Christian Endeavor
Society
Missions; South. Isa- 55:1-1S. Topic
for sunday, Feb. 26.

In the study Of missions Of this
country, we often neglect the study of
conditions IN the South. We more
naturally look to the West. But not
withstanding this fact there is most
important work being carried on in
the mountainous regions and among
the negroes.
Let us first give a short study 20
the negro question. When In Gods
providence, President Lincoln was
raised up as the freer of the negro
we had some four million descend
ants of Ethiopia among us. Now we
have the total of ten million. This
means young, strong race, which we
must train for good Americanism. The
great Southern problem of the negroes
is great northern problem also
as the great Northern problem Of the
immigrant is a Southern problem as
we'll. Each should help the other
in the solution.
A Southern editor wrote wisely
1.-The negro is here to stay, and we
snail have to make the best OF him
We believe the way to do this is TO
help him make the best OF himself
aAQ ObAdlh ali tuutaNlNns INuAAAlOl
IS the great solution OF the Negro
problem,-an education suited to the
negroes needs, which are chiefly, at
present, moral and industrial. But
the higher education Is necessary ia
prepare the negro teachers and
preachers, for they only can carry on
the work TO the greatest advantage
In 1860 the negroes were entirely IL
literate. Now in the public schools
OF the South more than 10000 negro
teachers are instructing more than
100000 children. The negroes also
own more than $4,000 church build
ings, and raise every year for the
support Of the church the goodly sum
of $7500,00e. 1t is hardly conceiv-
able that this young race were pen
niless at the close of the Civil War
Now, 100000 Of them own their own
homes, and many of them are ad.
vanced far beyond the primitive one
room cabin. There are now 10000
negro farmers, owning 1883 square
miles Of land, territory larger than
Holland and Belgium combined. There

Reports from the coast indicate that
lightweight champion Ad WOlgast is
making rapid strides to recovery from
the effects Of the operation for appendl-
citis to which he was obliged to submit
last Wednesday, While the many
friends of the little title holder through
out the middle west were intensely dis
mayed ana disappointed when the news
OF his sudden illness on the eve of his
match with Fred Welsh of England
flashed over the wires, there was a
general feeling of thankfulness eXtant
that he had become the victim of the
attack before, instead of after, enter
ing the ring
III spite of Wolgast's great success in
the roped arena, in spite of the fact
that he has reaped both glory and large
financial rewards during his career, he
must be listed in fistic records as hay

amount of i'll luck pursuing members of
his profession.
Twice before large, malignant.
black hoodoo of innate viciousness has
camped upon his trail and put him out
of the running. On the first occasion
he suffered 4 broken arm during a bout
with Jack Redmond in Milwaukee and
in n later trial with Tommy Mcfarland
the injured limb was again fractured
Both of these accidents occurred at
times when Ads services were much
in demand and his bank account was
seriously depleted in consequence.
But the hoodOo got in what may be
fairly considered its master stroke at
Los Angeles. Wolgast was in absolute
" perfect condition for his bout with
Welsh, full of snap and ginger, hard as
nails and longing for the moment when
the clang Of the gong would turn him
loose to hurl his compact, muscular
frame against the left-hand jabs of the
Britisher- He was naturally a strong
favorite in the betting, his adherents
being willing to back him to their last
dollars on his chances of stopping the
visitor within the 20-round limit

TO RESTRAIN A TRUST.
Suit Filed Against National cash Reg
lister Company Is Different.

Cincinnati, Dec. 5.-Suit has been filed
in the United States circuit court here
against the National Cash Register
the company is in a conspiracy in re-
straint of trade, and asking that it be
enjoined from further carrying on such
illegal practices as it set forth in the
petition.
The government does not seek to
destroy the National Cash Register
company as a corporation, nor to in
business of the company. but asks that
it be prohibited from selling cash regis
ters and other registering devices in a
manner that would prevent competition.
The suit was fled by United States
District Attorney Sherman T. McPher-
son, who was assisted by Attorney o. e
Harrison, representing the interstate
commerce commission. Those named as
defendants are the cash register COM
pany and Is officers. directors and dis
trict sales agents of the company.
The government in its petition COM
plains that the individual defendants,
acting through the instrumentality of
the corporation, are seeking by illegal
acts to eliminate, stife and suppress
other manufacturers and dealers en-
gagged in the business of making and in
selling and shipping in interstate COM
merce, cash registers and other regis
tering devices.

