rncca should bo abolished, becausu the
American people arc too far advanced
longer to bo restricted by church rules.
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
