WHERE DOES THE CREDIT
BELONG?

A year or SO ago we had highly coll
ored reports of the Importance of
the denatured alcohol bill, and so
important did the bill seem that two
of the states representative in con-
gress one senator and the other a
representative, and now both candi-
dates for the senate, engaged in the
rather undignified scramble through
the columns of the state press as
to who should have credit for the
passage Of the bill. We have always
understood that the bill came from
the house ways and means committee
and that there were about hundred
or more congressman who had sug-
gestions before the committee, each
of whom could, with equal justice
have claimed credit for the bill. The
Washington Post, which is on the
ground and keeps in close touch
with matters legislative, now says OF
the bill:
During the life Of the Fifty
ninth congress there was enacted
a measure providing for untaxed
denatured alcohol. Numerous
able, eloquent, fervid and patri-
otto speeches were made upon the
bill, and the argument was that
upon its passage the American
farmer, poor o'er-1abor'd
wight z would be enabled to turn
certain waste products, such as
corncobs. cornstalks, potato par
ings, and things into by-products,
and incidentally the. result was
to be that John d. Rockefeller
and the Standard Oil company
would fall into liquidation and
possibly make a progress through
a court of bankruptcy. At any
rate, there we're to be no more
coal oil drawn from the bowels of
the earth.
Well, the bill passed and is to-
day a law. A little denatured
alcohol has been made under it's
provisions at cost of 36c a
gallon, whereas to injuriously
affect the Standard Oil company
1t should have been produced at
not more than is cents a gal
Ion, and even there 1t would be
run out Of the market If a pa
terna1 government did not pro-
tect It by a heavy duty On coal
oil.
1t is now sought to persuade

NORTH DAKOTA NOTES

There is a long string of cases be-
fore the United States court in Far
go this week.
Jim Kennedy was the only Repub-
lican who filed for state senator in
the city of Fargo.
A postofice inspector has gone to
Devils Lake to ferret out the post
Office robbery at Grand Harbor.
The town of Beach, out on the west
border of the state, is developing
into warm newspaper town. There
are too rattling good newspapers
there.
Looks now as though the other
three candidates for United States
senator had combined against each
other in their frantic attempt to de-
feat Little.
Some Of the papers think that the
Insurgent fight doesn't signify much
OF anything anyway. Some of the
fellows are on that side because of

a Yote-Getter.

Valley City Patriot, 9th: Hon.
G. A. Johnson, Republican candidate
for governor arrived in the city yes
terday from the west and is making
the acquaintance Of our citizens. Mr..
Johnson is an old newspaper man,
a pleasant and approachable gentle
man with whom it is easy to become
acquainted. He looks like a vote
getter.

sPRAYER DID THE BUSINESS

Jamestown Alert: The spraying Of
dandehons with blue vitriol dissolved
in water seems a success, and j. G.
Campbell has demonstrated it, at least
to his own satisfaction, on the lawn
at the Mrs. Pettigrew residence on
Second avenue south. / The solution
used was one pound of blue vitriol
dissolved in three gallons of water
and applied with an ordinary sprink-
ling can. The mixture turns the
weeds black, but does not injure the
grass. Not only dandelons are killed,
but other varieties Of weeds. Several
lawn owners are expecting to get rid
Of the dandelion pests in the same
manner.

All Right for McCue.

Mercer Telegram: The Caring

paper, has good boost for the re-

The Independent says Mr.. McCue is
a successful lawyer and has been
very active in the discharge of his
duty as a public official and the
chances are good for his renomina-
ton.

Making an Effective Campaign.

D. j. Mckenzie, candidate for the
Republican nomination of state
treasurer, is making an effective
campaign. He has already visited
towns in about thirty of the forty
four counties of the state, and says
he will get to the rest of them before
the oath Of June. His genial ptr-
sonality, familiarity with the issues
of the campaign and forcefulness as
speaker get him attention wher7
ever he goes.

disappointment-and some are there
because of business relationship.
The candidacy Of G. A. Johnson for
governor continues to grow as the
campaign advances. Wherever he
has visited over the state he seems
to have left a most favorable i'm
preston.
According to the Grand Forks
Herald stockwell has been out over
the state on political mission
counting straw men, and despite all
the gloom thinks he can yet see some
hope for the progressives.

