TO come to it each Suday have gone

Sixty miles from Golconda is the
town of Midas, named after the tabled
king whose touch turned everything
to gold. Midas is rich in opportunity
for the work of the Episcopal Church.
but poor. in that it has no such church.
These are the conditions revealed
| by Bishop George c. Hunting or the
Episcopal Missionary Diocese or Ne
vada. in his survey of the needs of his
diocese, just received at the headquar-
tiers of the Nationwide Campaign.
Bishop Hunting believes that the
church should follow the population
that il should find the place where II
| is most needed But he believes as
we'll that the business of the church
should be done with conservation and
efficiency. SO he did not let the old
church in Golconda crumtle and roi

the cost of a new church for Midas
Instead he obtained estimates for tax
I ing down the Golconda church in sec
/ tons.
Then in his survey he suggested
that the Episcopal Church give the
church at Golconda a ride on motor
truck, sixty miles overland to Midas
and set ii down there.

State Federation !,
Held Meeting.

The Catholic State Federation held
it's convention in New Orleans Sun
day and Monday with over $50 dele
gates present, representing different
sections and parishes of the. State.
There were number of notable ad-
dresses, the principal of which were
opposed and denounced from a reli-
giosus stand point. The attempt to
have the Federal Government regu-
late and supervise religious schools is
over stepping authority and centra-
lizing educational institutions to the
detriment and undoing of the latter
The next attempt may be to regulate
and restrain personal diet and habits,
so as to abolish whatever remains of
democracy in free country. Resolu-
tions adopted by the convention were
in keeping with the questions of mo-
ment and are very expressive and com
prehensive, to say nothing of their be-
ing timely and well founded.

A law publication tells us that "No

than Oklahoma, and it may in all fair
ness be taken as an illustration. In
that state there is court whose sole
function is the hearing of appeals in
criminal cases. The opinions rendered
by that court between Jan. "a, 1917
ami Sept. II, 1917, make up volume

one of the smallest populations in the
Union. Of these cases no less than 65
were for violations of the prohibition
law. Only a small proportion cases of
this class find their way to the ap-
pellate courts, particularly where the
court is as inhospitable toward techni-
cal objections as it is in Oklahoma"
