Episcopal Rector Talks About
Revivals.

Walla Walla, Jan. Tn an in
terview this evening the Rev. An
dreas Bard, rector of st. Paul's Epis-
copal church. gave the following
opinions of revivals that are being
conducted throughout the city and
country generally:
'Episcopalians stand in awe of re-
vivalism 1t is easier to imagine
Bismarck wearing a JacObin's cap or
Carrie Nation managing a variety
show than to see the august cOngre-
cation of st. Paul's occupying the
mourners' bench in a tabernacle. To
a majority of Episcopalians there is
but one thing worse than no religion,
and that is too much religion.
can vouch for the fact that in st.
Paul's there is not too much of it.
"a man who breaches hell and
damnation will do more for the
bulk of church-goers than the cler-
gyman who speaks modestly of the
great mysteries of God. Talmage,
Spurgeon and Moody We're special
lists on the geography of Gehenna,
and crowded auditoriums. The Uni
tartan church, on the other hand,
is losing ground, while the Episco-
pal denomination manages to keep
alive by social prestige and the frills
of fashion. For successful evange-
lism give me a shouting, hell-fire
preacher with a P. T. Barnum ap
pendiX.
Il will say for my flock, however,
that they have pretty church, good
intentions, empty benches, classic
music, fine millinery, no objection to
smoking, whist clubs, no wandering
boys tonight, and a clergyman will
ing to be the scapegoat."
Bryan for Exclusion.
Chicago, Jan. 8.-William Jen-
nings Bryan arrived here today to
attend the Jackson Day banquet
of the Jefferson club. One of the
first things he did was to repudiate
the idea of his running on nine
word platform.
There is nothing to that story"
Bryan declared. I never said |
would run on such platform. 1t
is just some more idle talk"
In an interview today Bryan made
the declaration that he is for the ex-
clusion of Asiatics. He said it is
impossible for them to assimilate
with the Caucasians of the United
States.
Il will not venture to say by what
means those races could be exclud-
ed" said Bryan. But l will say
that any means would be justified
in the end"

Tacoma Judge Says Contract May
Be Rescinded.

Tacoma, Wash, Jan. Judge
Reid today heard arguments in the
suit of Herman Nagle against the
Griffin Wheel Co. and rendered judg-
ment for the defendants. This de-
cision sustains the right of the COM
pany to discharge an employe for
violation of the rules of the COM
pany, even though that employe may
hold contract for specified
amount of work. Nagle held a con-
tract for a years work, but was dis
charged for smoking cigarettes in
the factory. He sued for $3.50, the
balance of salary due under the con-
tract.

WILL BRIDGE
DRY CULCH

The county commissioners in ses-

the construction of a bridge across
Dry Gulch, which lies about mile
south of the city.
The bridge will be PIT feet long
and the co4 as approximated by
County Engineer Navarro will be
$1,5O9. The'new bridge will shorten
the distance about two hundred yards
and at the same time do away with
the grade which it is necessary to
make on both sides at the present
time.
