Modern ideas are repugnant to
Bishop II. C.. Morrison, of the
Methodist Episcopal church south,
who presided over a conference
here last week, particularly the
latter day doctrines concerning
Heaven and He'll.
"The man who begins to waver
on any of the cardinal teachings of
the bible is going backward" says
Bishop Morrison. "The Book
teaches us there is a real heaven
and a real hell, and believe in
them explicitly. 1t is the work OF
the devil, this up to date way OF
referring to hell as a theory, or a
punisement on earth, The bib''
tells us there is a hell, which has
terrible torments, and there is sure
ly such a place"

JAMES E. BENNETT ASSAlLS THE
TRADE COMMISSION BILL
(By Associated Press)

Washington, Feb. 10.-The admins
tration trade commission bill was as,
sailed as unfair and unconstitutional
before the house commerce commit
tee today.
James E. Bennett, representing a
score of small corporations, said that
the inquisitorial powers given the
commission by this bill would be
worse than anything in Russia" He
said that it would ruin the small cor
porations by opening their secrets to
their larger competitors. He also de-
clared that it would provide berths
for many special Investigators, whose
only qualification would be a "politi-
cal pull" This, he declared, would
open the "loveliest graft of the cen,
tury"

BURIED COLORS IN GARDEN
Romantic English Village Tradition Is
Fulfilled by Finding of the
Standards.

London. After being whispered
down through more than 20 years, a
village tradition has been strangely
justified in the West Sussex village
of Huntington, near Chichester.
In 1896 Mr.. John Anderton Green
wood bought the old residence known
as Huntington house. He heard at the
time of a tradition that the colors of
the Fiftieth regiment were buried in
the garden.
Il thought it was just gossip and
paid no attention to it," he said re-
Gently, but few days ago my head
gardener, while laying chalk under my
tennis courts to drain it, turned up
the remains Of the colors."
Mr.. Greenwood showed the newly
discovered fragments, which had been
carefully laid out and as far as posi-
BILE placed together on sheet of pa
per- There were about six inches of
each pole left, with the brass orna-
ments at the top intact. some gilded
tassels and bits of gilded cord. frag-
ment of what appeared to be silk
embroidered oak leaf, and number
of letters embroidered in gold that
had evidently formed part of the
names of battles in which the old regi-
ment took part
The only letters which were still
held together by a fragment of silk
were, curiously enough, the royal mon
ogram. &c r."
mo one has ever been able to tell
why the colors were buried said Mr..
Greenwood. Gen. Sir James Duff,
who died at the house in 1889, was
colonel of the .Fiftieth regiment from
1898 to his death.
General Duf's widow died some
years later than her husband. and, so
far as / know, no member Of the fam
lily has lived here since 1850. I have
been talking with an officer of the
regiment, now retired, who has been
over from Portsmouth to see the rel
les. The shafts of the poles bear evil
dence of having been cut Off"
The colors were found about Is
inches below the surface. An old vii
lager declares that the place was for

TO ENTER POLITICS
Young Bryan viii Practice Law
Out in Arizona.
Son of Secretary of State Will Also
Undoubtedly Become a Factor in
the Political Contest of His
New Home.

