Preachers Meeting

During the session of the Methodist
Preachers Association the Rev. Mr..
Wilson of Portland, Or, was presented
and he told of the enthusiasm that nre
vailed In Methodism in that CITY. He
stated that there were twenty Methodist
churches in that city and suburbs. that
all were prospering, attracting a great
deal of attention and increasing each
congregation. He said that funds for
the church were contributed liberally
and that $4,000 had been raised In a
short period for the university.
The paper read by Rev. j. E. Souires
of the Centenary M E. Church (South)
along the lines of aggressive evangeli-
zation in this city was received with
much attention and at the close the
speaker was given unanimous vote OF
thanks He cited as an instance of ag-
gressive evangelization the city OF
Stockton, which recently closed I'D sa
looms, and added that if an aggressive
movement were started in this citv
much could be done toward clear
ing away the evils that exist He said
that ii required energetic work, not by
any one denomination, but by all de-
nominations working side by side for
the publication of the city on moral
lines. He called attention to the good
that was done in Chicago in this mat
ter when eleven prayer tents were
opened at one time and prayers offered
for months. He also called attention

Jewish Creed

The feast of Purim will be on Thurs
day next A Jewish paper has the fol-
lowing concerning the festival:
I'VE hail the occurrence of the feast
of Esther with glad and joyful hearts.
animated not only by the thoughts
which the eventfu1 history commence
rated by the holiday recalls. but also
by the sentiments appropriate to the
period of the spring reawakening of ma
ture, in most latitudes, after the long
and dreary winter. OF course, such a
jolly festival is generally welcomed by
most everybody, since it is "a time of
rejoicing which lacks the sober and
somber features of many of our holi-
days The fall of Haman should ami
mate us not so much with vengeful
feelings as with the thought of the
emptiness of worldly greatness when
not accompanied by the better quail
ties; while the trials and triumph of
Mordecai should make US realize that a
noble character sometimes receives his
reward on this earth. The rescue of
the Jewish people, too, cannot fail to
make us feel that they were preserved
then and since for some high purpose
by providential interposition."
Rabbi Wise, late of Portland, Or,
and well known in California, is still
working in behalf of a free synagogue
in New York City The Boston Tran
scripts letter from that city says of
him:
I'm starting his new and independent
work in New York, DIR. Wise has taken
a position that according to leading
Jews, is in advance of any stand that
has yet been made even by the more
liberal of Jewish rabbis. He openly ad :
vocates for instance, the abandonment
of Saturday as the Sabbath of the Jews,
in favor of Sunday, saying: I say with
sorrow that the Jewish Sabbath in the
land is dead. Because we cannot have
the seventh-day Sabbath, shall we have
no Sabbath? Even although the ear
| liest observance of the first-day Sab
| bath was anti-Jewish in character
shall we forever refrain from meeting
| for worship on that day which in this
! land and in all European lands is the
| legal day of rest? 1t is the duty of the
| synagogue to proclaim the message of
| the Jew to men on the one day in the
week which it Is possible to reach them
| If we must sacrifice the form of the
Sabbath, we will conserve it's sub
| stance
Is DIR. Wise says that his Free Syna-
| gogue' is to be supported by voluntary
contributions only, and that the small
contributor and the large one will be
| equal, and he inveighs against what he
claims to be the present order in
churches and synagogues of reseryine
the best places for the largest contrib
utors. Leading Jews of all cities are
watching the movement of the popula,
rabbi with the deepest interest"

Rev. Mr.. Meserve of Plymouth Church
says that the union worship of the
First Church with Plymouth for many
months after the fire did his church
much good, and that after the First
Church congregation went back to Its
own edifice the falling on In attend
ance was only sixty-three less than on

At a recent meeting of the Associa-
| ton of Ministers of this city and vicin-
| ity. Arthur Arlett of Plymouth Church
read a paper on The Workingman."
He took the stand that there was neces-
sity for organization and the closed
! shop He expressed the opinion that
both capital and labor were to blame
for existing conditions in the indus
| trial world and suggested that the
| ministers urge those members of their
/ congregations who were members of
/ unions to attend such meetings to the
end that their influence would be for
the best action.

! George Robertson of Mentone, Los An

agency for Mi-o-na stomach tablets.
and in order to induce people suffering
with weak stomach or Indigestion to
use the remedy, offers to supply it with

SENATOR FOR NEBRASKA, TOO

Editor Joe Lyle Of the Sundance
Monitor was in Cheyenne attending
court last week. On his way down he
observed many things OF interest and
what he saw formed the subject of an
interesting letter to his paper. At Sid,
ney he noted many improvements and
found the people exceedingly friendly
and filed with gratitude toward the
vests greatest senator. Mr.. Lyle
says:
Sidney, Neb., Nov. 1S.-This histor-
ic little prairie town shows evidence
of prosperity. Land values are soaring
skyward and other properties are forg,
ing to the front in a way that will make
Sidney one of the really important
points of western Nebraska. Activity
in land matters this seaso has sur
passed all previous records. Interested
parties are LOUD in their praise of Sen,
ator Warren of Wyoming, who has ex,
erted potent influence in the lettering
of conditions for the homesteader at
times when government inspectors rec
commended the abolition Of certain west,
ern land offices. The senator is truly
western, and feels that Nebraska comes
within his scope of good work for the
west"
