: The whole discourse was punctuated
and accentuated with incidents full of
pathos out of the speakers own observ
alton
One man remarked, when he got out
side: Il lost consciousness of every
body and everything around me. The
roof might have come down and | could
not have taken my eyes from the speak
er.''
DR.. Slough spoke for nearly one and
one half hours, and even then the audi
ence was loath to leave. 1t had seemed
but a moment since he began. 1t was Il
thrilling and tremendous discourse 1t is
too bad that every parent in the city
could not hear it. 1t must have far
reaching results.
Tomorrow night we shall have to car
ry lii hundred or more chairs to ac-
commodate the people who will throng
into the Baptist church If you are
going to the service in the Second dis
trist you had better go early.
Mr.. Bemus' voice is like the call of a
silver trumpet to prayer. His beau
tiful solos are listened to with rapt at
tention. The piano, the cornet, the
chorister, the chorus, the congregation,
seem welded into one living harmonious
inspired means of making melody unto
the Lord. There is music in every heart.
There is 10Y and interest and fellow
ship and expectancy in the very atmos-
phere of every service.

Protecting Travelling Men.

Travelling men i'm Minnesota are to
ask the next legislature for the pas
sage of bill to provide better protee-
ton for guests in hotels of this state,
especially in the smaller towns. The
travelling men have just cause for COM
plant. Some of the hotels are fierce
and offer no satisfactory accommoda-
tions to the travelling public. The pres
ent law, which was passed in the leg
islature at its last session, did not be-
come effective in the form in which it
was introduced by the commercial tray
elers. 1t was framed by the st. Paul
organization of travelling men, and it
is said, would have brought the desired
reforms had it not been hacked beyond
recognition by legislators who were in
fluenced by hotel-keepers in their dis
tricts. For example, it is asserted, the
fees for the chief Inspector are so small
that he cannot hire deputies; even can
not make a fair living through them
himself, and in consequence is unable to
cover the state thoroughly in the pur
suance of his duties. The proposed bill
will provide that salary be paid to
the chief inspector and his deputies
from a fund to be raised by the collec
ton of inspection fees from the hotels.
The travelling men declare that, al
though they pay $500 Or $3.50 day at
country hotels, they are obliged to put
up with poor food prepared in unsani-
tary kitchens; are denied modern i'm
provements that in the cities are re-
garded no longer as luxuries but as nee
essities, and sleep in rooms, often on
the third story, entirely without means
of exit by iron fire escapes, or even
ropes, in case of fire. Nearly every no.
tel fire in country towns they maintain,
brings death to one or more travel
ing men. They demand that these con-
ditions be remedied by an effective
statute. The present law is not meet
ing the expectations of the travelling
men, and the legislature should enact
one that will. The public is entitled
to protection and good hotel accommo-
dations when it pays the price.

of the fire swept city, at a cost perhaps
40 per cent lower than they are com
PEELED to pay on account of excessive
duties; and when they are informed
that the American manufacturers who
exact from them an extra 40 per cent
are able, as shown by their sales in
Europe, to make a fair profit without
it ON every dollar of actual investment
then there is likely to be some very
lively questioning of congress as to the
why's and wherefores of the stand pat
policy of that body"