Tucson, AriZ-When it was an
nounced recently that William Jen-
nings Bryan, Jr.. had been admitted to
the bar in Arizona people asked
whether he was going in for politics,
as did his father. The answer is, yes.
The question, Should young man
go into politics?" has been asked of
statesmen, governors, mayors and
lesser politicians so often that there
has come to be standard answer to
It. That answer is by all means.
Young men, the best men are needed
in politics. Every man, young or old,
should take an interest in his govern
ment, for it is Only in that way that
good government can be assured"
This is the sense in which young
Mr. Bryan answered the question, and
he added: AS for holding office, /
know of no office that care to hold
OF course he is a Democrat
Up to the present time he has not
taken much of a part in Arizona poll
tics. Just now he is more interested
in the law and he thinks that the law
of Arizona is of such character and
in such state of development that 1t
would be of absorbing interest to any
lawyer.
In what branch of law will you
Specialize?" he was asked
Mining, irrigation and lands"
Mr.. Bryan has been in Arizona five
years. He is not heavy set like his
father, but slender and 1.-THE. He is
the picture of health. He has record
as quarterback at Culver Military
academy and a record as oarsman in
the cutter; he knows every foot of
groung within 40 miles of Tucson, he
has hunted through the surrounding
mountains for deer, rabbits, squirrels,
quail and ducks, and he drives his car
about town and to the ranch of Alex
ander Berger, his father-in-law, %
miles from Tucson, near a place called
Vail.
"A fellow has to have a broader
foundation in the law in Arizona than
in the east" he said to the correspond
ent. For instance, the law on water
rights is different in the west from
what it is in Massachusetts and other
eastern states.
In Massachusetts the doctrine or
riparian rights obtains. If a stream
runs through mans premises he
owns that stream no matter whether
he uses the water or not He may
desire to simply to beautify his place.
The Ocala banner. (Ocala, Marion County, Fla.) 1883-194?, 1914-02-13

Here the ownership of water is based
on its beneficial use.
This is a new state. In many in
stances the law has not been exactly
determined. One has to know the law
in other states as well as Arizona de-
cisions. Frequently one has to dig
back. There is less routine than in a
lawyers work back east.
Opportunities are far more numer-
Gus here. There are chances for intel
ligent investment
Il don't intend to leave Tucson.
Phoenix, the capital, is place of east
ern climate set down in Arizona That
is to say, the humidity is great there
on account of the extensive irrigation.
The ground is saturated.
1.-The standard set for admission to
the bar here is high. The personnel Of
the bar is high.
1.-The climate and the picturesque
ness of the country have their attrac-
lions. Go back east and you can spot
a western man as soon as you see him
They seem to be more sincere than
fasteners. 1t is because they are not
so 'formal"
Young MFR. Bryan went from Culver
academy to Nebraska State university
at Lincoln, where he spent three years.
He studied at the University OF Ari-
iona in Tucson and was president of
the athletic association. He took the
elementary course in law. From May.
1912, until February. 1913, he was abb
sent from Tucson and during this
period he studied law. for half year
ct Georgetown university in Washing
ton, d. c.. taking the first and sec
oRd years work At intervals he has
studied in the Office of Frank H. Here
ford and Frank E. Curley at Tucson.
Mr.. Hereford is one of the best known
attorneys in the west. Mr.. Curley is
city attorney OF Tucson. He will con-
tinue to be associated with them.

MONoPLANE AND BIPLANE COL
LlDE WITH FATAL RESULT
(By Associated Press

Johannisthal, Germany, Feb. TO-
One aviator is dead and two others
seriously injured as a result of a mid
air collision here today between a
monoplane and a biplane. The occu-
pants of the biplane were Sedlmayer,
an experienced air-man, and Lieuten-
ant Leonhardi of the German army.
Circling one hundred feet above the
aerdome they crashed into the mono
plane, in which was Degner, an avia-
ton pupil, who was making his first
independent fight. Both machines
and their occupants were hurled to
the ground. Degner was dead when
he was removed from the wreckage,
the others, however, will probably
live.

SECRET BODIES OF CHINESE
These Societies Are Held Responsible.
for the Recent Increase of
Crime.

