SUGGESTION
To Change Name OF Episcopal
Church Brings Kisses
Lively Debate Follows Move
To Make Name Catholic

New York, Oct 1.-THE suggestion
that the corporate name of the Prot
estant Episcopal church be changed
to the American Catholic church pre-
cipitated a long debate today at the
general convention of the church.
At the instance of the high church
it was voted by the house of deputies
to appoint a committee to revise the
prayer book, but before this decision
was reached the low church delegates
had succeeded in having restricting
amendments made to the resolution
that authorized appointment of the
committee.
1t was openly declared by low
church delegates that the resolution,
as introduced by the high church
members, left the way clear for the
commission to decide for the whole
house of deputies that the church
name should be changed. The amend
ments made it impossible for the COM
lultIee LO take SuCu dCIlOD.
The resolution to "revise and en-
rich" the book of common prayer was
offered by the diocese of California
and the missionary district of Arizona,
which asked that a commission of
seven bishops, seven presbyters and
seven laymen consider the matter and
report at the next triennial conyen-
ton
DR. Randolf H. McKim of Wash
ington, low church leader, declared
the appointment of such commits
sion meant an opening wedge to
changing the church name. He Of
fered an amendment reading: Pro
vided that no proposals to change the
title page of the prayer book or the
name OF the church shall be referred
to said commission"
By vote of 257 to 1877 the amend
ment was defeated.
DR.. Edward l.. Goodwin of Virginia
offered an amendment: Provided
that no proposition involving the
faith and doctrine of the church shall
be considered or reported upon by the
commission
DR.. Leighton Parks of New York,
while speaking of the apparent effort
being made to change the name of the
church, was hissed.
Well, some of us believe he con-
tinued that if you take away the
Protestant character of this church
you rob it OF a great treasure. This
issue on the change of name has been
unexpectedly precipitated in this
house and is to be regretted, because
it may injre an otherwise very valu-
able measure"

BROTHER
Of A DanviIle Woman Is
Killed At LOudOnviIIe
Life Crushed Out When Loo
Fell On Him

Danville, Ohio, October 14-Word
was received here Monday evening by
Mrs. James Stats of the death of her
brother, William Brock, of Loudon-
vile who was accidentally killed
while loading logs shortly after noon
Monday.
MIR. Brock was assisting other
workmen in rolling large logs up
skids to the floor of a fiat car and
was standing upon the ground behind
one of the heavy pieces of timber
while it was being hoisted. In some
manner the tackle became loosened
and the log was released. 1t rolled
backward down the skids very rapid
ly and the unfortunate man had no
chance to escape. He was knocked
to the ground and his head was crush
ed by the weight of the log. His death
resulted almost instantly
He was % years of age and is sur
vived by his wife, his mother, and
one child. He is also survived by
two brothers and three sisters.

Is Secretary Graves By
Supreme Court
Has Final Authority On
Referendum Petitions

Columbus, o. Oct. 14-In the Ohio
Equity association cases the Supreme
court Tuesday gave double-barreled
decision. 1t held that Secretary of
State Graves has final jurisdiction in
initiative and referendum matters and
it gave the Equity association the
right to come into court and offer evil
dence to substantiate it's claims that
Secretary of State Graves acted fraud
ulently in throwing out the referen-

The courts decision means that
the Warnes and Fitzpatrick laws will
not be submitted to a referendum
vote Nov. unless the Equity asso-
citation succeeds in proving that
Graves acted fraudulently and cor
ruptly in making the decision that
he did. 1t is practically assured that
the fraud charges against Graves can
not be decided between now and Nov.

And For Several Hours Her
Condition Was Most Serious
Mother Says Girls Mind I'm.
balanced Over III-HeaIth

