GOVERNOR ODDIE AND

Especial to the Silver state.l

NINA, New, Oct. 27-The determ-
ined stand of Governor Tasker l..
Oddie to keep the name of Nevada
clean is winning for him hundreds of
votes throughout the entire state, ac-
cording to reports received here this
morning.
The Governor. accompanied by J..
Lozano, AL w. Holmes, b. F. Curler,
Matthew Kyle and Andy J. Stinson,
arrived here late last night on their
way to Hawthorne and Aurora, where
they are scheduled to speak this af-
ternoon and this evening. In every
town they are holding meetings that
eclipse any former political gather
ings in point of attendance and en-
thusiasm. The easy divorce and gam
bling questions, which are the live is
sues of the campaign, seem certain to
bring the Republicans in victorious
on November Sd.
The party spent yesterday at Tono-
pah and Goldfield in individual cam
paigning with the voters.

Becoming convinced, about two

speaker of the evening. He devoted
considerable time in explaining the

He also failed to say anything
about Jimmy Finch drawing a salary
of 81, 400 a year as messenger to a
senate committee, when the only err
rands he has ever run have been of
political nature in Nevada, in the
Newlands interest.
Senator Pittman closed the meeting
with an address, devoted principally
to telling hnw he and Newlands and
Wilson have succeeded in averting
war with Mexico and the European
powers.

things not covered by the treaty. They
are the extreme things, such as con-
duct affecting cur vital interests. our
independence, our national honor or
the rights of third parties in whom we
have an interest. This treaty with

from the state department and rati-

Japan is not the first to sign up under
the policy OF arbitration. but has not
been negligently slow in ratifying it.
Ratification by Japan is another
proc OF the progress of that nation in
civilization and of it's genuine good
will for the United States, particularly
at a time when perhaps that cOun-
try has some cause for complaint on
account OF discrimination against the
Japanese in California and other

japan has always felt grateful to the
United States for the part this coun-
try played in opening the door to the
Orient from the west and giving the
Japanese people the opportunity they
needed to make them a great nation

The arbitration treaties sent out by
the state department are a detail of a
comprehensive peace plan which it is
hoped will lead eventually to disarma-

not because fraud ought not to be

that might come to the canal if the
fraud had been perpetrated.
There has been much apprehen-
sion in the public mind as to the
slides in the Culehra cut and some
fear as to the effect of earthquakes.
But it was assumed all along that the
work of construction had been done
in the most honest and workmanlike
manner. 1t was not even imagined
that rotten steel would be supplied.
But such is the charge now publicly
made by federal grand jury. And
federal grand juries do not act lightly
or from motives OF passion or re-
venge. We hear much these days

When a city builds a church it
proves its progress. South Bend has
built many in the past eighty years
or more and each new one is larger
and finer and better adapted TO popu-
lar worship than the last A friendly
rivaly among the several denomina-
tions represented here has placed our
most prominent church buildings in
a class with the best in the larger
cities.
The churches OF South Bend are a
feature TO which citizens point with
pride and which excite the admiration
OF visitors. Those erected in late years
show the improvements made by mod
ern ideas in church architecture. In
a number Of instances there Is a mark
ed abandonment OF what had become
the conventional in American churches
at least IN the smaller cities and
towns. The idea has been to pre-
serve health and comfort at the ex-
pense OF mere conformity TO ancient
customs. and. what is quite import
ant. IL has become fashionable for
congregations 10 have the money to
pay for a new church when IT is COM
pleted
The church debt, a nightmare of
distress which church people have
been accustomed to have hanging over
them perpetually. is becoming a thing
Of the past, an unhappy memory.
Nowadays when a congregation makes
up its mind II needs a new church it
first decides on what kind Of church it
wants TO build and what Il will cost,
and then goes out and gets the money.
In some instances, like that Of the
First Methodist Episcopal church. it
is not necessary TO go outside the con-
gregation TO raise all the money
needed. The First Methodist, one of
the pioneers Of South Bend. had a val
liable property in it's old building and
site. With that and some forty
thousand dollars raised in one day the
trustees closed the subscription list.
We haven't become sufficiently accus-
toned to this manner of conducting
church business to regard 1t as a COM
mOnplace performance.
The church built by this congrega-
ton on n. Main st. is not only beau
tiful building. but the congregation
got its moneys worth in the comfort
and satisfaction it will extract from
worshiping in a church which meets
all the requirements Of modern knowl-

FINE SHOWING.

There is ground for believing that
the pendulum is swinging backward
from the arrogant materialism OF the
past years, and that there is now
manifest a genuine spiritual rejuven-
escence.
A minor evidence Of this belief is
to be found in the report Of In
vestigators of the religious affiliations
OF the students at the Ohio State uni
versity.
1t has not been so long ago that
our universities were regarded as the
breeding places OF doubt, as doubt is
defined by the orthodox and there
may still be something OF truth IN
the charge that this is so, but scrace-
ly In the sense that students repudiate
religion. Forms and creeds do not
constitute religion.
So far as the Ohio state is con-
cerned. we are informed that IL per
cent Of the students attend some
form OF worship regularly; % per
