THINGS SAID AT THE
BAPTIST CHURCH.


/ Last night Evangelist Bledsoe
preached a strong sermon on "The
Greatness of Our Salvation These
are some Of the things he said:
THE Christian can do many things
the world does, but he doesn't have to
do them to be happy. The wording
isn't happy without them"
I'VE do not need salvation from
hell as much as they need a salvation
from sin. Sin means hell. Salvation
from sin is salvation from hell, from
hell here and from hell hereafter"
The man in the pententiary wants
to be saved from the prison. He needs
to be saved from the spirit Of steal
ing"
"Our salvation is great because Of
its author The author is God, Any
thing that God has to do with or for
US is great"
Salvation is great because it covers
eternity"
Gods salvation IL complete. 1t
saves us from all the past, it covers
the present, it reaches the farthest
limit of our own future"
THE blackest sinner through Gods
power is made as pure as the most
virtuous. The blood of Jesus cleans
eth from all sin"
"The self righteous man has no
place in his soul for Gods salvation"
"The man that has tasted Gods
salvation will bring forth fruit meet
for repentance"
"Why is 1t so many business men
are too busy to attend to the saliva
tlon of their souls"
"Some people have to depend upon
a nasty habit for happiness while God
invites them to be happy in Him"
"It isn't necessary to commit muir
der to be lost. Just neglect salvation
and you are lost"
The sermon tonight is what I'll

Ex-Governor Bailey's formal with
drawal from the race for the Republic
can nomination for governor was made
during the closing moments of the Re-
publican state convention Wednesday
afternoon. While the secretaries of the
convention were at work figuring up
the total vote for the delegates to the
national convention, Mr.. Bailey was
called for and in response to an invi-
tation from the convention, extended
through a motion of W. L. Cunningham
of Cowley county, he came to the plat
form. He was greeted with tremend-
Gus applause. and said in part:
Il appreciate this opportunity to ad-
dress this convention-the last of the
Mohicans. 1 regret that this is the last
convention, for 1 regard the party con-
ventions as the greatest inspiration Of
our public life. 1 congratulate the Re-
publicans on the apparent harmony
that exists in our ranks. Qaughter).

TODAY'S MARKET REPORTS

Chicago. March 5.-WHEAT-Sentiment
in the local wheat market today was bull
ish, but prices showed only a moderate
gain over yesterdays closing quotations.
Shorts were the principal bidders. The
firmneSS of the market, however, was due
to a scarcity of offerings rather than to
anything else. May opened 1s@14c to $50
then declined to 99!Ac. Minneapolis, Du-
luth and Chicago reported receipts of 1874
cars.
The market was nervous the remainder
of the day on heavy realizing. May de-
clined from 999s@99s4c to 9S1sQ99l4c. In the
last ten minutes shorts bid the price up
1c. The market closed firm, with May 1sc
lower than yesterday. The final quota
tfons were 987s@99c.
CORN-The corn market was strong,
based on unsettled weather in the corn
belt. Local receipts were considerably in
excess of what had been estimated, but
this influence apparently had little effect.
May opened AQ3sc to 3s@19c higher, at So
@6S1sc, sold at 623sc, and then advanced
to 633sc.
The market was firm all day, closing
firm, with May CSC higher, at 81 @61ssc.
OATS-Oats were duh, but the tone of
the market was firm owing to unfavora-
BILE weather for the movement. May
opened 1sc higher, at 5S4c, and sold at
$3.50.
PROVISIONS-Prov were firm in
sympathy with the strength of corn. There
was fairly active trade. May pork was
