In the February Scribner, John Fox. in his serial, The Heart ot the Hills" gives Colonel Pendle- tons arraigumeut Of his beloved State-Keutucky. The earth was too rich here-it made life too easy. The horse, the bottle of whiskey, and the plug of tobacco were all too easily the best-aud the pistol always too ready. We've been cartooned through the world with a faarsOme, half-contemptuOus slap on the back. Our living has been made out Of luXuries. Agri- culturally, socially, politically, we have gone wrong, and but for the American sense Of hUmor the state would be in a just, nationwide con tempt. The Ku-KluX, the burning Of toll-gates, the Goebel trouble, and the night-riders are all linked in the same chain Of lawlessness, and but for the first the others might not have been. But we are, in spite of all this, a law-abiding people. and the old manhood of the State is still here. Don't forget that-the old manhood is here

The many friends throughout Al aska will regret, as does the Cor doya Alaskan. that Lieut. Col. GIassford was not fortunate enough to be named by President Taft as Gen. Aliens successor as chief Of ,he signal corps of the Army Ac- cording to recent telegraphic ad- vices from Washington this pro motion fell to Col Geo, p. Schriver- ner.
 There were three officers in line for this promotion, Col. schriverner, Lieut.. Col Glassford and Lieut. Col. Green. or the three Col. GIasstOrd is kindly remembered in Alaska for the excellent work he did in behalf Of the cable service and land wires Of the territory as chief signal off cer of the department He labored steadily to improve the facilities for the commercial use of the wire; and to secure lower rates, in order to increase that use.
 For this and for other reasons, it was believed that the president would give the promotion to Col GIassford. He has the distinction of being the officer Of longest service in the signal corps. He entered the signal corps as an enlisted man in 1874, thus having had thirty eight years service. Col. Scriver- .uer. his present superior, was trans ferred to the signal corps from the artillery in 1891, seventeen years after GIassGord was attached to the corps.

The New Creed of the
Congregational Church

" HE most exciting and interesting
meeting of the great National
Council of the Congregational
church at Kansas City was that con-
cerned with the broadening of the con-
stitutiOn and the framing of a state
ment or confession.
As is well known the Congregat ional-
lists have never asked for adhesion and
a formal creed. As the denomination
commenced its life by a demand for
liberty, SO ever since that early day
liberty and freedom have been two
universally esteemed watchwords.
There has been general understanding
as to the common position, but never
has there been any formal creed. Thus
the very life spirit of the body was
played upon when a confession" was
suggested.
The trainers Ga committee which has
been at work for three years. at once
made their position clear by declaring
that the new creed was not for formal
acceptance but only point in a broad
way to what things were felt to be in
the minds of all. No demand would
or could be made on anyone to sub
scribe.
The New confession
After tense attention the creed was
read, thus:
we believe in God the Father. in
finite in wisdom, goodness and love;
and in Jesus Christ, his son, our Lord
and Savior, who, for US and our saliva
ton, lived and died and rose again and
liveths evermOre; and in the Holy Spirit
who taketh of the things of Christ and
revealth them TO US, renewing, COM,
1ortlng and inspiring the souls of men
We are united in striving to know the
viii of God as taught in the Holy Scrip
lures, and in our purpose to walk in the
ways of the Lord, made known or to
be made known to US. We hold it to
be the mission of the Church of Christ
to proclaim the Gospel to all mankind.
exalting for worship of the one true
God, and labOring for the progress of
knowledge, and promotion of justice,
the triumph of peace, and the realizs3
ton of human brotherhood. Depending.
as did our fathers, upon the continued
guidance of the Holy Spirit to lead
US INTO all truth, we work and pray
for the transformation of the world

into the kingdom of God; and we look
with faith for the triumph of righteous
ness and for life and glory everlasting
Amen"
Points To BE Noted.
The creed or confession is noteworthy
for two reasons.
The first reason is for it's omissions
No mention is made of virgin birth, %
of literal resurrection in the body, of
descent into hell.
The second reason is its broad church
policy Tailoring for the progress of
knowledge and promotion of justice
the triumph of peace and the realiza-
ton of human brotherhood"
The Congregation have never
made the mistake of thinking that God
only spoke in times past, that we are
chained to bygOne days, hence, they de-
clare made known or to be made
known to u.s.
Almost Unanimous Vote.
The statement was accepted by 500
votes to l, but it was widely known.
that some would have had the words
broader in meaning, whilst some would
have narrowed them. In a real church
there is room for all, and the Congre-
ga1onalists have again shown that
they have room for many shades of
belief, their real unity being unity in
seeking after better life.

