Young women were constantly kept on hand,
to sell their favors for the benefit OF the
priests
These denominations actually invaded Ju-
dea; and they spread their understandable or
gies in and around the Temple IN Jerusalem.
Among certain Oriental peoples, the priest IS
so revered that it is considered an honor to
the family to have him occupy the nuptlal
couch with the bride, on the first night after
the marriage.
In parts of India, and other portions OF
the Eastern world, the priest is invariably
called in to leftover the bride.
The Roman Catholic priests and fr'lars en-
posed that damno6ze abuse Of eIer5co1 goa19r
on the Philippine Islanders, AND PRESI-
DENT TAFT' KNOWS IT.
President Mckinley appointed commits
sion to inquire into conditions in the Philip
pines, and Mr. Taft was Chairman of 1t.
The report made by the commission IS
known as Senate Document No. 100.
OVER Mr.. TAF7"S OWN SlGNA-
TURE, AND THAT or PRESIDENT
Mckinley, the horrible statement IS maGde
that hundreds of men and aconaen aoere ho-
ina together IN adultery, because the priests
refused to perform the marriage ceremony,
UNLESS THE OFFICIATTNG "MAN
or GOD" WE'RE WE'D TO SPEND
THE FIRST NIGHT WITH THE
BRIDE.
That is hideous enough-but do you not see
that it proves something far more revolving!
Those hundreds Of husbands e0h0 aoould not
Viezd their brides to the zustfuz embraces OF
the Catholic priests, WE'RE THE E1CEP-
TIONS TO THE RULE.
The rule itself aros, that all husbands had
to submit IN ALL THE OTHER CASES,
THE BRIDE HAD TO ACCEPT THE
CATHOLIC PRIEST As HER BED
FELLOW FOR TIE FIRST NIGHT.
Other witnesses before the Taft commits
sion testified that the priests and frlars had
no morality at all and that no native girl or
woman, old or young was safe from their
licentious pursuit.
AqaiqsSt these aarfuz conditions, the Fill
pi,o0s rose IN reuoM against Spain. THE
UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT AC-
CEPTED AGUINALDO, AND OTHER
FILIPINO CHIEFS, AS ALLIES, IN
THE SPANISH WAR. Then, when Spain
had been easily whipped-poor old decrepit
thing our great and good Government
made ruthless aoar upon or late allies, SUB
d,eed them to submission, AND HANDED
THEM OVER TO TIE CATHOLIC
PRIESTS AGAIN.
Not only that, Mr.. Taft gave the friars

said what the two newspapers reported, ne
should have produced an affidavit, or seg1'e0
statement, or letter, from Rev. Walter Man
sell, Tin whose church the lecture was dellv-
cred or from Mrs. Mansell, (who gave one
of the reporters an account of the lecture over
the telephone,) or from some member Of the
audience who heard DR.. Wakefield.
Was not that reasonable!
Consider the facts a moment:
One of the Christian girls who had, against
her fathers will, devoted herself to Chinese
mission work, in New York, had been Sc
duced, and then foully murdered by her
Converts The whole country was aroused.
The public had not had the faa'atest c0ncep-
ton of uhat the Missionaries Kept covered up.
The Elsie Sigel case revealed hideous condi-
lions which no one had dreamed OF.
The New York preachers began to give out
interviews The Rev. DIR. Asa Blackburn
said, that if the whole truth about the bust
ness were known, the nation would be horrl-
fed Ind DIR. Blackburn has not craaotshed
The Rev DR.. Macarthur, using different
language, strongly corroborated DR.. Black
burn. lie has since cyorfshed
Mrs. Florence Todd an experienced mis-
sionary worker, testified to the same horrors
that DIR. Blackburn described. She has not
c2urfshed
Miss Helen Clark, missionary worker of
long experience declared that she had seen
around her, on all sides, ruined homes and
blighted lives, as the result of ASST gning to
each Chinaman a white girl as teacher.
Mrs Charlotte Smith, President of The
National Woman's Industrial League, spoke
even more emphatically of the wickedness
and folly of sacrificing pure qch5te girls, IN
the hopeless effort to ChaTstianige Chinamen.
Now, in the midst of this uproar about
Elsie Sigel, and her Converts, DR.. Paul
Wakefield lectured on Missions in the Chris
tan Church, in Charlottesville. The New
York tragedy was one of the things that he
discussed. In substance, he was reported to
have said, that there were very many other
tragedies of the same sort as the Sigel case,
consequent upon mission work among the
Chinese; and that, eve missionaries haze
hn0ocm Of this Tong tinoe."
How did those reports of Wakefeld's lee
ture get into the newspapers?
One Of them aOas dictated to the reporter,
Mr.. Charles Boacers, By Dir. Wakefield him-
self. BOWERS SAYS So, AND DIR.
wakefield Has NEVER DENIED
TT!
The Bowers report was written down, as
Wakefield talked. Mr.. Bowers wrote me that
some of Wakefeld's statements were too in
decent to print This dictation was given in
Waketield's room, previous to the delivery of
the lecture.
The other report was made after the lecture
had been delivered. Mrs Mansell. the
preachers wife, talked to Mr.. Clifford Peter
son, over the telephone, giving him the main
points of the address
The report which the Christian lady made
after the lecture correspondent in every essen

