is that it could have no other effect
than to put the farmer at the mercy

hat the provisions of the Scott anti

it or if it does and it receives the Elk
ecutive approval that it cannot stand
the test Of an appeal to the United
States Supreme Court. II bill does
not include grain or provisions as it
passed the House Of Representatives.
and it is argued that if it is passed by
the Senate in the same shape that it
will be invious and unconstitutional
discrimination at the expense of the
cotton trade Of the country.
However this may be, the cotton
traders have talked, thought, nor
dreamed Of little else but ~anti-option
bills for days, and delegations in OPP
position to the measure have been
sent to Washington by the New Or
leans and New York Cotton Ex-
changes, whose very existence is
threatened by such legislation.
The market closed stronger today on
covering Of shorts and hopes that the

this session of Congress.

YOUNG PERSON
NEEDS PROGRAM

Three hundred young people, at the
Methodist church last night heard the
pastor, Rev Robert Warner, speak
upon "The Young Person with a Pro
gram" The service was especially
for young people and at it's close eight
united with the church.
That the young people of today
were the inheritors of all that had
gone before, and Stood as no other
generation has stood, upon the pin
nacle of the past was the theme de-
veloped by the pastor. He declared
that the young people of today had a
great heritage to hand on to their sue
cessors, and that only through order
in educational business, and religious
work could this be attained. The SER
mon was an inspiring plea for well
ordered life with a definite aim.

The recent seizure OF thousands Of modern
rifles being smuggled into India, the bloody
battles which have been fought with gun

spiracy to arm the dissatisfied Indians and
ultimately to rise against the British gov

The extraordinary precautions are being
taken to meet any emergency which may
arise. Not only have the most efficient
secret agents available been put to work
to ferret out the supply Of gun runners,
but the British regiments are being quietly
strengthened and the native regiments are
being weeded out OF all whose absolute
loyalty there is the faintest suspicion.
Administration reforms tending to allay

being introduced and 1t is hoped an out

Head of New York Retail GrOcers
Says Proposed Change VIII Benefit
Consumer Five Cents on
Butter and Eggs.

NEW York. Jan. 29.--(Special Telegran)
Canadian butter, eggs, cheese, honey and
fresh vegetables including potatoes, com
ing into this country free from duty, will
strike a telling blow for the consumer in
New York City, according to the opinion
expressed today by leading retail mer-
chants. In fact local grocers banded to-
gether in powerful retail organization, are
already planning, the invasion of the Cana
dian markets, and the purchase there of the
duty free foodstuffs by the carload.
1--WE retailers are tired of being blamed
for the high prices of foodstuffs," said
President T. j. Mckinney, Of the United
Retail grocers' association of Brooklyn.
1.-THE admittance, duty free, of Canadian
products will give us a weapon which we
can use against the wholesalers who have
kept agents travelling through the west,
grabbing up all OF the best creamery but
ter, and later doing 1t out to us at exorbl-
tant prices, this premium when butter is
scarce running very high.
There is no reason why we retailers
cannot send our agents into Canada with
authority to contract for the best dairy
products. Shipments can be made direct
to the market. The effect of such a course
would be to force down the prices Of
American foodstuffs here. For the present
the dock prices for foodstuffs printed in
the commercial papers are first cost be-
fore the wholesaler begins to add his per-
Icentage."

Pope Says Bishop
Must Insist on Oath
Denying Modernism
Ruling Results in Withdrawal of Sew.
eral Members of Theological Fac
ulty at University of Munich.

BERLIN, Jan. 9.-Widespread interest
has been aroused by a letter from the pope
TO Cardinal Fischer, archbishop of Cologne,
relative to the oath disavowing modernism
which is now required of theological pro-
fessors by the vatican. This ruling has
already resulted in the withdrawal of sew
eral members of the theological faculty at
the University OF Munich and has called
for a sharp controversy in the newspapers.
After declaring that the bishops should
not permit foresight to develop into faint
heartedness in connection with the depri-
walton OF clergy from ozfice when they
refuse to defer to a new test and express
ing no surprise that those who fear their
own positions are striving against the
edicts, even, perhaps, calling upon the
state to prevent It's being carried out, the
pope proceeds;
In fulfllment of duty so far as Cod
praise is directly concerned. the struggle
should not be Stunned. On the contrary,
1t should be courageously entered upon"
The letter sets forth that professors of
theology in state schools need not take the
oath, except when they are at the same
time occupying the pastoral office OF any
kind, but 1t regards as ''cowardly defer
ence" the action of state teachers who
make use of the permission OF Rome not
to take the oath because of those who
