THE CLERGYMAN'S FEES.
He Earns Them As Truly As Any
Other Professional Man.

Is IL all right TO talk of "theologic
tips? Would you call a lawyer
fee tip. or a doctors fee a tip? A
clergyman is not employed to give
his time and services to anybody who
asks him, but to those who belong TO
his congregation, and pay the ex-
penses of his livelihood. He cannot
ask the butcher, the grocer. the land
lord, and others to feed and shelter
him for nothing, but must pay his
bills like every other citizen. But
where is the money to come from?
Most of it comes from a faithful con-
extra services rendered to those who
desire clergyman and are not con-
tributors TO any church. What right
have they to ask a minister TO marry
them or bury their dead or christen
their babies without financial COM
pensation? Would they ask physi-
clan to attend the birth of a child for
nothing, even though he had many
wealthy patients? Not unless they
were in dire poverty, and then he
would be happy to give his services
>
der every service to the poor for
nothing.
But l have found that the people
who do not want to pay the minister
are, as a rule, well able to pay. They
go nowhere to church: they support
no religious institution with their
money, but when some one dies in
their family they want him to have
religious burial, and they demand a
half day of a minister's time. and
then make no remuneration.
No clergyman, in my judgment,
should ever look upon compensation
for his extra services as a tip or a
disgrace; il is his due | am not
speaking of his regular congregation
Its members may or may not reward
him in extra ways, according to their
feelings in the matter: he does not
expect TO be paid by them, except for
weddings. and then it is not so much
pay as ii is a grateful gift, made by
happy husband over a happy mar
riage. Furthermore, when a minister
receives a wedding fee il is turned
over To his wife and family to make
them happy as a part of the general
happiness of the occasion.
In these days clergymen are made
to pay their bills like the rest of the
people; their salaries, the Lord knows,
are small enough, so small that they
cannot save a penny for a rainy day, |
and they have a right to earn more |
# they can do it without neglecting |
their own congregations. Your cor
respondent who wants to know who |
he clergymen are who will render |
him service for nothing is another of |
hat great army of people who want
for nothing.-H. r., in New |
York Times.

WAIF PICKED UP AT SEA

Some years ago a slow sailing ves-
sci, when some six hundred miles out
from Liverpool, picked up a lustS
youngster of 3 years dashed to d
mast.
The captain took a great liking tC
him, called him his son and decided
that the little chap must be christen-
ed-one of the few things which he
knew must be attended to in the case
of children.
OF course there was no Chaplain
aboard, so the captain himself under
took the ceremony. He gathered the
men about him, and with a mixed
knowledge of his duties. he glared
about him and asked whether any
one knew just cause why the boy
should not be christened
IF there is he roared, speak up
like man or forever hold your
tongue"
Then he suddenly cracked bottle
of wine above his head and christened
him
The ocean waif is now settled down

relates with satisfaction the story of
his christening.-London Telegraph.

FARMERS NERVES RAckEp.
Bad Year for Them and the West Is
Showing 1t.

With early autumn the American
farmer is able to make a fairly accu-
| rate estimate of the seasons return
Seldom has he had no nerve-racking o
year as the one whose harvest income
he is now computing. Yet. after all
its threats of famine there is no rea-
son for encouragement True, with
the exception of rice, and possibly cot
ton later. every principal crop shows
smaller yield than 1910, and less than
the past .ten-year average Compared
with last season, corn falls off 400
100000 bushels. wheat $4,000, 900 BUSH
els, oats 3S0,000,0O0 bushels, and other
crops similarly. But it was inevitable
that constantly increasing crops could
not be expected forever; and the fore
sighted farmer must have anticipated
an occasional short crop season. The
surplus he has heaped up during his
decade of good times ought to enable
him to meet the situation of today with
equanimity. Probably the interior
will feel the crop shortage more keen
ly than the east For several years
preceding the spring of 1910 the west
ern farmer was spending money freely
and buying land on a speculative basis
With land values rising 20 to 80 per
cent year. with dollar wheat giving
an income not enjoyed in two decades,
the farmer was willing to go in debt,
if necessary, TO expand his land hold
ings. He was so heavy a borrower
that in the spring of last year there
came sudden collapse of the land
movement Loan companies and banks
refused to mar further loans on realty
security; speculation stopped; the
farmer was compelled to readjust his
affairs. Naturally he also lessened
his expenses, and for eighteen months
he has been practicing economy in
small things, the effect showing in the
lessened trade of the agricultural
states. Bank clearings of the past
few weeks have shown greater strength
in the east than in the west, contrary

IF YOU RAISE CHICKENS.
Here Are Points About Their Comfort
Which Observed Will Bring Results.