An effort to commit suicide by
drinking carbolic acid by Lulu Tom
linson, aged 16 years, residing at 3o6
South Gay street, was frustrated by
her mother, Mrs. Herbert Lindsay,
Monday evening. A cup containing
the acid was dashed from the girls
hand by her mother, but not until at
ter she had taken one swallow of the
liquid. She will recover.
The attempt was made at about
six o'clock. Supper had been prepar-
ed and the family was ready to sit
down to the table when strong odor
of carbolic acid was detected and
Mrs. Lindsay saw the girl raising a
cup to her lips. Instantly divining
the purpose of the act and rightly be-
lieving the cup to contain the acid
that had been detected, she ran to her
daughter and Knocked the cup to the
floor. The girl had succeeded in swal-
lowing small portion of the poison
and Immediately began to suffer great
pain from burns in her mouth and
throat. Drs. Blair and Colville were
called Immediately and antidotes were
administered. For time it was fear
ed that enough had been swallowed
to cause death as the girl was appar-
emily in very bad condition and
remained so for several hours. She
could not make herself understood
although she evidently tried to tell
something,
After considerable length of time
the pain was alleviated and her con-
dition improved slightly. On Tues
day morning she was much better, but
was still unable to speak owning to
the swollen condition of her mouth
and throat and to the burns that had
resulted from drinking the acid.
The Tomlinson girl had been stay
ing at the Lindsay home for some
time and, according to statement
made by Mrs. Lindsay, had been act
ing queerly for several weeks. She
never intimated her intention to at
tempt to take her life, however, and
such move was unexpected. Mrs.
Lindsay stated that she believed her
daughter mentally unbalanced as
result of several months i'll health.
No motive for the act is given by the
family other than the theory advanced
to the effect that the girls mind has
been affected by i'll health.
Where and when she secured the
poison is not yet known. The proba-
bility is that she had secured it and
kept it secreted until what she con-
sidered an opportune moment to take
her life. She is now considered to be
out of danger.

BRYAN is RIGHT.

The obstinate obstructionist can
not do much more effective work in
delaying the progress of reform leg
islation than that which is uncon-
sciously accomplished by the honest
but dffuse reformer. For the policy
which does one thing at time these
men would substitute programme
for doing everything at once. They
scatter energy and lay themselves
open to attack from every direction.
Of this type are the men who are
now trying to saddle various unnec-
essary provisions upon the currency
bill. One of these proposals is that
which would forbid any person from
being director in more than one
national bank. 1t may be freely con-
ceded that interlocking rbank direc-
torates are not desirable, but it can
not be contended that this prohibit
ton is essential to currency reform.
To hang it on the bill will simply
make one more point against which
obstruction may throw itself.
The worst features of interlocking
directorates do not arise from the
tying of one bank to another. 1t is
the tying of banks to industrial or
transportation companies and the ty-
ing of transportation to industries
having goods to be transported
which work the great mischiefs. The
New Haven road was financed
through a banking house which also
dominated the road. AS the domi-
nant director of the road Mr.. Morgan
decided what money should be Dor
rowed and then proceeded to lend
money to himself. Such conflict of
interest would vitiate the judgment
of anything less than a. superman,
and when the regulation OF inter-
locking directories comes up it will
be aimed against abuses of this kind
wherever they may exist. 1t is
big subject and will demand prolong-
ed consideration. Secretary Bryan
is right, therefore, when he advises
his friends in congress to drop it
and concentrate upon the essential
features of the currency bill.-St.
Louis Republic.

JOHN LIND.

One figure that stands out clear
and fine against the murk of Mexi-
can intrigue is that Of John Lind,
special commissioner of President
Wilson.
Lind's handling of this difficult
mussion has been a masterpiece OF
quiet efficiency. The proposals he
brought were rejected by Huerta
but Lind so managed that the whole
civilized world knows and admits
Huerta is in the wrong.
Lind refused to either bully or be
bullied. He upheld his country
dignity without giving offense to the
sensibilities of any rational citizen
of Mexico He made the thinking
people of that unfortunate land un'
derstand that the great republic OF
the north is their friend, and never
more truly friendly than in refusing
to acknowledge the blood-staineG
dictator who seeks to maintain him
self in power by sheer terror.
1t was Lind's work to repair sc
far as might be the damage done by
the mischievious meddling and fam.
boyant folly of H. l.. Wilson. That
work has been done.-Chicago Jour.

DRY IN IMAGINATION.

The bootlegger is the curse OF the
liquor business. In OttumWa, Where
open saloons have long since been
relegated, there is equally as much
intoxicating liquor sold as in Bur
lington. Most of it is the vile stun
and the sale and consumption does
not tend to make better citizens.
Ottumwa is a dry town merely in the
Imagination of the misguided folks
who succeed in downing the saloon
consent petition.-OttumWa courier;
And the same thing applies to all
so-called dry towns. Creston mad II
for ten years and they were years or
debauchery, drunkenness, puDllc
debt and business StagnatlOn.
The government statistics snow
that there is just as much liquor sold
in dry territory as in wet territory,
but less light drinks because beer is
bulky and cannot be secreted as IL
uuors can, thus the light and least
harmful drinks are given out.
The regulated saloon, where the
liuuor dealer is under heavy bonds
and the property where he does bust
ness is held liable for damages that
may accrue from his sales, is much
better than the unregulated boot
logger and secret hell holes that in
fest the so-called dry cities.
The good citizens of Ottumwa
have gone down in their private pock-
cts and raised thousands of dollars
to help prosecute the illegal liquor
dealers, but have not succeeded in
suppressing the traffic. They have
only succeeded in creating strife, dis
sension and i'll feeling and this in
turn puts stop to public enterprise.
The progress of a city depends upon
the enthusiastic public spirit OF its
citizens and this cannot exist under
laws that deprive people of their in
herent rights.
The prohibitory liquor laws are
wrong because they interfere with
the personal liberty of the citizen.
This does not mean that the citizen
has a right to get drunk or disorder
ly. The man who becomes bolster
Gus and disorderly, whether drunk
or sober, should be punished.
Drinking is a vice, just the same
as smoking or chewing, but it is not
a crime and all the laws that ever
have or ever will be put on the stat
ute books will never make it crime
in the eyes of liberty loving people.
The prohibitionists don't believe it
a crime to take drink, and to our
personal knowledge many of them
keep liquors in their cellars. If
they believe it crime they should
punish the man who drinks as we'll
as the man who sells.
This paper has always contended
that the only way practical prohi-
bition can be accomplished is for the
government to prohibit the manufac-
ture as we'll as the sale and on the
same principle that our pure food
laws are based, that it is for the pub
Lie good.-Creston American.

