Over 1 ,sOo, 900 are learn- ing the way of ChFdst1anity in the S0,- 900 colleges, theological senninaries, training and Sunday schools that have been established by American mis- sIonaEfea. The modern missionary is not only a spiritual adviser, but un- dertalkes to cure physical ills as well. In the 500 hospitals and free dispeu- saries established in foredgn lands, it is estimated that 3,0O0, ,0O0, ,O00 treat- naemts have been given by the 400 male and female doctors making mp the Foreign Missionary Medical stafa. In times of famine they distribute huge sums of money. The expenses of this vast campaign are enormous; but no country is as liberal as the United States. Last year the Amer ican people contributed nearly $17,- 0O0,0 to promote the work, while all nations are spending about @S6,- O00, ,00O to support t1leir "A, 900 Chris tian and 112, 900 native missionaries who have gathered over 1000, 900 ad- herents in the faith.

GOVERNOR URGES
 GUIDE POSTS IN
 STATE FOR AUTOS
Law Requires But He Has No ticed Many Cases Where
 Marks Were Absent.


 Hartford, July 28-HHany mile has Governor Baldwin walked over the highways of the state and more miles have been covered by hiTn on his bicycle. He has. apparently, found that many -four corners'' were not properly marked by guide posts for today in a letter to the se1ectmen of towns he calls attention to the law which makes such an officer liable to g fine of $5 for each and every fail- ure to properly mark the roads. He also points out that guide posts are mobihsts
 In the letter, the. governor says TT desire. to call your attention to the present statute regarding guide posts. Formerly there was a forfeit ure by the town where they were not set up or kept up now the selectnnen kare personally. liable tb 2. criminal prosecution and fine Formerly guide posts were required only where it was necessary or convenient for the direction of travellers: now they are required at every four corners or other

They ars peculiarly important in these days of automobiling and traveling far from one's home. We wish to make Connecticut as favorite resort for automobilists of other states. Plenty of guide posts would help materially towards this end. The constitution of Connecticut makes its my duty to take care that the laws be faithfully executed. have little doubt that in your town there are some and probably many highway crossings uufurntshed with the guide posts required by law. therefore write to put the obligation of the town and of you as it's agent plainly before you in the hops that this coTnmunicat may result in a. better observance of the require quirements of the law throughout the state.s,

THE DUBLIN HOAGICIDEs

TIT HE RIOTS in Dublin with their attendant
 1 hornicides grow out of the effort of Irish volunteers to show that they could run arms into Ireland with the same certainty as the similar feat had been practiced by Ulster Volunteers The Kings Own Scotch borderers had been detailed to stop the entrance of the weapons.
 Taking all the facts into consideration it seems as if the shooting done by the soldiers was entirely unnecessary. It had even less jus tification than the shooting which is so fre- qnent in labor troubles in this country.
 Citizens were engaged in an unlawful act but the act did not carry the death penalty, and there was no occasion for summary execution if there had been 6 death penalty. It was 8 case of criminal stupidity on the part of some body.
 The Scotch borderers are to be removed from Dublin, and ought to be- The man respon- sible for the order to shoot-if there be such a one ought to be court-martiaHed

The first American foreign raiEaiurl society was the outgrowth Of the fa- nous "hayseack prayer mestine'' held at Willamstowns Mass. 10S years ago today, July .28, 1905. A number of students of Williams College held an open-air prayer neesfng on that his toric date, and a sudden storm forced them to seek shelter by the side Or a haystack. There they continued their devotions and came to @ high resolve which was to devote their lives to the work Of foreign missions and t1a standardization Of heathen peoples. Al an outgrowth of the haystack meeting- a secret society of college students was formed. all of whom determined to take up foreign mission work.

