The Vinita daily chieftain. [volume] (Vinita, Indian Territory [Okla.]) 1902-1913, 1910-11-08

The ministers of this country are an
honest and hard-working body of men,
but as a class they possess one CON
spicuous vice: the vice of intolerance.
The ministerial alliance of St Louis
recently gave an exhibition Of this
spirit, passing resolutions condemna-
tory to the opponents of prohibition
which remind one of the charges made
against the Chieftain by a Vinita cler-
gyman. But there is at least one min
lister in ST. Louis Of a different type
a bigger, broader man-Dr. Albert n.
Jordan, Of the old First congregational
church, who says some things about
the action Of the ministerial alliance,
which ought to be profitable reading in
Vinita.
However the vote may carry on
Tuesday" said DR.. Jordan in his SER
mon last Sunday morning, there has
come an untold amount of harm on
account of the acrimonious and shame
full interchange of personalities that
has taken place.
For a group Of men, be they min
listers of the Gospel of our Lord Jesus
Christ, to take such an action as was
reported by the press as the action Of
the ministerial alliance against some
Eof the best and worthy citizens of this
city who. though they may differ with
them in opinion, do not thereby lose
their right to be treated as Christian
gentlemen-such an action is far
cry from that spirit which possessed
our Lord Jesus"

this is Election Day-the day when
the people have their say regarding

are the supreme court of appeal in all
political causes. The politicians. the
stump speakers and the newspapers
have argued their eases and submitted
their briefs. Tomorrow morning the
Judgment of the court will be known
Meanwhile we cannot help meditating
little on the threadbare theme of the
responsibility of the millions OF as
soclate justices Of that great tribunal.
For that is what each citizen ia. An

election in large city there are votes
enough purchased to be serious fac
tor in the result. But these men who
sell their votes are men of low, ignor-
liant and brutal type. Better educated

gives them thrill of genuinely Phar-

these suppositions is true, you have
nothing on the bribe-giver or the bribe

The leafless trees stand bare

That hangs upon the heavens edge
And seems so slow
So loath to pass away.
In far blue deeps above the slender

Wait for the coming of the choir

With which the day-long strife of

Are cleansed away.

IGNORANT OF SIGNALS

Twenty motorboats, which were
speeding down Newark Bay Saturday
afternoon. were held up and inspected
by the customs house officials, Fred
crick Freed, Theodore Burgher and
Henry Lemassena, of Newark. The
life-preservers, lights, 1re-fghting APP
Fsratus. etc, that are required in the
laws recently passed by Congress we're
found to be very much in evidence.
One thing the majority of the motor
boat operators were lacking disturbed
the inspectors very much. Very few of
them seemed to be acquainted with the
meaning of the signals given by whis-
tie upon the water. Deputy Collector
Freed declared that those who have
not a full knowledge of ship signals
should not be allowed to operate boats.
1t often is the cause of a misunder-
standing that results in a collision or
q narrow escape from one. Mr.. Freed
told the men ne found ignorant in this
respect to call at the customs office
over the postoffice building, where they
could procure copies of the new laws.

GOES THROUGH WHIRLPOOL
RAPIDS IN M%OTORBOAT.
Capt. Larsen First Man to At
tempt Dangerous Feat.

NIAGARA FALLS, Sept. 19.-The
fact that a motor boat can safely pass
through the whirlpool rapids and whirl-
pool was demonstrated by Captain
Klaus Larsen with his little launch,
the Ferro, yesterday. He came to
grief between the whirlpool and Lew
iston, however, for as the engine
would not work she drifted into an
eddy near Niagara University and
there. when the boa was pulled ashore,
Larsen was helped out and after being
placed aboard an electric car was taken
to Lewiston. where was admired by
many for his daring voyage through the
gorge in n launch IS feet long and 5
feet beam.
The Zorro seemed in fine condition.
Leaving the dock Larsen sent her to
midstream and then headed straight
for the rapids. She took the waves in
fine shape. Those who witnessed this
part Of the trip gained confidence,
feeling certain he would make the pool
, safely. Like a hot out OF a gun the
boat and its human occupant were
hurled into the pool. Larsen had hoped
to turn right out into the outlet, but
In this he failed and he was around to
the Canadian sid on the currents, but
found time to wave his arms to people
on shore. He was afraid of the drift
wood and quickly rushed the boat
across the maelstrom toward the out
let, through which he passed enroute
to Lewiston.
The worst half of the trip
was over, but for some reaso
the engine ceased to work and after
going a mile or so lie found himself
drifting in an eddy. AS he had no
oars ana the engine was out of com
mission, he accepted help from shore
and landed.
