Pastor Says This Is Shown by
the Pope-Fairbanks In
cident, Recently.
REPUOIATES THE CHARGE
THAT UNDUE PROSECUTING HAS
BEEN PRAcTIcED IN ITALY, Al
LARGE CONGREGATION HEARS
THE SERMON.

Rome Feb. 2S-The American Meth
odist church was crowded Sunday
the congregation including many
American visitors, who were attracted
by the subject of Pastor B. NJ. Triples
sermon. Why Methodism is in Rome. =
1t was in the American Methodist
church that former Vice President
Charles w. Fairbanks delivered the ad-
dress which shut him off from being
received in audience by the Pope, an
incident which has created much dis
cussion in Rome as well as in the Unit
ed States.
DR.. Triple said the Methodist church
was meeting with great success
throughout Italy. Such an inference
could be drawn from the extraordinary
action of the Vatican with regard to
the proposed visit of eX-Vice President
Fairbanks TO the Pope. and also from
the bitter resentment of Catholic cler-
gy.
AS Mr. Fairbanks spoke i'm the
American Methodist church. he said.
pit the charges preferred against Meth
Odism in Italy should be considered.
With reference to the assertion that
Methodists have no right to be in 1t
ally" said the preacher. the answer
is that We are here under the Italian
laws. guaranteeing religious freedom.
Another assertion by the Catholics
is that Methodism is not needed in 1t
ally. But Methodists believe that the
need is urgent, as the Catholic church
is always more efficient for good when
compelled to compete with aggressive
Professionalism. as evidenced conspic-
uously in America.
The Catholic church suffers embar-
rassment when it is required to salts
fy the ideals of great liberty-loving
republic contemporaIeously with heed
ing the demands of the Vatican. which
is still bound by the ideals of the mid.
die ages. This is proved by the eXpe-
rience of Archbishop Ireland, when he
was here a year ago studying the
Methodist propaganda.
"A great Lincoln banquet was ar
ranged by the American colony. Very
properly Archbishop Ireland was asked
to speak. Very properly, as patriot
ic American citizen. he accepted the in
vitation But suddenly the good
Archbishop recalled his acceptance.
The Vatican had forbidden him to
speak or attend the banquet because a
toast to President Roosevelt was fol
lowed Icy a toast to the king of Italy.
Italy needs Methodism because il is
no longer Catholic. except in name.
The charge of Methodist PROSECUTING is
foolish Their hands are full in deal
ing with unbelievers. This is proved

sponsible to some extent for the diff
culties of the water works. Another
cause for the shortage. he said, was
found in the awful waste of water.
Allow Wells to Flow.
Hundreds of flowing wells in Indiana
have been allowed to flow continuously
at their full capacity and the water
has run off into the streams, to be car
rled out to the sea. But where MANY
OF the wells flowed for years they are
now flowing no longer and it is neces-
sary to pump from them to get their
water. This is proof that the water
level is lowering all the time. Mr..
Brossman pointed to Marion as one
Of the most wasteful cities in the state
with its water supply. There is a
big we'll in Matter park at Marion
which flowed gigantic stream for
years, but in the last three or four
years it has stopped flowing entirely,
simply because the people did not try
to save the water and protect the
supply.
If this surplus water had been used
for irrigation instead of being wasted
it would have done a great deal of
good.
To show that the water level of the
state has dropped. Mr.. Brossman pre-
scented figures showing the conditions
at various Indiana towns These
places have water works, and the fig
ures presented show how much deep
err they have to pump their water now
than they did in other years. Here
scented them:
Some Examples Given.
kentland. the water level dropped
fortyeight feet in five years
Elwood, forty feet in twelve years.
Greensburg, forty feet drop in ten
years.
Indianapolis, thirty-five feet drop
in twenty years.
Muncie. twenty-eight feet drop, num-
Der of years not given.
Remington. eight feet drop in ten
years.
Marion, six feet drop in twenty
years
Butler. four feet drop in ten years.
Bourbon. three feet drop in eight and
half years.
Linton. some wells have dropped
thirty feet in six years
Kokomo. some wells have dropped
fifteen feet since 1895.
In speaking of the cause of the dis
appearance of water Mr.. Brossman
The Richmond palladium and sun-telegram. [volume] (Richmond, Ind.) 1907-1939, 1910-02-28

said: ITO what can the decrease in the
water supply be attributed: 1t seems
foolish to blame it on forest destruc-
ton, as in numerous places where the
water was considerably nearer the sur
face ten years ago, there We're no for
ests.
Il am Of the opinion that the
drainage of farm lands has much more
to do with the rapid conveyance of
rainfall than has the destruction of
the forests. There is no reason why
cultivated land growing various grains
corn, etc. should not help retain as
much water. ar nearly as much as the
ordinary woodland. But the water is
drained from the ground to the near
est stream as quickly as possible. The
writer has seen farms drained under
lying which was a splendid strata of
gravel. ordinarily taking care of the
greater portion of the water.
Not Versed in Farming.
Whether or not it is better to get so
much water away from such land as
quickly as possible, am unable to say,
not being versed in the art of farming,
but l am of the opinion that the drain
age of farm lands is an important fac
tor, if not the chief cause, of the reduc-
ton and the lowering of the under
ground water supply
Mr. Brossman did not offer any
remedy for this condition, however.
He merely pointed out what he believ-
ed to be the cause of the trouble and
left the matter with the water people
to figure out for themselves. But it
was apparent from the general run of
the discussion at the convention that
with the rapid disappearance of the
underground water supply must come
more general use of surface water
from streams, ponds and lakes for pub
lie use, and the water works people
and the experts present gave much at
tention to the best means of purifying
such water SO as to make it fit for use.

