CARNATIONS" Of course! But why
grow excited about it? Have the sa-
loon people just found out that the
church is in politics? 1t is, just the
same, as it ought to be whenever an
enemy of right living and public NOR
ais gets into politics. A ferret worth
its salt follows wherever the rats go.
If the saloon had kept out of politics
the church would not have gone in.
But the church must follow the saloon
wherever it goes, because it is part of
the church's business to exterminate
the saloon So the church is not
merely willing to be treated as po-
litical organization in the fight against
the saloon, but insists on being so
regarded. Mr.. Koelling will have no
trouble in putting that label on the

THE VOTERS OPPOR-
TUNITY

The Register of Wheeling, w. Va,
utters piece of very good political
common sense when it says:
Temperance is moral and not
political issue. 1t has no proper place
in the platform of either of the old
parties When a Prohibition plank is
is inserted it is mere vote-getting de-
vice. When it goes into the declara-
ton of principles of one of the old
parties, it goes there not because the
politicians believe it should, as mat
ter of right, but because they believe
it will gain more votes than it will lose

THE CHURCH IN POLITICS

The Ep7oorh Herald, in a recent edi-
torial, comments upon the duty of the
church in politics. 1t says:
The liquor men have made a dis
covery equaled only by that brilliantly
sensational report that Holland has
been captured by the Dutch. A Chi
cago official of the United Society of
Brewers and Liquor Sellers said the
other day, whenever church organi-
cations meddle with politics and as

has four gold fish in a large glass globe. One night last week the big one started to poke and bite the others. He simply got jealous or en- vious of the others and as he was the largest he of course had the most gold, so he thought he could do as he wished. But we took him out and put him iu a smaller globe, and 1t was a prison for him. Then we put him back after eight hours incar- ceration, and he has been real nice ever since. But if he had killed one of his fellow gold fish he would be killed himself; we never would have sent him to Matteawan asylum and say he was criminally insane. No, sirree, it wouldn't matter how much gold he had, ne would get his just desert, and it should be the same with all the human family, gold or no gold. However, you never see human beings killing each other providing they leave intoxicating drinks severely alone and drink nothing stronger than nice tasting tea, coffee or buttermilk. Say, we often think how much more pleasant and agreeable the human race would be if they all would drink nothing stronger than tea, coffee or cocoa. By the way, we mean the quality that we sell. Of course there would be whole lot of cops lose their jobs, but that would be God-send. They, like all the rest of us, would have to work fo1 living then.

Totnl Importntions and the Share Of
the United States.
Answering an inquiry as to the i'm
portation Of paper into Cuba, Consul
General James L. Rodgers, of Havana,
writes as follows:
The total Importation of paper in
sheets during the year 1906 was 2,143,-
609 kilos (kilo equals 90 pounds). of
which the United States furnished
about SO per cent, and Germany, Spain
and France about Is per cent each.
In the shape OF paper bags, envelopes,
ETC.. there was an Importation in 1905
OF 1.O07,66S kllos. OF which the United
States furnished nearly rs per cent
and Germany about 10 per cent. or all
other classes Of paper in the year l 9o5
there was imported 6.2sO.2S0 kilos. OF
which Germany furnished about 80 pei
cent. Spain about 20 per cent, the
United States about 13 per cent, and
France about 10 per cent. The detailed
statistics for 1906 are not as yet
available.
The consumption Of paper in Thu
republic is steadily Increasing, and a!
Its use Is broadly Indicated. any pros
