w. c. T. U PRINCIPLES:
Declaration on Temperance.

When some years ago the Gen
eral Conference planted our church
on the nights OF legal and consti-
tutional prohibition, some in the
Church and many in the world
felt that we had passed from So
briefly of judgment to fanatieism,
and, in short, had become "intem-
peTateIy temperate" To-day they
find that state after state has
climbed to our position, and that
unexpected aid has reached US
from railway and other corpora
tons, as we'll as from some trade
unions. States which have been
VIGOROUSLY unfriendly to any tenn
perance legislation, except general
license, have passed local option
laws which have been accepted by
county after county until almost
the whole State has banished the
saloon. We can measure the sin
cerity of the organs Of the liqnor
traffic, as we'll as of the politicians
they control, in saying that ''pro-
hibition does not prohibit" by
their frantic efforts to defeat all
prohibitive or restrictive legisla-
ton. The well wishers of man
kind will sing doxologies in view
OF the astonishing progress of the
prohibitive idea; a progress SO
great the middleaged may hope to
see this curse of curses, alcoholic
liquor, put in the cabinet Of drugs
and no more freely sold than any
other irritant or soporific poison.
For a long time it has given Joy
to your General Superintendents
to observe that this evil traffic has
known that, when a Methodist
Episcopal minister arrived in town,
an unsparing no"quarter enemy
had arrived. On that account our
ministers have been frequently
chosen to lead the temperance
army, whether lighting for local
state or national prohibition, and
we unfeignedly rejoice that the
Woman's Temperance Union
League, has prevented the re-es-
adjustment of the canteen and
the iouling again Of the nations
hand by direct participation in
the sale Of liquor.
We have no doubt that you will
reinforce our position by some
strong declaration which may for
the next ouadrennium, serve as a
wal cry for temperance forces
whose victory, though in sight, is
not yet wholly won. All emotions
are followed by reactions. But
there ought not to be any reaction
from the wrath with which all
good and Christian citizens pursue
this sneaking, law-breaking, and
murderous traffic. 1t deserves
neither charity mol mercy. There
is no law it will keep, no pledge
it will honor, no child it will not
faint, no woman it will not defoul,
no man it will not degrade. 1t
falsely claims to be a great public
interest because it employs, thous-
ands and pays heavy taxes. But
no money in the pocket of the en-
ployers, and no taxes in the treas
ury OF the city, county, state or
nation, can balance the momen-
tary losses of the nation through
this traffic. No profits, however
real or immense, can compensate
for the corruption of our politics,
the emptiness of the d~runkard's
home or the fullness Of prisons
and graves. Rise here and pledge
eternal enmity to this foe of man
and God.-Bishop's address.

KITTY WAS A PRETTY
GOOD STORK HERSELF 4

A dispatch from Ventura, Cal,
Yesterday says:
Miss Kittie McDermott of this city
has proved herself a heroine. Miss
McDermott is a nurse and had been
at wheeler's Springs for several
weeks caring for a sick man. Sun
day she received a telephone message
from the Argabrite family in this
city to come down as soon as pos
sible. She had previously been en-
gagged by the Argabrites to be pres
ent when the stork should come to
their home. Miss McDermott sent
back word that she wCmld be in
town the next day, Monday. All day
Sunday and all Sunday night the
rain came down in torrents in the
Matilda canyon where the springs
are located. The creeks and rivers
flowed in swift yellow floods on Mon.
day morning. Despite this and the
protests of her friends at the springs,
Miss McDermott determined to make
the trip. In order to be better pre-
pared for the perilous journey che
donned male attire and then set out
over the slippery trials She final
ly reached the Meyers spring It
was six miles to the railroad, and al
though the river flowed between. she
started out. The plucky girl at last
reached a place near the Sheldon
ranch where she could go no further
crossing the Ventura river
She had Sheldon make fast rope
to her waist to keep her from being
washed down stream and then un-
hestiatingly plunged into the icy
food. After a deseprate struggle
she scrambled up the opposite bank
and continued her walk and finally
reached the Argabrite home "on
time"

gators as worth $92,916 as farming

the state OF $21S,749. The report also
asserts that in 10 years which ended
In 1905, the advertising and extra help
necessitated for the handling of such
lands cost the state $1,591,252.
These excerpts from the report are
interesting: The loss to the state
because of inadequate or fraudulent
appraisal-aside from the loss OF ST.
591,4S1 because OF advertising and
clerk hire-has been enormous. The

there has been sold by the state, dur

acres. At this average, the loss to
the state was $780, The value of
the timber alone was five times that

The Avery Removal.

Since the removal of Lincoln Avery,

letter of President Roosevelt has been
made public in which he says: 81 re-
gard the offense as gross. The hard
ship and suffering entailed on people
of small salary is set forth in touch
ing manner in the letter of complaint.
A government employe in the classi-
fed service, who is deprived by lawful
authority Of power to exercise polite
al activity, is entitled to absolute i'm
munity for failure to pay assessments
or perform political service. It appears
from the report OF the commission
that the present condition OF affairs
at Port Huron has lasted substantially
10 years. The name of the complain.
ant is held a secret at the White
House, but it is said that the person
who set the wheels agolng is the
wife of Port Huron man, employed
in the customs house. She is reported
to have written directly to the presi-
dent. 1t is to that letter, many believe,
that the president refers.

At the same time Austria Hungary
practically announced the annexation
of Bosnia and Herzegovina, two more
provinces under the supervision of the
powers Of Europe under the treaty of
Berlin. The provinces were put in
Emperor Francis Joseph's care by the
powers for an indefinite period at the
close of the Russo-Turkish war of
1878.
Bulgaria has fatty refused to sur
render the Oriental railway to Tur-
key.
AS a result of the proclamation war
between Bulgaria and Turkey Is prac-
tically certain and is momentarily ex-
pected. Bulgaria is prepared for COM
bat with Turkey. Her army has
reached high state of efficiency, al
though somewhat lacking in officers,
and that OF Turkey is in poor shape,
owing to the old regime of corruption
and neglect.
Prince Ferdinand was elected prince
OF Bulgaria in 1887. The Bulgarian
cabinet was present with the prince,
having met him yesterday at the from
tier and journeyed with him to Tir-
novo.
