solved ito call her virtue back
and conquer time and fate,
there above the hills of that
classic land, above the roar OF
battle and the crash of arms,
mingling with the shouts OF the
victors and the groans OF the
vanquished, arose a fierce spirit
of liberty that prompted the
Greeks to fight and die for their
freedom. The world saw those
men die for their rights, and the
world praised and applauded
them. The world saw John
Brown die, not for his own free
dom won, "but for the sake OF
the despised slave" And did
the world praise John Brown?
His heroic death, on behalf of a
down-trodden people reused
from fatal slumber the consci-
ence of a nation, thrilled liberty
loving hearts the world over, and
he got on this continent a revo-
luton of such greatness as the
world had never seen before,
The Revolution proved that but
one flag, and that flag the flag OF
freedom, could wave over oul
heads, for where liberty is
there slavery cannot be; where
slavery is, there liberty cannot
be-
His death was one of those in.

not John Brown, but slavery,
that almost brought our country
to destruction, made beasts men
and brought Americans to 2
point where Gods wrath an6
vengeance must surely fall upon
them. At John Browns death
for a moment the heart of ma.
ton stood still. Murderer, cut
throat, assassin, traitor, were
the best names the people coulc
apply to him. A fierce scream
for his blood went up from all
the land. Anti-slavery men made
haste to free themselves from all
completely with him, by declar-
ing themselves against him and
his methods. 1t was at this time

crazy as the man he was defend
ing. Men were surprised,
stunned, at his fearlessness. His
word were at once from heaven,
and Brown, in the eyes of the
North thus became patriot
and a martyr. Phillips spoke
The word for which millions were
listening, and which became at
last watchword for a loyal ma
ton. He was a strong believer
in the rights of men, and be-
ieved that it was not race or
color, sect or nationality, to be
respected, but manhood, WHEREBY
it was found. The rights of
he poorest and lowliest were to
lim as sacred as the rights of
he highest and mightiest. The
1espised slave, the wronged In
liam, were his clients, and they
lid not appeal to him in vain.
He had honors and fame before
him, and he gave them all up for
l down-trodden race, and for it
he was called a fanatic. He
worked to help mankind, and he
Used his talents and means with
)ut reserve. He poured forth
lis very soul in his eloquence,
n behalf of the slave. His shin
ng goal was Liberty, Justice,
Truth. He saw our country
prospecting, her great ships o
very sea, her factories, her fl
lances, and he saw great
wealth flowing into her Golfers.
He saw all this glory and opu-
ence, and he knew that beneath
t all there was evil working
md that evil was strong enough
o overthrow and crumble al The
worldly power and grandeur.
Truth, liberty and justice are the
>nly permanent foundations of
great governments, and these
were not then a part of ours.

Phillips recognized this fact.

He believed the only way to
save our nation was to shatter
The evils that were gnawing at
Ter vitals, to shatter slavery and
put truth and justice in the
heart of our government and

Buying Coal Lands
 For Future Use

Pittsburg, Penn, June 1s.-In anticl- patton of years of heavy steel maklhs the Jones & Laughlin Steel Company today closed a deal for coal lands m volving the expenditure of s4,ooooOo III cash though the coal lands thus pur- chased will not be developed for years President B. F. Jones explained the pug outlay as necessary "because 1t IS de- siraible for the future coal suppiy or the steel company. The new tract IS to coal land already owned and will be held in reserve, so no de- velopments will be made there at once-
 The fact that the Jones & Laugh lin firm considers it good business to tie up s4,000 900 admittedly for some years is considered by business Pitts burg as indication that there is faith in future business.
 The Spang-Chalfant mills of Pitts burg report the booking of pipe orders in June up to date of 100000 tons, which is a greater record than that of any whole month heretofore. Spe- cifications were ordered yesterday for a new pipe mill to be rushed, since the present mills cannot handle the busi- ness.

Cardinal Gibbons Gives Advice to
 Girl Graduates

Baltimore. June 1s-In the course of his address before the grad uates of St. Joseph's College and Academy at Enmitsburg. Md. yester- day Cardinal Gibbons gave his opinion with regard to woman's suffrage and advised the girl graduates to put aside any ambition to vote.
 ''I am sorry to say,' declared the Cardinal. "that I am entirely opposed to womans suffrage, not that I hate the women, but because I love them and want them to fulfil the mission God intended for them.
 Nowhere are women so honored as in the United States, and this is due to the chiva1ry of the men. You want to be sure to retain your dignity, and what more do you want? If you play in the arena of politics you will be covered with political dust. If you grasp after too much you will lose everything.
 "I want to remind you that you have a great mission to perform. Every one of you has a personal and exclusive mission from God. Cultivate a deep sense of your dignity and responsi1oil- ity. Your mission lies largely in the domestic walks of life. If you em- brace the religious life that is a great mission from God. AS sisters you must not expect to preach except to those you come in contact with in the daily walks of life. dp the church women must be silent. That is not our fault, but the fault of an old man are places where you need not be si- lent. Woe be to society if it had to depend on the male sex alone; the world would go to the devil.''

