cloak rooms it was whispered into the
ears Of Republican insurgents that a
vote against the conference report
would be regarded as opposition to the
administration. Then enough went
back to the reservation to unable the
Republican machine to save the confer
ence report by barely five votes in a
House which contains 40 Republican
majority; for let it not be forgotten
that had we recOmmitted the report,
which we only lacked five votes of do
ing, it would have been dead as the
men who lived before the food. No
doubt the unappeased yearning Of GER
tain weaklings among the Republican
insurgents for the flesh pots in the guise
of desirable committee assignments
caused some Of them to suddenly but
surily become regular" To some
folks the fear Of becoming persona non
grata at the White House, is horrible
and the fear Of being persona non grata
with Mr.. Speaker Cannon is unendura
bic. So they cringe and fawn and lick
the boots Of the mighty.
Query: If the Payne Aldrich
SmOOt bill is any sort of revision down
ward--were the most infnitissimal-
how did it happen that importers ran
races against time to get their cargOes
in before the Dingley bill was defunct
and the Payne Aldrich- Smoot mon
strosity became the law of the land?
Query No. 2: Since when did any man
desire to pay more tariff taxes than he
had been accustomed to paying? Query
No. 3: If this bill lowers the tariff,
why were the importers impOrtuning
Collector Loeb Of the Port Of New York

pie Of Sut Lovingood's Daddy and
turned dunn foOlY' Or were they
moved by a patriotic impulse to get
their imports in before Loeb shut the
door in their faces and the lower rates
Of the Payne ldrich SmOOt bill went
into effect? Any man in the wide world
can be hanged for murder on less evi-
dence than those importers furnished
that the rates Of P. A. S. Bill are high
er than the Dingley rates. While Pres
ident Taft was receiving and giving
congratulations on d revision down
ward, those poor idiOtic importers were
agitating the circumambient atmosphere
with sulphurous Oaths because it is a
revision upward and because they did
MT get their cargoes in under the lower
rates Of the Dingley bill!
IF the rates of the P A. S. Bill con
stitute a reduction how does it happen
that every manufacturer or merchant in
the country is marking up the prices of
his goods and WareS?"

Resolved, that this assembly
heartily endorse the plan of the Sat
urday half holiday, and recognize it
as tending to the better observance
of the Sabbath.
Resolved, that the General As
sembly respectfully request the facul-
ties of colleges and seminaries, IL
the way be clear, to omit recitations
on Monday mornings, so as to leave
the Sabbath free from the felt neces-
sity of some of the students of pre-
pairing their lessons on that day.
The committee in other resolutions
recommended further organization as
to Sabbath observance; commend
various organizations in their efforts
to preserve in It's purity the Chris
tian Sabbath and recommend that
at state dtime each pastor Of the
Communion preach a sermon on the
subject of the Sabbath, and that at
that time an Offering be made for
