PRIEST REJECTED THE
STORY Of PARADISE

ROME, January 24.-In pursuance of
its vigorous anti Modernist campaign,
the Vatican has suspended the Barna-
bite professor, Minoechi, the well
known author, traveller and preacher,
and friend of Count folstoi. ATinocehi,
in a recent discourse, eontended that
the results Of historical exegesis and
the development Of science made it
impossible to further believe in the
first two chapters of Genesis.
The Vatican severely reproved him
and ordered that if he would avoid
punishment he must publicly declare on
his conscience as man and priest his
belief IN the historical value of Genesis,
especially affirming the truth of the
story of Eden.
Professor Minoechi objected that his
conscience would not allow him to do
this, whereupon he was prohibited from
saying mass. The incident has caused
a sensation IN Catholic circles.

and sd, but of all these only the follow
ing had greater list of casualties than
did the Srd to wit; the 4th, 9th, 18th,
18th, 18th and 10th, but in all. Again,
if you will look at the losses in a single
action, you will find that but ID of the
infantry regiments from Iowa lost more
severely than did the 3rd. They are as
follows: The Sind, at Pleasant Hill, SO;
the 24th at Champion Hills, 70; the 7th,
at Belmont, "a; the 9th, at Pea Ridge,
"a; the 10Th, at Prairie Grove, u; the
22nd, at Vicksburg, 70; the Sth, at Shiloh,
6S; the 9th, at Shiloh, IS: the 9Th, at
Iuka, 81; the 10th, at Champion Hills, 81,
the End, at ft. Donelson, 81; the 18th, at
Shiloh, 81; and the 13sh, at Atlanta, 81.
These figures will speak volumes to you
and the other gallant band left of the
old 3rd. May we not all be proud Of
the record made by the regiment led by
such men as Gen. Bussey, Judge Cald-
we'll and Gen. Noble? But | have not
given you quite all the record. The
3rd lost in action officers and 70 men
ana four officers and go men by acct
dent, disease, etc, making total Of 3lS.
Neither is the regiment unknown in
this place. In the High School of this
city, there is battalion of about 400
cadets. These cadets formed the spe-
cial guard for Admiral Evans at San
Francisco last May, and they carried
with them the flag given them by men,
bers of the 3rd Iowa, and they were
very proud of the honor and specially
of the flag. No one of the cadets but
is friend of the Bird, Iowa Cav. We
hope to have these same cadets the
'sguard of honor" to the national COM
mander, at the encampment when it is
here next year. Come and see them
If there is anything else | can do tc
show the standing and rank of the regi-
ment of which we are all justly proud,
please let me know. There will not be
many more Of these reunions, but l shall
try to be with you at the next one even
though it is not held here during the
encampment.
Personally l feel as young as did
when out at Pontotoc,. Mississippi yot
were the innocent cause of cheating mt
out of nice breakfast which was pre-
pared by fair rebel, just off to the
right OF our line. But that is all in the
dim past. l hope all Of the boys fee
as we'll physically as do, and that you
will all enjoy years of strength ant
health as we'll as happiness.

Representative Lloyd Shows How tho
Congress Gave Railroads That
Sum Improperly.

Representative James Z. Lloyd. OF
Missouri, chairman of the Democratic
national congressional committee, on
March 10, 1908. exposed the fragrant
theft of the peoples money through
the unfair weighing of mails when Of
fetal tests were made to determine
what compensation the railroads
should receive. He said:
"Mr. Chairman in delivering my adj
dress few days since on postal con-
ditions. in discussing the interpreta-
ton of the law as to the weighing of
the mail, l failed to state the law on
the subject, and I wish to do so now:
1.-The average weight to be ascer-
tanned in every case, by the actual
weighing of the mails for such num-
Der of successive working days, not
less than thirty. at such times after
June 80. 1878, and not less frequently
than once in every four years
Later the time was changed to
ninety days. Otherwise the law has
not been changed to this date.
Until March 2. 1907, the depart
ment required the mail to be weighed
for ninety days. Sunday was not con-
sidered, so that the Weighing covered
period of one hundred and five days
instead of ninety successive days. In
other words. working days were con.
strued to mean week days. Postmas-
ter General Cortelyou changed this in
depreciation which had been accepted
as correct for over thirty years and
issued the following order as his con-
struction of the law:
That when the weight Of mail is
taken on railroad routes, the Whole
number of days the mails are weighed
shall be used as divisor for obtain
ing the average weight per day.
'"This required in effect, that. in
stead of dividing the number of work
ing or week days in the weighing
period, the devisOr should be the mum
Der of days on which mail was actual
ly carried during the period. If Il
was weighed one hundred and five
days. tie divisor to obtain the daily
weight was one hundred and five. II
the mail was not carried on Sunday
the divisor would be ninety. This. as
you can readily see. would give less
compensation for carrying the full
week than for six days, for the &C
cumulated mail would he PRACTICAL!
the same whether carried in six days
or in seven.
'The present postmaster general
seeing this predicament issued anothe
order Of construction. known as 'orde
412, which is as follows:
THAT when the weight OF mail i
taken on railroad routes tie Who'll
number of days included in the weigh
ing period shall be used as a diviso
for obtaining the average weight pc
day.

"Uncle Joe" Invites Demand That

of the American people and showed
that he is worth approximately $780,

Having thus accepted Speaker Can

Bryan demanded in return that
Speaker Cannon "snitch on HIMSELF"
that is. that Mr.. Cannon also "'fess

Now "Uncle Joe's" Turn.
None will deny that it is now Uncle
Joe's turn to take the people into his
confidence. Down in Danville, it is
true that Mr.. Cannon and his brother
as bankers are thought each to have
amassed much more than $1,O0O,OOO
| Certainly his credit in the financial
world rests on the general belief that
4 approximately that sum represents his
earthly possessions.
If that be true, it is to be hoped
that the speaker will give details as
to how he got it. If it be untrue, theI
let him tell exactly how much he II

Mr.. Cannon cannot gracefully re

A couple ofsyoung gentlemen in their
teens living in Leon, got a notion into
their heads that they were getting "the
worst of it" at their homes and decided
to run off. Tuesday they boarded the
south bound freight and left their homes
for the unexplored countries in the
southwest. But the telephone proved
to be faster than the freight and when
they arrived in Davis City an officer
was awaiting them at the depot, having
authority from their parents to arrest
and hold them. About the time the Of
ficers got the boys to the mayors Office
their fathers were here with an auto
and soon the boys were taken back to
Leon. and it is to be hoped better and
wiser. Will the boys not learn that
their best friends are their parents!
