On June 10th the Wong Memo
rial Hall was opened as a part of
the equipment of the Church of
Our Saviour, Shanghai. This
seems somewhat barren state
mcnt, devoid of great significance,
unless the reader knows that the
Rev. X. G. Wong, in whose mem
ory the hall was erected, was the
first native convert of the China
mission that the Christian faith
took SO deep hold ON his life as
to make him offer himself for the
ministry and become our first
Chinese priest, and that in his
household. tranformed by the
light and teachings of Christiani-
ty. grew up the wife of the Rev.

ence of his noble Christian life

The reports from the surveyor
who was sent to Little Bend are
that it would cost about 16 million
.splunks" to develop the water
power there. That undoubtedly
included some fat Offices, also $40
day salaries, for somebody.
The Press would like to inquire,
in connection with the matter,
what do we pay our state and
county officials and legislators Sc
to $40 day and expenses for! Is
it merely to make us behave and
walk in the straight and narrow
path? We opine that was the
theory under which all of our
present state and national consti-
tutions we're framed. Is that a
right and proper view to take
nowadays of the right and duties
Of governmental powers! We
believe there are at least three
notable exceptions to this theory,
viz:
New York State which built the
Erie canal, for commercial pur-
poses, with but little, if any, fed
eral aid.
Illinois, with her Chicago drain
age canal, which is also being utll-
lied for commercial purposes.
Wisconsin, under the leadership
of u. S. Senator LaFollette.

gable streams, public highways.

about the report on that Little

E. P. THORNE, PUB. & Pnor'K

There arc a few people herea-
bouts who are laughing at the
story which some correspondent
got into the Minneapolis Tribune,
that the main street of Forest City
(Missouri ayenue) is being washed
into the Missouri riycr. II looks
a little as if some enterprising re-
porter had taken The Press squib
about our river front needing the
attention of somebody, a few
weeks ago, and made an associat-
ed press dispatch of it.
BY way of reply, The Press
would like to reiterate and repeat
again, that Forest City's main
street Is gradually being s!ulced
away and disappearing but in
this instance it is not the famous
Old Muddy that is guilty of the
friehtful crime. The cause of it
all is to be found in the food
waters that come down the hill
sides back of the town when it
rains or heavy snowfall melts in
the spring.
Our limited space prevents us
from making further comment,
which, however, is hardly neces-
sary. Those residents of Forrest
City who are not laughing realize
the situation the question with
the Others is. will they. or the Ole
Muddy, be laughing last!
