himself to look into the laws delay in this state. has studied extensively the opera ton of English laws and the methods em- ployed in that country for dispatching court business. He is known to look with favor upon the system used there.
 The failure of many men here to get trials where innocence was afterward proven and the failure of some criminals to get a speedy trial when guilty, has brought down upon the present court pro- cedure the wrath of the entire state. It is believed that Governor O'Neal, with the aid of the attorneys on the conference committee. will outline some way by which the situation can be remedied.
 The conference will probably last Thurs day and Friday, or until some method has been determined upon. All the mem bers of the committee from this city are In hearty sympathy with the movement, and will probably have something to sug- gest In the reformation that will event. ually be adopted by the conference.

God by doing nothing; by stopping all greedy care for self and the body; by thinking and worshpping. But all that was the law for the Jews, the Sabbath law for the seventh day.
 Christ never put His church under that law. The early Christians met on the fret day. l do not know that they felt bt und either to work or play-not one word indicates that the Lords Day was at first a Sabbath, q time of doing noth- ing for the early church. So far. at least. as it was not Jewish. 1t was the meeting day. In mediaeval times there was little attention to the Sabbath except for pur- poses of a religious procession and wor- ship The early reformers did not claim that the Sabbath was to be kept as the Jews kept theirs, by doing nothing. On the contrary the law provided that after a man had been to church he should play or the green with the other men of the village.
 "lt was Puritanism that g-afted ,the Old Testament on the New, and produced the Christian Sabbath as it's known in Er gland and America. There's a picture. quite famous, skit on English Puritan ism, which shows family of that period on their house porch, hanging the house cat tnderneath are the lines:

Comes from Puritanism

That Puritanism gave us our present version of tho Christian Sabbath. It Is nol Scriptural; but 1t has evolved, and it st cial and national law. It has no con nectlon with the gospel, except as it gives the church a chance to be heard as she breaches the gospel. Indeed the only references to Sabbath-keeping in the New Testament do not favor the practice. Paul says to the Galatians: 'Ye observe days .
 l am afraid of you. lest l have bestowed on you labor in vain
 Again, in contrast with the Jewish Sabbath, which was symbol. the writer of the Epistle to the Hebrews says There remaineth, therefore. a Sabbath keeping (os the spirit) to the people of God That is the opposite of the Jewish parable Sab bath.
 Now when the pastors of this city 5oir in a protest against the picture the atres running on Sundays, and when one O. them implies that the Sabbath break inf, on the Titanic had something to do with her sinking, 1t is very clear that their minds are moving in different region from the New Testament. They seem to think that there Is something sacred in the Sabbath, making that day more Gods day than the rest of the week. Alas, they seem to think that they can transfer to that day the old command ment. But the old commandment reads, re mt mber the seventh dayi The seventh remembers the seventh day. "The seventh They changed it to the first day and then want to make the old commandment stick. It is very impertinent The first day of the week is not the Bible Sab bath The early Gentle churches never haS a Sabbath The rigid Christian Sab bath is Puritan creation.

marked increase of business in
Grangeville and throughout the
prairie country has decided to re-
spond to the call, and will pro-
vide the very best service possible
Switching arrangements have
been made with a number of

try and the all night service will
place practically the entire prai-
rie country in touch with physic-
ians and drug stores at all hours.
