PACKERS.HAVE DONE
=, What District Attorney Will
kerson says the ten millionaire
packers have done:
The National Packing COM
pany was a mere cloak under
which these defendants acted,
and they neevr attempted to car
ry out the purposes for which it
was organized.
The National Packing COM
pany was but a step in the gen
eral scheme for the control of
prices by these defendants.
They yelled the proceedings of
the board of directors of the Ma
tional Packing Co. with extraor-
binary secrecy.
/. The meetings of the board were
a conspiracy, and their operations
were a crime.
The National Packing Co. was
the old pool, the same combina-
ton under another form, and it
accomplished all that the pool did.
The monopoly which the gov
eminent charges was fostered by
the pool was responsible for the
high cost of living.
They restricted production of
dressed meat, and created a false
condition of scarcity.
Mr.. Wilkerson closed his ad-
dress to the jury in the packers

stated positively that the gov

SANFORD PASTOR RESIGNS

Rev. J. F. McKinnon, pastor of the
Presbyterian church at Sanford, has
resigned his pastorate of that church
to assume the duties of the office OF
county superintendent of public in
struction, to which he was recently
appointed. Consideration of health
weighed largely in determining Mr.
McKinnon to take this step.
A Sanford special says that the
Presbyterian church of which he was
the acceptable and beloved pastor for
about five years, will not be the only
loser by his departure, but the entire
citizenship of Sanford will feel that
they, too, have suffered a deep per.
sonal loss.
Rev. McKinnon was an ideal pas
tor. Wherever there was suffering
or sorrow, he was among the first to
offer sympathy, aid and heartfelt
prayers, irrespective of church name
or creed. He exemplified the borth-
erhood of man in his life and profes,
sion.

Very few Americans would believe
that out of every fourteen persons
buried in this country one finds his
last resting place in Potter's field,
that one person out of every 290 is
being cared for in a state lunatic asy-
lum, and that in this land of such
golden opportunities over 10000 bust
nesses failed in 1909.
"But in spite of these setbacks
America is country of great and
boundless opportunities. One cannot
help noticing the wonderful physical
development and the beauty of the
American children One of nations
great assets is it's children. The fu

A GOOD DEFINITION

Sir Benjamin Ward Richardson
the eminent. English physician, de
scribed alcohol as ''the devil in solu
toni" Very well expressed.
l have had at least three expert
ences with sots of the worst sort. One
had gone so far as to be stricken with
delirium tremens. / was shut ur
with this man many hours, not know
ing what might befall me- He had
promised to do what was right, but
like most degenerates, he did not
keep his promise. He disappeared
into the enclosure called the "acre,
and there we found him.
A second confessed his evil deeds
and they were many. He was guilty
of all manner of iniquity. He declar-
ed with penitence) that he had
broken every moral law, but "now
and here" cought pardon at the foot
of the cross. He was baptized by a
"triune immersion" for he said, ut
must take lot of water for mel" He
departed in peace.
A third was simply crazy for the
drink. He did not like it, but the de-
sire so possessed him that he must
and would have it. He was, at last,
delivered by divine aid.
What more appropriate than thu
definition that alcohol is ''the devil in
solution?" What more Satanic than
the demon that drives these men?
And the spirit cried, and rent him
sore, and came out of him" Rev. O..

THE INDEX FINGER OF FAITH

1t is related in the history of the
late Rev. Charles H. Sturgeon that
his grandfather was a minister in
the same church, and lived in the
same house for fifty-four years, and
that his good Christian grandmother
said to her husband one Sabbath
morning that she was not able to at.
tend the service, but would remain at
home and read her Bible. When the
aged minister returned from the
chapel she was sitting in the old arm
chair with the Bible in her lap, as
if in deep meditation He drew near
to find out the interesting point. Her
index finger was pointing to the
words in the nineteenth chapter of
Job: "The hand of God hath touched
me-" She was dead!
