Proved Effective.
Governor Thomas Chiy,-nden of Yer
mont is remembered for mis- great kind
ness of heart as well as for his ability
and force of character. He was the
first governor of the state and lived in
the liberal manner that befitted his
office. His cellar, as was the custom of
those days, was well stocked every fall
with provisions.
One winter night the governors rest
was broken by sounds coming from his
cellar. He left his bed quietly and.
with candle ready to light. made his
way in the direction of the noise As
and saw a man taking great pieces of
pork out of his meat barrel and stow
ing them away in a bag.
The governor approached the intrud-
er and in Il commanding voice said:
Go on. sir! Fill up that bag and be
off. You ought to be ashamed of your
self to disturb honest people at this
time of night!'
The thief shrank back, evidently
much frightened.

ask for employment, in order that he
might pay for what he had taken. and
that work was found for him, which

As Christian Bible Students-The Sat-
isfactory Proof of "Why God Permits
Evil"
One of the questions which comes to
nearly every thinking mind today Is.
why does God permit evilY' AS we
look about us in the world we observe
that it is filed with sorrow and trouble.
sickness and pain and every trial we
could enumerate, and we cannot help
wondering WHY GOD ALLOWS 1T.
We realize that He is almighty and
that He could prevent it If He wished
We read in His Word that He is more
willing to do for His children than
are earthly parents for theirs, and we
know how much that means; yet Of
tentimes it seems that those who try
to do and live right have the most
trouble. This question is made very
clear in book entitled. THE Divine
Plan of the Ages" Every statement
is backed by Scripture. and shows that

HAS HAD A PURPOSE IN ALLOW.

CHOICE
OF "'OLD GUARD"

Washington, D. c.. Means for the
rehabilitation Of the republican party
are being considered by the old guard
as well as b. the progressive faction,
which held a conference in Chicago
two weeks ago. But the old guard is
going about it with caution and with

JOHNSON SIGNED
ALIEN LAND LAW

Sacramento, Calf, May 19.-Gov,
Johnson signed to-day the alien land
bill against which Japan protests and
which the California legislature pass
ed by an overwhelming majority over
the remonstrances of President Will
son and Secretary Bryan. The act
will go into effect min t. days from
date or on August 18th, Johnson
made known his determination to
sign the bill in a lengthy telegraphic
communication to Secretary Bryan
last week.
Washington, ID. C.-The movement
in California to submit the anti-alien
act TO referendum is understood to
be viewed by the administration as
afording further opportunity for the
diplomatic adjustment of the issues
between the United States and Japan.
1t has been assumed that because of
the apparently overwhelming send-
ment in California in favor OF Japan
ese exclusion from landowning there
might be difficulty in securing the
20, 900 signatures necessary to invoke
the referendum. Now, however the
exclusion element itself, or rather,
its most radical exponenrs the Asiatic
Exclusion League, has taken up the
movement and the probability of sue
cess is greatly increased, in official
Judgment.

of the members toward the printers

Mr.. Granger also took prominent
part in the passage of the bill estab-
fishing the new state game park in
Custer county. This is proposition
which is not fully appreciated by the
people as yet, but when the park Is
fenced and stocked with native South
Dakota big game it will be one of the
finest game parks in the world and a
most effective means of advertising
the attractions to tourist in the Black
Hills.

the people, judging from the verdict
OF the polls; that Roosevelt was right
on public questions from the repub-
lican standpoint, and that he no doubt
could be induced to forget the recall
of judicial decisions and other ideas
to which republicans would hesitate
to subscribe.
Franklin Murphy, republican nat
ional committeeman from New Jer-
sey; gave dinner at his home in
Newark which was attended by
George w. Sheldon. treasurer of the
committee; Senator Boise Penrose,
formerly committeeman from Penn
sylyania, and other standpatters of
the party. While the dinner WAS an
nounced as purely social function,
it is understood that it really was
made the opportunity for a gathering
Of brigandiers of the old guard for
the purpose of discussing ways and
means OF rehaEiliJing the party.
The question with them is what is
the right thing to do. Senator PEN
rose, typical representative OF the
standpat element, has expressed his
opinion to the effect that a reorgau-
ization cannot be eEccred by any con-
ference Of so~called leaders. A long
experience of politics has taught him.
he says, that voters cannot bo driven
into new party or driven out of it
again. They 60 of their own volition
and reorgauizers can meet and adopt
resolutions as often as they please
without materially changing the sit
nation unless the voters are conYinc-
ed that their best interests lie with
the republican party.
The reorganizers urge that if the
members of tie old guard will step
out of the imelight and turn the
party management oyer to the pro-
gressives that it will do much to re-
store confidence of the people in the
party. Some Of the veterans would
be willing to etface themselves, but
they are far from CONVINCED that this
would result as predicted. A number
of them already have been pretty
thoroughly effected by events.
