nee, so when the name of who is to get the job
goes from the President to the Senate the
President must send along with the name the
reasons, etc., why he named that person.
Under these circumstances Fielder is out of
it.
Senator HoBe Smith isn't going to stick to
FEEDER, first and last when he sees the strong
endorsements that the WILDE candidates from
other sections have-in such a. predicament as
that he will leave Fielder with the bag to hold.
We wouldn't be at all surprised to hear
something drop, and drop pretty hard.
Two American ships have gone down
from mines or torpedoes since the German
blockade went into effect, and the loss on the
two vessels is over 100000.
Some months ago our government began to
issue insurance to American ship owners, and
the two lost vessels were among those pro-
tected by this government Insurance.
Therefore, 100000 of the peoples money
will We paid out by the government to the
ship owners for the ships and cargoes sent to
the bottom of the sea-
600 to buid railroad in Alaska, opening up
that vast, rich territory for the Morgan
Guggenhelm interests, and it can insure ship
ping for the ship owners during such danger
Gus times as the present. but nothing can be
done to help the farmer.
It isn't sound government to lend money on
cotton stored in a warehouse where it is per-
fectly safe and the cotton will be good for the
money but it is sound government to insure
this same cotton for the ship owners, after it
is put on the Ships pay for it when it is sent
to the bottom Of the sea, and have nothing
left for what the government paid out
That is sound policy of the Wilson, Bryan
brand-~-the brand that the cotton growers will
be fed for four more years unless they assert
their independence and refuse to any longer
swallow the dose.
The champions of the Presidents Ship
Purchase oil are making a last effort to get
it through before this Congress expires, but
the filibuster that held it up for so long before
will more than likely hold it up for the re-
naming three and one half days of the ses-
sion.
The champions Of the measure haven't as
strong an argument in its favor now as they
had before Senator Hoke Smith voted to sus-
tain a question of parliamentary law in prefer
ence to saving the bill, for with the blockade
already declared by Germany and the threat
ened blockade that the Allies may declare
rs retaliatory measure, there will be no need
for ships for ocean going freight.

Advised Friend to Make First

Lodges to Hold Services at

Francis Asbury Brown, 21OO Main
street, who died Saturday afternoon,
was an intimate friends of William
Jennings Bryan, secretary of state,
and he frequently told stories of his
encounters with Mr.. Bryan
Mr.. Brown was native of Camden,
O., where he will be buried. He left
Camden in his youth and went to
Lincoln, Neb., where he established a
wholesale grocery house. When his
grocery firm had grown to some size,
he retained Bryan and Talbot, firm
of young lawyers, fresh from the bar
examinations.

is now. Mr.. Bryan and became close
friends as l believed him to be a
promising lawyer. l was Republican
and he was active in the Democratic
organization.
''One day he came to me and said
Mr.. Brown, l have been offered the
candidacy for congress. l don't know
whether to take it or not. 1t seems
to me to be rather forlorn hope

means because of the prominence
which would come to him as the result

CHRISTIAN and WAR
TOPIC OF SERMON

"Christianity must accomplish as
much in the next fifty years as it has
in the last nineteen centuries, or the
scoffers will have the right to call it
failure, and earnest men may ask Coo
to take the job Of giving Christ to the
world away from His people and turn
it over to the angels in heaven said
the Rev. W. O. Stovall, pastor of the
First Baptist church, in his sermon on
'Savorless Salt" yesterday.
The Rev. Mr.. Stovall denied that
Christianity is a failure. and blamed
the false usage of the name Christi
anity, saying that the Christianity OF
Europe is either Christianity of war
or it is not Christianity at all
at is said that present conditions
among the nations of Europe mean
the failure of the church. and 1t is
usually implied. if not always stated,
that this means the failure OF Christi
anity
"To some it seems to be the inevi'
table result of militarism with its phil
osCphy of civilization by force and
glorification of war. But still the ques-
ton is pertinent whether Christianity.
that claims to condemn war and inst.ll
principles of peace, after all these cen
turtles of opportunity ought not to
have been able to prevent this war.
Our humiliation as Christians. and
our confusion in regard to events,
come from failure to distinguish pc.
tween the Christianity of Christ and
the Apostles and the historically de-
veloped Christianity of Europe with
it's paganistic accretions and political
alliances. The thing that is being con.
demned today as weak and inefficient

scales, and weight everything I buy"
Mr.. Mckinley believes eggs should
be purchased by the pound. Under
the present system eggs are sold by
the dozen regardless of size, and he
argues that if they we're sold by
weight the food value received would
be equalized In the display he shows
a dozen eggs that weigh pound and
IL ounces, and in another pile sixteen
eggs of assorted sizes that weigh
exactly the same
In the exhibit are a number OF
liquid measure that have been con-
demned by the inspector as below
standard. One gallon measure had
been used for ten years, and was found
to be seven ounces short. A number
of spring scales are shown which
overweight from to s ounces to the
pound.
Loss BY Measure.
A half peck of sweet potatoes was
shown which weighed only 4 pounds
and ounce while the standard weight
should be 6 pounds and IA ounces.
Mr.. Mckinley also has on display
the new lead seals which will be put
in use about April Is. After each
seal it with the lead seal, which can
ers which were formerly used.
II want the housewives of Richmond
to look for these seals whenever they
make a purchase, and they can tell
then if they are getting full measure.
