Resolution of Endorsement.

We, the democrats Of Hamilton
township, Decatur county, Iowa, in
caucus assembled, heartily endorse
and appreciate President Wilson and
his administration as being wise,
safe and consistent with the needs
and demands of the American people
at the present time. And We approve
of the reduction of the high tarln
law known as the Payne-Aldrich bill
saddled upon the people of this ma
ton by the Taft administration that
was laying an unjust tribute upon all
the people for the benefit of the spec
ial manufacturing combines and cor
porations, who furnished the cam
paign Doodle to elect the Taft repub-
Incan party to power and we are
glad to welcome the day of the over
throw of the Taft and corporation
rule, dictated by Wall street banks
and bankers and we hail with de-
light the Underwood reduction tariff
bill as pledged in the national plat
form at Baltimore and the relief that
the new currency bill and the wise
commercial interest and care OF plac-
ing the government regional banks
in the many great business centers
OF the country to help relieve every
section in time of need and thus re-
moving the grip of Wall street from
the throat of our government treas
ury and returning to government
of the people by the people and for
the people in lieu of government OF
the banks for the banks and by the
banks. We point with pride and
great satisfaction to the record of W..
J. Bryan and VIM. McAdoo in defeat
ing the trick of Wall street bankers
and preventing a money panic by
sending millions of dollars to Des
Moines, Kansas City, Chicago and St..
Louis to relieve the people during
crop movement and thus defeating
the republican prophecy of panic
inside of six months.
We commend the administration
of foreign policy as democratic and
in true keeping with our information
al obligations. We approve of and
endorse President Wilson's policy in
dealing with the Panama and Next
can situations as wise and just and
we promise such loyal aid and sup
port as we are able to perform to
maintain and support the present
Wilson administration in fulfilling
it's promises to the American people
and carrying out it's successful adj
ministration as it has commenced.
We demand the overthrow of Gov
ernor Clarke and his standpat party
in Iowa at the coming November
election, believing they have exceed
ed their authority in trying to sad
die an uncalled for and exhorbitant
priced state house grounds to enrich
a few real estate sharks of Des
Moines at the expense of the people
and taxpayers of the state and with
a view Of giving Des Moines prestige
over other Iowa cities, which is un-
patriotic and unjust to our taxpayers
and unfriendly and unkind to other
Iowa cities. We demand equal rights
to all and special privilege to no one
and we commend our democratic
leader, v. r. McGinnis, to the people
OF Iowa, as just and safe and fair
man, 70 know him IS to trust him.
and we endorse. him as our choice for

DIES AT THE AGE OF 1O5 YEARS
Mrs. Jestin johnson, of Near Spick-
ard, Was the Oldest Resident i'm
Northwest Missouri.

With the death of Mrs. Jestin
Johnson, at her home eight miles
southwest of Spickard Monday night,
passed the Oldest resident OF Grundy
county and one Of the pioneers of
northwest Missouri. Though relatives
are not positive as to her exact age,
Mrs. Johnson was known to have
been at least 105 years old. Her
exhaustion, followed an illness of but
short duration, her condition having
been surprisingly strong until few
months ago, says the Trenton Repub-
lican.
Mrs. johnson was born in Low
Gap, North Carolina. With her hus-
band, Alvin Johnson, she came to
Missouri in 1887, driving across the
country over trails worn by but little
travel and lined on either side by
dense forests. They secured pat
ent on eighty acres of land in Harri-
son county and on that farm Mrs.
Johnson resided until her death. Her
husband has been dead about thirty
years.
Born and reared in the mountains
with 40 schools and but few oppor-
tunities to learn from any other
sources Mrs. Johnson never knew
her own age and it was only by
means Of comparison with other old
settlers that relatives and neighbors
were able to draw any conjecture as
to her age. Mrs. Johnson has seen
this part of the country grow from a
mere tract of wild forest to one Of
the most up-to-date communities in
the United States. When she came
back here it was necessary to go to
Brunswick, Mo-, for food provisions.
Trenton was but a small settlement
and means of travel and communca-
ton but few.

Death of Max Greeley.