Shanghai-The Chinese genius for
secret societies is well known, and at
the present time this genius is making
itself felt in Shanghai in rather un-
pleasant way. Recently there has
been an abnormal prevalence of
crime.
In some cases this is due to politi-
cal revenge, as when recently a we'll

ionable Chinese street, the Foochow
road, was shot dead In the presence of
a crowd of passersby, and the assas-
brigandage pure and simple. Recently

tial part of the French concession.

was attacked by band of masked
men and the principal shop looted.
Many of these criminals are ex
rebel soldiers, men who donned civil
ian dress when the attack on the
arsenal failed and vanished in the
crowd, and investigation indicates
that there is a considerable number
of small gangs banded together and
affiliated to parent organization, Of
which the headquarters are Soochow.
A Chinese detective sent up from
here to track a criminal was caught
by the society, and only by great good
luck escaped with his life. There is a

to get away as simple countryman
when the society takes care Of him

Another society enjoys the pictur-
esque name of the Band of the Thirty
had that number of members. Its
business is decidedly sordid-nothing
more than robbing the baggage of Chi
nese passengers travelling by one OF
the innumerable boats and ferries
coming to or going from Shanghai's
wharves The band drives a lucra-
tive trade and, if report speaks true,
the head of it is a most (outwardly)
respectable compradore-a kind of
Chinese Arsene Lupin.
There are other societies, half po-
litical, half criminal. Such are the
Hung Pong and the Using Pong, the
Red and Green bands and at the trial
of that remarkable nan, Tung Kwe-
shing-who instigated the famous
Sung Chiao-jen murder on the eve of
the opening of parliament, and ulti-
mately escaped from prison during
the late rebellion-a great deal was
heard of the ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS, or
Peoples Progressive society. in the
ranks of which were all the despera-
does of the district. In fact there is
no doubt that the terror of this soci-
ETY., in which Tung Kwe-shing had i'm
mense influence, prevented the Chi
nese authorities from ever bringing
Tung to trial.

RATES NEED NOT BE RAISED

The following letter has been re-
ceived from MIR. Lloyd S. Tenney,
secretary and manager of the Flori-
da Growers and Shippers League:
To the Members of the Florida
Growers and Shippers League:
On February 1st there was a gen
eral reduction in express rates over
the United States. This reduction
was made at the order of the Inter
state Commerce Commission. 1t
seems that in making the changes,
the rates on fruits and vegetables
shipped from Florida were increased
rather than decreased. There seems
TO be some question as to the right
of the express companies in making
the increases, but the fact remains
that the rates now demanded by the
express agents, are greater than they
, were before the first of the month
( These increases have no doubt, come
! from the fact that the old rates were
already below those ordered by the
Interstate Commerce Commission
We trust that these changes have
been made through a misunder-
standing in the traffic department of
the express company.
On January 29th the Florida
Growers and Shippers League sent
a telegram to the Interstate Com
merce Commission asking that the
increased rates be suspended until a
full investigation of the question
could be made. Many similar tele-
grams were sent by other interested
parties. The commission answered
thru its secretary as follows:
You are advised that the commits
sion declined to suspend the opera
ton OF said increased rates. but
this action is without prejudice to
your right to file formal complaint"
In instances throughout the state
the express agents are giving out the
information that it is necessary for
them to collect the increased rates,
since they have been ordered by the
commission. This is not true. The
Interstate Commerce Commission is
prohibited by law from ordering any
increases in freight or express rates
If the express companies had rates
lower than were ordered by the
commission, they were perfectly at
liberty to keep these lower if they
so desired.
1t is the opinion of your manager
that before doing anything further,
an attempt should be made to secure
a reduction, at least to the old rates,
through a personal interview with
the managers of the express COM
pany Steps have already been TAX
en- by this league to this end. L be-
lieve these men are too good bust
ness men not to see that an increase
in rates will injure the state, there
fore the business of their company.
Failing in this, there remains only
the filing of a formal complaint be-
fore the Interstate Commerce Com
mission. l should like to have an
expression from you of the advisa
bility of doing this.

Curling, Newfoundland, Feb. 10
Much concern is felt for thirty-six
men who are aboard the United States
navy tug Potomac, which has been
missing in the ice fields since Satur-
day. When the binding snowstorm
of five days had passed it was ex-
pected that the tug might be sighted
off shore, but she could not be looat-
ed. 1t is thought that she has been
caught in the ice foes far out in the
