|L|f ADDRESSES
THE CONFERENCE
PHILADELPHIA DIVINE TALKS
ON IMMIGRATION, INTEMPER-
ANCE, MORMONSM AND THE
NEGRO PROBLEM.

Rev. DR.. T. C. Ilif of Philadelphia,
was the speaker at the Methodist
conference last evening. His subject
was the Relation of Home Missions
and Church Extension to the Prob
lens and Safety of the Republic.
Energy and sincerity were very mani
fest in his delivery. Intrenching
patriotism, Methodism and Christian
ity throughout the entire land, was
stated to be the object of the board
of church extension.
The perils discussed were immi-
grafton, intemperance, mOrmOnism,
the negro and the relations of capital
and labor
Referring to the saloon influence
in politics, Dr. Ilif claimed that both
the republican and democratic par
ties are controlled by liquor interests,
and that the only way to down the
saloon is to vote the brave"
Speaking about mormonism, it was
claimed that the three Methodist
senators-Dolliver, Beverage and
Foraker-were responsible for CIV
Smoot his seat in the senate, and
that ''in so doing they stuck a dag
ger into every womans heart
Regarding the negro question, the
speaker said that the black mans
hope is the church bringing him a
Bible and a spelling book.
Likewise the church can help solve
the question of capital and labor by
the united forces of patriotism and
Christianity. The audience greatly
enjoyed the addresses and the en-
thusiasm finally resulted in semi
revival service.

BISHOP HUGHES LECTURES To-
NIGHT

1t is seldom that the people of We
natchee have the opportunity of en-
PERTAINING for an entire week a man
of worldwide fame and influence.
Bishop Hughes is one of the most
powerful of the giant intellects in the
great Methodist denomination. The
church tonight should and will be
crowded to the doors by those real
izing the rich treat in store for them.
The subject, "The Biography of n
Boy" is especially timely; just as
the public school is about to open

vocate OF New York made ne follow
ing comment:
Bishop Hughes is one of the
younger men. He had been in the
pastorate during all his public life,
spending eight years in the church
at Maiden, Mass, where he was Sc
lected as president of De Paw uni
versity. In the pastorate ne showed
himself a Chris dan teacher and
preacher and deeply endeared him.
self to all classes and conditions.
His reputation for sound doctrine and
sense of Gods presence and of the
dignity and responsibility of the
ministry followed him wherever he
went. His career as president of De
pauw university has given him oppor-
tCnities for, and even compelled him
to display great power of organiza-
ton and facility in the transaction OF
business. His reputation in Indiana
and the neighboring states is sIcn
that his fitness for the episcopaey has
been generally acclaimed

AMERICAN HUSBAND BEST IN
THE WORLD.

The American husband is the best
in the world, says the Rev. Charles
Aked, ID, in the November New
Idea Woman's Magazine. He thinks
more of his wife, makes more of his
wife, gives more to his wife, does
band the world has ever known.
Whether he has the best wife in the
world - but that is another story.
Certainly the American woman has
the most favored lot which has yet
fallen to a human being. She has
more to make her happy-in her own
phrase, to give her "a good ,iIne, "
than any other creature on the face
of the earth. She has less drudgery
and more leisure than any other wOm-
an. She has more money to spend
and better things on which to spend
it, She has more freedom, indepeni-
ence, more power of initiative and of
self-direction. She is a person of i'm
portance-and she knows it. The
present writer is yet seeking a female
person between the ages of seven and
seventy upon this continent who does
not regard herself as of the greatest
consequence in the scheme of things.
She quietly assumes that she is some
body. The assumption is warranted
in fact and conceded in practice. The
American woman is, up to the present
of n,.Iy
and there are no visible indications
of outside improvements upon the

This season of the calendar IS
generally termed December dot
age Usually the ice man gets
busy this month-but not this

ent time not enough ice has
formed on lakes and streams to
have a chilling effect on a school
picnic. Besides the ice man there
are others who cut ice all the
year round. Competition is so
sharp they have to. The man
who doesn't cut ice don't amount
to a lump offrozen frost. Weather
conditions have somewhat
changed the order of things. At
this time of the year coalisusual-

Both have been high up to the
present, but a change in the lat

be remembered as one in which
a big amount of business was
cleaned up in an exceedingly
short time. The board went ir
session Wednesday morning and
finished Friday forenoon. work
ing both Wednesday and Thurs
day evenings. Outside the cut
ting of the sheriffs board bills
all accounts were allowed in full
The gist of the important res
olutions adopted by the board
are as 'follows:
Resolution adopted authoriz-
ing 500 to be paid out of the
general fund for the relief of the
blind.
Resolution transferring from
general fund 500 to be placed

port Of INDECENT soldiers and

from $500 to $500 per annum.
Resolution fixing fees for vag-
rants, etc, at soc each for officers
and magistrate.
Resolution adopted designat-
ing the State Bank of Eagle
River as a depository for county

suing year at $36,955.32.

real estate and personal property
was placed at Sc, 100000 by
the board. This is 1881, 266

vags. DRINKS, ETC., committed
to Jail between April LIST and
December 1st. was cut down "a

One important feature of the
boards work was designating
the State Bank of Eagle River
a depository for county funds.
1t is a move which has long been
needed and will eliminate a disa-
greeable feature to those who
do business with the county.
Heretofore the First National
Bank of Rhinelander has been
the depository for Villas county
funds.

January 5, 1909, at. which time
it will approve bonds and make
