Or. Hills Case.
From the Marshalltown Qa.) Times-Rs
publican

From the Marshalltown Ua) Times-Rs-
publican.
Dr. Hills, noted divine and former
Iowan whose friends and admirers are
legion I'M the middle west. came before his
congregation Of Plymouth church sun
day and told them that he was unworthy
to unloose the latchets of the shoes OF q
, don and self reproach he made confession
! that ne had forgotten the greatness Of his
high office In greedy scramble for
wealth and put his future with the church
In the hands of its membership.
Hills, Il appears had been speculatinR
seeking a fortune. Little by little he had
involved himself and when the obligations
accumulated and his inability to. meet
brought against him. He settled 1t some
how but failed TO face the questions that
arose through exposure: In an effort 90
save hrs face he explained that he was
paying obligations created by his nephew.
Then the nephew sued him for libel and
the truth came out. That Ia about the
way the story reads: The result was a
broken man bowed IN confession before
those who had trusted and followed him.
Let US not be over eager OF condemna-
ton In this case. The speculative ven
lures that wrecked the career OF the min
lister was very human mistake and min
listers are as human as other men In their
desires however much more they may re-
press them. Hills came from a little Iowa
town and from q quiet career into an en-
vironment OF vast wealth and speculative
activity. He learned to think I'm millions
Had he remained In Magnolia, Ia. he
would have continued to think IN hundreds
and thousands. His desires might have
been limited 10 a good house In a nice
neighborhood. q $1,000 car and an income
that would permit MIN to live safely and
happily there in his old age. HIS view
point chanEei from a modern home In a
small town io the ma sion on the avenue,
from four-cyllnder stock cars to Packard
linnuusneS from one hired girl TO corps
of servants. Atmosphere and snSironurent
and elevation affect men as they affect
vegetation. IL shows merely that Hills
was very human. Even his attempt TO
save himself at the expense OF another
waE q human weakness, moi to be con-
s.deFatiun. 81 ply nS q SoIhIuon weakness

Man is naturally inclined toward
s.nfulness. Some naturally more
so than others. TO offset our evil
propensities there is always being
held up before US the best morals
known to the society in which we
move. Within US are two contend
ing influences. one prompting US to
sin and degradation, the other TO
noble deeds. Our moral nature Is a
battle ground for these two con-

or become gentle, patient and char

of these different characteristics as
there are individuals OF the human
race Occasionally an individual
seems to stop short in a downward
course and to reverse his mode Of
living. When these sudden
changes take place in men and

When we behold the sudden
changes in men and women We are

working OF the moral forces within
them.

We fail to grasp the variety and the eeNtent of Alaska producttyeness; and the os- suraace Of its tremendous noreaee as the country shall develop.
 Here is what Alaska shows at it's exhibit in San Francisco: Gold pro ductiyn, as We know in terms Of fabulous wealth; copper ores that denote the richest fields yet discovered and from 8 region far more extensive than the combined copper workings within the states,
