Prof. Lokensgaard
is in the chair of the Senate. He will
be as good-natured as the best-natured
senator and as firm as the firmest.
We would just like to be present if
the Senate should try to play horse
with him. The qualities which have
made him a successful instructor and
an inspiring example to the great num-
bers OF young people who have gone
out from his institution to bless the
world would come into play in that
position. Every citizen of Minnesota
whose cheeks burn whenever he
thinks of the disgrace to which we
have alluded above should call the
attention of his neighbors to the mat
ter and ask them to vote their right
eous protest against such an outrage
by casting their ballot for Olaf o.
Lokensgaard for Lieut.. Gov.

VOTE FOR DORSETT!

The fight of the Prohibition party
in this campaign is for. seats in the
legislature. The law now specifically
authorizes the most damnable curse
that afflicts society. We purpose to
change all this" But we should also
endeavor to elect Chas. w. Dorsett
governor this year. If we should not
succeed in either attempt, our efforts
will be in the right direction and every
vote cast for man who will properly
represent us in either the legislative or
executive branch of government will
be the seed Of the harvest of votes
which will yet overwhelm the saloon.
Should Mr.. Dorsett be elected gov
ernor, his state papers would be in
fused with the spirit of the latter-day
movement for purer and better
things in government. He is a man
OF high ideals and also a man who
brings things to pass. His speeches
from the Tally-Ho in a large number
OF communities of our state have Civ
en- multitude of men a new and bet
ter idea of what a man in high Of
fetal position should be- We need
statesmen, not mere politicians, for
such positions. We will have them
when the people demand it, when they
vote for men of high character who
stand for noble principles and benef
icent legislation. Chas. w. Dorsett
is one OF Gods noblemen