TAFT DRAWN INTO
BALL|NGER CASE;
SECRETARY ANGRY
Continued From Page One.)

general, before making any decision
as to Ballinger's conduct. When the
letter was issued generating the sec
rotary Of the interior, the president
stated that he and the attorney gen
eral had considered every phase of
the case, and found Secretary Balling-
er a friend of conservation and a
worthy public servant
The assurance with which Mr. Pin
chot has now charged Ballinger with
various degrees and deceit and wrong
doing have caused the greatest alarm
in administration circles. The con-
gressional committee may find itself
entirely helpless in the effort to con-
duct the hearing without bringing the
president into the limelight.
There are strong rumors in Wash
ington of other charges impending in
the cabinet besides the retirement of
Secretary Ballinger. 1t is considered
impossible for the president to retain
Mr.. Ballinger, unless the Pinchot
charges fail completely, and the testi-
mony thus far introduced does not
indicate that they will SO fail.
Wilson May be Drawn In.
Although the committee may not
find that the testimony is such as to
convict Mr.. Ballinger of willful mis-
management of his office, his connec-
ton with the administration has
brought it into such controversy that
his retirement is apparently certain.
The introduction of a second cab
met officer, Secretary Wilson, into the
controversy, is expected at any mo-
ment, through the effort of Mr.. Pin
chot to prove that his superior offer
ed no objection to the letter which
was written to Pinchot to Senator
Dolliver and upon which President
Taft based his charges of insubordin-
alton when he dismissed Pinchot from
the service.
The administration forces are far
from united upon the plan that Presi-
dent Taft has followed in support of
MS secretary of the interior. 1t is
understood that the president is as
greatly embarrassed by the condition
within his cabinet as by the external
developments of the investigation.

However, the Danger of Flood
Is Now Passed, Owing to

Not Continue.
RESIDENTS OF HAPPY

Early Sunday Morning There
Was a Few Inches of Water

night continued for several hours
longer it is estimated that the dam

plant that the water reached a high
er stage yesterday than it had in two
or three years. Although no damage
was done to the plant. the water
stood to a depth of several inches in
the boiler room and threatened to
reach the flood stage at one time.
Toward evening the residents OF
Happy Hollow began to pack their
household goods and prepare for a
move out, as it was expected at any
moment that the water would over
flow it's banks and cause great de-
struction of property in that neigh
borhood. However. the rain stopped
before the high water mark was reach
ed and no damage was done. SO far
as could be learned. The fastest
raise was last evening, between $50
and o'clock. when the water came
up eight inches.
Back to Normal Now.
Today the river has dropped back
to about normal, only being up a few
inches above the average this after
noon, it is said. The rainfall yester-
day was 1.34 inches, which is a record
breaker for this season, in respect to
amount for one day. 1t has been some

twenty-four hours time. With the
melting snow and heavy rain the river
soon got busy and reached the high

The rain of yesterday was a bless
ing in one respect, however, in that it
cleaned the streets and sidewalks of
the disagreeable slush and caused the
snow to disappear almost like magic.
The rainfall for the last week was OF

Friday were the coolest days of the
week, the mercury sliding down the

Nevada. Oct. S--rhe friends of Mr.
Tjernagle, of Story county. are said to
be preparing to publish a general
statement for circulation turnout the
state in regard to the status of his
case which last year caused consid-
cradle comment because of its pecul-
iarities. They Will make out a very
plain case of incarceration of Il man
innocent of the crime of which he Is
accused, and thus an Indictment of the
system under which our criminal code
is administered.
Mr.. Tjernagle was convicted and
given a sentence in prison for embeZ-
element, upon the evidence of an old
man named Seiverson, the embezzled
property being two or three notes
against the accused man. 1t seems
that the two had had various transact
lions and some years ago Tjernagle,
who was a lawyer. took up the notes
and gave his own note in return for
$500. Afterwards. financial reverses
having come upon him. he being I'M
able to make Immediate payment. he
was accused Of embezzement of the

Note is Found.
After the courts had got thru with
the case and as a last resort Mr.. Tier
magic and others went to the home of
Seiverson and obtained from him per-
mission to look thru an old trunk
which he had brought from Norway
and in which he kept his old papers.
The search for the missing note was
made in the presence of Stevenson and
it was found. When the old man saw
it he broke down and recalled then
having received it and admitted that
his memory had failed him on the
trial
When the matter came up for con-
sideration for a parole the old man
whose testimony had convicted Tier
maggie verified the story OF the finding
of the note. But it seems that TIER
nable, having had q variegated career,
had many bitter enemies and they have
insisted that the note was a forgery
There the mater rests: but Tjernagle
is serving time in prison While the note
he gave is held to be good and the
property said to have been embezzled
was his own.
The case has caused a great deal of
indignation among the Scandinavians
familiar with the case and it is said
that all the facts will be published by
the friends OF the victim.
