There was a great time at the Uni.
versity of Minnesota Saturday. The
department Of medicine had not an
nonnced an epoch making discovery
which would bring health and relief
from pain: the department Of law had
not promulgated doctrines which would
make law always equity: the depart
ment of physics had not discovered the
real nature of electricity; the depart
ment Of history had not solved the
mystery of the Man in the Iron Mask;
the department. of sociology had not
found the solution of the social prob
lem, nor had the department of philo'
sophy solved the riddle Of the universe.
None of these possibly more or less in
teresting things happened. But, by
gum, several cstimable young men be-
longing to our university simply push
ell several other estimable young men
from Chicago off the earth. Some game,
too. :.

The st. Cloud Times thinks Frank
Days views on the liquor question en-
titles him with more propriety to A
seat in the prohibition convention
rathcc than in the democratic. Cannot
a man be democrat without neces-
sarily having LIQUOR brand stuck on
him? How about the hundreds of
thousands of southern democrats who
have made most of the states Of the
south prohibition? Are they to be
barred from the democratic national
convention? The fact is that demo-
cracy stands for freedom Of opinion
among its adherents, and there should
De no prescription simply because Of
differing view on the liquor question.
1t is not undemocratic to believe in
the stringent regulation of saloons, or
even prohibition, nor is it democratic
to let those engaged in any particular
industry run the government. Of
course, Brother Macdonald was indulr-
ing in little joke.

No American minister has made a
greater success in every way than
Brand Whitlock, representing this gov
eminent in Belgium. Whltlock is man
OF education, of refinement and tact,
and above all, a man Of ideals. He was
a friend Of Altgeld. he is a friend OF
BRYAN. He is democratic democrat.
These things have not prevented hln,
making marvellous success In a time
of intense trial. He had no previous
experience. He was not 'prepareh'
as a diplomat. He had common sense,
a kind heart, and he believed in folks.
That explains it.

INCREASE LEV|ES FOR EDUCATION
 AND MISSIONS
Methodists of Pine Bluff District Assessed e5,559
 for Church Year.

An increase of $735 in the assess
 ments for the new church year against pastoral charges in the Pine Bluff district of the Methodist church,
 was announced yesterday afternoon,
 following the meeting of the district
 stewards, at the First Methodist church.
 The aggregate assessment for tho
 district is S5.559 which is levied against 21 charges in the district. Thc
 assessments are divided as follows: Home and foreign missions, 2,S00;
 increase, $45O.
 Church extension, 5000; no change.
 Education. S1.o65; increase, SS5. 0rphanagc, S355: no change. Bishops salary. $2S9; no change. American Bible society. $100; no
 change.
 Presiding elders salary. one-tcnth
 of the salary paid by each charge to it's pastor; no change. Rev. J. A Sage, tho presiding elder
 for the district presided over tha
 session. He explained after the
 meeting that tho increase in the as sessment for missions was a result
 of the action some time ago of the mission board at Nashville Tsnn, which increased the conference as- sessments, just as tho increase in the assessment for education resulted from the increase ordered by the con ference board, which decided that the conference should pay $1,300 instead of $1,00G to Galloway college. The conference already pays $500 to Hendrix and Hcnderson-Brown col leges.
 After the meeting yesterday, tho stewards enjoyed luncheon at tho Hotel Pines.

THANKSGIVING FOR
 PROHIBITION URGED
Ministers of Arkansas Asked by Anti- Saloon League to Observe First
 Sunday in January.

Little Rock, Dec. 15.-Col. George Thornburgh, president, and T. c. White, superintendent, Of the Anti Saloon league, nave issued the follow ing call to the churches of Arkansas:
 "At the last meeting of the head quarters committee of the Anti Saloon league of Arkansas it was voted to request all the churches in the state to observe the first Sun day in January, 1916, as an occasion for thanksgiving for statewide prohi- bition.
 "It was thought unwise to prepare program as each church will have different views, of the manner in which the occasion should be cele- brated. Every pastor is requested to observe the day in his own way. The coming of prohibition throughout the state should be referred to in some way in the sermons of the day. and prayer should be offered for a bless ing upon the law and for the faith fitness and success of the officers who are to execute it.
 Sunday school superintendents may with propriety and profit call at tention to the day in their Sunday schools. It will be a great day in the history of Arkansas. and should in- spire us to grateful praise to the Giver of all good"

REAPING BENEFIT
From the Experience of Pine Bluff
 People.

We are fortunate indeed to be able to profit by the experience of our neighlors. The public utterances of Pine Bluff residents on the follow ing subject will interest and benefit many of our readers. Read this statement. No better proor can DC had.
 Mrs. James Wilcox, 14O6 F. Sixth St., Pine Bluff, says: "I suffered from kidney trouble the greater part of my life. I always felt worn-out and tired. My kidneys acted too freely and my limbs were swollen. l suffered from rheumatic pains and had dizzy spells and blurring of my sight. Sometimes 1t was hard for me to get a good nights rest. I used a great deal of me dicine and finally got Doan's Kidney Pills. I have taken them off and on and can truthfully say that they have always relieved the aches and pains. Others of my family have also been helped by Doan's Kidney Pills"
 Price soc at all dealers. Don't simply ask for a kidney remedy--get Doan's Kidney Pills-the same that Mrs. Wilcox had. Foster-Milburn Co.,, Props, Buffalo, N. Y.