Max Joseph Greeley, son Of Editor
Horace Greeley, of the Grand River
Local, died at the home of his father
in Grand River on Thursday, May
7th, at the age of p years, 6 months
and 20 days. He had been in failing
health for more than a year and his
death was not unexpected. Max
came to Grand River with his father
a few years ago and assisted him in
the publication of the paper. He
was an exemplary and popular young
man, who had many friends who
mourn his death. The sympathy of
the entire community goes to his
grief stricken father and other rela-
tives. He was buried in the Wheels
cemetery, funeral services being con-

Allen, Secretary of State, has ruled
that township candidates have until
May 16 to file nomination papers. AL
though the law permitted candidates
to have their names placed on the
primary ballot by filing an individual
affidavit prior to thirty days before
the primary. it makes provision that
other candidates can get on the ticket
by filing nomination papers signed
by ten or more voters, accompanied
by an affidavit of candidacy, fifteen

Separate Judiciary Ballots.

1t took Judge McHenry of the Polk
county district court just 5 minutes
to decide, and the supreme court less
time to affirm the decision, that
special ballots must be provided for
those who have no recognition on the
regular party ballots, to vote for the
non-partisan judiciary candidates at
the primary. Action was brought at
the instance of the prohibition party,
which has been ruled off the regular
ballot because of the light vote cast
two years ago. The names of candi-
dates for judgeships will be printed
on the regular ballot of each recog-
nized political party, and in addition
separate ballots will be provided for
these outsiders.

things more important than creeds
and doctrines. Girls of any denomi-
nation or those belonging to no
church at all are welcomed into our
classes. Philathea classes are found
in all of the protestant denominat-
ions. (5) The name Philathea with
its thousands of members serves as
a stimulus to girls to do their best.
They are proud of the class and
feel drawn to the sister classes of
the great movement by common
tie in a common cause. Thus our
vision, including the entire nation,
is much broader than that of a local
class.
The Philalheas are destined to fill
an important place in the christian
ling Of the world. Philathea classes
are now educating poor girls, reliev-
ing distress among the sick and I'M
fortunate, clothing orphans and do
ing scores of other things that are
worth while. Are we proud of our
national organization? Are we proud
OF the fact that our OLD North State
stands first among the states Of the
union in Baraca and Pnilathea work?
Ii so, let us strive to swell the ranks
by doing our best for our own class
and by organizing new classes. II
we are true Philatheas and love the
truth we will not rest contented I'M
Ill we seek and find that truth and
then give it to others. In our work
we are ever encouraged by the as
surance Christ gives us in these

THE PHlLATHEA CLASS and ITS WORK


be so called for women now oc-
cupieS very different place from
that which she held hundred
years >go. Then for the first time
women met together and organized
themselves for defnate social and
religious work. Early in the century
various Women's Missionary So
cletles, agencies by which untold
good has been accomplished, were
organized; the latter part of the
century gave birth to the great
Philathea movement, suitable
climax to the progress of those hun
dred years.
A few years after Father Hudson
began his work among the Barracks,
several young women of Syracuse
realized that there was defnate
need for special work among the
young women of their church. As
result they Cr5aniZed, in 1888,
class which they called "P.lilathea."
This name is derived from the Gree:
and means Lovers of t e truth" It
and our motto we do things" based
on Paul's words Of faith, Il can do
all things through Christ who
strengthened me, set a lofty ideal
toward which all Philatheas with
the true class spirit ever striv1 Dur
ing the sixteen years its existence
the movement has spread with
marvellous rapidity until now the
four thousand chartered Philatnea
classes are scattered over a territory
greater than the United States
In the last few years the church
activities have been greatly broad
ened until now the various organ
iZationS of the church, each with
its particular mission, holu place
scarcely second TO the preaching
service itself. So the Sunday Scnool

tie organized class is the BIGGEST
Il der OF the church today" The
? ilathea class does not try to usurp
place Of any other class in the
) lday School. 1t is intended for
girls too old for intermediate work
and too young for advanced Bible
classes. The Philathea work is
especially adapted to girls from six
teen years old on and the work is
mrde as interesting as possible.
Opening eXercisis are sometimes
held in our classes and the interest
is increased by arranging for special
feaeures as often as possible. Differ
enc girls lead the devotional exer-
clses. A model class teacher always :
