The Warsaw Gate City
Warsaw. ILL, Sept. IL, 1915.

]. Baltzer of st. Louis, was impress
sive, his thoughts convincing, and his
way Of speaking original and pleasant,
Rev, K. Brunn, of Suffer, gave an in
teresting historical sketch OF the cor
gregations, referring to the first trus-
tees who signed the constitution in
1865. G. Nagel, L. Becker, J. Dross.
G. Bellersheim and Rev. G. White. He
further referred to the noble work Of
the Ladies Aid during a generation,
and to the help of the Y. P. s. for the
upbuilding OF the church.
In the afternoons, being devoted to
the seventy-fifth anniversary of the
Evangelical church of North America,
Rev. Ernst Of Keokuk. delivered an
English address, touching upon the
work Of the various branches OF the
church. In his second address. Presl-
dent Baltzer gave graphic descrip-
ton of the origin OF the Evangelical
church in this country. which was
started In 1910 by six ministers in
humble parsonage at Gravais Settle
ment, Mo-, and since then has spread
from oceen to ocean.
The Evangelical church has no spe-
cial doctrines whatever, but, like st.
Paul, breaches Christ crucified. This
is in perfect agreement with Martin
Luther, the founder of the Evangeli-
cal church:
"That Word above all earthly pow
ers,
No thanks to them, abideth!"
At this solemn moment and in re-
Spouse to this declaration of biblical
principles. the simple gospel Of Christ.
the audience arose and sang the grand
old hymn of reformation, which IN
the sixteenth century, stirred up all
christendom:
A mighty fortress Is our God
A bulwark never failing,
Our Helper, He amid the flood
OF mortal Ills prevailing!
The afternoon meeting was closed
by the leader OF the services, Raw. 3.
Matzke, with benediction. At the mis-
sion feast, 7:15 p. M, the Revs. Hagen,
Dickmann, Brunn and President Bait
err gave sketches Of the worldwide
missions at home and abroad. The
services were beautified by the well
rendered hymns of the church choir
and the male quartette, under the lead
| ership Of Mrs. e. Berlin. After rev

Keeping the Issue Clcar

IN the multitude of comment on the Presi-
1 dents last note to Germany one may wan
der far afield, for that comment is almost as
various the commentators themselves, and
bring up nowhere. Reading the note itself
however, there is not much real difficulty in
determining just what II means.
That meaning is embodied in the conclud-
ing paragraph, which is as follows
The government of the United States
deems 1t reasonable TO expect that the i'm
perial German government will adopt the
measures necessary to put these principles
into practice in respect of the safeguarding
OF American lives and American ships and
asks for assure noes that this will he done
There is the gist Of the whole story, re-
peated practically from the note delivered to
Berlin more than three weeks ago If Ger
many would maintain friendly relations with
this people. she must abandon those features
OF her submarine warfare chat subject neu-
trail ships and neutral lives to new and i'm
measurable risks. Other matters at issue
perhaps may be the subject Of future dipo-
matte exchanges; on this one point evasion
and delay will not be endured

Tax Reform In Illinois

ILLINOIS Is about to fall in line with Vir-
ginia in reforming her taxation system.
The Legislature Of that State has just passed
q resolution submitting to the people an
amendment to the Constitution designed to
improve taxation. This amendment will do
away with the general property tax, that old,
outworn and unjust method Of raising money
for governmental needs Under this amend
ment, If adopted it will be possible to tax
personal property at different rate from
real estate.
In Illinois. as in all other States where the
general property tax obtains, real estate has
borne the burden Of government while securi-
ties have largely gone untaxed. Illinois
wearied of the niquites of the system. and
appointed Tax Commission. headed by John
P. Wilson, of Chicago, and Professor Edmund
J. James, of the University OF Illinois. to
prepare taxation amendment
The measure will be submitted to the popu-
lar vote a the election Of November, 1915,
and it Is probable that the State will vote in
the Affirmative.