HE DOES BIG THINGS
Washington NowCOngratulating
Kansas Congressman.
Express and Pure Products Bills
Up This Year.

Washington, Dec. 5.-Kansas has
ample cause for feeling proud of a
member of her congressional delega-
ton who has just reached the pin
nacle of fame as a constructive states
man, and is, in consequence, occupy
| ing a prominent place in the political
spotlight in Washington. This man is
the modest Philip P. Campbell OF
Pitts burg.
He is receiving congratulations on
every hand from public men, Repub-
licans and Democrats alike, for his
initial effort made a few years ago
which set the ball rolling in an action
of Uncle Sam to dissolve the greatest
Campbells resolution adopted by con-
gress calling for an investigation of
the Standard Oil that furnished the
authority and necessary information
recent action Of dissolving this great
corporation
He Does Big Things.
Campbell believes in doing big
things in congress. A year ago he
fathered a measure to prohibit bucket
shop and kindred stock gam bling on
our markets. Under this bill the de-
partment of justice has prosecuted
many cases of gam bling in the larger
cities of the country. and many other
cases are now scheduled for prosecu-
ton
Now Mr.. Campbell proposes legisla-
ton to prohibit fraud upon the public
by manufacturers by placing any 9TH
er than their own name upon a manu-
featured article or comm dity that
enters into interstate and foreign COM
merce- A bill to this end was present
ed in the house at the opening session.
He is of the opinion that such a law
would protect the buyer of manu-
featured articles just as does the pure
food law protects in compelling the
maker or manufacturer to place his
name on his product. 1t would in
sure better grade of goods, he thinks,
of having his name on the article,
would be held responsible for its
quality.
1t Will Protect People.
The first thing the average pur-
chaser endeavors to determine is quail
ity when he goes to make a pur-
chase, and when he buys an article
without name he has no guarantee
of its intrinsic value
such a law" says Mr.. Campbell,
would go a long way to not only
guarantee goods to the American
people. but would protect them
against inferior qualities"
Under Mr.. Campbel1s bill it will be
a misdemeanor for any manufacturer
to violate any section of the law. the
fine to be not to exceed $1,000 or
for a period of not ex-
ceeding six months.
Another very important piece of
legislation of national-wide impor-
lance which Mr. Campbell will push

curing railroads to do their own ex-
press business. In an interview with
the State Journal correspondent, Mr..
Campbell said:
Must Do Express Business.
my bill prohibits railroads leasing
to express companies the privilege eX-
press companies nov have on railroad
trains and requires the roads to Tile
rates with the interMtate commerce
commission for carrying express par
GELS on mail, passenger and express
trains, the same as REQUIRED by law
for carrying freight on freight trains.
THE express companies are making
a hard fight to prevent the bill from
becoming a law. I expected this, and
rely on the business of the bill, and
therefore the support of the public
for it. There has been much encour-
agement; many letters and resolutions
from all parts of the country have
been received, commencing the meas
ure, and there has been much en-
couraging newspaper comment.
while the bill introduces a new
idea on express business. it has not
been looked upon as either imprac-
ticable or unwise. Since its introduce
ton the interstate commerce commits
sion and many state railroad commits
sions have taken up the subject. AT
meeting recently in Washington OF
state railroad commissions after a
short discussion of a motion to en-
dorse the plan of the bill, nineteen
commissioners voted for it, and those
not voting for it said the subject was
so new they wanted more time to
study it.
Wants Voters Opinions.
81 want to go before the commit
tee and the house with as strong a
showing as possible for the bill, and
would like a letter from every voter
in Kansas giving his views on it. If
we can secure the passage of this bill.
or one like it, we should save the
public about 40 per cent of what we
pay the express companies. Railroad
men do much of the work; the rail-
roads own the express cars and haul
them, furnishing everything, and take
so per cent of the receipts from the
express companies. Ten per cent
should pay for what the express com
panies do, and pay the men who do
the express work more than they now
