An effort was made to have negotia-

expire in 1904 and that this would give
the Colombian government the property

United States. 1t is true that legislation

Wilson Progressive, But Safe.

Governor Wilson has Quieted the
fears of the business interests that the
tariff may be reduced too suddenly in
the event of Democratic success in
November.
Governor Wilson recently had a con-
ference with Congressman Redfeld, of
New York, who has made some of the
most sensible speeches ever heard in
Congress. and it was agreed between
them that the proper and safe thing to
do with regard to the tariff is to cut it.
down gradually until:the proper level
is reached. In that way it will be easy
to ascertain just what effect each sue
cessive cut has on price conditions and
wages. Thus by easy stages the tariff
fer private prC6t can be turned into a
tariff for revenue, and this process is
sure to result in reduction in the cost
of living.
Governor Wilson is not anxious to in.
jure any mans business. He will in
sist. however, in the event of his elect
ion, that all business be legitimate,
ana that the false foundation be taken
from under the tariff trusts. But he
will make it gradual process, and one
that will not disturb either business OF
the country in general.

DEMOCRATIC TICKET.
How Democrats Helped
Labor.

Chairman w. B. Wilson, of the Com
mittee on LabUr of the Democratic
House of Representative pointed out
In a recent speech in the House that
the labor interests of the country had
received more consideration from the
present Democratic House than had
come to them for many years.
He laid special stress or the fact that
the Democrats had restored to govern
ment employees the right of petition-a
constitutional privilege that had been
taken away from them by executive
orders under both Roosevelt and Taft
and on the further fact that the Demo-
cratic party had lived up to it's plat
form promises in the treatment of
labor. Mr.. Wilson cited fifteen speci-
fled measures beneficial to Abr that
had been passed by the House at the
present session at the request of the
workers of the nation.
Prominent among the list is the
eight-hour bill. extending the operat-
ions of this law to the work done for
the government as well as work done
by the government; the anti-injunction
bill, to protect workingmen during
wage disputes; the contempt bill, to
provide for trial by jury in cases of in
direct contempt; the bill creating a
Department of Labor, and theSinvesti-
cation of Taylor and other systems of
scientific shop management, which
impose undue hardships on working
men.

CURIOUS BITS
OF HISTORY
A FIGHTING PREACHER.
BY q. w. MACY.

In 1772 Rev. John Peter Cab
riel Muh;enberg took charge of
the little Lutheran church at
Woodstock, Virginia, and for
three years attended faithfully
to his pastoral duties. During
that time, however, the revoIu-
tlonary rumbIings became
louder and louder, and the
preacher became more and
more interested in the burning
question Of independence. Fin
ally, one Sabbath morning, he
delivered an impressive dis
course on patriotism, and dweIt
at length on the duty of all
good citizens to uphold their
country in the hour of need.
At the close he exclaimed in a
voice like trumpet, "There is
a time for all things; a time
to preach and a time to fight,
and now Is the time to fight"
Then throwing off his sacerdotaI
gown he stood before his as
tonished congregation in the
full regimentaI dress of a Vir-
glnia colonel. He ordered the
drums to be beaten at the
church door for recruits, and on
that day nearly 300 men en-
listed, including almost every
abIe-bodied man of his congre-
cation. He was made colonel
of the Eighth Virginia regiment,
afterwards became a major-gen-
eraI, and gave proof Of his
bravery on many hard-foueht

Brown day was celebrated here yes

over the Hottentots. Score, to 3.
The ceremonies were perpetrated in
the presence of some 1900 people. in
Guiding many delegations from Rose
dale and other subterranean portions of
the neighborhood, for Brownie used to
be a miner and used to blast black dia-
monds out of the bowels of the earth
before he ever dreamed of wearing a
white diamond his chest. And the
miners hereab bouts have not forgotten
that.
No brass band met the hero of Rose
dale and his heroine when the Cubs
alighted from way train just before
noon, but the streets leading from the
station to the hotel were lined with
prominent citizens on the watch for the
parade of the Cub circus, and no circus
procession ever was watched will
| greater interest than was the trip o
