Evidently Wilson'S second note had
too much punch in 1t for Bryan.
SHATTERED IDOL.

William Jennings Bryan proved a
greater %publicist than a statesman.
He returns to the lecture platform,
hoping to regain the large following
he had through his magnetism as all
orator. This nation has had many
great public speakers, but a small
percentage Of them have been great
statesmen. The gifts of oratory and
s%tatecraft are not as a rule both given
to a leader. Such men as Webster,
Clay and a few others were endowed
with them, but such instances are
rare.
The Commoner had a large non.
partisan following because Of his elo-
Quence upon the public platform. He
performed a real service there and
the eQuanimity with which he met
defeat after defeat Won additional adj
mirers.
His latest act, however, will cause
him to fall in the esteem of his fel-
low citizens. Bryan lost rather than
gained through his attitude at the
Baltimore convention, although the
ultimate result was the nomination of
Woodrow Wilson. Until the situation
had slipped his clutches, rumor was
persistent that The Peerless One
hoped the crown would decorate his
brow.
Bryan's temperament will not per.
NIT existence in another mans shad-
ON. Wilson dominated the present
situation and Eryan saw himself re-
duced to a %figurehead in vital mat
tiers touching his own department.
The retirement of the Nebraskan
from the cabinet can have nothing
but a political significance. 1t means
that the long expected schism in The
Democratic ranks has come at a time
when politics should be the farthest
from mems minds.
From nov on President Wilson will

COUNTRY CHURCHES

Columbus, o., Nov. 27.-One out Of
every nine country churches have
been abandoned in recent years Only
one-third are increasing in member
ship and two-thirds have either ceased
growing or are dying. Eighty-three
per cent have less than 100 members;
tWenty-one per cent have less than
twenty-five; twenty-seven per cent
have between twenty-five and fifty;
and thirty-four per cent have between
fifty and one hundred. Only six per
cent have individual preachers, while
twenty-six per cent share ministers
with another church; twenty-three
per cent have one-third the time Of a
minister; twenty-seven per cent have
one-fourth time; fourteen per cent
have one-ffth time; five per cent have
one-sixth time. A large proportion OF
preachers receive about the same pay
as a day laborer. Less than forty per
cent of the rural population are
church members.
These facts, shown in an extensive
rural survey of Ohio, whose results
were announced today, are applicable
to most states, according to officers

1t has been demonstrated by the
British government in the fifteen
months since August 4, 1914 that it is
possible to raise volunteer army Of
several million men where the organ
ization Is based upon standing army
of 100000 and national guard show
ing paper strength Of 100000 and an
enormous reserve supply of trained Of
ficers, the product of previous regular
service and wars.
1t has been proved in the same time
| that it takes at least a year to secure
such an army and over six months TO
make a soldier out of citizen volun-
teer The demonstration is also COM
plete as to the loss of time incurred IN
eQulpping such an army while war
is in progress, and what is even more
important the unfairness to the nation,
socially and financially, of a purely vol
unteer enlistment
Young men without wives, children
or other responsibilities have failed to
come forward in due proportion while
older men with families have respond
ed to the call in more than their pro-
portionate strength. This means that
the nation is burGened financially with
much larger daily expenditure for
separation allowances. pensions and
hospital upkeep than it would be had
men been taken in the natural order
of eligibility.
The obvious lesson to any nation
which depends upon voluntary service
for an army in time of need is the
prime necessity for keeping on hand
at all times complete stock taking of
the male population with notes as to
the social and physical state of each
individual and the address at which he
can be found.
Had the British government at the
beginning of the war registered the
population and divided it into classes
according to age, social state and oc-
cupation as has now been done,
months of time and millions of money
would have been saved Under the
new British registration law the male
population is divided into nearly fifty
classifications. Number one is the first
called upon voluntarily to join the
colors. and so on to the last man need
now in hand from this census men can
be secured. not only for the army. but

dress Of every man or woman with

Junk DEALER GLAD
THAT WAR IS ON
AMEs MAN GETS OVER 100000
FROM EASTERN MANuFAc.
TURERs FOR PILE.

Ames, Nov. 27.--Tom Robinson. the
junk dealer of Slater who for many
years has been making the state
net work Of trails while gathering his
tribute from every ash pile, Is about
to don real glad rags and instead OF
driving his old nag and dilapidated
rig. will occupy the rear seat of a
|seven-passenger touring car, smoke
perfectos. and give orders to his chat
feul, all because the fortunes OF war
have smiled on him.
For years almost beyond remem-
brance he has been going up and down
the state with his cry OF Rags! Old
Iron! Bottles!" He has pinched and
saved and continued his trips, sun or
rain, winter and summer. He watch
ed his scrap pile grow, throwing into
It metals of all kinds and descrip-
tons, from year to year. At times
he was tempted to sell but always
held on in hopes OF better prices.
The heap got SO large that he was
obliged to rent ground to extend It.
And still ne labored and waited for
the right price to come, adding to 1t
day by day and from year to year I'M
TIL It spread over more than three
acres OF ground and was from fifteen
to twenty feet high.
Then one day his face took on a
hopeful look and smile gradually
appeared as the market for old metal
began to climb. War had been de-
clared every quotation was higher,
and still he added to the heap. Last
week he decided to unload, and unload
he did, at prices that had never been
reached in junk history.
For that three acres Of Junk pile
he received over 100000 from east
ern manufacturers.
