RESOLUTIONS.

Whereas, in His wisdom our Heavenly Father has called from her labors in this world, to that Celestial home that Jesus told his deciples he was going to pre- pare for all the saints of God, our beloved sister, Mrs. Eliza Spencer, mother, of our most worthy and efficient Superin- tendent. Therefore, as an express sion of our sorrow and sympathy for him and the others of her family we submit to this Sunday School the following resolution :
 Resolved, First-That in the death of Sister Spencer the Church has lost one of the "Mothers in Israel, who was ev- CT watchful and prayerful for its best interest and uplift, whose long life and Christian virtues, each and every member of this Church and Sunday School would do we'll to follow.
 Resolved, Second-That the entire community has lost one of its truest and noblest women. Her long, we'll spent life will ev- CT remind us that 1t is better to serve God and keep his com mandments than to give heed to vanities and frivolitles of this world.
 Resolved, Third-To her chil- dren and grand children we com mend them to the tender care and protection of our Heavenly Father. We feel safe in saying that if they will follow Him as Mother and Grand mother did they need have no fears when the death angel summons them to the presence of Him who makes no mistakes.
 Resolved, Fourth-That a copy of these resolutions be spread upon the records of the Sunday School, copy be given to the family and to each of the city papers for publication.
 Respectfully submitted,
 Mrs. J. c. Knox,
 Mrs. k. L. Hardy, Com.

Unless the inflammation can be re. duced and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever. Many cases of deafness is caused by catarrh, which is an inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces. Halls Catarrh Cure acts thru the blood on the mucous surfaces of the system.

There was once time, in the history Of this country, when man was a Democrat because his father and grandfather had voted that ticket before him; but that period has passed away and men now vote the Demo cratic ticket because it repre- sents the progressive spirit of this age. Because the Demo cratic party is the exponent of all that is best for America and Americans. Because, under the benign influences of Democracy, this land IS living under a safe and sane policy, while the whole world, outside. is in the throes of terrible and bloody wars, whose people are starving, and the fathers and sons are spilling their blood on many fields of ruthless butchery. Then, is 1t any wonder that the people should be Democratic in spirit. whether so in name or not? The Progressive party, which was second to the Democratic party in the 1912 election, and which was attempted to be sold out by some of it's leaders to the old stand. pat Republican concern, last summer, finding that their measures were enacted into laws by the Democrats, within the past three wears, are now, any of them, advocating President Wilson. It goes to prove that these men and women are more concerned about principles than names. They are satisfied with the constructive policy of the Democratic administration, and are glad to give it their support, this year The same may, also, be said Of many voters, who
 were with the G. o. P. the last national election.

Both actions and words speak

Both actions and words speak wherever Woodrow Wilson goes The public demonstra- tions made in his behalf have never before been 'equaled in this country. He is the embodiment of true Americanism and the common people, who love their country, are with him almost to a man. The big, robbing, graft ing corporations are opposing this great exponent of the peo- ple's rights, but 1t will avail them naught, for all true Ameri, cans are with Wilson.

DEAR MR. GOTHAM:


 1 have observed that the Mon tlcellonian gives a good deal of space to articles written by Christian Science correspond entS. Since no one has answer ed any of these articles 1t may lead or mis-lead people who do not study the Bible into think ing, that, because this doctrine is c" He'd by it's adherents Chris tian Science, it is Christian doc urine. It is really not Christian but the antithesis of 1t. It teaches that Jesus did not die. One third of the four Gospels are devoted te accounts of the death of Christ. While there is no space given in the Bible to accounts of the death of the deciples except for a few words concerning the death of James. The death of Paul is not mention ed in the Bible. The death of any mere man could have no theological significance to Chris. tians of any age. But the death of Christ describes the sacrifice of the Lamb of God that taketh away the sin of the world. "Isaih described the death of Christ Chapter o3) seven huu- dred years before He, Whom Isaih, called Wonderful, was born in Bethlehem. He was wonder ful, in that everybody else had natural mother and a Super nat ural Father. God was his Fath- CT. He was the only man who ever lived who never sinned. Christian Science does not teach us to judge ourselves sinners and get under the blood and be say. ed. It teaches us to try to save ourselves. We are not saved by works but by grace. The cost of our salvation Is entirely with the Lord Jesus: the cost of our dici. pleship is with ourselv es.
 Science teaches that Jesus Christ is Principle. Christianity teaches that he is living per- son. Who made this world | (John H. and then became man and lived to keep the laws of God as man and to die for his fellow-men. God is a Holy God and demands perfection. Jesus Christ is the only man who al ways pleased God. God spoke from Heaven concerning Him these words "Thou art my below ed Son, in whom 1 am we'll pleas ed. /" What does God say con cerning us, who belong to the race of fallen beings? All have sinned and come short of the glory of God" "God commands men everywhere to repent y We cannot face a Holy God and say that We have a right to inherit this earth after it had been purified by fire. Not one of us have kept His law. We have broken His law Who keeps the Sabbath perfectly? Who loves God with the whole heart and soul and mind and his neigh Dor as himself? Not one. But God has provided salvation for us. "The gift of God is eternal life. ""If thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in thine heart that God hath raised Him from the dead thou shalt be saved.n
 Science does not believe in Heaven or Hell. The Christian believes that Jesus is in Heaven now at the right hand of God the Father. But the Christian expects to see new Heaven and a new Earth with man restored as before the fall of Adam. The Christian must believe there is a

ffary Confirmed

Late yesterday evening the Herald
received the following telegram from
Washington thru the United Press:
"fhe Senate has confirmed the ap-
pointment of o. Il. Frary as Post
master at Durango"
While we desire to state that there
are a number Of worthy and wen
qualified persons in Durango, who be-
lieve in Democratic principles, we are
frank to state that no more worthy
and qualified person could be found
IN this section for the important po-
sition of Postmaster than Oren +.
Frary and we feel quite certain that
we voice the sentiments of the people
generally regardless Of party affilia-
tons.
While Mr.. Frary has been one Of
the ablest leaders in the Democratic
party he has never allowed his polit-
ical beliefs to prejudice him against
those who happened to disagree with
him along political lines. 1t is for
this reason, along with capability,
that the people of all parties are
pleased to know that he has been ap-
pointed to look after this most inn
portant government business at Du-
range.
