AUTO AND WAGON MEET
Narrow Escape For Several People
in Accident.

A collision occurred about $3.50
Monday evening at the corner of First
avenue and Seventh street between an
automobile driven by Walter Johnson
and one of Lemp's beer wagons driv-
en- by Jim Green. The beer wagon
was overturned and big noise fol-
lowed the impact, but fortunately no
one was injured and the vehicles not
badly damaged. The F. w. Glaze
family came near being in the mix
up, and it was avoiding the Glaze rig
that caused Johnson to hit the wagon.
The Glaze rig was going south on
Seventh street and the beer wagon
north, both turning into First avenue
at the same time. The automobile
was going east on First avenue and
was headed squarely at the Glaze rig.
The horse stopped and the automo-
bile was turned just in time to miss
the Glaze rig, but gave the beer wag-
on a "side-swipe." The accident was
heard all over the neighborhood and
a big crowd was soon on the scene.
1t was close call for all concerned.

Newton, June 14.-Special: The ac-

recent primary election everything
went for Carroll. The election was a
quiet affair, less interest being taken
at this election than at any previous
one. The vote was very light. 1t is
thought the reason the majority was

'ALDB|CH CLAIMS
BEVER|DCE'S PLAN
Denies Indianan Originated Tar
if Commission Plan.
DENIES BEING STANDPATTER
Rhode islander clinss to Assertion
Despite Opposition of Several
Senators-Debate Ensues
to Disgust of Hale.

Washington, June Ex-senator Bev.
eridge of Indiana is to be deprived OF
the credit so generally given him OF
having forced into the tariff law the
provision for tariff commission.
During the consideration of the tar
if bill in the senate and in conference
those closely watching proceedings
were of the impression that Mr. Bever,
idge was leading the fight for a com.
mission and that practically single
handed and alone he combatted Mr.
Aldrich and the standpatters who
were in control of the bill.
Senator Aldrich would correct what
he asserts is an erroneous impression
and startled the senate with the as.
sertion that to him and not to Mr.
Beverage belonged the honor of be.
ing the originator and best friend OF
the tariff commission provision.
Denies Being Standpatter.
Senator Aldrich declared his resent,
ment of the assertion that he is a
standpatter. He reviewed his thirty
years record in the senate to sustain
his contention that he has always
been in favor of tariff revision when
conditions require. He admitted that
he recognized the fact that conditions
in this country are constantly chang.
ing, but he was firm in, his assertion
that the present tariff law is the best
protective measure that was ever
passed.
Senator Beveridge stood by his rec
ord of a three years battle for a tar
if commission and called Mr.. Aldrich
to witness his recital of the details of
developments which resulted in the
senate amendment in the hope of re-
freshing his memory and forcing him
to revise his claims. Mr.. Aldrich, how
ever, insisted that the provision which
went into the senate bill was written
by him.
Many Are Surprised.
Those who listened to the assertion
and were familiar with the hard fight
made to force tariff commission into
the bill were astonished, and the pro-
duction of the original drafts by Mr..
Beverage to prove that he had pro
posed, fought for and finally obtained
the commission did not shake Mr..
Aldrich.
A general discussion of the tariff
was precipitated greatly to the dis
pleasure of Senator Hale of Maine,
who asserts that never before was a
tariff law in its infancy-within year
of it's passage-so discussed as the
present law.

OTHER SUMS FOR OTHER WORK

Camp Meeting Foots up $33,do6--

| 4 . Il a
Regardless of the difficulty which
arose over the compelling of Prof
Shaw to resign his position as dean
and professor of the Biblical depart
ment of the o. II. u. the camp meet
ing has been a great success finan
cially. During the session which was
held in the large tabernacle a total OF
49,, 400 has been raised for the work
of the National and Iowa Holiness as
sociations to carry on the work in
the different departments.
A great step forward was taken al
the business meeting of the National
association, when new Foreign Mis-
sionary society, auxiliary to the Ma
tional association, was organized to
carry on the work in the foreign
fields. The field chosen for the com
mencement of the work of the new
society has been China. Four mis-
sionaries have been appointed to this
field, namely Mr.. and Mrs. Cecil
Troxell and Mr.. and Mrs. Cowman
The two teams have been in this field
before and for this reason great re
suits will be looked for from them
To carry on this work $1,000 was rails
ed during the meetings. ..E@
The largest amount of money was
raised on University Day, at which
time total of $4,000 was subscrib
ed to the University. While many
forecast bad outlook for this institu
ton, the Holiness people in general
give, and tn large sum was almost
unsolicited. The Holiness people
say that this institution is here to
stay and upon the doctrines of Holt
ness, which it is established, will be
the foundation upon which it stands
Prospects even at this time are eX
.cellent for next year, and the many
evangelists who were in attendance
at the meetings, claim that they have
many young people who will come tc
the school, because of the influence.
In order to carry on the work of the
National and Iowa Holiness associa
tons sums were solicited and for this
work $4,000 was subscribed. These
two organizations are planning on
very extensive work this year towards
a greater movement towards the holi
ness doctrines. Camp meetings are
being held in all parts of the United
States and more camp meetings will
be held this year than ever before
The movement is growing and money
is needed to carry on the work.
On Sunday evening over $206 was
raised for the support of Mr.. and Mrs
Ihaiah Reid, of Los Angeles, Cal. Boil
have been in the Holiness work fol
several years and they are now grow
ing old and need assistance. While
they were unable to take part in the
work they were very active and give
literally to the cause.
The money pledged for the schoo
is for the erection of a new and ade
uuate chapel building to be erected
as soon as the arrangements can b.
made.
A movement that meets with popu
lar favor had been started for thu
building at University Park of
home for superannuate evangelism
workers. The plan meets with mucl
favor and when the plans are read.
and the details have been worked on
the money will be ready and forth
coming.