Wakefield do? NOTHING He can not
produce SO much as a letter to back him up
Doesn't your common sense tell goa that, had
1T been possible, he wouzd h0ue obtained a

Doctors Wakefield and Corey utterly aban-

evidence. They ceased to try to prove that

Young Miller is very seriously annoyed
because of my failure to treat with dlstln-
guished consideration, the witnesses In favor
of Foreign Missions.
Yes, Bro. Towson did mention some good
men who had toured the world looked In on
the mission work in the foreign field, and
pronounced it good. Haven't [, time and
again, admitted that what the missionaries
carry to the heather does them good?
When we 90 into heathendom, building
commissaries hospitals, Widows homes, Or
phans' homes, kindergartens, schools, col
leges, ETC.. of course the heather are bene-
flied When we feed their hungry, clothe
their naked, physic their sick, perform surgi-
cal operations on the afflicted; take care of
their blind, deaf and dumb; teach them how
to farm, and how to work in the various
branches of industry; give them the boon of
free books, free secular education, free mu-
steal accomplishments; and teach them how to
cook, make wearing apparel, etc.,-of course
all this does good; and the Bryans, Roose-
velts, Tafts, Stephenses and others speak
highly of it.
But aoho hnoacs hoao mamy Of the "eon-
perts" professed Christ, to get a share Of
those physical and mental Benefits? Think
how irresistibly the poorer classes of heathen
dom are tempted to play the hypocrite, an or
der to get support IN q "H0ne", free bo0rd
IN school, free education, free medicine,
medical attention. and a bountiful supply Of
food IN a time Of famine?
Again, h02U can a traveller get on the IN
side of things, and learn the real facts about
conditions in foreign lands!
Mr. Bryan has been in New York, dozens
of times; but he never suspected the existence
of Elsie Sigel horrors as DR.. Black
burn mentioned in his interview in the New
York World
Mr. Taft has been in New York scores Of
times, but he never imagined the existence of
such hideous conditions as were revealed by
the Elsie Sigel case.

SCHOOL LANE TROUBLE
Black Hills Mining Claims Boggle
Matte in That Section

Pierre-Ever since the organization
Of the state, the state land depart
ment has been having trouble with
the school lands in the Black Hills
section Of the state. The school sec
tons are being taken as mineral
lands, and after the claimant has dug
a hole which he claims is for pros
pecting purposes, he proceeds to use
the land for agricultural purposes,
but claims it as mineral" The es-
Enlistment of the forest reserve IN
that section has also tangled matters,
and the state department has for a
long time been attempting to get the
records Strengthened out so as to Sc
cure absolute title to the school sec
tions for the state. but has always
met a block in the government de-
partment. That department in all
cases ruling against the state. A
meeting will be held this evening
which will be attended by Senator
Crawford, Congressman Burke, At
torney General Clark and Land COM
missioner Dokken, in which the pro-

congress will be discussed. Action
being sought to either esta blish the
state title in some manner, or to al
low the state to withdraw from that
section and secure lieu lands in some
other part of the state. Senator
Gamble and Congressman Martin
could not be present, but have agreed
to act with their colleagues in any
proposition which is agreed upon.
Pierre - Government surveyors,
who have been making a resurvvey Of
the forest reserves in Harding coun-
ty, have completed their work on the
Cave Hills reserve, and while they
have changed the ines in several
places, they have not materially
changed the area of the reserve. By
their changes, they have opened some
Of the rae in the original reserve,
to settlement, and have included 9TH
er tracts which were open. within the
boundaries of the reserve. The new
land taken. in is mostly rough, and
not valuable for agricultural lands.
while that set out was land more
adapted to agriculture. The other
forest reserves in Harding county will
be re-surveyed and changes in lines
are probable in both Short Pine and
Slim Butte reserves.

We have therefore produced an aver

This estimate Is borne out by the
fact that the railways actually shipped
out CT the state SOS, 0S3, 900 worth Of
agricultural products during the year
1908, exclusive Of mineral and stone.
From these facts we find that in the
year 1903 each farm family in the

cultural products, and the people of
the state produced 1912 worth of agri-
