st. John. n. 3, March 1S-If the
United States decides to impose the
maximum tariff on Canadian imports,
business in both countries will suffer,
IN the opinion of shippers and manu-
facturers. While a tariff war would
not seriously injure the lumber trade

lumber manufactured here is cut in
Maine and consequently re-shipped
Tree OF duty, the enforcement of the
maximum schedules would practically
stop all shipments of pulp from New

one of the owners Of the pulp mills
at chatham, said that if the maximum

the plant would be shut down. In his
opinion every American manufacturer
of pulp in Canada would be obliged to
purchase supplies IN European coun-
tries if they expected to keep their
mills running.
Mr.. keyes came here from Massa-
chusettS this week, because of the
threatened tariff war. He and other
Americans have ordered all pulp stored
in their warehouses to be shipped
across the line Immediately. Mr. Reyes
expects to go to Washington and with
Others bring pressure to bear on the

LINCOLN PROHIBITION
FAILURE, SAYS POWELL
EXcIseman Thinks that Effort TO
Make Capital Dry Town is
"a Mistake.

THE prohibition question is rather un-
satisfactory in Lincoln at the present time,
and things are not running as smoothly as
they should" said u. G, Powell, one of
Lincolns excisemen. Mr.. Powell is also
a rate expert for the State Railway com
mission. and is in Omaha with a force of
men making copies of the interstate ship
ments of freight handled by the Union
Pacific road.
I'VE hope to get things Strengthened out"
said Exciseman Powell but 1 do not be-
lieve that strict prohibition is the thing
for Lincoln. The people who insist upon
having intoxicating drinks will get them
somewhere and 1 would prefer that they
get it legally than to go to a dive and
pay an exhorbitant price for it. My plan
would be to license some reliable grocery
store and allow liquor to be sold in bottles
for home consumption as the traffic could
be regulated in this way and those who
feel that they can't get along without their
beer, could get it legally"

erected as the headquarters building. rhe
local delegates will argue that Omaha is

regard that any profession in the world
today compares with the ministry and It
requires the entire service Of man. The
minister ought not TO shirk contact with
any class OF people, not even the criminal
class.
The frontier days were the best of my
ministry and gave me the greatest salts

under the elder" in June, 1851 was re-
ceived on trial I'm 1865. was received in
fun in 1870 and has been in the effective
relation ever since. He is a graduate of
Brush college. which was familiar to all
old-time Methodist preachers. For eight
years Dr. johnson served churches in New
Jersey, at Hedding. Good Luck, Navesink,
Waretown and Medford.
ON March II, 1876, DR.. johnson arrived in
Tecumseh and the next day preached in
the Methodist church, which was on the
present site OF Arnup's store. 1t was a
rough-looking building with unattractive
interior and exterior, and the new pastor
from the east took for his text, For we
look not at the things which are seen, but
at the things which are unseen" On ar
irving in Tecumseh DR.. johnson inquired
for some Of the Methodists and was di-
rected to the home Of the late DR.. c. X.
Chubbuck, whose daughter, Miss Jennie c.,
later became the wife OF Dr. Johnson. The
former Chubbuck residence is now the home
of the Johnsons.
Two Years in Omaha.
After eighteen months in Tecumseh DIR.
johnson was transferred to Omaha where
he served two years, after which his ca
reer on the frontier began. He remained
there until 1888 and then returned to the
Nebraska conference He held pastorates
at Osceola, Friend, Table Rock, Chester,
Ohiowa and Holmesville, and was then
chaplain of the Nebraska penitentiary for
four and a half years, retiring in July,

next conference. DR.. Johnson received the
degree of doctor of divinity from Mallalieu
college at BARLEY in 1881 He has been
twice delegate from Nebraska to the gem
eral conference of the Methodist church
He is a prominent member of the Masons,
Odd Fellows and Grand Army OF the Re-
public.
Friends of DR.. Johnson frequently tell
him he bears a marked resemblance to the
late Henry Ward Beecher, and on one occa-
sion DR.. Johnson was approached by a man
in Nebraska town who inquired the
preachers name and then remarked, We'll,
you look so much like Uncle Sam thought
Ia like TO know your name"
Dr. Johnson is beloved by all who know
him and given credit for long life filled
with good deeds and great usefulness. He
has a kindly and sympathetic nature and
big heart which is ever ready to respond
to the needs of his fellowmen. He is a
friend to everybody and thousands bear
testimony, to his great worth. We'll done,
thou good and faithful servant" may Justly
be applied to him when his llfes work is
ended. s. w. THURBER.
