Testing Ministers.

England, the original home Of John
and Charles Wesley. and many another
STURDY and pious Methodist, is getting
'fussy' about the standard of learning
and piety which is required for a
Methodist clergyman. Today a young
preacher needs more than "a call from
Cod In addition to loud and clear
call he must have some Biblical
lore, command of good and flowing
English, and a devotion to the cause.
Which is not easy to cast down. OF
ISL candidates, who were presented
there were only 81 accepted without
condition at late examination, and
"a were rejected without any prospect
of ever gaining parishes of their own
Eleven of those who passed had re-
ce'ved university educations, which Is
less than 30 per cent
The years are not old when il was
the belief in many Methodist circles
that classical education, while tcon-
venient. was not absolutely needful for
a minister. Give a young man a GER
tificate of good moral character,
signed by three church members. and
fit him out with license to preach. /"
and the world is open to him. MANY

through great tribulations," were Won

Century plants have many uses; some

Pulque is sold at three 10 five cents a

Evidence of Success.
Maine Earner.O

It is always an evidence that a
Grange is enterprising and successful
when it takes up the discussion of
pertinent and timely topics. for as we
understand it one of the prime objects
of the Grange is to give the members
the opportunity of profitihg by each
others experiences and knowledge,
and how can that object be better at
tanned than by just such discussions.
The Grange is above all other places
the place where the farmers get to-
gether to talk over their mutually in
teresting affairs, and it is there that
they can be most helpful to each 9TH
|er.
1t is very appropriate here. there
fore. to urge the farmers to give ac-
tive support to their Oranges. AL
though the Grange is strong in Maine
probably nowhere is the organiZa-
ton strOnger-there are yet a good
many farmers who do not claim MEM
bership in it, These cannot help re-
ceiVing some of the benefits of the
good work which the Grange is carry
ing on in the interest of agriculture
and the agriculturists in general, and
we believe that every farmer should
therefore feel it not only his duty but
his privilege to become a member.

and other Dissenting" denominations
IN England owe much to the unplaced
or itinerant clergyman, who traveied
from place to place in the early dafS,
and literally 'Iived off the country.
But the new minister TO preside over
the new church must have culture &8
well as burning elOquence. In sense
he must dress and comport hinseii
to fit his position. The days of EiiJah
and Isaiah and John the Baptist ar"
past No longer can minister cas-
ont the germs of sin from the human
soul, and carry his glad tidinss IN
garments laden with bacilli of typhoid
or tuberculosis. The preacher must
correspond to his environment. He
who breaches cleanliness must himself
be clean. He who would educate the
people must carry the ability TO edu-
cate and to uplift along with him.

(Machias Republican,


According to the complete official re-
turns of the vote for governor ana
congressman in the 3rd Congressional
District, Congressman Edwin {. Bur
leigh made the most remarkable show
ing of any candidate on the Republl-
can ticket. He ran well ahead of ms
ticket in nearly every city and town
in the district Congressman Burleigh
ran ahead of his ticket in the whole
district 1871 votes. 1t has been claimed
that Mr.. Gould's plurality was 1000,
but his actual plurality is 1903. Mr..
Burleigh is certainly to be congratu-
lated on the fine showing he made.
His defeat is a glorious one for him.
ANY man who runs ahead of his ticket
as Mr.. Burleigh did and is defeated
should be proud of his defeat. Con-
gresham Burleigh has always been
strong with his constituents and III

remarkably large number of voters

A worlds record for street car
travel was established in New York
the passing year. 1,000.O00.00O people
covered 1000, 900. 600 miles in the
twelve months. At a mile "a minute
rate for one passenger. this journey
would consume $500 years. and would
girdle the earth 10000 times. So
enormous is the transportation ser
vice of this great city of nearly 81
100000 population. that an adequate
conception of it is almost impossible
for an outsider. but the figures just
made public go to show that a record
has been made which no other city is
likely to surpass for many years to
come. The subway accounts for $685.
