E. l.. Gaskill visited his sisters

H. H. Butler returned the last
of the week from trip to Kansas

A more live or wide-awake

in the west.

Fowler Tuesday on his way to

Geo. Reiss was among those
who put their subscription year
to the good last week.
John Elliott went to Salina last
week as delegate to the Modern
Woodman State meeting.
About every six weeks boost
ter club is organized in most
towns and one rousing meeting
is held. Meade has kept her
Club alive long time.
Some towns in this part of the
country are larger than Meade
but none have as live a bunch of
boosters, and none are are as
busy trying to be greater.

Miss Laura Mackey, who has
been visiting Miss Mae Maple
and other Beaver friends the past
week, returned to her home on
the Cimarron Tuesday.-The
Beaver Herald.
D. M. Mackey is one OF those
prompt paying subscribers who
remember when their year is up
and always call and pay a year
ahead. He was in Saturday and
made good his record.
J. p. Hatten of Hatten, Okla

Brother Buis was in from the
ranchthis week and in talking
with a News reporter said he
was township treasurer of a
township just over the line in
Oklahoma which has 500 in the
treasury. This is something a
little out of the ordinary.
Just why so much attention is
paid to crops which at best only
promise a fair crop are raised
in preference to those which are
certain to yield heavily is hard to
understand. Whenever our far
mers depend more on raising
hogs and the sure crops to feed
them then the future of the coun-
try will no longer be in doubt.
The Fowler Gazette says the
Meade News and the Globe "are
making much over the fact that
the town has put large electric
light on the water tower at that
place" Guess if Bro. Stanton
knew how easy it was for us to
hunt up the Ratchet and chop the
kindling on a dark night he
would not blame us for blowing
so much about the light.
The Southwest Trail devoted
considerable space last month to
dairying. The Trail has made
a study of conditions here and is.
qualified to speak on the subject.
AT the present price of dairy
products and hogs there is no
earthly reason why Meade coun-
ty farmers should not make
twice the money they are now
making if they will only diversity

in large numbers for Pendleton to
hear Evangelist Holmes in his SER
mon on The Holy Spirit in Regener-
alton"
Mr.. Holmes has been using a large
chart from night to night to show
the personality of the holy spirit and
his relation to God and Jesus and his
message last night was an effort to
show the work of the Holy Spirit in
mans conversation.
The speaker pointed out and gave
proof texts to show that "regener-
alton" is a counterpart or copy of
/ generation" that the physical is
picture of the spiritual" In this pro-
cess of turning to God Mr.. Holmes
pointed cut how that the spirit had
part in every step of the journey,
and how that he used the word of
God to accomplish his purpose. In
speaking of baptism, he pointed out
again how the physical was pic
, ture of the spiritual, when the ply
steal man is buried in the physical
element (water), it is a picture of the
burial, the overShadowing, the over
whelming, the immersing of the spirit
or soul of man in the Spirit of God.
This constitutes Christian baptism
when the act is proceeded by obedi-
ence to the other requirements of the
scriptures. This double element" in
| baptism corresponds to the two-fold
natpre of man, and there is no bap-
tism in water separate and apart from
baptism in the holy spirit, nor no
baptism in the holy spirit separate
and apart from water, otherwise
/ Paul would be contradicted when he
states positively, "there is one bap-
tism." In Christian baptism is found
the new birth" of which Jesus spake,
but life is said to begin Immediately
upon the belief" of the word; John
says, " Whosoever believeth that
Jesus is the Christ, is begotten of
God''-not born or God" Following
this spiritual "begetting" comes de-
velopment in repentance and confess
sion of Christ and birth in Christian
baptism. This is the process of re-
generation sometimes called CONVEX
sion.
The evangelist closed his sermon
by showing that God had done His
part and that all now depended upon
us accepting His invitation and yield
ing obedience to His laws.
There will be services tonight
Sunday is to be Mothers Day" and
a big rally will be held in all de-
partments of the work in her honor.

Salmon Leaped Into Boat.

A curious thing happened at Dun

few days ago. The TUNNEL was in
high flood and Stewart Fergusson's
oarsman went down early in the
morning to see to the safety of one of
the boats, riding in the river at the
end of a long pole and about Is feet
from the bank.
There had been lot of rain during
the night and the boat had about nine
to ten inches of water in her, in the
middle of which foated fine, almost
clean, salmon of about twenty pounds.
1t was still alive, though much eX-
hausted, as the water had become
quite deoxygenized. 1t had leaped
3nto the boat during the night. The
sides of the boat are quite fifteen
inches above the water line. The sal
mon soon revived and swan away aft
er being put into some clean water

TAFT IS BROUGHT
IN LORIMER CASE
Paynter Hints at Effort to Boil
Ster Administration.
INVASION OF SENATE RIGHTS
Kentuckian Describes Senator Lori
mer as "Man of Perfect Morals"
and Gives Praise to Lee
O'Neil Browne.