A WISE AND MANLY POLICY.

Z President Wilson's address to con-
gress on the Mexican crisis is an able
and satisfactory state paper. He
makes clear the disinterested efforts
of this administration to help Mexi-
cans to a settlement of their trouble,
and gives rules which will govern
him in further dealing with that dis
tracted country. Those rules are:
Perfect neutrality on the part OF
the United States, with prohibition
of the shipment of arms to any part
of Mexico.
Aid to Americans to leave that
country, and protection to those who
remain. THAT point declares the
president, ''can be and will be made
plain beyond the possibility of mis-
understanding.
Readiness to resume negotiations
whenever opportunity offers.
There can be no doubt that the
nation and the world approve both
what President Wilson has done al
ready, and the policy here laid down
for the future. 1t is a policy at
once just and dignified, strong and
safe. 1t enlists time and exhaustion
on the side of peace. 1t leaves the
Huerta regime to fall by it's own
weight-unless Huerta makes the
capital mistake of turning his arms
against American citizens. 1t COM
pels the approval of the civilized
world, and thereby weakens every
agency of selfish disturbance south
of the Rio Grande.
President Wilson points out that
one reason why the mediation of the
United States was rejected is that
the authorities in Mexico are misin-
formed on two important points.
They doubt the friendship OF this re-
public for their own land, and they
do not believe the American people
are united in support of the presi-
dents policy.
10th these misunderstanding
have been created and fostered by
interested jingoes, by yellow jour-
nails which love war for it's own sake,
bv trust magnates and agents who
prefer war abroad to revision of the
tariff and reform of the currency at
home. These disloyal plotters stand
forth today as the sole allies OF
Aureliano Huerta.
Congress should take some action
to disown the few jingoes in its
midst, and to make clear, even to
the dull and suspicious regime now
installed in Mexico, that the Amerl-
can people are back of their presi-
dent to the last dollar and soldier
this country contains.
Meantime, President Wilson's sane
and honorable course is doing all
that may be done to avoid the expen-
diture of men and money in armed
intervention.-Chic Journal.

THE UNPOPULAR MONROE DOC
Urine,

A little study of the map of east
ern South America and a little time
spent on tables of area and popula-
ton of divers countries will explain
why the Monroe doctrine has no
friends in Berlin.
Urugay, Paraguay and the south
ern states of Brazil form compact
block of territory of nearly 700, 900
square miles, mostly inclosed by
natural boundaries. The climate is
healthful and mild. Agricultural
possibilities are immense. Yet this
favored region contains only ABOUT
ten persons to the square mile.
Paraguay, which Alexander Hum
boldt said could raise more human
food than any equal area on earth.
has nearly 100000 square miles and
635, 900 inhabitants-a trifie Sover
three to the square mile. Meantime
Germany is struggling along with
2OS,OOO square miles and $4,000, 900
people-one person for each two
acres in the empire. Small wonder
that the masters of this swarming
population look hungrily toward
those vacant lands before which the
Monroe doctrine stands guard.
Yet this historic policy Of the
United States is just. 1t does not
prohibit peaceful colonization. 1t
merely forbids conquest. If mil
lion Germans would emigrate to
Brazil and Paraguay as more than
half a million Americans have emf
grated to Canada, no one in this
county would object. If five million
Germans should gather in some part
of South America and set up a Ger
transporting republic of their own,
every American would rejoice.
The Monroe doctrine bars the
soldier, not the settler. But to most
old world statesmen, this is a dis
tinction without a difference. Ameri-
cans should try to understand Euro
pean land hunger, even if they can
not countenance it.