Buena Vista.-The Presbyterian Sun
day-school enjoyed a very pleasant sur
prise last Sunday morning when the
superintendent Mr.. w. M. Brown, read
a note from a Chinese pupil, Eng M.
Wah, conveying Christmas greetings to
the school, accompanied with an appro-
pirate gift to each officer and teacher.
Our Chinese pupil has joined the Presby-
Sunday-school and his contributions to
the church and school, made from his
earnings in the laundry, should bring
the blush of shame to our people.
Bay View-On the fifth Sunday in
November a committee of Norfolk Pres
bytery, consisting of Rev. ]. T. McBryde,
D. D., Rev. Charles Friend, and Elder
M. H. Stevenson, of Cape Charles church,
installed Rev. w. c. Flournoy as pastor
of Holmes church, which is located at
this place. Rev. Charles Friend preached
the sermon, which was a most earnest
and impressive one, and was greatly en-
joyed by the large congregation. Dr.
McBryde presided, propounded the con-
ditional questions and delivered most
appropriate and solemn charge to the
pastor. Mr. M. H. Stevenson delivered
a most effective and helpful charge to
the congregation. The whole service was
unusually enjoyable, and at it's close all
of the members of the church came for
ward and gave the new pastor the right
hand of fellowship, assuring him of their
hearty sympathy and cooperation The
pastor considered this an suspicious time
to begin series of evangelistic services.
Rev. Chas. Friend preached for him at
night ALSO following up his morning
sermon with a strong and telling sermon
from Hebrews H. 6, first clause, But
without faith it is impossible to please
Him." The pastor preached throughout
the week at night and brought the SER
vices to a close the Sunday night follow
ing. Although we had rather cold and
threatening weather at times, still the
attendance was very encouraging; the
church was revived the members all

society to this work.
LAwRENcEvILLE.- Second Sunday in Oc-
tober dawned clear and bright, with bright
prospects for Lawrenceville Presbyterian
church, it being the occasion of the in
stallation and ordination of it's popular
pastor, Rev. F. l.. Delaney. The morning
service at IL o'clock was opened by a
most eloquent sermon from Dr. Foster, of
Petersburg, after which the sage and
venerable DR.. Eppes delivered, in his
admirable way, the charge to the pastor,
and the talented Rev. Tilden Sherer, with
beautiful vim and force to the people.
The house was filled with an appreciative
audience. Since then there has been a
meeting of much interest conducted by
the most excellent and godly evangelist,
r. Dabney Carson. Never did a man of
God take more sublimely among our
people.

Rev. R. H. Fleming, D. D., preached a
sermon from Psalms 81: 81, mark the
perfect man and behold the upright; for
the end of man is peace"
large congregation, representing the
several churches he planted and to which
he ministered for over twenty years, were
| in attendance and listened with rapt at
tention to the splendid portraiture of the
character and self-sacrifcing work of this
man of God. Letters from the Rev. G. D.
Waller, of West Virginia, Rev. P. G. Clark,
of Bluefeld, W. Va, and Rev. j. K Har-
ris, Floyd Courthouse, expressing SYM
pathy and testifying to the high character
and faithful services of the deceased, were
read by the pastor, Rev. T. NJ McCorkle.
During the services many were in tears,
many hearts we're touched by the eloquent
tribute of the preacher, while the atten-
ton and hearty response to his utterance
showed the high estimate in which he
was held. These services will long be
remembered.

fession of their faith in Christ.
We have also recently been favored by
visit from Rev. j. B. Carpenter District
superintendent of Schools. His visit was
at most unfortunate time, as there was
quite a good deal of sickness in the con-
gregation, and Brother Carpenter had
rather small hearing. But those who
were fortunate enough to be present
thoroughly enjoyed his interesting talks,
and he has promised to give us another
date when we can promise him a full
house. w. CT.
FARMvILLE.-Paper adopted by the con-
gregation, December g. 1908: In parting
with the Rev. H. Tucker Graham as our
pastor, we desire to express our high es-
TEEN for him in all the relations which
the term implies. Four years ago he
came to us, and has gone in and out
before us. By his gentleness, faithfulness
and Jealous Christian labors, he has won
not only the esteem, but the love of his
entire flock In this community he has
been a living exemplifcation of the high
est type of the true Christian gentleman;
winning his way to all hearts by the gen.
tie and refined speech and manners which
spring from warm heart, sanctified by
the love of Christ. The work he has done
for our church is shown by it's increased
membership and it's zeal of good works
and he carries with him to his new field
of labor our earnest desire and fervent
prayers for his success, and for the per.
sonal welfare of himself and his family

FINCAsTLE.-Our labors during the past
few months in our field in Botetourt have
been blessed. Ten have been received into
the church upon profession of faith in
Christ; some were received into the
Mountain Union church, the larger num-
Der into the Fincastle church. Our week
ly prayer meetings are encouraging, yet
there is room for improvement. Our
Ladies' Missionary Society," one of the
oldest in the Synod of Virginia, is doing
her share of self-denying work The
members have contributed their dollar
each toward liquidating the Foreign Mis-
sion debt, and now are taking steps to

family were remembered on Thanksgiving
Day. At our Quarterly Communion last
Sabbath, two young ladies were received
into the church, and two children were
dedicated to God in the rite of baptism.
