Changing . cowms.

From the Ohio State Journal.
The Bibls publication house in
Eneiand have made. some little
change in the text of the Script
ures in the shifting Of . comma,
which occurs in the Lords pray
sr. The text as It now is reads
Thy will be done in earth, as il
is in heaven" which is being
changed so that the comma ap-
pears alters the word done. SO
that the sentence reads. Thy
will be done, in earth as it is in
heaven.
or course this transition Of the
comma does not change the sense
Of the sentence, but it does seem
to emphasize the duty of making
a heaven in earth. But even this
change as slight as it is, would
hardly be justified if the Greek
original did not have the comms
after done.

Dow Expired Sunday Evening

Last Saturday night about 10
o'clock, Mrs. Lillian McFerron
living about three miles north
west of jackson. shot Henry
Dow in the leg just below the
knee. Dow was brought to the
city by his companion, Rheinhold
Loos. and taken to the Office of
DR.. j. j. Mayfeld. After an ex-
animation of the wouna, the DR..
called in Drs. r. T Henderson
and B. W. Hays. After examin-
ing the wound they decided to
amputate the limb, which they
did. but owing to the loss of
blood and general physical con-
dition he died next morning at
8 o'clock.

were under the influence of
liquor, and one of them pro-
posed that they 60 and call on

from a friend. She refused to
let him in but he insisted, and,
it seems eventually got into the
house. Dow then came up and
wanted in also Nbut she refused
and warned him to. keep away.
He insisted and she then got a
single barreled shot gun and
opening the door stuck the gun
through the opening and warned
him to not try to come in the
house. 1t seems he grabbed the
gun and she then shot; but says
she did not shoot to kill him.
The coroner held and inquest
Monday afternoon. After hear
ing the evidence of Mrs. Meier
ron and Loos, the jury found
that Dow died from the effects
of a gunshot wound inflicted
Saturday night.
Mrs. McFerron's bond was

GOMPERS' TESTIMONY
FOR THE TARIFF.

FOR THE TARIFF.
Mr.. Gompers, president of the
American Federation of Labor,
made a visit of some months in
Europe, where he investigated
trade conditions. and as he had
no party interests to serve, what
he says Ia entitled to great
weight. Speaking Of the cost
Of living In the United States, as
compared with European coun-
tries, he says: IF the immigrant
Aoythiss ss0ntry is Wiling .t0ssnl
tinue living here on the same
level he was obliged to accept in
his native land he can find it for
the same money" That is the
truth. In fact, on the same lev
el, he can live for less in the
United States. while his wages
will be several times greater.
This is the reason that a million
or more immigrants come to this
country annually. Mr.. Gompers,
in his report to the Federation of
Labor, says: Living is cheap to
the wage worker because he does
without what in America soon
becomes necessity to him food
in good quantity and quality,
presentable clothes and a com.
fortably furnished home, and ir
general a larger and freer life.
Meat is usually from Is to 1O(
per cent higher than in the
United States. The immigrant
coming to America. finds that II
he can buy in quantity (and II
cases where he need not) hi
flour. fuel. potatoes, oil. sugar
coffee, salt-the essentials fol
his plain table-all cost less thar
they ordinarily do in the lant
he left. The chespness ant
abundance of many kinds O
fruit. and of 4. our me3on AMI
tomatoes is a surprise to him. 4
Mr.. Gompers goes on to poin
out the things that are oheape
in this country than in Europe
cotton clothing, shoes, newspa
pers. amusements, education. etc
He says in no. city did he fin,
rents any cheaper, wages con
sidered, than in the United Stat
es, while an American would b.
surprised over how little tn
European renting wage-worke
, gets for his money" AS b
wages, Mr.. Gompers tells wit
. surprise of the demands mad
, at the Bgitish Trade Union Con
gress at Ipswich where it wa
stated that railway workme
got &.25 a week, agriculture
laborers IL shillings ($2.8)
builders labors 8 cents an hour
and SO on. And yet there ar
hundreds of thousands of work
: men seeking employment in tn
} United Kingdom even at sue
pitiable wages.
; Why this enormous differene
from the wages paid in the Uni
ed States? Britain is a free-trad
country and the United States
under a protective tariff. Ths
is the cause of the difference
wages. And yet the Democrat
; and insurgents want to reduC
American workmen to the Eur,

The nominees of the Republi-
cans for congress and for the
legislature will meet with the
new state committeeman at the
Capitol September 13---second
Tuesday in September, - the
law directs-to formulate q state
platform. Until that il done

not be officially determined. The
nominees and state committee
men Of other parties will also
meet in convention at the Capt.
tai that day. All platforms will
then be written and fled with
the Secretary Of State before 8
O'Clock, p. M. and will be pro-
mulgated by that official l-unless.
in his judgment. the Republican
platform may be declared uncon-
stitutional and useless and its
publication an unnecessary ex-
pense to the taxpayers.
The chairman of county COM
mittees, who are. ex-officio. men,
bers Of district committees, will
meet in their respective con-
gressional district August 16, as
required by law, and select two
members Of the state committee.
The members from the three dis

two ,.naemAses from the Kansas
City district will BE- selected by

the committee, however. They
will have active charge Of the
campaign, with headquarters al
St. Louis, doubtless where the
State Committee has maintained
permanent headquarters since
, the campaign of 1904. There
will be no formal opening of the
campaign of 1910 till the new
state committee is organized ant
the platform adopted. Mean
while county and district com
mittees will be busy arranging
meetings and planning an ag
gressive fight in behalf of can
didates for congress. for Judge
ships. for the state senate ant
for representative, and for coun
ty Offices, and the party nomi
nees all over the state are ex
pected to get busy and keel

The decision of the Supreme
court in the Roach mandarin
case sustained Roach in refusing
to file the petitions for a vots
on the proposed senatorial re
districting amendment to, th'
constitution. In his opinion
Chief Justice Fox went yer.
deep into the legal issues in