| Flat perches are more comfortabl,
than round ones. A stout 2x4 make;
a good roosting place.
| 1t Is poor. policy to have roosts in
| front of d window. Hens do not like To
sleep in draft any more than people
Good clean water has no substitute
for poultry. Every kind of animal and
AL fowls should have plent, of it q,
all times.
See to it that the henhouses have
good roofs. Hens that have to live in
damp houses are never healthy, and
they cannot do their best.
Fright, caused by dogs, strangers, or
throwing things at the hens, will check
their laying.
Watch closely all places where rats,
polecats, minks. weasels and any such
varmints may harbor. An old rail pile
or wood shed is an ideal place. Get
dogs and traps and poisons after the
enemy, AMI also destroy their hiding
places.
Keep plenty of grit where the fowls
may have free access to it. This is
necessary even where the fowls have
free range, as suitable grinding ma
terial is not always available.
Just as good ducks and geese can be
raised without pond or running wa
ter as with il. See that the fowls have
plenty of water to drink at all times
and all will be we'll
Don't burn or throw away eggshells.
They provide concentrated material
for the formation of other shells if fed
To the fowls. Crush them up quite fine,
however, or else they may teach the
fowls the habit of eating their own
eggs.
1t never pays to keep old hens, and
young pullets together if il can be
avoided. The nearer of an age the
flock is the better will be the results
obtained
1t doesn't cost dnv more to keep
purebred poultry than it does to keep
and scrubs and the returns
are much the largest from the standard
breeds. Than there is the matter of
pleasure and enjoyment, of which

as being beautiful to look at.
Don't shut the fowls in alright when

VOTES FOR WOMEN.

If all the women vote" President
Taft said at Castle Rock. Wash, yes
terday, suffrage will be a success. Ii
they don't vote it won't be"
Exactly
That is why it is necessary to de-
wise some plan for compulsory voting
as a preliminary to equal suffrage.
Most of the opposition of votes for
women is based on the fear that a
majority of women would be indiffer-
ent on election day. That would give
undue influence in the larger cities
to the disreputable and ignorant who
could be herded to the polls by the
methods known to political fixers
Women would best promote the suf-
frage cause if they would lend their
influence to compulsory voting. With
that once obtained. every reasonable
men would welcome the influx into
politics of the moral ideals that would
come from the active interest of good
women in political affairs.
OF course voting ought to be made
compulsory without regard to wom-
ans suffrage. 1t is the highest obli-
cation of citizenship. The man who
neglects it is unfaithful to society
Samuel J. Tilden used to take off his
hat when he cast his ballot. This
ought to be the spirit of every man
who appreciates the privilege of vot-
ing
One Of the great dangers in a de-
mocracy is neglect of this duty.
which is likely to throw control to a
minority directed by special interests.
With compulsory voting this danger
would be avoided and the suffrage
could be extended without risk of
strengthening the forces that are
against the common welfare.-Kansas

Picture Making in New Mexico.

The ferocity with which the po-
litical campaign i'm New Mexico is
waged on both sides is especially APP
parent in the cartoons which the
dailies of that territory are inflicting
upon their readers. The arguments
sought to be conveyed in these Carl
catures are unobjectionable; ii is the
technical work of the artists which
arrests our attention. These cartoons
are unquestiOnably the most hideous
examples of newspaper picture MAX
ing that ever appeared in print. and
considering what the people of New
Mexico have to endure in looking at
them we are inclined to believe that
they constitute a violation of that
provision of the federal constitution
which prohibits cruel and unusual
punishment We infer that these
works Of art are produced by rival
butchers with the aid of meat axes.

A Shrewd Trick for Ashurst.

our special news from PreScot
this morning discloses a trick of re-
markable shrewdness which was
played in behalf Of Henry Ashurst
yesterday The instructions TO As
bursts supporters in Yavapai county
and in the other northern counties:
Vote for one senator only will, il
carried out, give Ashurst a tremend-
Gus advantage over the other sena-
torial aspirants.
1t is conceded by everybody that
Ashurst will get large vote in Yava
Apache. Navajo, Coconino and Mo-
have-the other northern counties. If
his followers generally in the north
should follow these instructions it
would give him such a lead as would
with his vote in the southern counties,
almost surely give him the nominal
ton.
Ashurst, or possibly his managers.
have played shrewd politics through
out this preliminary campaign. In
sections where the sentiment for
Mark Smith predominates. the under
standing has been created that AS
bursts preference is Smith, and that
he and Smith are working together.
Among the supporters of Ives the
understanding has been fostered that
Ashurst and Ives are the lineal de-
scendants of Damon and Pythias.
Among the supporters of O'Neil the
impression has been created that AS
as modern reincarnations Of David
and Jonathan. In short, il has been,
with Ashurst, what is called in theat-
rical circles a brother act as to
each of the other candidates, the
brother selected for the moment be-
ing always the favorite of the citizens
talked with
As a result of these representations,
the followers of Mark Smith, the fol-
lowers of Eugene Ives. and the fol-
lowers Of Brady O'Neill are quite
generally friendly to Ashurst as a
running mate for the favorite in each
case. And the news of the Prescott
coup, which we print this morning,
comes too late, probably. to work a
serious interference with the fences
which have been built for Ashurst
by the tactics we have described. For. |
as everybody knows, there are many |
good democrats who are so partisan |
in a republican paper-if it chances
to be something they don't want to
believe
The fact is, of course, that The Re
publican and republicans generally |
have no interest whatever in defeat
ing Mr.. Ashurst for the nomination
for senator which he hopes to re
ceive in the primaries today. In
deed, we could scarcely wish for bet
ter fortune for the republican party in
Arizona than the task of defeating
Mr.. Ashurst in the general election of
December IL. And our only interest
in the coup of 'one senator only" is
in making public an exceedingly in
teresting piece of news and in COM
upon it as one more revela-
ton OF the extremes to which pro-
fessional politicians will go in order
to get office.
Various names have been applied to
Mr.. Ashurst since he first blazed
forth in the political sky as speaker
