the law should be promptly reported to
him by our members, but the greatest
caution should be exercised against
reporting either trivial or technical
cases, Or cases that have their origin
in spite or prejudice. The commits
sioner can be relied upon to do his du-

to aid in the proper enforcement of the
law rather than make the duties Incl

are any weaknesses in the law that
need correction, a faithful and conser-
vative policy Of enforcement will soon
bring them to light.

Des Molnes Timers Strike.

''The strike of the Des Moines Tin
ners for an increase Of wages and be-
ginning June 1, is still on. Seven
firms have up to this time signed an
agreement. A committee from the
Business Mems association has been
very busy trying to induce and in
several cases attempted to intimidate
firms having signed into breaking
men in their employ. In one case
threats were made that all contractors
of the city would be got to withhold
business relations with the firm unless
they did as demanded. So far they
have accomplished nothing and the
chances of the men winning sub
stantial victory are first class.

MONEY TO KEEP OUT OF FIGnT.
Wants Nardaman and Williams To Wage Battle On Their Own
 Merits.

Jackson, Miss. Nov. 27.-Upon reli- able authority it may stated that Unit ed States Senator H. D. Money will not take sides in the fight between Gov. Fardaman and Congressman John Sharp Williams for the seat in the senate now held by him, and has no preference whatever in the set tlemen of the contest
 Senator Money, it is said, desires the two aspirants to wage the battle strictly on their merits, and he will not endeavOr to influence anybody S vote in the primaries next year. This meets with the approval of both fac tions. The friends of Williams and Vardaman will be content to allow Senator Money to remain a nom -com- blatant.
 Last week Congressman Williams was the guest of Senator Money at his home on the gulf coast. Gov Earda- man is a frequent visitor in the Money household. Williams and Var daman are both related by blood kin ship to the senior senator, and he has always held both in high regard

DR.. a. Andrews, Arlington Roush and
Wade Z. kilmer, left here last Sunday
morning in his big auto touring car for
Philadelphia. The party went as far
as Chambersburg where they had a
break down, which detained them
about hours and though it was rain :
ing steadily and the journey was un-
pleasant it was continued to Carlisle.
There the machine was abandoned, the
gentlemen took the train, went to
Philadelphia, spent day and return
ed to Carlisle. They then went by au-
to to Gettysburg, toured the battle
field and came home on Wednesday
evening. They expressed them selves
as having had pleasant trip.

Des Moiaes, May "a. "A fter separa-
ton of SO years the Presbyterian church
in the United States Of America, some
times referred to AS the Northern
church, and the Cumberland branch
were formally reunited today Amid
great rejoicing the announcement was
made in both general assemblies. The
Cumberlanders. in session at Decatur,
forthwith adjourned, terminating their
existence as separate church. The
Southern Presbyterians st:ll mainsais
their entity.
The resolution for union was adopt
ed by the Cumberlanders yesterday. 1t
came up in the Des MONIES assem- bly,
this morning, and the most intensely
dramatic scene Of the long struggle for
unity was enacted.
Moderator Hunter called for the af-
firmatiye vote on adoption OF the reso-
luton AZ a man, IL seemed, the COM
missioners rose. stamping and cheer
ing.
AS they took their seats the negative
vote was called for A laugh went
around, for II was believed the request
WAS mere formality. To the astonirh-
ment Of the assembly, tive commits
sioners arose. Pandemonium broke
loose and it was feared for an instant
that indgnily would be offered the
lonely meu who opposed the union.
They were Dr. William Laurie, OF
Beilefontaine, Pa and the Rev Roger
+. Cressey, of Jacksonville, I'll.
Dr. Laurie is stalwart Seotchmas
and his personality dominated the
convention, He said, as did his one
supporter, that it was question for
his conscience, and against cries to
make the vote unanimous he insisted
that the two negatives be recorded.
! The proposed federation OF tire evan
gelicali OF the country fer ch al.
table and humane work was approved
by the General Assembly, with CLAUSE
excluding the Unitarians by the de-
| blaratipn that all churches which be.
lieys in the "divinep Lord and Savior
should unite in the work.
/ Tho afternoon session Of the Assem-
bly, was devoted to celebration of the
two hundreth anniversary of the
Church, its first presbytery having
been organized in "Old Buttonwocd,
the home of the first Presbyterian
church, in Philadelphia, in 1905.
