Ministers OF Northwest Kansas Con-
ference Passed Resolutions
SaIinas Kan, March S1-The FOL
lowing resolutions were passed by the
northwest Kansas conference Of the
Methodist Episcopal church
Resolved That we, the members OF
the northwest Kansas conference OF
the Methodist Episcopal church, In

1907. representing 10000 Methodists
in a territory comprising twenty-sfx
counties in northwest Kansas. wish to
place ourselves on record denouncing
in the most uncompromising terms the
action Of q majority OF the state sen
ate IN voting against the bills for Sab
bath. Observance, prohibiting gambling
and the enforcement OF the prohfbi-
ton law, violating the pledges made
TO the people hOnOEing them with
their votes. For bread the people
have been given a stone, for fish. a
serpent; for an egg, a scorpion has
been their portion"
Resolved further, That we should
do all within our power to defeat all
such men from further continuance
in Office, thereby showing our con-
tempt for them
Resolved. That we greatly appre-
ciate the noble, manly stand taken by
Senators Quincy, Young and others
constituting the minority, who respect
ed their obligations by voting square
" on the bills for Sabbath obser-
vance prohibiting gambling, the en-
fOrcement Of the prohibition law and
all other questions coming before the
senate To all such men we pledge
our fidelity and support"

unmindful Of the necessity Of being
at St Louis as promptly as possible.
On the night Of December 81 the peO-
pie who had assembled at BrOwnville
in anticipation Of the putting into Op-
Grafton Of the new law were having a
dance James Bedford, the assistant
register, was in charge OF the land
Office.
Young Freeman sought him and
asked that he be allowed to make his
fling Immediately after midnight so
he could set out for St Louis. The
other prospective entrymen agreed
that under the circumstances they
would step aside and waive their
rights to make entries until the fol-
lowing day if the Offise was opened
long enough for Freeman's purpose
The preliminary papers were made
out and promptly after the stroke Of

A Free Homes Speech.
In 1897 Galusha A. Grow made a
speech in congress on ''Rightful Own
ership Of the Soil" in which he made
reference to Freeman and homestead
No. 1.
"On the 3Oth of March, 1852" said
ne, my first speech as a member Of
congress was made in the old hall Of
the house Of representatives on Mans
Right to the Soil From that time
forth, in season and out Of season, the
policy Of free homes for free men was
kept constantly before congress, un-
til the 10th day Of May, 1852, when
it became the law OF the land by the
signature Of the unIettered child Of
the prairies, Abraham Lincoln, after
I had signed the enrolled bill as speak
er Of the house.
There are two interesting incidents
connected with the final passage Of
the original homestead bill. First, it
took effect upon the day Of LincOIn's
emancipation, proclamation; second,
the first settler under the homestead
bill, which provided free homes for
free men, was named Freeman, Dan
iel Freeman, Gage county, Neb. At
a little past midnight on January 1,
1863, he made his entry in the land
office at Brownsville His entry is No.
1, his proof Of residence is No. 1, his
patent is No I, recorded on page 1,
book 1, Of the land Office Of the Unit
ed States The first settler under this
law was q Freeman, and I trust the
last OF its benefciaries in the long
coming years Of the future will be a

When the banks ship gold across

Yes, sir. If 100000 in gold coin
