A NEW SCHEME

The Ladies' Aid society OF one oil
our local churches has adopted q
unique plan for raising money-ad
mittedly woman's field in church acti
vities. Under the conceit of the divis
ions of time, one lady assumes the
role of 1.-THE year." She promises q
sum of money and finds twelve women
who represent "the months" These
pledge 81 each, and each chooses four
women designated weeks" who are
willing to give so cents apiece, and
find seven women called days" who
will contribute rs cents each. In this
way both the work and expense are
distributed among many where, by or
binary money-raising methods, few
must bear all the responsibility.

Rev. A. W. SpoOner Bitterly Attacks
Pope and Catholicism.
Protestant Minister Declares Recent
Vatican Incidents Have Been Det-
rimentaI TO Roman Faith.

Foreseeing clash between Prot
estantism and Catholicism. because of the
recent Vatican episode. Rev A W.
Spooner, in a sermon last night. at the
Sixth Presbyterian Church. attacked the
Roman Church and warned Protestants.
The recent events connected with the
visits of former Vice President Fair
banks and former President Roosevelt
at Rome have resulted in forcing the
Pope further back into the seclusion of
the Vatican, he declared
He has lost more than ever the SYM
patty OF Christendom,' asserted Rev.
Mr.. Spooner. including many OF his own
priests and loyal adherents, while his au-
thority is recognized less and less even
IN Roman Catholic lands.
THE easus belli Is In substance this:
The sovereignty OF Christ in conjunction
with the individual conscience. or the
sovereignty OF the Roman Church-that
is. the Pope. with the individual con-
science left out OF the problem,
"Once armies were marshaled under
opposing standards; now the conflict has
become largely forensic. thank God. on
the one side the open Bible. and on the
other the dicta Of the papacy furnish the
basis for argument and appeal
'The world is swinging away from
Rome, and will never swing back again.
Look at the republics of Latin America.
and Cuba. and the Philippines. and
France. The air is impregnated with
the germs OF freedom, and even In italy,
the home of papacy. the Pope and the
King, are not on speaking terms.

House insurgents against the Wicker
sham speech
The Attorney General has no author
ity 10 read any one out Of the party
said Mr.. Madison. And certainly he
has no authority to read out the insur-
gents in Congress when the President
has said it is proper to exercise freedom
Of action inside the party in considering
matters Of legislation"
The disposition of the insurgents to con-
denim the Wickersham speech and praise
the President caused somewhat OF a po-
htical sensation here The insurgents
themselves are obliged to admit however,
that Mr.. Taft had no intention OF op-
posing the Attorney Generals views. It
Is merely a case Of the insurgents IN
terpreting Mr.. wickersham's speech as
an attempt to read the insurgents out Of
the party. while Mr. Taft holds no such
view OF his Cabinet officers effort
a good deal of comment was made also
on the strong declaration made by Repre-
sentative Longworth, President Roose-
velt's son-in-law, for the Taft administra-
ton. Mr.. Longworth declared in effect
that he would go down 10 defeat rather
than swerye an inch in his support Of
the Payne-Aldrlch law and the Taft ad-
ministration- He declared that he was
a Taft man through and through" Mr.
Longworth's speech is being interpreted
here as a certain indication Of the atti-
tude that Col. Roosevelt viii assume upon
his return 20 this country. II is the gen.
eral belief that RepreA -ntatlve LongWorth
knew Col Roosevelts views before de-
liyering his speech.