CONFUCIANISM IS
REVIVED IN CHINA
The Question of Recognized
State Religion Is
Looming Large.

Pekin, China, Nov. LIN the process
of drafting a permanent constitution
for the Chinese republic, the question
as to whether there is to be a recog-
nized state religion looms large at
present in the discussion at Pekin.
A decided Confucian revival has been
in progress in recent months and this
has found its expression in the organ
izatiOn Of the COnfucian association,
which includes many distinguished
scholars of the republic. One of the
central figures of the movement is DR..
Chen Huanchang, author of the book,
The Economical Principles of Confu-
Gus and His School," who has received
the highest literary hOnors in China
and also the degree of doctor of phi
losophy from Columbia university. New
York
With other Chinese Iiterati, he has
been carrying on a most energetic cam
paign to influence the members of par
lament to vote in favor of inserting
IN the constitution some such statement
as follows: "COnfucianism shall become
the state religion. while religious lib
erty shall still be accorded to the people
of China" A petition to this effect
has been presented to the assembly.
Following western methods of LOBBYING
DR.. Chen has interviewed practically all
members Of parliament in the support
of this movement.
Before the establishment of the re-
public, prejudice against Christianity
was great but in the provisional con-
stltution freedom of religion was pro-
Vlded for, and Christians as well as
Mohammedans, Buddhists and Taoists
have had before the state at least Dre-
sumptive equality with Confucianists.
The Christians of the republic. now
numbering almost 100000 including
all branches of the Christian church
are not standing. idly by, watching
without protest the movement to es-
tabiish Confucianism as the state re-
ligion. A committee of seven has been
selected and a counter movement is .
under way The duty of the commit
tee is that of informing Christians
throughout the country concerning the
various activities of the Confucian
propaganda and they are also seeing
to it that a counter petition is pre-
scented to the assembly, calling for I'M
conditional religious liberty and re-
1ectlng the proposal to have a state
religion for the republic. Moreover,
other religion becoming an acknowl-
edged national religion is under way in
the Chinese press
This protest of Chinese Christians is
not against Confucianism as such, but
simply in favor of distinct separation
of religion and politics in the new re-
public All that is asked for is free
dom of conscience for Taoists, Budd-
hists and Mohammedans, as well as
for Christians. it being believed that
to make Confucianism a state religion
VIII inevitably mean not only a reac-
tlonary policy involving a certain de-
gree of restriction of other religious
bodies but also an added cause of dis
senslon and strife in the republic. The
Confucianist agitatOrs, on the other
hand, believe that to have a state re-
ligion viii provide a much needed raj
lying point for patriots

COL. READ FINDS
AUTOMOBILE CASING

Col Robert D. Read. of Fort Bliss,
can tell some Fort Stockton automo-
bilist where he can get an automobile
casing which he lost last Wednesday
between Fort Bliss and Hueco Natural
park. The colonel, riding horseback
out from Fort Bliss. was passed by the
car about y miles out. Two miles fur
Their, the cOlOOel found the casing in
the road. He IS positive that the car
dropped 1t, otherwise it would have
been compelled to run over it. The col
onei placed the casing beside the road
and on returning, it was still there.
He met young man in a spring wagon
bound for Orange, n. NJ, and asked
him to pick up the tire and take it to
the ranch at HuecO. Col. Read says
the Stockton car carried either Sc or
SIS as a number The owner, he says,
can get the tire by making arrange
ments to have it sent from the Hueco
ranch to the nearest express office.
