THE MANSION
Commission Say They
are Working on
the Matter

A delegation consisting ol James
u. Davis, Aif Chart ana r. X. Col
cord met with the board of Capitol
Commissioners Saturday afternoon to
discuss the governors mansion ques-
ton and to ascertain if possible
whether the board had any intention
Of erecting the same.
The board stated 70 the delegation
that as yet they had not accepted
any bids owing TO a reported com
binatiOn among the contractors who
made ulds Tor the erection OF the
same. They further stated that il
was their version of the matter that
the 100000 appropriated by the last
legislature for the purpose intended
mansion after the same had been
constructed. The Law as passed
uy the last legislature states that
the appropriation was to DC used for
.ne "erecins and constructing at C4r-
son City, Ormsby County, Nevada a
governors mansion to be used as
the the home of the Chief Executive.
The commissioners stated to the
delegation that it was the intention Of
he board To erect the mansion and
that the wax OF construction would
be commenced as soon as the arrange
ments Tor the same could be made.
They further stated that they had
complied with the law and that the
statement that The time had lapsed
and that the mansion could not now
be constructed was in error. Provision
was made in the bill that ork on the
structure was to begin in ninety days
after the bill became law, but the
board claims that under the last
phrase OF the section which reads
"sttikes. unavoidable delays and acts
Of God accepted that they are pro-
t.cted as the delay so far in the be-
ginning OF construction work on the
building were unavoidable.
1t is to be hoped that the board
will get busy and put the matter
through as they promised the visiting
delegation that they would do at
the meeting on Saturday.

Methodist Episcopal Church, II a.
N. The One-Talanted Man:
The best people are not always
those who talk about themselves most
There are many who talk much and
do little else than talk, then, there
are others who are doing something
worthy, and yet, because Of modesty
never talk Of their achievements and
SO are never heard Of Then. there
are others, in whom this modesty
goes so far as to become a self-hatred
and this self-hatred causes one to
despise his own abilities, and so he
attempts nothing for fear' Of failure
The One Talanted Man was one of
this latter type. And he is in the
world still. The world is full OF peo-
pie who plead that they have no abiI-
God has endowed them 60 unsued, for
fear, il they are put out 10 trade in
the worlds life, failure will result.
There are two remedies for this
self-hatred, First-The privilege OF
loving our fellow men. and working
for their good, and: SecOnd-The priv
ilege of understanding Gods plans
and purposes in our lives, and OF
knowing that God, in his wisdom, has
given us all the equipment necessary
for the working out OF his purposes.
But men say they have 40 power
Of living up to their privilege OF un-
derstanding Gods purposes. This We
cannot believe; for the Word OF God
teaches that it is the privilege Of all,
and a great many who have the ex-
periencr OF knowing something OF
what God wishes them TO be. Every
man may have this revelation if he
will. Then Christ came to bring this
revelation and his life shows US
what he ought to be. The Christ
came too, to teach US the Universal
brotherhood OF man, and his brother
hood with US, an dean it be that any
Brother OF His is incapable OF the
spiritual life?

MORE ABOUT THE PARCELS
POST.

POST.
By those who are opposed to the
establishment of the parcels post the
principal objection advanced Is that
it would multiply the business of the
mail-order houses in the great cities,
to the detriment Of the local trade
in the smaller towns. This is an as
sumption not likely to be verified by
the facts.
We're it practicable to send five
or ten pound package through the
mails for nominal sum, would all
such packages be ordered from New
York or Chicago by an Orangeburg
purchaser? asks the Charleston News
and Courier, or would the result of
the new system be greater efforts on
the part of merchants in Charleston
and Columbia to meet the demands
of mail customers? If the latter
would be the event, it seems equally
probable that merchants in Orange
burg would adapt themselves to the
new conditions by making special eff
fort to sell goods by mail within
radius of thirty or forty miles, as
would the merchants of every town
from which rural delivery routes radi-
ate.
The expansion Of the rural delivery
system completely changes the aspect
that the parcels post scheme wore a
few years ago. Then the average ru-
raj community In the South received
its mail not more than three times
the week, but now there are compara-
lively few communities that have not
at least one daily mail. Were the de-
livery of larger parcels by these car
riers cheap it would be natural to
expect that thousands of country peo-
pie would do much Of their shopping
by mail and not take day from their
farm work to visit the court house
town.
n mall order business TO be sue
cessful does not require to be domes-
ticated in large city. Any reader
of the advertising pages of the maga-
tines will observe that hundreds of
articles are manufactured in and dis
trlbuted from towns in the North and
Central West that one rarely hears
OF in any other way. The parcels
post system might result in the es-
tabishment by enterprising merchants
OF mail-order houses in the little
towns and to the rural inhabitants
there would be a saving of time as
we'll as of money by means Of them

true Tnere is duty on wheat, barley,

protection. This high tariff e4-
cludes our highly taxed manufac-

llal, from the markets OF the world,
although we have natural advantages
possessed by no other nation. Sen.
Vim. b. Allison.
Every advance toward free ex-
change of commodities is AN advance
In civilization. Every facility to a
free exchange cheapens commodities,
increases trade and production, and
promotes civilization. :. A few
years further experience will convince
the whole body Of our people that
system of national taxes which rests
the whole burden of taxation on con-
sumption, and not entirely on prop
erty or income, is intrinsically un-
just. John Sherman.
The longest road has a turn; the
darkest night is followed by dawn;
tides ebb and flow; spring follows
winter and periods of depression are
followed by times of revival. John
Sherman was facetiously y credited
with the unprecedented farm crops
of 1879 and the Dingley tariff has
been seriously credited with the time
ly showers and their products since
President McKinley's Inauguration.
Given the fertile fields of America,
her forest and mineral wealth, her
facilities for manufacture and trans
portation, the inventive genius Of her
people and above all their enterprise
and industry, and permanent stagna-
ton is impossible, however vicious
may be her system Of taxation.
1t is the fine art Of the railroad
monopoist to take just "all the tar
iff will bear" 1t will not do to de-
populate the farms by excessive
charges but leave the northwest farm
ers just enough to keep the Russian
immigrant, his wife and his children
pushing the plows, the drills and the
reapers. Under McKinley's tariff,
monopoly took too much and stagna-
ton followed. free trade they called
it; it was freedom to plunder without
restraint.) Under the Dingley tariff
they have learned to leave labor just
enough to continue its hopeful or
hopeless struggle.
When all else has reached the stage
of most profound slupber the cock
crows at the approach of dawn. When
our hands were empty, our farm
equipment worn out, merchants
shelves empty and factories empty
there arose the shout, "Ihe advance
agent of prosperity is about to take
the saddle" Merchants ordered
goods. Factories had to start. Men
were put to work; business revived,
and all this under the German tariff.
(No thanks, however, are due to Cor
man or the tariff.) When once in
motion our long felt needs urged on
the wheels of activity, which grew by
what it fed upon. All things, except
