gardfng them
Representative Ollie NJ. james of
Kentucky. who was elected one of the
Ballinger investigators against deter
mined opposition, although the other
nominee of the Democratic caucus,
Henry T. Rainey, was defeated, was
born in Kentucky in 1871, received an

was admitted to the bar at the age

times been chairman of the Kentucky
delegation in Democratic national con
ventions and is now serving his fourth
term in congress. The only objection
of the Republicans against making
Mr.. James a member of the Ballinger
Investigating committee was that he
Is bitter partisan, while the charges
against Rainey were that he had in
troduced the Panama resolutions.
President Taft made no secret of the
fact that he opposed Rainey for this
specific reason. The Democrats re-
torted that when an administration
was being investigated it should not
choose the men-to investigate it. But
all this only indirectly concerned Ollie
James, who says he wants but the
truth and will do his best to find it.
He also AYERS that If he is pro-
nounced partisan the fact will reflect
the greater credit on the administra-
ton If the committee should give it
a clean bill of health.

Who is What?

When W. II. VanSlyke, cashier of
the merchants and Miners bank at
Chelan, WASH, married Miss Mary b.
Baker, also of that city, few days
ago, a peculiar martial relation was
formed. The bride is sister of Mrs
j. B. NanSlyke, second wife of the
father of the bridegroom, and there
fore is an aunt to her own husband
Mrs. w. H. VanSlyke's sister is now
her mother-in-law and her father-in-
law is also her brother-in-laW. Mrs
]. b. VanSlyke is step-m othehr to w.
II. VanSlyke, also his sister-in-laW
and his aunt-in-law. j b. VanSlyke
is a brOther-in-law to his son and is
also his father-in-law. Some one has
figured out that if any children are
born to the couple their grandfather
will also be their uncle and their
aunt would become their step-grand-
mother, their father would be their
step-cousin and their mother would
become their great aunt-in-law. Elk.

Total L. :. Foreign Trade

Washington, July 1.-THE totaI
value of the foreign commerce of the

made public by the departments of
commerce and labor today.
The total imports were valued at
$1,557S54,S54, exceeding those of
1907 the previous high record year.
by more than $128,000,O00. The to-
tai exports We're exceeded only by the
year 1907 and 1905 and were valued
at $1,744,966,203, falling S136.o0O,-
600 behind 1907 and $116,Oo0.OOO
below 1908. They exceeded 1909,
however, by $S2,OO0,OOO.
\ rapid decline of excess exports
is evident. They exceeded imports by
$1S7,O00,000 as against an excess of

Shall the Bible be Restored to Our
Public Schools?

DR.. Hayes occupied the pulpit at
the union services held at the Chris
tan church last Sunday evening. His
sermon was a strong plea for the
Bible as a means of true culture and
development
After listening to the sermon
one can but wonder if the high
schools and colleges of today are pro-
ducing a fully developed, rounded
character, or whether our children,
reared not only without the Bible
as an influence in their culture, but
with the stigma resting upon it of
being unworthy of a place even in
our school libraries, are not being alb
normally developed, all attention be
ing given to intellectual and physi-
cal culture, while the moral and spir-
itual remain undeveloped. Has not
this placing the ban upon the Bible
much to do with the immortality and
spirit of irreverence which permeates
our halls of learning?