SUNDAY SCHOOL WORK BEGINS

Now that college and the public
schools have opened, the Pullman
Sunday School Association has be-
gun to lay plans for an active year
in Sunday school work Among the
things that have been planned is a
religious canvas of the town to be
taken Saturday, October g
The first of the special features
to be given will be an address by
Mrs. c. e. Knapp, of Chicago, in the
Methodist Church on the evening of
Thursday, September 80.
Mrs. Knapp is very enthusiastic
Sunday school worker and a very in
teresting speaker Before her mar
riage to Prof. e. c. Knapp, the cele-
brated Sunday school specialist, she
was superintendent of the primary
department of the Ohio State Sun
day School Association, devoting her
entire time to the problems connect
ed with the primary department
work.
Mrs. Knapp will address two meet
ings. The first at p. m. for primary
workers and those interested in the
primary work of the Sunday schools

THE SUNNY SIDE OF BROAD
WAY"

That Nifty Song Show THE Sunny
Side of Broadway" is the announced
attraction for Saturday, September
25 at the Pullman Auditorium and
the local manager assures us that he
has secured this organization in its
entirety from it's successful run in
New York. The company is COM
posed of some forty players, each OF
whom has made a reputation for him
or herself during the run of the
piece. OF the stars which are head
ed by that Funny Hebrew Comedian
Max Bloom, little need be said. Their
unique personality, their grotesque
acting, the inimitable manner in
which they render their songs, the
graceful steps with which they
dance. all go toward making their
performance one of the most enjoy
able and pleasing on the stage.
OF the play itself, much has been
said, suffice that it is a vehicle for
the introduction of catchy music, ar
tistic marches, splendid choruses and
groupings and picture posings, the
like of which have never been seen In
musical comedy before.
The forty people have been select
ed for their adaptability to properly
portray the several characters which
have been assigned to them.

PULLMAN's WHEAT RECEIPTS
Largest Receipts of Grain This Sta.
Has Ever Had. Highest
Prices, Too

| That Pullman, and the nearby
warehouses will handle more grain
this year than ever before and that
the farmers will receive more money
for this years crop than for any
crop in the history of the country,
| is now certainty. Conservative
dealers place the receipts here at
from 80 to so per cent. more than
any previous year. Last year Pull
man, alone, received 225,000 bushels
of grain. This year it is certain to
pass the 800, 000-bushel mark and
may reach $4,000, according to the
estimates of local warehousemen who
understand conditions.
These figures are for the ware
houses inside the town limits and do
not include Whelan, Busbey, Kitz-
miller, Whitlow, Armstrong, Sun
shine and Garrison, all wheat sta
tons within five miles of Pullman
and from which wheat is shipped.
but is billed out from the Pullman
station. Then there is the tramway.
which takes wheat which always came
TO Pullman before ~ was built, and
that will handle 10000 to 100000
bushels this year, breaking all pre-
vious records by more than 25 per
cent. 1t is safe to say that the sta
! lions mentioned will handle from 25
to so per cent. more than last year or
any previous year.
The price is better than it has ever
been, and is fully 20 per cent. above
the average of the past 10 years.
Prices range from 70 1-2 to 85 cents
for wheat, with an average of proba-
bly, rs cents for the wheat grown in
this section. This means $76O,OOO
for 100000 bushels of wheat, and
is a conservative estimate of the
amount of money to be turned lose
among the farmers who trade in Pull
man, for single crop of wheat alone
But wheat does not represent the
entire receipts from the farms of
this section. There is a lot of fine
fruit, consisting of apples, pears,
prunes, plums and other products
OF the orchard. Almost every farm
err has lot of hogs, cattle, horses
or other livestock for sale, and there
is hay and other products. 1t is be-
lieved that one million dollars will
be paid to the farmers who trade in
Pullman for the products of their
farms this year.
Add to this amount that is spent
by the State and National govern
ment for the equipment, enlargement
and maintenance of Washington
State College, located at Pullman,
and the total will reach $1,50O,O00
that is to be paid out to people of
Pullman and vicinity for the year. 1t
is believed that these figures are con-
servative and are more likely to be
below than above the actual amounts,
but they give a fair idea of why Pull
man is admittedly the best town in
the Palouse country and why the
farmers living near here are all pros
porous, and why so few farms are
offered for sale.
