Whites name in the list OF nomins-

ciate Justices Of the Supreme Court of
the United States.
President Taft is still worrying about
his Supreme Court appointments The
refusal Of Senator La Toilette to go to
the White House to consult with the
President about the matter has not
added to the latter's peace of mind.
1t is known that the President fears
q Senate combination which will re-
ject any appointments he may make
and force the question of filing the
Supreme Court vacancies into the
next Congress and before a Senate
which will probably be controlled by
the Democrats. and the insurgent Re-
publicans. In order to avoid this calam.
ity, the President has submitted to 4
number OF senators q list OF the nine
men he is considering for the Supreme
Court. The list has been permitted to
reach the press. 1t Is believed tha.
the President is anxious not only to
placate the senators but is desirous Of

Methodist Episcopal Church, South, is taking a leading part in the evangelization of the country. We now have three annual conferences in the Mexican work, employing about eighty native ministers and about twenty male missionaries, and about a like number under the auspices of the woman'S board of missions. We have II schools, in which there are more than 5000 students. One of the largest mis- sion schools in the world is under the auspices of our church at Chi huahua. We have graduated from one of our schools four daughters of one of the governors of one of the States. We have one hospital, fairly equipped. located at Mon terrey, which is doing splendid work, treating in it's dispensary and hospital work about 10000 patients per annum.

Turn About Fair Play.

Down in the Senate recently long debate was precipitated by the meat boycott. There was much ignorance shown even by the learned senators, and finally Sena- tor Bailey of Texas said:
 Il sympathize with everybody in the world who must go hungry, but 1 have little sympathy with the city folks who for forty years have been charging the American farmers high prices for everything they wear, high prices for all the implements with which they culti- vate their farms, and now, when for one brief year the farmer seems coming into his own, cry out and attempt to organize a boycott. That is d dangerous weapon. It is d two-edged sword. Against it 1 warn the city folks of this Republic. If the farmers of the United States were to organize a boycott and agree to buy no more clothes or hats or shoes for twelve months, l wonder what would become of our cities? Farmers can better live without new clothes and hats and shoes than the city folks can with out bread and meat. 1 spent a large part of my time from 1893 to 1896 complaining against low prices, and I shall not spend much of my time now complaining be- cause they have advanced"
