WHITE

From the Leader:
Rev. Ed. H. L~ewandowski has with,
drawn from the German M. E. confer
says: "He would rather be right than
a German Methodist preacher" This
move on the part of Mr.. Lewandowski
was caused by an apparently unjusti-
fed act of the District Superintendent
whom we understand greatly misrep-
resented things at their annual confer
ence. AS a matter of fact Mr.. Lewan-
dowski stands above reproach in this
locality where he has lived for the
past two years and where people have
had ample opportunity to become ac-
quainted with him. In his own church
the people of both congregations sup
ported him to a man and demanded
his return to this field for another
year This, we understand the district
superintendent promised on his last
visit to White but at the conference
he seemed to have forgotten his pro-
mise, as a consequence the people both
at White and at Sterling are greatly
disappointed. Rev. Lewandowski will
remain in White where his services
will be open to the public. The de-
cision to withdraw from the confer
ence and remain in White was made
by him as he desired to remain here
and face any lies that enemies may
start concerning him and to live them
down. He has the confidence of the
business men of the town and of the
whole community as well as his former
church people. We are glad to have
him remain with us as a man of his
ability will be of material help in
building a greater and better White.

the work in the Office, having been en-
ployed there at intervals, and will be
perfectly reliable. S. Erickson, the
venerable retiring officer, has held the
position for over thirty years,-since
July 25, 1884. OF course, when he
started up business" for the govern
ment it wasn't a particularly paying
proposition for him but the few people
who were here at that time wanted a
little mail dished out to them occasion
ally, anyway, and he undertook the
job. For thirty long years he has
served Uncle Sam well and there has
been no complaint, either on the part
of the department nor Nj. Erickson,
although the feeswas for a long time
pretty small, and at the present time
isn't very remunerative, when the ex-
pense attached is considered. AL
though we have no statistics in the
matter, Mr.. Erickson is perhaps n of
the oldest, if not the oldest, retiring
postmaster in the state, from a point
of service as well as age. His regime
has been one of f%aithfulness and Uncle
Sam, with the patrons he has served,
can well extend him a vote of thanks.

can ports. Undoubtedly England is
within its legitimate rights, but the
chances are that its attitude in polio
ing Sandy Hook will not add to popu,
lar interest in celebrating the signing
of the treaty of Client, and one hundred
years of peace between the United
States and the Mother country.
London tells us that England is an,
noyed at constant talk Of mediation,
and may seek repraisals from the
United States in commercial matters.
Washington asserts that no plan for
mediation has been suggested, and the
politicians declare that our govern,
ment, while neuatral, is still inclined
to truckle to Great Britain. At the
moment any suggestions looking to-
wards peace appear on of place.
Thousands of people feel that the les
son has not yet been fully learned,
and that Europe and the civilized
world must be brought to the certain
knowledge, before this conflict ends,
that peace, when it comes, must be
enduring for all time-and that never
again must there be a great war be
tween civilized nations.
They sing their national airs before
the newspaper Offices, these foreign
born; at other times they argue the
rights of the ~contending armies-and
then again when some horrible, blood
curdling new is being posted, these
great blocks of humanity stand dumb,
as though the terrible thing was I'M
%believable. But there apparently is
no feeling between these men of many
nations. During a spirited argument
l saw a man push his way forward,
and he declared: 81 never saw a
Frenchman and a German, or a Rus
sian, Austrian, or E%nglishman who
had anything against n another"
The crowd composed of all these
classes approved-and he went on:
"The politicians make the wars, the
bankers finance them, and the people
are fools enough to fight them" My
noisy friend who said this made a hit.
