The first annual meeting Of the
Woman's Presbyterial Missionary
Union was brought to a close on
Thursday afternoon By the election
Of officers for the year. Columbus
received the highest office within the
gift of the new organization, which
selected as its president Mrs. J. T

ton were interesting and profitable,
with many plans outlined for the fu-
ture and much enthusiasm manifested
in their fulfiIlment. DR.. V. D. Lee,
medical missionary to China, was
one of the prominent women in at

in the meeting There were several
informal entertainments for the visi-

with palms, ferns and cut flowers, so |
rich in their springtime variety. |
After an appropriate program, the |
charming numbers of which were the |
songs of Miss Mary Lou Peyton, and |
a recitation by Miss Miriam Sykes,

Miss Bouton's Recital.

At her Senior piano recital Friday
evening, Miss Elizabeth Bouton add
ed new laurels to her wreath in her
rendition Of an artistic program,
very happily chosen. The first part
was devoted to Edward Grieg's fam
Gus peer Gynt Suite" which was
charmingly interpreted in its wide
range of feeling, from the tenderness
of Ingride's lament to the haunting
loneliness of Solveijg's Leid, from
the fantastic music of the trolls, the
Arabian dance and the joyous melO-
dies Of awakening spring, to the
gloom of the funeral march and the
fury of a storm at sea. All these
were given with a response to the
spirit of the story that revealed the
intellectual as well as the musical
qualifications of the young pianist
and were a tribute to the finish of
her art. Then followed several 9th
er classical numbers, including Bee
thoven's sonata, Opus 81 A, the
Schubert-Lfszt tSoirees de Vienne,
and Mendelssohn's Capriccio Bril-
liant, with Miss Claude Eager at the
second piano; selections that were
splendidly played and contributed to
the completeness of program. Miss
Bouton is warmly congratulated. In
her musical career lies success of
high order.

AN UNFORTUNATE COMPARISON

How empty by comparison is Mr..
Bryan's title to the leadership of his
party today, and how slender his
claim to be its candidate for presi-
dent for third time! In public
Office his experience is limited to
two forgotten terms in the house of
representatives. His personal can
vass for the United States senate,
after second defeat for the presi-
dency, was dismal failure, one of
the most humiliating that ever be.
fell any man. For public affairs
he has had no training worth men
tioning, and his executive ability
is an unknown quantity.-New
York Sun.
The point which the Sun makes
against Mr.. Bryan might have been
made with equal force against
Abraham Lincoln in 1860. Lin
coins political career up to that
time hao been a career of failure.
He had served but one term in the
mouse OF representatives without
any special distinction. He had
been defeated in a popular contest
for United States senator in Hi
nois. He had been an unsuccess-
ful candidate for the vice presiden-
tial nomination in the republican
convention of 1856. For public af-
fairs he had had no training worth
mentioning, and his executive abil-
1ty was an unknown quantity.
Yet he made, in the most stipend
Gus crisis of the nation, the best
president the country ever had.
Now 1t by no means follows that
because Mr.. Bryan's experience in
public office has been limited and
that his political career has been
one of defeat, he would not make
a competent pIesident.-Wall
Street Journal.

Bryan was making speech a few
days ago in community that was
strongly pro- Taft, says an exchange.
There was a disposition through
out the evening to make matters
uncomfortable for him. One inebri.
ated Republican in the gallery was
particularly offensive. Early in the
proceedings he beloved out: "Go
to HI" Bryan paid no attention
to the interruption, and a few min
utes later the same strident voice
was heard again. Bryan still ig-
nored the man, who kept quiet for
exactly four minutes. Then he
broke loose again with: GO to
hi" Bryan fixed the alcoholic
one with steady gaze. Then he
said: "That is the third invita-
ton have had in the past ten
minutes to join the Republican
party" The crowd broke into
laughter and the interrupter was
squelched for the evening.

The weakest excuse that Senator
Long offers for his record in con-
gress is the one that the president
signed certain bills for which he
voted, thereby conveying the i'm
preston that he was in perfect &C.
cord with tile president. Because
a president or governor signs
bill is not conclusive evidence that
the executive is in perfect accord
with it. During President Roose-
velt's entire time in the White
House none cf the important meas
ures enacted by congress measures
up to his recommendations in his
numerous messages. They are,
rather, compromise measures and
the president had to choose between
accepting them or getting nothing.
1t often happens that good meas
ures contain bad clauses and in or
der to get the good the president
must take the bad. This often
crops out in state and national ap-
propriations. Crafts are often sand
WICKED in with legitimate and in
dispensable appropriations and
then it is up to governors and pres
idents to either accept the entire
layout or stop the governmental
machinery. The legislative de.
partment, not the executive, is re.
sponsible for bad laws and make
shifts, and the fact that conscien-
tious president or governor signs a
bill by no means proves that it is
in the interest of the people, al
though it may have a sufficient
number of good features to prevent
its veto.

The Buffalo IN. W Times says:
The returns from the democratic
primaries in Alabama indicate
that William ]. Bryan will be sup
ported by the states delegation to
the Denver convention. The re-
suit is important. For long time
the opponents of Mr.. Bryan have
been working to capture the Ala
bama delegation, employing all
means at their command to &C
complish their purpose. With AL
ALBANIA against Mr.. Bryan and
more work of the same kind thew
figured that they might create a
considerable anti Bryan sentiment
throughout the south, and then
with Alabama leading the roll-call
IN the convention and continued
use of their peculiar methods thew
might sweep the convention. The
state has been overrun with agents
OF the interests which desire the
elimination of the national leader
OF the democracy from the race for
the nomination and the methods
peculiar to them have been used to
create an anti-Bryan sentiment.
What they have done HIS gone for
naught. The returns from Califor.
MIA, Washington and Honolulu
show that the states and the terri
tory will instruct their delegates
for Mr.. Bryan. The Bryan senti-
ment is overwhelming. The op-
position forces must by this time
realize that they can not with.
stand it. And since the Times
article was printed Arkansas, Ari-
iona, Texas, Alaska, West Virginia
and Idaho have instructed for Bry-
an. In New Hampshire. where
there are no instructions, the SOL
i'd delegation is pledged to him
and in Florida the delegates so far
elected are also Bryan delegates.
