The Altoona pastor who has de.
clined an increase of salary is setting
a bad example. Few clergymen are
overpaid, most are shamefully under
paid. Congregations need no encour-
agement to reduce salaries or to keep
them at their present low level. The
salary of the minister who has just
refused raise" is now S2,400. 1t
was proposed to give him an increase
of $500, but he pointed out that i'm
provements to be made to the church
will impose heavy financial burdens
on the congregation and he prefers to
wait until the treasury Is in better
shape.
Employees in other professions and
lines of business have learned from
experience that the time to take
raise Is when you can get 1t. After
tapping once at the door, opportunity
is loath to grant an encora. 1t will
be generally agreed that in a city the
size of Altoona $2,700 a year is not an
excessive income with which to bring
up and educate a family and maintain
the style of living expected from
minister. as we'll as to meet the inces-
SAINT demands of charity upon his
purse. Particularly is this so In view
of the fact that few denominations
make any adequate provision for their
clergymen when they shall have fin
ished their period of active usefulness.
At best the pension is sufficient merely
to keep body and soul together, though
efforts are now making to remedy this
deplorable condition. 1t is difficult to
see, therefore, why any minister of
the gospel should feel deiicacy in
accepting additional compensation. In
the majority of cases 1t is more Inn
portant that he and those dependent
upon him should benefit by the in
creased pay than that the church
building should be fitted with a new
steeple or stained glass windows.

tions that have made some of our

principle and those about to do so.
The fifty official city planning commits
sions in the United States and Canada

Harrisburg, on the eve of going seri-

ENGLAND AND THE u. S.

finds among other things in that
country that 10000 people die every
year from tuberculosis and 300. 900
suffer from it, and that this terrible
disease is caused by a lack of con-
veniences and decencies of life. Fresh
air and sanitary surroundings are
needed. Tenants, however, can have
no say as to how the shelters in which
they exist shall be ordered or policed.
She finds that England has an area
of 100000 acres and population
of 100000. More than one-half
the land is owned by $500 persons.
Less than 10000 people own two
thirds of the total land of Scotland.
Ireland and England. There are 30,-
100000 people that have not any land
at all, and consequently not any homes
of their own. The average amount of
land owned by the British peer is 15,-
owns over million acres. The aver
age land owned by the British cot
tagtr is one-quarter of an acre.
She finds that the annual income of
Great Britain, from land and rent. is
about $4S,000,000 a week. About one
half of this goes to 100000 people,
whose annual income ranges from
$500 up. There are 100000 that
are 80 poor that they cannot provide
the necessaries of life. The average
wage of these is $500 week. The
average wage of the 100000 indus
trial women is S1.75 a week. The pau-

We are moving inN the same direc-

industrial depression that can mean
only idleness or lower wages for thou

that a dirty city is invariably

THE RETURN OF THE SALUTE
TFrom the New York Sun I

[From the New York SUM-
The new Regulations of the United
States Navy, promulgated on February
25, 1893, contained for the first time
this provision as to salutes:
mo salute shall be fired in honor of
any nation not formally recognized by
the Government of the United States"
Under President Roosevelt and Presi-
dent Taft this regulation figured as
Number 129 in the code, and was thus
expressed:
"No salute shall be fired in honor of
any nation, or of any official of any
nation, not formally recognized by the

L of the Democracy who are now
pledging ,upport to the nomi-
nees Of the May primary while venom
ously denouncing their party rivals
as bipartisan crooks, have evidently
forgotten their previous attitude
toward Republicans who also pledged
support to their party nominees. Time
was when these same political fakirs
found the English language made
quate to express their censure of Re-
publtcans who promised support In a
campaign to candidates who did not
happen to meet their personal views.
But when the present bosses of the
Democratic party grabbed control they
cast aside all questions of consistency
and folding their garments of self
righteousness about them proceeded
to do all and sundry things which as
long as they were reaching for po-
litical power were denounced as the
very inventions OF the devil.

purposes, prostituting important off,

are guilty of these and other offenses
which were so wicked and abhorrent
when chargeable to others.
Palmer as the candidate of his fac
