Revival Meeting Closed

The most successful revival meet
ing that has been held in Medicine
Lodge for several years came to a
close last Sunday evening at the
Christian church with crowded
house and two more additions to the
church, making total of fifty-eight
people who came forward to confess
their faith in Christ or take fellow
ship in the church. Ait the last SER
vice of the revival, five more young
men were baptized.
TIE Christian church was very
fortunate in securing Geo. E. Lyon
of Topeka, Kansas, to lead them il
their short campaign. He is splen-
did speaker, a dignified, scholarly
christian gentleman and has many
friends in Medicine Lodge who will
be glad to welcome him back at any
time.
The church has had a very pros
porous and successful year under
the consecrated, earnest and faith
full leadership of the minister, Bish-
op NJ Hopkins, seconded by a corps
of faithful workers.
The Christian church now has an
unusually fine company of young
men and young ladies in its mem
bership The whole congregation is
full of hope, and look forward to
the new year with bright anticipa-
tions
On last Monday evening the old
members of the church gave a re-
ception to the new members. The
evening was filled with music. and
speeches and recitations. At the
close of the evening one of the
novel features of the evening was
the joining hands of the new MEM
bers and a few of the old members
which made a chain that reached
completely around the auditorium of
the church. They sang "Blest be
the tie that binds" short ex-
hortation was given by the minister
and an invitation was extended to
anyone to confess Christ or take
fellowship with the church, and two
more young ladies responded, max
ing a total of sixty.
Then followed a social hour in
which refreshments were served and
general happy time was had
by all. The evening will be remem-
bered by all.

The Barber County Index last
week published a statement at
length from County Attorney
Seward 1. Field, concerning the
matters that were stated in the last
campaign by the person who
thought he was Fields opponent
for the office Mr.. Field was re-elect-
ed to fill. 1t is amusing how these
'talso rams" take themselves so Sc
riouSly sometimes. isn't it? The
article of Stewards is a good one
states the facts-of the. case, as the
writer of this article knows per
sonally in at least a part of the
cases, and makes it plain to thu
reader just why the voters made ;
mighty good choice in the election
After all, the man who tries Il
make a campaign through the viii
fication of his opponent rarely, i
ever makes it win. The said ''alst
ram would do well to note this,f
of course he will be an aspirant TO
the same office two years hence, ,tha
is if he is still in good health. ant
the G. o. p. has no other timber
For the sake of clean campaigI
let's hope they viii make other ar
engagements Kansan.

if received. There has propably
never been an issue of the paper
that somebody was not disappointed
because of the omission of some
thing that should have appeared, but
we desire again to emphasize the
fact that the publishers are only
human. There are about 1900 peo-

5000 i'm Barber county. 1t is i'm
possible to personally call on al
these every week and spend a hal
hour with each one to learn every

viii Advise Appropriation Of Two Mil.

vors Building Of More Bat

Beverly, Mass.-Before leaving Bev.
erly for Boston Sunday night, Presi.
dent Taft announced that in his mes.
sage to congress in December, he will
recommend the appropriation of ST.
100000 to begin the work of fortify-
Ing the Panama canal. The president
also will recommend to congress that
provision be made for two new battle.
ships of the dreadnought type. Mr.
Taft does not believe that the economy
plans should preclude the construc.
ton of at least two battleships year
until such time as the Panama canal
is completed. He believes the canal
will have the effect of doubling the
efficiency of the navy and that after
1t is in operation the building of new
battleships can be cut down to one a
year.
The president will reach Washing.
ton next Sunday. The cabinet will be.
gin series of daily meetings on the
morning of Monday, the twenty-sixth.
Secretary Ballinger, it is said, will at
tend all the meetings and so far as
Beverly is informed, the Ballinger
case will not be taken up.
Economy in administration in all
departments will be one of the many
subjects considered by the cabinet.
Estimates for the coming fiscal year
also will be considered. The supreme
court appointments will be considered
with his cabinet advisers, although
the president has announced that he
will not make these appointments uR
til congress meets.
