sented in their organization. They
continue in Office and when one of
their number, for my reason, is
forced to retire they select his sue,
cessor. They exercise the power of
II self-perpetuating body and that in
direct violation of the law of the
church to which they belong.
'Socoud. They shelve the men
who, for any reason, do not sympa-
thize with and approve their methods
and promote those who stand by
them and support each other in do
ing it,"
The rest of the editorial gives
other specifications, five in all, but
the two quoted above are those upon
which the accusation of lying and
slander is based. One of Mr..
Creighton's contentious is that the
methods of securing the presiding
elders salaries is unfair and wrong.
In his editorial already quoted he
says:
"Third. They agree upon method
of forcing up their salaries in viola
tion of the law of the church."
1t has not been the custom to pay
the presiding elders fixed salaries.
Each presiding elder receives Is
per cent of the total amount raised
by the churches in his district for
salaries of pastors. Under this plan,
when church raises the salary of
its pastor it raises the salary of the
presiding elder also.
AT the last session of the confer
ence resolution was passed recon-
mending that the district stewards
fix the salaries of presiding elders at
stated sums and abandon the per-
centage plan. But the resolution of
conference does not have the force
of law and the boards of district
stewards are not bound thereby.
The influence of presiding elders in
the district boards is very strong,
and unless they advocate the pro.
posed change it is claimed that the
change is not likely to be put into
effect. There are twelve districts
in this conference aud each one of
the presiding elders is man of
strong personality and influence.
When.the committee was appointed
to investigate the charges at the last
session of the conference at Spartan
burg Mr.. Creighton was suspended
from the conference pending the de-
termination of the case. He has,
however, continued to edit and pub
lish his paper, the Christian Appeal,
at Greenwood, and it is said the
paper has now about 5000 subscrib-

To Run Government.

Washington, Dec. 3.--The estimates of
the appropriations required to run the
government for the fiscal year ending
June 80, 1905, were transmitted to Con-
gress to-day. They reach grand total
of $6S9,028,543. The estimate for the
present fiscal year amounted to S622,-
723, ,161, showing an apparent increase of
$68,000,OOO. The actual appropriations
for the present year, including deficien-
cies and miscellaneous, which were not
estimated for, were, however, $70l ,551, :
566, or about S1l 100000 more than the
secretary of tho treasury thinks will be
necessary for the next year.

Got The Worst Of Il.

1t is hard to beat a beat or an
insurance company. A Higgins
willie, Missouri, young man
bought two thousand fine cigars,
had them insured for their full
value, then smoked them and
demanded the insurance, claim
ing they had been destroyed by
fire. The case was taken to
court and the judge decided in
favor of the young man. The
insurance company then had the
young man arrested for arson,
setting fire to his own property,
and the same judge fined him
double the amount Of the insur-
ance and sentenced him to three
months in Jail.

Marriage Licenses.

Here it is the 18th day of
September and only five marriage
licenses issued this month, one
on the 3rd, then none till the 18th
and three yesterday. There was
a slight frost last night, however,
and that may have tendency to
cause the love-lorn SWANS to call
on Judge Humphrey for the
necessary credentials to unite for
better or for worse and all time
unless the divorce court
digs in.

Success in such an addre SIS
under the circumstances was
impossible in any cause. But
Mr.. Bryan's treatment of the
issues lacked thoroughness. 1t
was suggestion of some things
which it maybe desirable to do,
not at all a statesmanlike de-
claration of what these things
are and by what consisten mt policy
and practical methods they are
to be achieved. There was one
feature in the reception of Mr..
Bryan in New York which was
not failure, however, and that
was Mr.. Bryan's presence.

1t has been we'll said that the
ideal government = for this
country especially-is by the
people, of the people and for the
people. But have you noticed
how hypocritical some of the
alleged leaders are? They say
they want the people to govern,
but if everything does not go
their way, how many excuses
they find to try and show that it
is not the people who have
spoken. 1t is hard to please
agitators unless you allow them
to have their own way in every
thing, and then the people-the
common people-find that their
will is thwarted-if the agitators
are satisfied.

MIR. Bryan is sure to be kept
busy if he does as he promises
and will discuss that subject
later" He has promised this in
more than dozen cases, but it is
general believed he has promised
thusly in order to evade the
questions and tumble into an
other Jackpot like the one in
New York when he said: 81

1t is becoming very evident
that Bryan failed to satisfy even
the leaders of the democratic

they are quietly trying to agree

may be selected by the republic
cans.
