EDITOR SCORES CHURCHES
Says "Well To Do's'' Are AL

Of Churches ~ .
PROBLEM OF CAPITAL-LABOR

Los Angeles, Cal, July 12.-"From
my point of view as a newspaper
man the churches of America, alike
in the Republic and the Dominion.
nave In the past been in danger of
losing the national outlook and be.
coming mere denominations of the
intellectual and the we'll to do.
This was the assertion of DR.. J. A.
Macdonald, editor of the Toronto
Globe and one of the Canadian dele
gates to the International Christian
Endeavor convention in session here,
in his address on "The Problem of
Capital and Labor as Related to the
Churches" -
All over America" said DR.. Mac.
Donald, there has grown up an in
dustrial absolutism more harmful
and much more arrogant than that of
any Stuart queen, but where is the
church of John Knox that will stand
against tyranny and oppression for
the will Of God and for the right of
men? ri
What does the comfortable church
of the we'll to do know about the
problem of work or of wages? How
can 1t hear the passionate cry Of the
children of America million OF
them-some say three MILLIONS
caught in the cruel wheels of our vast,
heartless industrial machine? How
can 1t measure the agony of women
whose only alternative is starvation
or shame? Why? Because of the
church's social apostasy. Once
again the church has become the
conservator of vested interests and
worships the God of things a. they
are"

MAY AGREE TO AN ARMISTICE
But Greece and Servia> Will Insist on
Territorial Demands.

Territorial Demands.
London, July 12-Diplomats here
awaited with interest the replies ex-
pected from Servia and Greece as a
result of Bulgaria's action in plac-
ing her affairs in the hands of Russia.
There is little doubt that these
countries would agree to an imme-
date armistice providing Bulgaria
would agree to the main provisions
of the peace terms which it is known
would be demanded. The invasion
by Roumania would also possibly be
stopped, providing Bulgaria agrees to
turn over to King Charles the terri
tory he demands as reward for neu
trality during the struggle Of the Bal
kan allies with Turkey.
Servia and Greece also demand ter"
ritorial concessions, and it is believed
here that should Bulgaria refuse at
the present time to accede to the de-
armies may be expected to join forces
and impose even more exacting terms
on Gear Ferdinand. ...... -,
Reports from the armies tell of ad-
ditional reverses of the Bulgarians.
The plan to place strong force be.
tween the Servian and Greek armies
at Guevjelvin has failed completely
and the two forces are said to be com
bining there.
General Savoff's removal from com,
mand of the Bulgarian army has led
to the belief that there is serious dis
sension and further fighting would
probably result in an even more COM
plete disorganization of the army.

NORMAL BOARD IS
STILL 0PENMINDED.
So Writes Chairman Schulz To +.
A. Wilson Under Date Of July
Eleventh
NO GROUNDS FOR PRE-DEc1s1oN
Meet At Capitol Next Tuesday To
Determine The Location OF The
Normal School.

IN a letter addressed to f. A. Will
son, editor of the Bemidii Sentinel.
chairman c. G. Schulz stated that
the Normal school commission would
meet in St. Paul at the Capitol build
ing next Tuesday and determine the
location of the sixth normal school.
The letter gives assurance that the
commission is unbiased and still
open minded and that the school will
be located, where it will be of the
greatest permanent usefulness to the
section of the state which It is in
teneded to serve. The letter in full
is as follows:
.s Il July IL, 1918.
Mr.. F. A. Wilson,
Bemidji, Minnesota.
Dear Sir
: The commission will meet at the
Capitol next Tuesday to determine
the location of the normal school.
We have not discussed the merits of
the several proposed locations, nor
conferred, up to this time, with
view of reaching any definite conclu-
sion. At our meeting on Tuesday we
shall go over the facts that have
been presented and give as complete
and thorough a consideration as is
possible. wish the representatives
of Bemidji, as we'll as those of other
towns, to be assured that the COM
mission has been opened-minded, and
is now. I believe that each of my as
sociates feels as do, that when the
location is determined it will be ac-
copied by all the communities as an
impartial and unbiased decision.
Should any statement be made,
prior to the announcement of the
commissions selection, that the ques-
ton has already been decided, you
will treat this as talk without any
foundation in fact. I am sure that
I can speak for the entire commits
sion in saying that we shall be gov
erned by one consideration only
that of seeking to so locate this nor
NAL school that it will be of the
greatest permanent usefulness to
that portion of our state which it
is intended to serve.
Each community has one or more
sites which are suitable as location
and would answer every purpose. AZ
ter our decision is announced, It is
not only desirable but important for
the future usefulness of this nor
NAL school and for the continuance
of that good feeling which has char
acterized northern Minnesota, that
the several communities should join
in giving it their undivided support
in the same manner as they have
worked together toward securing it's
establishment.
Yours very truly,
G. G. Schulz
Superintendent of Education

SPEAKER CLARK
DENIES CHARGE
Says Stories of Lamar And His
Friends Are False. "Never Met
Him"
DENIAL STATEMENT SUBMITTED
Chief" Of Lower House Never

Washington, July 12.-Martin M.

his activities as lobbyist for the Ma
tiOnal Association of Manufacturers

having been susceptible to influences
of lobby" was ready to begin his
testimony when the senate investigat-

ment showing the financial operations
of the association. ~.
He was questioned about special
$4,000 fund raised several years ago.
He. said he had NO record of how that
fund was collected or disbursed. He
believed E. p. Green of Boston, who
helped raise it, could tell how it had
been spent He was certain the mon.
ey had been spent in printing and trav.

William Whitman, former president
of the association, who took the stand
after Marvin, explained $4,000 gift
made to S. N. D. North, secretary Of
the association in 1897, and clerk to
majority members of the senate finance
committee. The gift was made after
the Dingley bill passed congress.
Many prominent wool manufacturers
and others not connected with the as
ISOLATION contributed to the fund.
Denial by Speaker Clark.
Speaker Clark, testifying with re-.
gard to the use of his name by David
Lamar and Edward Lauterbach, said
he had never had anything to do with
Lamar, Lauterbach or any of the men
mentioned by them. ..,..
J. Pierpont Morgan, he said, he saw
at Grididron dinner in Washington
several years ago at which former
President Roosevelt and former Sena-
tor Foraker engaged in joint debate.
Speaker Clark put in this statement:
"Ledyard says that Lauterbach told
him that he was in communication
with me through Senator Stone. Lau.
terbach, who acknowledged on the wit
ness stand that he had lied, said that
Lamar gave him the information. La
mar confessed the whole tale was a
lie to force Morgan & Co. to take
Lauterbach back into their employ.
All of them disclaim any acquaintance
or communication with me-.
Senator Stone justly and properly
characterized the Lamar-Lauterbach
tale as lie. He and never in our
lives conversed about or in any way
mentioned to each other Morgan Il
Co. or the steel trust investigation.
II never spoke to John Pierpont
Morgan or any member of his firm in
my life; never communicated with him
or them in any manner whatsoever,
and never authorized anybody else to
do 80. I was, to my best knowledge
and belief, never introduced, even
causually, to him or any of them"
