twenty-tbird anniversary of the mar.
riage of Rev. and Mrs. J. NJ. Bailey,
and the members of the Christian
Church gave them quite little SUI
prise by an unusual attendance at
prayer meeting last evening, aud
after the services accompanied them
to the parsonage, where they had
ordered refreshments sent. Mr.. and
Mrs. Bailey were completely taken
by surprise, AS no announcement
had been made of the occasions In
fact 1t bad only been incidentally
learned by one or two members of
the congregation that yesterday was
the anniversary of their PASTORS
marriage, and they began to notify
other members by phone, which re-
suited in the informal celebration.
Something more elaborate would
have been arranged II they had
known befOl ehand of the anniver-
sary, for MIR. Bailey and his esti.
mable wife are very much beloved
and admired by the whole congrega-
ton. A couple OF hours were most
delightfully."- spent at the parsonage,
and after refreshments were served,
the self-invited guests on departing,
wished Mr.. and Mrs, Bailey many
happy returns of the day.

New York newspaper, without single

dramatic skill shown in the play and
II is no surprise to have since learn
ed that the ambition to write for the
stage had long been nourished by him
even before he was inspired by his
own actual experience as Secret Ser
vice Agent to treat of this particular
timely problem. Acton Davies, the
wellknown critic of the New York
Evening Sun at once declared that
THE Lure" was "a mighty powerful
play" and that since Eugene Walter

such inspired dramatist had appeared
till George Scarborough. He added
that Mr.. Scarborough had produced

fences had seen since the big act of

TARIFF BLOW HITS
BORDER TOWNS

Practical examples of the effect OF
the new tariff are reported daily In
the newspapers. The fact that
steamer from St. John, Nova Scotia,
skipped Lubec, Me-, on the trip to
Boston, because she was loaded with
free trade Canadian products, and
left at Lubec hundreds of cases OF
sardines intended for immediate ship
ment tells the story. On the wharf
at Lubec were the long shoremen
who were waiting for their SO a day

less the packers and Gamers inaugu-

FARMERS LOSSES
THROUGH FREE TRADE

The tariff bill was undeniably the
cause OF much II not all OF the de-
crease in wheat prices. Canadian
wheat has been pouring over the Dor.
der as freely as Montana wheat has
been going to Minneapolis. Does any
Montana farmer believe he is getting
as much for his wheat as he would
have received IL the millions Of bush
els of Canadian wheat already impor-
ted had been kept out by a continu'
ance of the old Republican toriff?
Has the Montana farmer anything
to show for this loss Of 5 to possibly
y cents a bushel? Does he get any
article cheaper than he did? Does
he pay any less for labor? Is the cost
of living decreased in solitary par
ticular to counter balance the loss
caused him by the free importation
of all farming products?
It is no answer to these questions
that there will be a saving in the fu
ture. The loss Is present one
