Ing victory than any other president
had had since Monroe. he had the man.
date and the opportunity to be presi-
dent Of the whole Union. With all
his good qualities Of head and heart,
he was not broad enough to be more
than the servant Of a section, "of
those who placed me here" as he ex-
pressed 1t.
The new presidents appointment Of
Jefferson Davis to be secretary Of war
identified his administration at the out
set with the aggressive faction In the
south. Under its counsels Pierce not
only surrendered to the ambitions Of
the slave power for expansion over
the north and west, but also for Its
expansion into foreign lands.
Slavery was In Its last throes ey-
erywhere. GreM Britain had abolished
It 10 her West Indian islands, Mexico
had abolished II next door to our own
slave states. Even Spain was tend
Ing toward the freeing Of the slaves In
Cuba when the American ministers to
Great Britain. France and Spain met
In Belgium and issued the "Ostend
manifesto" That shameful document
proclaimed the threat that II the Span
ish government should refuse to sell
% Cuba We would take the island by
force, q.
At the same time congress at home
was repeating the Missouri compro-
mise and wiping out the dead line
against slavery, which had been drawn
. quarter Of q century before. This
threw open Kansas to q wild scramble
between settlers who wished the new
territory to be free and those who
wished It to be slave.
Then and there the Civil war began.
"Border ruf1ans," o. the north called
the settlers, who rushed In from Mis-
souri, and other slave states, and set
tler1 no less rough In their fighting
who poured In from the free states,
quickly turned that primeyal into
bleeding Kansas" Rival territorial
governments were set up BY the two
factions. and Pierce threw the weight
Of the federal power on the side Of
those who were desperately striving to
create another slave state.
The whole country was drawn into
the struggle, and the Republican party
sprang Into life. At the election In the
middle Of bis term, Pierce saw the

Fabens, Texas,

Dear Christian Worker
Again theI record Of another Meet
ing has been made. Closed long
meeting OF six weeks at Lorsburg,
New Mexico, with Al added. rs by
Baptism, and they were all Baptized
before last service. The wife Of the
leading Chinaman there came TO
Christ and was buried with Him In
Baptism. We asked her husband
to come, but he said, me take-a
no chance!" It appeared to us that
he was taking a greater chance by
not coming! One OF the leading
Mexican Catholic women> became
obedient TO the faith once delivered.
and she Is trying to organize class
Of her people In our Sunday school
and teach the awy Of life more per-
fectly to them In the language OF
her people. We put on the every
member-canvas the last day among
the new members and any others
who cared to plege and secured
$l352.00 for local work. Bro. AL
fred Brunk is on the field as Minis
ter and is growing In favor with the
people daily. 1t was truly great
meeting for that place. And the
people were so appreciative. The
Editor OF the Liberal was liberal
and mighty kind to us in his unpre-
cedented mention of our work, and
he Is member OF the Methodist
Church South! The American Le-
gion honored us by asking us to de-
liver an address on Armistice Day.
The High School insisted on us max
Ing visits to their morning assem-
bly, with musical program. The
Mayor entertained US on my Birth
day, November 18th Bro. McCaul-
ey, the veteran singing Evangelist,
who lives there. was wonderful
help In multitude Of ways! The
people counted Ii pleasure. and
apparently an honor. to entertain us
in their homes. and to be solicitous
OF our every need! Southern hos
pitality Running Over was sours! How
on earth can We ever repay them
and You! Many prayed and many
gave! The meeting was considered
the greatest all-round meeting ever
held In Lordsburg. II reached far
beyond our own circle, stirred reli-
gious people, and even the "City
Dads to pass ordinances against
gambling etc. Oh, can't tell you
all that happened! Eternity alone
will reveal 1t all! We give God the
glory. and thank Him for His Cos
pei, and for such privileges OF telling
1t!
Yours, sincerely, a

GERMAN RAILROAD
IN GOOD CONDITION

Munich, Dec. 7.-(Correspondence
of the Associated Press .-Traveling
conditions within Germany are more
nearly normal than in most other
parts Of Europe. Trains are frequent
and generally on time when not COM
PEELED t0~Wait for connections with
trains from other countries. There
are fewer trains de luxe than former
ly. Many lines do not operate first
class sleeping cars. But most impor-
tant trains carry sleepers with sec
ohd-class accommodations, that is,
two persons in each compartment Few
trains have dining cars, although
most sleeping car conductors provide
coffee and tea for passengers and
sandwiches. cakes and fruits can be
had from vendors at nearly all impor-
tant stations.
Cars and stations are clean and
fairly well heated. The trainmen are
courteous to foreigners and talk
French and English with apparent
relish. This is probably due to the
fact that foreigners are more liberal
IN their fees and German railway men
make such small salaries that they
are eager to augment them.
Travel to and from East Prussia is
more troublesome than in any other
part of the country. Most trains are
delayed at least two hours by Polish
officials at the Danzig corridor and
frequently the delay is much longer.
The Poles require Polish vises for all
passengers crossing the corridor and
the fee for an American is $40, re-
CARELESS of whether he desires to
stop in the strip under Polish control.
In the Rhincland the train service
is especially good and all hotels and
pensions are extending welcome to
foreigners from countries where the
exchange was better than in Germany,
especially to Americans. But this
practice has been abandoned by all
important hotels. Shopkeepers oc-
.casionally try to charge Americans
and Englishmen more than the mark
ed price on their goods, but the prac-
tice has been resented so strongly
that few important concerns continue
it.
The attitude of the German public
toward English-speaking travellers is
almost universally courteous. Occas-
ionally Germans will leave a COM
partment where English is spoken
but the great majority of Germans
seem to enjoy an opportunity to prac-
tice English and will frankly say 50.
