The Church With a Welcome

In spite of the rain last Sunday the
church house was comfortably filled
with people who were more than de-
lighted with the Children's Day pro-
gram. Many remarked that the pro-
gram was of more than usual inter-
est, and indeed a very great deal
might be said in praise of the various
members on the program. Both lit
tie and large folks did nicely the part
assigned to them, and the pastor of
the church takes this opportunity to
thank one and all of those who took
part in the program, and those who
had to do with its arrangement.
Next Sunday morning at the usual
hour our wide-awake Sunday School
will convene. A growing interest is
manifest, which was only natural
when one comes to consider the per-
sonnet of officers and teachers lists.

parlors. II is matter deserving spe-
cial remark that the various organiza-
tons of the church conduct their ses-
sions and carry forward their plans
in systematic business manner.
The public is cordially invited to
attend our next Sunday evening SER
vice, at which time the discussion of
the last subject in the business mems
service will be held. At this service
a number of business men will brief
ly express themselves as to the influ-
ence of the plan which the pastor of
the Ohio street church has just tried
out. The business mems male quar-

evening sermon will be "The half

needs of my brother and striving to
help him. "
Remember, please, that this church

hand to friend and stranger alike.
The fact is we are mighty glad to
have you with us and we believe it

The Fourth of July Entertain
ment Called Off.

1t was the intention of the Butler
Commercial Club and the Elks Club
of Butler to put on the biggest and
best Fourth of July entertainment
ever attempted in Butler. Among
the other features was to be a circus,
given by the Elks, with a monster
parade, but alas, when the committee
undertook to make arrangements for
costumes and other property that
they had to use to make a success,
10 and behold, they could not get
them in Kansas City for the reason
that long before they had been en-
gagged. The matter of securing them
was taken up with St. Louis and
Chicago with the same result, i. e. too
late.
A meeting of the Commercial Club
directors and committee from the
Elks met at Culver's store Tuesday
morning and, after canvassing the
matter for nearly two hours, decided
as we could not begin to give the
public what had been promised called
it off. This decision was concured in
by both the club and the Elks.
At the meeting it was decided as
we could not put on the entertain
ment for the 4th the public was en-
titled to, we would make a bigger
and better Chautauqua which CON-
mences July %.
Trusting that this explanation will
be entirely satisfactory, and assuring
you we regret exceedingly the disap-
pointment, but feel that we have done
the wise thing under the circumstan-
,ces. Signed:
Butler Commercial Club.

Where Are the Seven?

What has become of the seven
governors? They will be remem-
bered in the aggregate, though most
ly forgotten as individuals, as the
men who voiced the popular de-
mand" that Col. Roosevelt return to
the White House and stay the pro-
gress of advancing ruin.
It was their united voice which de-
termined the shrinking Colonel to lay
aside the welcome robes of private
obscurity and step forth again full
panoplied for war. They were the
very head and front Of the Roosevelt
movement. They were the represen-
tatives of all that spontaneous but
unorganized enthusiasm which Col.
Roosevelt had inspired in the popular
breast.
But some way, somehow, they
dropped out of sight like the trained
players in a prologue when the real
drama is staged. The Dixons, the
McHargs and the Flynns have Shout
dered them into the wings and stand
in the limelight where they stood.
Does the smile stand for a truth?
Were the seven governors taught
their parts by a certain grea. political
stage manager who needed an Gin
duction" to grand, triumphant re-
entry of himself in the role of hero,
and are now in the dressing-room
washing away the grease paint and
wondering why the boss would not
let them have an encore?- Republic.

Taft Wins II More Votes, Split.
ting Roosevelt Ranks.
Chicago, ILL.,, June 1O.-This was
blue Monday for Theodore Roosevelt,
in fact, it was almost purple.
BY unanimous vote, except in one
instance, the National Committee
threw out his twelve contesting dele
gates from Indiana. 1t ridiculed his
charge of fraud and crookedness. II
gave his candidacy the worst black
eye it has received in a week. And,
further, it caused CONSERVATION
among his managers, and led to a
fight between them and their col
leagues on the committee. His BOOM
ers now find themselves in a position
which they have difficulty in defend
ing. They are face to face with a
situation which they are striving hard
to explain.
The meeting Of the committee was
the liveliest thus far held. 1t was
marked by personal clashes between
the opposing forces, and showed
clearly how bitter will become the
fight before it is finished.
Serious strife has developed among
the managers of the Roosevelt boom
and the so-called friends of the move
ment on the National Committee. 1t
is due to the insistence of the man.
ayers that the committeeman vote to
seat the contesting delegates.
Most of the committeeman have
openly told the managers that they
will vote to seat only those who are
rghtfully entitled to seats. They
have declared to the directors of the
campaign that they would waste no
time with "back-room" delegates.
Senator Borah, one Of the most
ardent supporters of Roosevelt, ex-
pressed scorn for some of the con-
tests today and caused sensation in
the camp OF the Roosevelt men by
openly declaring that he would not
prostitute himself" for any delegate
or candidate.
81 would cut off my right arm be-
fore would vote for a man who was
not rightfully and legally elected.
That is not my way Of doing things.
They have asked me to explain why
we voted as we did in the Indiana
contests. Ivoted as l did because it
was shown to my entire satisfaction
that the Taft delegates were elected
and the others were not. When they
present evidence to show that con-
testants were elected l will vote for
them. The evidence presented to-
day did not show that any irregulari-
ties were practiced in the Indiana
elections.
