One of The Herald's leading
exchanges asserts, with consider
able warmth, that the forced
nomination af Gov. johnson for
a third term was but the selfish
scheme of a democratic Office
holders trust, to keep them
selves annexed to a salary from
the public treasury. Granted,
for the sake of argument, that
the charge is true, it might not be
out of place to inquire whether
any of Mr.. Jacobson's support
ers are working for his election
with a view of securing a place
for themselves at the public crib,
or are their exertions in that di-
rection the results of pure pat
riotism?

A TROUBLESOME PLANT.

Government Spending Thouands 70
Dollars to Control Hyacinth.
The water hyacinth, the beautiful
marine plant of green leaves and ex-
luisite flowers, which has done such
great damage to commerce in Louis
lana and East Texas, is making it's
appearance in the ship channel.
A few years ago the water hyacinth
was brought from Florida to Louisiana
as a floral ornament. Last year the
government expended 100000 in an
effort to control the pest, and has only
partly succeeded. Streams and bayOus
which once carried big barges of lum-
ber in Louisiona and eastern Texas
have been closed to navigation by the
rank vegetation of the hyacinth.
The Sabine River above Orange has
become filled with the plants, and it
is related that these all grew from a
few plants carelessly thrown into the
river by some housewife when the
plants she had in tub as an orna-
ment became to numerous.
The matter has been brought to the
attention of the city authorities and
steps have already been. taken to de-
stroy before it is too late all the hya-
cinths at Sam Houston Park and those
which have got into the bayou. A boat
is to be sent along the lower reaches
and all hyacinths carefully gathered
and destroyed. 1t is anticipated that
there may be some legislative action
prohibiting the growing of these plants
near navigatble stream and punish
ing any one SO careless as to throw any
of them into a stream which is of any
use for any purpose.

MEN AND CHURCH WORK

MIN AND CHUkCn WOkk
The Minnesota Congregation
al Conference, in session at
Faribault-last week, decided to
push the Congregational Bro
therhood" idea.
The Congregational Brother
hood is an organization of all
the men in the Congregational
church, effectively organized for
church work. .:......
The idea is not a new one,
but it has been made prominent
oflate years. Men are waking
up and taking a more active part
in the work of the church than
ever before. And this augurs
for good not only in the church
but in the world at large, for
however men may differ relative
to religious beliefs, yet all who
are honest admit that Christian
ity is the great motive power of
the world. It follows as a
corollary that the more active
the church, by so much the
more will the world be benefited.
For years it has been a stand
ing joke that many mems religion
like their property, is in their
wife's names. Look over the
average congregation in the av-
erage church and the male con-
tingent is not greatly in evidence.
If asked why this is so. the av-
erage man generally offers a
lame excuse.
The brotherhood movement,
which has pervaded a number
of the religious denominations to
a considerable extent, shows
that the men are awakening to a
realizing sense of their obliga-
tions. If this stir results in no.
thing more than the prompt pay
ment of the preacher it will not
have been in vain. The fact is
that if the average business
man should run his business on
the same basis that the average
church conducts it's financial
affairs, the auctioneer's flag
would be out over his front door
in thirty days.
The principle of the brother
hood movement is to get the men
to work for themselves and for
each other and thus tighten the
pastors burdens. When a man
has work to do he is going to
receive some of the benefit. An
idle man is a fit subject for the
devils wiles. A busy man
HASN'T very much time to daily
with His Santanic majesty.
Religion is a practical thing.
The merely "goody-goody" per-
son cuts little figure and COM
mands little respect; the man
who daily meets the tempter in
deadly grapple and who by the
sheer force of character coupled
with divine assistance comes off
victor, is the man whose services
are of value to the world. The
Herald believes that this new
movement among men, under
whatever name it be known, is
going to be of practical value
not only to the men themselves
but also to the church and to
mankind generally.
