The bishops any this is a matter to be left to tho peoplo to judge for them selves. This recommendation on the pnrtof tho bishops is certainly a modern viow. If you think it wrong to play cards or dance, don't do it; if you think there is no harm, enjoy thoso pleasures. These paasngca-at-arms botweon Itoosevolt andTaftaro certainly making campaign thunder for tho democrats. As a family rowlfurnishes food for tho goasipersMSO does this factional fight In tho republican party furnish meat for the democratic press and spell binders. It'a time to'call a halt. About one-half thejvotors of Lincoln county voted at the late primuries, the othor half were not'tsufflclcntly inter ested to tako time to go to tho polls. So long as this indifference exists, it cannot bo said that primary elections arc a success, or that tho candidato who receives tho highest ' vote is really tho choice of tho peoplo. Perhaps through timo thejvoter can bo educated an thnt he will takeltho same intorest in a nominating primary that ho does in tho election. Tho not gain In, tho membership of tho Methodist church last year was 55,000, or two por cent. This umall gain has led tho church dignitaries to got on their thinking caps. ,That ihoro is something wrong somewhere is evident Perhaps an investigation will prove that men of modem viows will not affiliate with a church organization that maintains tho samo rules that existed fifty yoars ago. Church organizations, like business men must adjust thom- selveH to changed condiUona-anu tneso ruloa can be changed without tho church losing any of tho influences for good. - The board of bishops, in their annual report to the general conference of tho Methodist church in session at Minnea polis recommend that tho rule prohibi ting dancing, card playing, gambling and going to theatr. circuses and horse Commissioners' Proceedings.