Washington.-Th first mention OF
the reported interest taken by
President Taft in the case OF Sena-
tor Lorimer was brought into the de-
bate by Senator Paynter of Kentucky,
who was a member of the subcommit-
tee which investigated the charges of
bribery in connection with Mr.. Lori
mer's election.
Before taking up testimony in the
case Mr.. Paynter took occasion to say
that he did not appear as the apoll-
gist of bribe givers or bride takers"
Declaring the question to be judi
cial one. Mr.. Paynter said:
Il did not approach the investiga-
ton with any feeling or thought that
the country demanded victim to ap-
pease its wrath, or that any member
of this body, if such a demand was
made, would subsequently yield to it,;
neither did 1 suppose that sacrifical
offering would be made of the accused
senator to satisfy a popular demand,
nor did suppose it was necessary to
do so to give character and standing
to the administration"
Having brought the asident into
the discussion, the Kentucky senator
professedly undertook to eliminate
him from it. Referring to the fire.

Senator Paynter.

quent assertion in the public press that
the president is using his personal, if
not his official, influence against Mr..
Lorimer, Mr. Paynter said he desired
to resent the imputation against the
president.
Il have had" he said, IAN exalted
opinion of the presidents character,
and have believed that he has chosen
wisely in many of his selections for
judicial positions. He has been a
Judge and knows the rights and liber-
ties of the people are only safe with
an honest and Independent judiciary.
THE president is a great lawyer and
knows that the constitution divided
our government into branches and
that it was intended that one branch
should not invade the province of an
other. The president knows that the
senate is made the judge of the cleo
ton Of its members; therefore, the
constitution denies to the executive
and judicial branches of the govern
ment the right to determine who is en-
titled to a seat in this body Certainly
the president would not attempt to vio-
late the spirit, if not the letter, of the
constitution which he has promised
to obey. Surely he does not want to
10 that
Declaring that such a course on the
part of the president would be zeal
amitous and humiliating," Mr.. Payn-
ter said the president could as we'll
advise the Supreme court as to the
tenor of its decisions in the Standard
Oil and tobacco trust cases as to I'M
dertake to influence the senate's
course with reference to its action for
Or against Mr. Lorimer.
Referring to Senator Beverage and
the minority report he presented, at
lacking the Lorimer election, Mr..
Paynter remarked:
IF he committed an error in the
preparation of the minority report, I
think he is entirely eXcusable The
senator evidently had to prepare it in
great haste because he and another
distinguished senator, Mr. Owen from
Oklahoma, were in a mad rush, in a
frantic effort to strike the first blow
in this contest"
Mr. Paynter defended the character
Of Senator Lorimer, who he said was
"a man of perfect MORALS and also
spoke in terms of praise of Speaker
Shurtleff of the Illinois house of rep
resentatives and State Senator Lee
O'Neil Browne, the Democratic leader,
who gave their support to Lorimer.

TAFT PROHIBITS
FIGHT BY HAITI
San Domingo is Protected by Presl'
dents Acknowledgment
Order Issued.

Washington.-Tha there must be
no war between Haiti and San Domin-
go was the peremptory order issued
by President Taft to the American
minister at San Domingo.
This is the first time that such an
order has ever gone forth from the
White House. The order is made pos
sible by the fact that the United
States, by guaranteeing San Domin-
COS debt to European nations, made
of that republic a protectorate OF
this government and, consequently
gave the United States the power to
tell Haiti that she cannot interfere
with American political institutions
in San Domingo.
San Domingo and Haiti have been
quarreling for over a year about
frontier line San Domingo claimed
the right to extend one of her roads
across the traditional border and this
brought up the old question of the
frontier. Both nations armed for the
conflict and sent troops to the scene
of trouble.
The president offered his good Of
fees. There were some perfunctory
acknowledgements of the favor but
the armies remained in camp.
The following is a close paraphrase
of the telegram sent by order of the
president to Minister Russell at San
Domingo:
THAT as there appears to be in
reality no essential difference be-
tween the proposal of the Dominican
and Haitian government to reach an
amicable adjustment of their present
boundary dispute, this government
cannot believe that the minor points
regarding the maintenance of the
status quo and the cessation of the
work on the road pending the settle
ment can be regarded as sufficiently
important to warrant any delay what
ever in the drawing UP of suitable
articles for the submission of the
matter to arbitration and can far less
be regarded as of sufficient import
ance to warrant any further talk by
either party of resort to arms
THE American government there
fore feels that the two governments
should at once unite in framing
compromise providing for the early
adjustment of this question. Mean
while the status quo should be main
tanned, troops should be withdrawn
from the border and work upon the
road should cease until the final set
Element Of the oIaStion -
Secretary Knox calls attention to
the special interest of this govern
ment in the Dominican government
and it's obligations under the conven-
ton of 1907 and also to the peculiar
interest taken in the welfare of both
the Dominican republic and the re-
public of Haiti saying that this gov
eminent will be glad to exercise it's
friendly good Offices to facilitate such
an arrangement.
