Worse Crowd Than the Bandits"
A former governor of Kansas,
w. R. Stubs, and a former Mis-
souri, judge, W. H. Wallace, who
said they had learned by rails
ing cattle themselves that meat
packers by price fixing combinations
were crushing the livestock growers,
pleaded with a house judiciary sub
committee to aid in in%augurating
sweeping reforms in the packing in
dustry.
They appeared as counsel for west
ern growers and feeders.
Speaking on the Borland resolution,
before the subcommittee, which would
order a federal trade commission in.
quiry to determine whether the pack
ers are violating the antitrust laws,
they Endorsed the proposal strongly
and suggested making laws prohibit
ing the restraint of trade in foodstuffs
generally more stringent. Jail sen
fences instead of fines were urged.
Fines are jokes" Mr.. Stubs de
clared.
Mr.. Wallace, who prosecuted the
James train robbers, heatedly de-
nounced the alleged packing combina-
ton.
I'VE are after a worse crowd now

week than the James boys did in their

ing the Dark Ages it became customary
for the Roman and Greek Catholic
churches to "canonize," or legally set
apart as objects of reverence, certain
persons respecting whom, after the
lapse of several centuries, nothing espe-
cially evil was remembered, but only
things esteemed praisewOrthy.
A third reason why some dislike the
term saints is that they consider it
to be rather boastful. e hypocritical.
Having lost sight of the doctrine of
justification by faith in its proper ap-
plication. they have become accustom-
ed to think of all Christians as miser-
able sinners. Thus they overlook the
fact that there are some in whom 1.-THE
righteousness of the Law is fulfilled"
because they walk, not after the flesh,
but after the Spirit, and the merit of
Christ covers all their unwilling short
comingS.-Romans Sid.
Gods people. however, should re-
member that almost all of the EpiS-
ties of the New Testament are address
ed ito the saints; and that those who
cannot properly apply to themselves
this term, which is authorized by Apos-
tolic usage, cannot properly apply to
themselves the promises contained in
those Epistles. Let it be borne in mind
that the word saint" does not signify
actual perfection merely, as in u
Lords case, but also applies to those
who are reckoned holy through Him.
Two Notable Miracles.
The healing of Eneas, the paralytic.
was a very notable evidence of the
power of the Lord, very similar to the
healing at the Beautiful Gate of the
Temple. Here. as always. st. Peter
made sure that none should think that
the power exercised was his own. He
distinctly affirmed that Jesus the Mes
siah, whom their rulers had crucified.
had performed the cure and therefore
was not dead, but risen.
The fame of the miracle spread
abroad and resulted, we are told. in the
drawing of MAN. to the Lord. Thus
did the Lord establish the Church and
attract to it those who were in the
right heart attitude. using miracles
then, as He nov uses other means. AS
already pointed out, those miracles
ceased with the death of the Apostles
and those upon whom they laid hands.
The Twelve had no successors-St.
Paul taking the place of Judas. The
Heavenly Jerusalem had twelve foun-
dations-no more-and in these were
written the names of the Twelve ApOs-
tles-no others.-Revelation 21:14.

ARTILLERY CONTINUES ACTIVE
Prepare for Another Counter Attack
In the Douaumont-Vaux Region
Above Verdun.

In the preparation for further
counter attacks on the northeast
front of Verdun, the French artillery
swept the region of Douaumont and
Vaux with shells through the night.
The official statement issued by the
French war Office says that the Ger
man guns made only a feeble response
to the terrific fire.
There is a slight lull in the infantry
battle raging around Verdun, follow
ing the violent fighting of Monday by
which the French pushed their way
back to the northern outskirts of
CaiMette wood, between Douamont and
Vaux, and regained a footing in the
village of Vaux itself.
The Berlin war office in its official
statement made its first mention of
the recent drive northeast of Verdun
which penetrated the French lines in
Caillette wood and nearby. The state
ment does not concede the French
claim to %recapture of any part of the
territory lost, declaring their counter
attacks repeatedly with exceedingly
heavy forces were fruitless and cost
them heavily in casualties. In the
successful offensive in question, on
April 2, the Germans made 764 pris
oners and captured eight machine
guns.
The British claim to the recapture
of a mine crater near St. Eloi, south
of Ypres, Belgium, is conceded by
Berlin.
Northwest of Verdun the artillery
on both sides has been actively EN-
ployed along the Acknowledgement
front where the salient in the line is
gradually being Strengthened out by
the southwark push of the Germans.
Even from the adjoining Argonne re
gion, the German lines at Malancourt
have been subjected to a pounding
by the French long-range guns.
The big guns of the Germans have
now brought three of the forts north
west of Verdun under their fire. They
are Fort Marie, Fort Bourrus and
Fort Choisel. However intense the
Germans bombardment becomes, they
cannot launch infantry attacks against
Cl6S0 WORKS because OF the ffeuCu
defences in front of them.
The Germans are striving harder
than at any previous time for a victory
at Verdun. The speeding up of the
drive is said to be the result of or
ders direct from the kaiser.
In the battle for the village of Faux.
which is a formidable obstacle in the
crown princes drive against Verdun
east of the Meuse, the French were
successful in their violent counter at
tack, the first one on a large scale
thus far attempted.
In fighting of the most savage char.
acter, which lasted all of Sunday
night and throughout the day, the
counter attack gained steadily until
Monday night the French had recap.
tured the western part of the village
and besides thrown the Germans back
to the northern edge Of the Caillette
wood and to the pond north of Vaux
All Of these positions had been hur
riedly fortified by the Germans since
their capture Sunday and the day be
fore.
Thus, a vital part of the two-mile
gain made by the Germans was wrest
ed from them by the French in the
counter attack.