THE STANDARD MAY REJOICE OVER
 THE RATE CASE, BUT THE GAS
 MONOPOLY HAS NO JOY BECAUSE OF IF
E ESTEEMED Bridgeport

gWNHE ESTEEMED Bridgeport Standard
 4 which has & chivalrous regard for burst into succession of verbal and pictorial FceIebra tions over the decision in the gase case
 We fear, however, there is not the same rejoicing in gas circles that exists in the of flee of The Standard, because, being more ex- perienceds there, they know that the glorious days of large profits are over.
 Our contemporary may have noted that the stockholders of this company put into it in cash, altogether no more than $850OOO and that they have property worth $3,0Oo,0Oo for rate making purposes, and more for taxation.
 It will ls further noted that this surplus the difference between $85O,O0O and S3,O00,0O0 was built up from profits at much higher rate than the company will hereafter be permitted to make.
 This surplus never could have been accu- mulated at the expense of the consumer if a public utilities action had been possible thirty or event twenty years ago.
 It never will be possible again. The gas company is to have rate of profit at about six per cent. and no more That is a fair profit and it is entitled to it.
 Two main benefits have been derived for the public from these proceedings.
 f. The capitalization of excess profit, or surplus against the public has been stopped.
 ?. The value of the property for taxation has been determined.
 When these proeee eedings were commenced the property of this company was taxed in all jurisdictions upon total value of but $1,8o0,- IOoO at the very moment when the same com pany reported it's values at more than $3,OOO,- l00O.
 If is scarcely thinkabIe that the gas com pany will longer evade the taxation of the other $1 100000, or that-in these days of tax reform the officials who hold the taxing power will permit them to do so.
 Altogether we should say there is direct benefit to the public from this action of at least E$4O,OOO a year. The capitalization of surplus at something like $2O,OOO year has been stop ped. There will be derived from taxation and additional sum of $20oo0 a year.
 This is why the rejoicing is confined to friendly newspaper offices, and is strictly for public consumption.
 Doubtless Representatives Wilson and Mo- Murray would have been better pleased if there had been a reduction of rate which is the spec tacular end of rate regulation.
 But it is reasonably certain that these gen substantial features of their action, as with the reduction which now cannot be long de- layed, because the power to absorb and capi- taIize surplus has been taken away. There are other features of the rate case, advantageous to the public, which may be hereafter considered.

DEMANDS PUBLIC HONORs
 FOR DUBLIN RIOT DEAD


 Philadelphia, July 2s-sWe beg that Ethe victims of the lawIess violence of the British government in Dublin may be buried with public honors, and that every Irish volunteer corps now armed should march to the grave with the rifles these people died to safeguard. ?.
 This message was cabled today by Sir Roger Easement, now in this city, to Professor E. McNei1 chairman of the provisional committee of the Irish 1 Volunteers Dublin
 Sir Roger denounced the attempt to seize the landed rifles of the Irish Vol unteers as 'Iawless violence.'s He pre- dicted that the act would have the effect Of arousing Irishnen all over the world to the injustice of allowing the U1stermen to arm while forcibIy and murderous1ys seeking to prevent the same thing by the Nationalists. 1

Auditorium
Will Make Handsome
Appearance for Show
Fargo and Moorhead Automobile Men Are Going to Civ
the Public a Splendid Exhibition Next Week
Gate City Auto Show Promises to Be the Finest of It's Kind
Ever Presented in Entire Northwest

When the doors Of FargO's new au-
ditorium are thrown open for h first
time to the public next Wednesday
afternoon and evening, 1t will be for
the first automobile show ever given
in either the cities Of Fargo or
Moorhead.
Although it is the first attempt on
the part of the automobile dealers Of
he two cities at an exhibition, it will
lbo the finest ever held in the entire
northwest. That is u pretty broad
statement, considering -verT find
exhibitions have been held in Mime
apolis and st. Paul. Nevertheless 1t
is true. This will eclipse anything OF
its kind ever attempted IN TINS entlre
section of the country.
While the new auditorium is yet in
complete, it will be made to present a
handsome appearance on tho interior
so tina after once passing through the
main entrance, there will be no trace
of the unfinished outside to remind the
visitor of the present condition OF the
building.
The show is going to be elaborate
in every detail. Every dealer in the
two cities of Fargo and Moorhead will
have splendid exhibits which no one,
either automobile driver, owner, pro
spective purchaser OIL pedestrian can
afford to miss, for every late model
will be displayed. People should make
it a point to see them just as a means
of education regarding automobiles
and the improvements that have been
made in the horselesS vehicles.
During the week BaerenSteinS Con-
cert orchestra of ten pieces will render
a fine programme every afternoon
and evening, which will be in keeping
with the spirit Of the show.
The walls Of the armOry in the
auditorium will be handsomely decor
ated for the occasion by the Hall
Decorating CO., Of Minneapolis. The
design is patterned after tho New
York automobile show at Madison
Square garden, the decorations alone
costing nearly $20,0 00. While that much
is not being spent on tn decorations
for the Gate City show, a consider
able amount is, so that it will be a
miniature of the New York show.
w. NJ. Ball, manager of the show,
and A. Y. More, president Of the show,
have, given every attention to all the
details and their reputation as auto
mobile men is such that the public
can rest assured that this will he the
greatest event of its kind ever at
tempted in this city.
The exhibits themselves will be
quite out of the ordinary. The dealers
are spending much time and money
on them and deserve special atten-
tion.
