A cure from local applications OF

because such treatment can only all

~ Music is Specially Popular and
the Sermons Of Evangelist Mitchell
Meet With Popular
Approval.
MEETINGS CLOSE SOON
rlnIty Methodist Church Filled Last
Night and a Delegation to oc-
cupy Reserved Seats
Tonight,

Il Last night opened the last week
NJ the evangelistic campaign at the
trinity M E. church. Practically
very seat in the auditorium was TAX
In when the song service began.
Evangelist Mitchell chose for his
heme the words of Job, ooh, That I
light Find Him" He said in part:
God can be found through the
venues of our physical senses. We
an see Him In the glory of the gold
IN sunset in the beauty of the blush
I l1g rose, in the infinite depths of the
saulted blue. We can hear Him in
II he song Of the baboling brook. in the
music of the woodland. in the roar of
& he cataract. in the thunder Of the
electric storm and in the music as
brought forth by man.
Mentality and Faith.
But God can be found in a more
'ealisticway through our mental and
spiritual senses, for these are more
sensitive than our physical senses.
Man is spiritual being and is ca
table of spiritual conceptions. We
can only get very meagre idea Of
sshat God is or who He is through the
physical and the mental parts of our
Being. The only true conception OF
God comes through the avenue of
faith and through this medium we
may find Him and know Him and en-
Joy His fellowship for ever"
Good Music All the Time.
One of the attractive features of the
meetings is the song service. The
people sing as if they enjoyed it i'm
nlensely. many of the new songs writ
ten by Professor Lillenas are very
popular and His Love Never Knows
Any Change" is taking a prominent
place. Mrs. Schouten delighted the
audience last night with solo en-
titled THE Man of Galilee" and Miss
Behymer gave two pianologues.
At the close of the service last
evening the young people spent a very
enjoyable social hour in the basement
Of the church. and light refreshments
were served.
There will be afternoon meetings at
200 O'Clock each day except Satur-
lay. Tonight there will be prayer
for men only in the primary
room of the church at 1880 o'clock and
the regular meeting begins at 500
o'clock. a delegation of women will
attend in body tonight and seats
will be reserved for them.

SHOOTING RESULT
OF GAME OF CRAPS
Colored Man, Out of Luck. Uses
Gun on Winner.

Down in the narrow confines of
Broad Alley southwest, last night a
crap game was in progress. Things
were running rather quietly for a
crap game. considering the fact that
everybody concerned had a gun or
a razor handy. together with the
usual supply of liquor.
Basil Ford. 46 years of age, was
having entirely too much luck with
the bones to suit Dick Robertson.
Convinced that he was "out of luck"
for the rest of the evening. Dick
reached for his gun and shot Ford
in the stomach. He then ran out
of the alley. leaving his victim on
the ground
Ford was taken to Freedmans
Hospital, where his condition is said
to be anything but favorable. Rob-
erson remained at liberty for a
while, but failed to outrun Bicycle
Policeman ]. T. Jackson of Number
4, who had him in less than an hour
after the shooting. Not knowing
whether Ford will die or not, the
police have not yet placed a charge
against Robertson. but 1t will be
either murder or assault with a
dangerous weapon.

The bill advanced in the Senate yes

adopting committee amendments, and
a final vote in sight today.
There will be few changes made IN
the bill as reported from the COM

or 'work-or-fight'' provision will be
so amended as not to leave striking
employees in the power of an arbitrary
or unjust employer.
Indications are that there win be but
few votes in support OF raising the

been no word spoken in favor of
lowering from IS. although several
Senators have expressed doubts that
many useful soldiers can be obtained
from the class above 10 years of age.
New York Police Depleted.
Senator Calder had read into the
record yesterday a letter from Mayor
Hylan stating that virtually every
able-bodied policeman OF the metro

The Republican has the financial
report of the Orofno Red Cross for
the period of it's existence and will
publish it next week. One item we
will take time to mention. Last
year two delegates were sent to the
Seattle conference. 1t has been re-
ported that 500 or such a sum OF
Red Cross funds was spent by the
Orof1no delegates on this trip. The
report shows that the Red Cross
paid Mrs. Foil and Mrs. Britain
only $40 each, a small part of their
actual expenses. Mrs. Britain says
she paid out over $40 out of her
own pocket, the expense for the
eight or nine days required then
running over $50 per delegate from
Clearwater county. The vouchers
show that only $40 each was paid
from Red Cross funds to Mrs. Bri-
tn and Mrs. Foil. Because of the
criticism our county came near not
being represented at the big confer
ence this year.

The story coming from Spokane

Mirror, telling Of e. Hofstede, who
spent four months In the Latah
county jail on conviction in federal
court of sedition, being arrested in
a raid on L. W. w. headquarters,
shosw that this man is not safe to
be at large. He will have to be
confined during the war. If he Is
an alien he should be deported. II
is too bad that he cannot be sent
direct to Germany and permitted to
live in the country he is trying to
help.
Hofstede has proven himself a
dangerous He is a menace to
the community in which he is per
mitted to live. He should be given
a heavy sentence at hard labor in
some penitentiary where he will be
unable to spread sedition or assist
la~w-breakers in their detestable
work. 1t is to be hoped that Spo'
kane has a a against him that
will result in him being given
long sentence at hard labor. 9th

into its own hands and ends his ex-
istence.

There Is every reason why the
Stacker should be held up to public
contempt and scorn. When those
in charge of the Liberty Loan re-
fuse to permit the publication of
loan subscribers, they are shielding
slackers. Let the people see who
the slackers are. They are making
this public in a lot of counties. 1t
should be given publicity in Clear

to buy bonds, but who had not pur-
chased up to a few days before the
Third drive closed, was solicited.

blank for him. He was to take a
bond. Did he take 1t? Well, we
asked the Clearwater county chair
man and he said he didn't know.

he has not bought his quota of

WHERE DO YOU STAND?

The Republican is a patriotic pa

You show us a pro-German and we
will bet our wad they are cussing
us. Show us a Stacker around Oro-
fno and we'll show you a fellow
who don't take the Republican.

men and women who are stacking;
the people who IRE in sympathy
with the I.W.W.; the people who
refuse to stand behind the boys
at the front, are not hanging

office. are they getting any aid
or sympathy or secret encourage
ment from the publisher. We are
for our country, first. last and al
ways, and when Uncle Sam needs
it he can have all we have, includ-

We are As years old, but when this
nation enlists e of that age, we
will volunteer. and Mrs. circuit will
do her part by taking care OF the
children and herself. And that's
the way to end this horrible war.
We can't do 1T by monkeying. We
can't do 1t by harboring devils like
Hofstede, and by American news
papers pussyfooting for fear of of
Tending the disloyal people in the
community. The Republican has
deliberately tried to offend the dis
loyal people of this community and
we will be on the job with a sharp
prod and our best punch till the

1t is our children's struggle for the
right to live free and decent lives.
1t is a war for the right of my

war. and your children's war for

Gem county, Idaho, boasts of 100
per cent. perfect score for the pur-
chase of Thrift Stamps among the
school children-every child having
one or more stamps. A record that
fills the people Of that county with
pride. How does Clearwater coun-
ty stack up with this record? Now
there is not a boy or q girl In the
county but can own one or more
of the Baby Bonds, and parents
ought to encourage the children to
invest their money in these securi-
ties. They pay compound interest,
are absolutely safe. and teach the
children to save. They also give
the boys and girls of the nation an
opportunity to do something in the
cause of liberty, and no American
child should be denied the pleasure
of having a part in this struggle of
righteousness against the Devil and
all his imps from hell.
