The expression of such views is
very encouraging to the average ne
gro of the South, and it increases
the difficulties which the white man
encounters in looking after the race

I suppose the President will ex-
press similar views when he comes
to Jackson and talks to the negroes
in the grove to the north of the Fair
Grounds.
If he should, the committee on
arrangements ought to turn him
over to the negroes for further en-
tertainment, even if it puts the
Chief Escort out of job.
Just how any decent white man
could deem it IAN honor to pay $25
to sit down to the table with white
man who holds the views expressed
by President Taft, is an inscrutible
mystery.

to exempt everybody else from such
qualifications.

granted certain rights in Hetch-
Hetchy Valley by the Federal Gov
eminent. The granting of rights,
the permission to do certain thing,
necessarily involves the right to the
means for acting upon those rights
and to do that certain thing. Sec
rotary Ballinger's red-tape officials
hold otherwise.
Acting upon the rights granted by
the Roosevelt administration, San
Francisco has gone ahead, making
all preparations to establish source
of municipal water supply in Hetch-
Hetchy Valley. But the Ballinger
circumlocution office orders the Unit
ed States Army to interfere with and
prevent the work necessary for MAX
ing use Of the rights granted to this
city. Can anyone doubt that that
action was taken at the behest and in
the interest of the Spring Valley Wa
ter Company?
The California delegation to the
National Irrigation Congress has
adopted a resolution depreciating the
Ballinger efforts to defeat through
technicalities the permit issued by
Secretary Garfield granting the use
of the waters of Hetch-Hetchy VAL
ley to this city, and the delegation
calls upon President Taft, ''to see
to it that the plain purpose of the
permit is not overcome through small
technicalities, by the use of the Unit
ed States Army, against the public
interests. -
The Ballinger move against San
Francisco is plainly a move against
the public interests in favor of pri-
vate corporate interests If Balm
ger wishes to act as an attorney for
private monopoly he should not be
permitted to remain in the Cabinet
to act in that capacity. The corpo-
rations have enough attorneys out
side the Cabinet. Ballinger has be-
come scandal. He should be wrap
ped in bundle of his monopoly red
tape and shipped back to his friends

CAPERs OF A SOCIALIST.

What may or may not be Social
Reason, an organ published at Gil
rard, Kan. Before the last presi-
Dental election, it came out for few
weeks with an expose of the doings
of the administration in the Philip
pines, showing up the alliance be-
tween the Republican" party and
the papal hierarchy After the cleo
ton, it dropped that subject, and
then it went for" the tyrant Diaz,
of our southern republic Then it
held up it's Editor Warren as the
victim of an unjust verdict in trial
for misuse of the mails. SO it
sails, setting it's canvas to catch the
breezes which it expects will increase
it's circulation and the Socialist vote
That seems to be natural.
But the point we wish to make is
this: Socialism, being fundamentally
wrong, cannot be defended upon
fundamental principles; so Social
ist' organs, speakers and writer's
find it first necessary to obscure this
truth by assailing "Capitalism -
That is their talismanic word It's
iteration affords them the comfort
felt by the old colored Alabama
woman at the revival meeting, who
heard the blessed word, "Mesopota-
mia," sung in all the figures of the
musical scale, until her feelings
were SO worked up that she became
Converted"
The paper we have named is
taken as a good specimen of Social
istic regeneration. 1t receives it's
distinctive cast from mental legerde-
main.
Socialism is a treacherous move
ment to enslave the people, while
protesting to liberate them. It does
not propose a reform of abuses,-it
wants to destroy or abolish the
thing abused. 1t does not regard the
moral education of the people,
that would mean the education of
the unit, the individual, and, of
course, Socialism" has no use for
the individual, as such; it plunges
the man into the mass; it wants to
create a great and indefinite whole,
or "Collectivism,' in which it fondly
images all will be rich and happy,
but in which common sense discerns
that all would be enslaved.
In short, Socialism" proposes a
haven in which degenerate man
could rest at ease and in security,
making no effort to reform his life,
without any incentive to use his
God-given powers,-a mere thing,
unworthy of being regarded as the
image of his Creator.-The Ameri-
can Whip.

exercising his authority, stated that
he could not approve the nominal
ton of J. A Smith, unless he had
changed his views on missions. He
was promptly told that J. A. Smith
had not changed, and that further he
would consider it a favor to be re-
lieved of this difficult task. NJ F.
Freeman was then elected.
Brother King could not force us
to yield our ground on this question
even by withdrawing fellowship.
But what right has one man to
dictate to another what must be
done in religious affairs? Is that
not the Catholic idea? Catholicism
may thrive where the laymen are
forced to sit like scared rabbits and
accept the mandates of the Popes
and Bishops, but Professionalism was
not founded that way.
We believe that in church as well
as state that the governing boards
derive their power from the consent
of the governed. We don't believe
in Czarism'' in church
any more than state affairs. Fully
tWo-thirds of the church people to-
day must be opposed to our present
method of missionary work, or
would be if they fully understood it.
1t must be a sad day for Meth
odism or any other ''ism'' when her
subjects cannot do their own think
ing.
1t does not matter what your opin-
ions are if you will just saw wood"
do the paying and say nothing But
don't dare you speak your honest
convictions if they conflict with your
superiors CD.
A little book entitled, 'FWho Quail
lied for Stewardship, might
prove interesting reading.
1t was our pleasure to listen to
Tom Bells speech last Tuesday
Knowing him to be a Christian gen
tleman we noted with much interest
his statement in regard to the in
fuence that Roman Catholics are ex-
erting over our Government.
He told of his efforts to exclude
so many low Italians from Southern
Italy, of how the Roman bosses,
through Cannon, had defeated the
same, and predicted that if the Prot
estants of this country did not get
together and combat Catholicism
the day was not far off when we
would be at the mercy of this creed
But you can't get our people to
see it, Mr.. Bell. They are interested
nightly in building chapels in Cuba
to save folks from this awful creed,
but they are painfully silent about it
here. They seem to let them elo-
quently alone here.
And, by the way, we were shown
that this dreaded pellagra was
brought here by this low element
from South Italy. But trust in the
Lord say nothing and be happy!-

A Startling
Statement
New York Medical Authori.
ties Claim Dyspepsia to be
a Pre-Disposing Cause
of Consumption.

The post norton statistics of the big
New York hospitals show that some
cases of consumption are due, at least
indirectly, to unchecked dyspepsia
especially when the victim was predis-
posed to tuberculosis.
Dyspepsia wears out the body and
brain. The weakened. irritable stom-
ach being unable to digest food. the
body does not receive the required
nourishment, and the victim becomes
thin, weak and haggard AS a result.
the body becomes a fertile field in
which the germs of disease may lodge
and flourish.
Therefore. the persons who permits
dyspepsia to progress unhindered is
guilty of contributing toward the de-
velopment of one of the most insidious
and fatal diseases known to mankind.
Dyspepsia may be completely eradi-
Gated If properly treated We sell a
remedy that we positively guarantee
viii completely relieve indigestion or
dyspepsia, or the medicine used during
the trial will cost the user nothing.
This remedy has been named Rexall
Dyspepsia Tablets. Certainly no offer
could be more fair, and our offer should
be proof positive that Rexall Dyspepsia
Tablets are a dependable remedy.
Inasmuch as the medicine will cost
you nothing If it does not benefit you

indigestion or dyspepsia to try Rexall

tains enough medicine for fifteen days
