peal to the people there. If he should
win in all of these states the sum to-
tai would be ~ votes, making his
grand total 1s6. Then granting to
Davis Nevada, Arizona, and New
Mexico, this would give him an addi-
tional 9 votes, swelling his grand
total to 1875.
LaFollette followers declare they
will carry Ohio and maybe Michigan.
LaFollette has the support and back
ing of the straightforward newspapers
in Ohio, and it is possible hat the
six such powerful newspapers work
ing for him he stands a chance of
carrying that state. In the West are
also many straightforward newspa-
pers; and also the Hearst newspapers
in Washington and California-as
well as in the East.
1t is possible that the Davis-LaFol-
lette strength may obtain a majority,
even with conservative figuring.
First returns from the Enterprise
nationwide Presidential poll verify in
a way all that is admitted by leaders
in all of the three big parties.
Newspapers in twelve states have
made returns, furnishing some very
interesting figures for speculation.
The surprising strength of LaFollette
indicates that our election may not
be settled in November-but will go
to the House, a probability foreseen
by political students when the Wis
consin Senator tossed his hat into the

PASTOR IN SERMON
GIVES ANSWER TO
GREAT QUESTION
Rev, Fackler Points Way
Toward Eternal Life
for All.

Answering the greatest question,
How can obtain eternal life?" the
Rev. L. c. z. Fackler, pastor Of St.
Matthew Evangelical Lutheran
Church Sunday showed the only way
by which eternal life can be realized.
You have thought of this ques-
ton and its answer - the Rev. Fack-
Ter said. The question is How
can obtain eternal Hfe?"
Now" he said, you are not ig-
norant Of that. The Lord gives us
credit for knowing at least some of
the word but at the same time He
does not want US to be ignorant that
there is q great deficit resting upon
Us.
You are not ignorant of Gods
word. You are given credit for
knowing some Of Gods word. You
have been instructed in Gods truth
and have had your instruction. sup
plimented and garnished by the
many sermons. Now do you ignor-
antly. like the heather, ask how can
I obtain eternal life?

and give it to the poor and then
take up his cross and follow Him.
This man was sad on account OF
this saying. The Lord pointed out
the fact that he lacked one thing,
and that which he lacked was not a
small thing, but of vital importance.
That which he lacked was the sur
rendering Of himself unto God. His
money waas dearer to him than the
commandments OF God. How can
you love God when you love other
things more than God? II you place
God second are you keeping the com
mandnent, love the Lord with all
your heart and with all your mind
and with all your being? If you do
not love the Lord above all things
can you rightly expect the greatest
OF all blessings?
Love God
How can I be made to love God
above all things and be separated
from the love OF the world? Do not
resist the word of truth, let the
Holy Spirit lead you. The spirit of
truth will work in you faith and
faith shall cover all our Imperfect
ton. We are not saved by the deed
OF man; our deficit or shortcomings
shall not be Ighted by any deed Of
man but My the grace Of God

On that date Cyrus obtained leave
of absence from his commander with
permission to visit Del Rio. and has
never been seen or heard of since.
On the night of September 3, his
mother. Mrs. A. NJ. Cyrus, who re-

three different times that she saw

the fact that young Cyrus came TO Del

When he left for Del Rio he turned
into the office something over $500
of government money which he had

as further evidence that the soldier
had no intentions of deserving when
he left the post, at least. But the
mystery Of his disappearance. with
present light. is impossible of solution
