RosEwArER FOR SENATOR

Edward Rosewater, editor of the Omaha Bee, is again candidate for United States senator. Nebraska could do worse than elect the little editor, and, to paraphrase an expression of the late Tom Reed ou an interesting occasion they very likely will do so. MT. Rose water has been too good newspaper man, he has hewed too closely to the line regardless of consequences to him self, to make 8 successful candidate for office. He Is much in the position which Harvey Scott, the able and fear less editor of the Oregonisu, recog- nized as his own when 1t was suggested 10 him once on 8 time that he run for governor. Mr. Scott said, in putting the suggestion aside, that he could not make the Oregonian and not make enemies, but he could prevent thoSe enemies from having the satisfaction of defeating him for office. MT. Rose water has been even more independent and fearless as a newspaper man than has MT. Scott, but he has not been so careful to prevent his enemies from having the pleasure of defeating him for office. They have done 1t several times and will probably do 1t again.
 However, MT. Rosewater's persist ence iu seeking a senatorship is a dis. play of quality of bravery and daring that has made him 8 very successful journalist,

Let us follow the Juneau plan and put it on 8 selfish basis for a minute,
 just for arguments sake. What is there in the history of the past to indicate that Skagway, or Ketchikan, or Doug las, or wrangell or Sitka, or any other location in Southeastern Alaska, outside
 of the town of Juneau itself, would profit more from having a citizen of Juneau for delegate to congress than though the delegate hailed from some other section of Alaska? We have done much for Juneau but what has Juneau ever done for Skagway except to knock the town? No, this sectional argument does not go. The issue in Alaska is self.go7erumeut. With a territorial organization, every section of the dis tric, will be represented in the gov erument and in a position to demand the recognition to which it is entitled.

The Juneau Dispatch says the polit- ical issue which concerns Alasksns most is the desire of those of each section of the District for representa- ton iu the lawmaking body.

How often do we hear it remarked; Its only a cold, and few days later learn that the man Is on his back with pneumonia. That is of such common occurrence that a cold, however slight, should not be disregsrded. Chamber laiu's Cough Remedy counteracts any tendency of a cold to result in pneu- monia, and has gained its great popular ity and extensive sale by its prompt cures of thts most common ailment. It always cures and is pleasant to take.

The best way to eliminate sectional ism from Alaskan politics will be to get a government in which all sections of the district shall be represented. h a territorial legislature there would be members from Nome, Fair banks, the Westward and Southeastern Alaska. The surest way to get this kind of 8 government is to seEd as our first delegate to congress a man who will ask for it as the paramount ques- ton.

MEETINGS OF SYNOD IN STANTON.

The meeting of the Synod of Virginia
in Staunton this week will be the four
teenth meeting in that place. In the
early years of the last century Staunton
was favorite place for the gathering
of the Synod. 1t met there in the fol-
lowing years: 1906, 1903, 1909, 1911, 1915,
1918, 1928, 1888, 1874, 1862, 1875 and 1890.
The meeting in 1862, forty-four years
ago was in the midst of the war between
the States, yet there were eighty-four
members present. No doubt there are
some in Staunton who remember the
meeting. DR.. James B. Ramsey preached
the opening sermon from Phil. 1: 81:
"For me to live is Christ" and Dr. VIM.

THE HAYsTACK CENTENNIAL.

On Wednesday, October 10th, the Cen
tennial Of American Foreign Missions
was celebrated at North Adams. Mass.
near Williamsport where the famous
prayer-meeting was held, which is re-
garded as the birthplace of American en-
deavor to evangelize the world The story
OF this meeting Is one which should do
more than inspire praiseworthy senti-
ments or awaken slumbering enthusiasm.
1t should be like bugle blast, summon.
ing to new era Of conquest in this day
of marvellous opportunity.
Five students of Williams College were
accustomed to resort to a quiet grove
and pray together for the salvation of
the heather. During one of these seasons
of prayer violent thunderstorm came
suddenly upon them and they sought
refuge under the overhanging edges of
a haystack. Here they talked of the one
theme that occupied their minds, and as
the difficulties Of sending the gospel to
the heather and the hope of evangeliz-
ing the world were discussed, one of
them, named Samuel Mills, used these
AONe1DlO WOIuS. we Cdu make our 1Qf1U-
ence felt before we die on the other side
of the globe! We can If we will" This
little meeting during the storm is now
regarded as the beginning of American
Foreign Missions, and the words of Mills
have many times been made effectual,
when rung out from the platform, in
stirring the hearts of great audiences to
enthusiasm for the conversion of the
world.
In 1854 President Mark Hopkins was
encouraged to send out an appeal for
funds to rear a monument to the mem
DRY of the men of the haystack.
and to the honor of the cause
which they represented. In his
appeal he said. "Shall patriotism and
genius have their monuments and con-
secrated grounds, and shall not religion?
Shall a love wider than that Of patriot
ism, a conservation nobler than genius,
have no memorialT Within a year the
funds were raised and a missionary jubi-

lee was held at the next college COM
mencement, that being the fiftieth ami
versary Of the prayer-meeting. At these
exercises David Dudley Field presided.
He said: 1--WE dedicate this park to the
memory of the founders of American
missions and to the missionary cause and
spirit"
President Hopkins in thanking the
donors of the memorial fund said: GAS
an investment for education it will be
worth more than it has cost. AS an out
pouring of affectionate regard for the
missionary work, as the solitary memo
rial on the face of the earth in honor Of
the highest form of self-sacrifice and he
roic effort, it's value and it's power can
not be estimated"
In 1867 the marble monument was COM
pleted and erected on the spot where the
haystack originally stood.
The centennial exercises were partici-
pated in by prominent men of the Church
at large. DR.. Edward Judson, of the
Baptist Church, spoke on "The Mission
airy Achievements of One Hundred Years."
DR.. Arthur J. Brown, of the Presbyterian
Board of Foreign Missions, on 1.-THE
Work of Missions During the Next One
Hundred Years." 1.-THE Appeal of the
Haystack to the Church of To-day" was
presented by DR.. H. E. Cobb, of the Re
formed Church. Greetings were read
from native converts in Africa, Turkey
India, Ceylon, China, Japan, Mexico and
Austria. Other addresses were made by
President King, of Oberlin College; John
R. Mott, of the Students Volunteer
Movement; Prof. Beach, of Yale Univer-
sity, and Rev. T. c. Richards, of War
rem, Mass.
On the monument are cut the words.
"The Field is the World" "The Birth
place of American Foreign Missions" and
the names of the five young men who
composed the prayer-meeting The like
ness of haystack is sculptured in bold
