HORSES PROVE
BIG WAR NEED
This Was One Handicap In Getting
Civil War Troops
In Shape to
Go.

One troublesome task In connection
with equtpping the cavalry during the
civil war, according to the writer OF
an article published by the State
Historical society, was to secure a
sufficient supply Of big sound horses.
They were required TO be fifteen
hands and one inch high, and from
five to nine years old. The Fourth
regiment Of Iowa cavalry was re-
markedly fortunate In this repsect.
Colonel Porter personally supervised
the selection OF horses, which were
assigned according to color to the
various companies.
Many companies, OF course, were
mounted upon bays. The next high
est number were sorrels and the next
On browns. But Company A had
grays and Company z blacks. The
regimental band all rode On fine
large roans. There was continued
effort made during the early part OF
the service OF the regiment to main
tain this arrangement OF the colors.
Fresh horses were distributed, as far
as possible, but the difficulty OF OBJ
tanning horses steadily Increased,
and the maintenance OF the coIors
became impracticable."

of the sixth annual convention Of
the Investment Bankers Associ-
alton of America.
Mr.. Warfield. who also is Chair-
man of the Board of Directors Of
the Scaboard Air Line Railway
and President of the National as
ISOLATION Of Owners Of Railroad
Securities, said the plan was not
only fraught with danger to the
people, toward Government own
ership, but that it was q menace to
holders of all classes of securities.
because it proposed, he added, the
grentest autocracy in corporate
management yet suggested.
If enacted into law it would not
alone apply to railroad corpora
tions, he %contended, but sooner or
later the same principle would like
ly be extended to all corporations
engaged in interstate commerce.
The plan is not that the CARR
ers may have the right to %incorpor-
ate under 81 Federal act, giving up
their State charters said Mr.
Warfeld, but that the act will
arbitrarily compel the carris~s to
take out charters under the FEEDER
al act. "-Erchonge.
Railroad bosses can kick and
object all they please, but this
Liberty Enlightener" is in favor
of requiring them to take out fed
eral charters. There is entirely
too much duplication of effort in
our government for the country's
good, and State control and FEEDER.
al control of the railroads is a con
spicuous example of it.

THE CHUR RICH PAST
AND PRESENT

A valued friend of The Press
takes exception to that part of an
article entitled ''Protestant Refor-
nation" which appeared in The
Press two weeks ago, referring to
"human and corrupt priesthood. "
The paragraph in which the ex-
preston occurs refers clearly to
the time Of Luther four hundred
years ago. Perhaps the article
conveys the Inference that the
priesthood is now corrupt, but The
Press did not and does not intend
to convey any such meaning
Whatever may have been in the
mind of the author of the original
article, The Press does not Ell
dorse the sentiment that the Cath
Ollie church or its priests ore cor
rupt. We have the authority of
the Scriptures, however, for the
fact that human nature everywhere
is corrupt; but this has entirely
to do with human nature
in its dealings with their fellow
men. Differences of doctrine or
religious belief come entirely un
der another head.
There are errors and mistakes in
all the churches, so The Press has
no reason for singing out the Cath
Ollie church as being a greater sin
ner than the other churches.
But leaving this question, The
Press is glad to observe the 4OOth
anniversary Of Martin Luther's
Reformation. AS long as human
nature dominates the world, there
will be other reformations to fol-
low. What about a corrupt hu-
man nature dominating the Church
or all Churches? The Press is of
the opinion that they are to pass
away, and even now are passing
away.
But surely there will be some
thing to take its place? Is it not
the Kingdom of Heaven on earth?
when the Lord Jesus Christ shall
he its Lord and Governor: when
ALL the "Rcdeemed' of earth
shall be Prophets, Priests and
Kings?

You a get ready now to vote
on a Federal Prohibition Amend
ment, since another State New
Mexico-has been added to
the Dry column, while the
Empire State of New York
gave a decisive majority for Wo-
men Suffrage. Minnesota will un-
doubtedly be the next, making %
dry states. Then only four or FIVE
more need to be swung to the dry
column to make Prohibition a Ma
tion-wide law. The following from
the Sioux Falls Argus-L Leader
shows how the dailies are leading
the great cities into the dry column,
Cincinnati and Cleveland. o., both
giving the Pro. amendment q
majority:
"As the weeks and months pass
by the oOne-dry law IN South La
kota continues to score a big sue
cess. For the month Of October
in Sioux Falls there were only two
arrests for ENTHUSIASTICALLY
the smallest number of arrests of
this kind since the town was incor-
porated. States which are having
trouble with the enforcement of
prohibition would do we'll to get
away from the idea that the thing
to do with the evil is to temporize
with it. A state should do one of
two things-either enact and en-
force q bone.dry law, or 90 back to
the license system. The state is
tremendously pleased with the re-
suits Of real and absolute prohibi-
tion.so far, and there does not seem
to bethe least doubt that the bone
drypclicy will be permanently fol-
lowed"
