gates to the Quadrennial general
conference of the Methodist Episco-
pal church continued their attacks
on Catholics at today's session.
DR.. Edwin Locke of Topeka, Kas.,
presented a resolution condemning
the wearing of distinctive religious
garb in the Indian schools of the
United States government.
W. F. Rice of Chilli introduced a
resolution which provided that Meth
odist representatives in Catholic
countries should rank as missionar-
les and not as pastors. He recited
anti-Catholic charges and denounced
Catholicism. Rice openly charged
that Chilean priests led a movement
to take Bibles away from the peo-
pie.
The discussion of the resolution
was embittered as the result of the
publication of a Sunday letter by
Archbishop ireland which declared
the Methodist church organization
was so militant that it was some
times forced to beat the bushes to
find adversaries.
Judge Thomas Anderson of the
District of Columbia supreme court,
addressed the delegates in a discus
sion OF the establishment of church
court of final appeal In the course
of his remarks Judge Anderson de-
nounced the recall of the judiciary
and recall of judicial decisions. He
said:
1T is proposed that the people, in
their aggregate capacity, shall be
given not only the right to make the
laws, but to determine their mean
ing Thus, at one blow, they would
strike down two coordinate branches
OF the government-the legislative
and the judicial
This theory is so repugnant to
the ideas of orderly government that
it will mark the beginning of ma

MINING CONGRESS AT

Mr. Herzinger is anxious that

Herzinger said
Josephine county has an oppor-
tunity to get more advantageous ad-

the mining industry in Josephine

Keeping everlastingly at II brings
success, and We should duplicate the
good work done at Spokane by Mr..
Mangum, This is big mineral field
and people here hardly realize that
much work is underway now. AS
the work is so widely scattered there
does not seem to be much activity.
But there is good deal of money
being spent prospecting number of

Der whenever the opportunity Of

continue to be so. We should in

mining and business men of the
county and city will aid in this
work
IF we keep on hammering away
at this thing we will win. A dozen

knowledge, have changed hands re-
Gently, gone to active mining men
who will make mines out of a ma

Il hope we will have big dele
cation of boosters and a handsome

When the meetings was held at
Medford in February Grants Pass,
as whole, refused to play, but at
Yreka 1t is expected that conditions
will be reversed. Those people hon

president from this city, and word
