The prohibition constitutional

one of the hottest contested fights in
the history of the state.
Bob Burdette describes the auto
mobile as ‘:a large iron and rubber
contrivance for transforming gasoline
into speed, luxury, excitement and
obituaries. It consists of a handsome
leather upholstered carriage body
mounted on agizzard full of machine
ry, suffering from various ailmenos.
It is the speediest and most stylish

The fact that down in the horrible
St. Paul mine, in Illinois, there lies,
among bodies of men, likewise the
bodies of children who were unlaw
fully employed—employed in plain
violation of the child labor laws —
adds to the calamity of the situation.
For the owners of the mines there is
thus not only the loss of property,
but the loss of the name of good citi
zenship; for they must have known
that they were not privileged to em
ploy the tifteen-year-old boys whose
mothers are now losing their rational
powers out of grief and horror. It is
apparent that the campaign against
child labor must be waged more re
lentlessly and more continuously.—

When you walked into your local
meat market and laid down a dime
for a few thin slices of bacon, which
shrunk to nothingness in the family
frying pan. you suspected that some
other party must be making money
on hogs. And it transpires that you
made a good guess. It used to be
figured that the farmer who expected
to break even on feeding 50 cent corn
must get 5 cents a pound for his hogs
This 10 to 1 ration has been changing
to the very decided advantage of the
farmer. Some one with a taste for
figures has found that with alfalfa
for use as feed during the growing
period, pork can be produced at a
cost of but 3V2 cents per pound, even
when corn is high in price. With
hogs'bringing better than 87 per hun
dred on our home markets it doesn't
take much figuring to find that the
farmers of Nebraska are not likely to
be objects of charity right awav.—

District court convened here Tues

Hostetler presiding. Court Reporter
Ilermanson was absent, owing to a
serious operation .which confines him
in the Hospital, but his place was oc
cupied by Court Reporter Cook.
Judge Hostetleropened court prompt
ly at 9 o’clock in the morning and
proceeded with the cases before him
like the business cyclone that he is,
and had the attorneys jumping side
ways to keep-up with his whirlwind
procedure. Case after case was
brought up and hastily acted upon,
giving no time for delay, except
where needed witnesses or parties
interested could not be forthcoming
when cases were called. For the fi rst
year In the history of court procedure
here in the past number of years
there was no jury session and neces
sarily such few jury cases as were on
the docket had to be carried over to
the next court, but all other cases
not requiring jury were rapidly dis

through with the matters in hand
and adjourned the same evening.
“I shall cheerfully aid you in your
proposed temperance movement in
the army,” promise^ General Fred
erick D. Grant in command of the
Department of the Lakes, in a letter
addressed to the Rev. Wilbur Crafts
of Washington, superintendent of the
international reform bureau. An in
vitation recently was sent to General
Grant by Dr. Crafts inviting him to
address a meeting to be held on Dec.
12 next to inuagurate a movement
looking to the establishment of a
total abstinence association in the
United States army and navy. In his
communication just received General
Grant expressed regret at his in
ability to tie present, but declares,
according to Dr. Crafts, that he is
‘‘cordially in favor of the proposi
tion.” Dr. Crafts said that he pro
posed to establish an association simi
lar to the one which has flourished so
well in the British army for a score
of years, with British generals as its
officers.
The Craalia Bee points to a fault
of the stage which has no doubt pres
enter! itself to many theatre goers.
“The stage,” it says, “has become so
bold in its modern tendencies, that
the profanity, bordering on blas
phemy .is not to be marveled
at considering the tendencies of the
times. Profanity on the stage is a
reflection of profanity in public. . . .
In the present generation there is too
ooramonly heard on every street, in
the cars and public corridors, a con
stant stream of language much coars*
er and much more profane than exists
in any of the classic early English
literature, which, under the old order
was not admiteed to the fireside cir
cle. The indecencies of speech heard
in public places, in all cities through
out the country, particularly from
youthful lips, is one of the most
flagrant evils of the age.” The criti
cism is a timely one. There is prob
ably not a city in this state in which
the tendency objected to has not been
noticeable. Even officers of the law
have been careless in the matter.
What can be done to remedy it?
Yellow Evangelism
Hit by Preacher
Lincoln Minister Shoots the
Sensational Evangelist Full
of Hot Stuff
From tbe Evening News.
The methods of some of the modern
evangeligts were scathingly' referred
to by Rev. C. IT. Yatman in an ad
dress on “Present Day Problems for
the Preacher,” delivered before the
city ministerial association. Yatman
has been doing evangelistic work in
Lincoln for some weeks.
“In evangelism,” he said, “there
has come the spectacular, displacing
the spiritual. Crowds and cards
count far more than converts. The
worst form of lying is about the
number of conversions. Parades,
newspaper notoriety, sale of hymn
books, singing senseless songs and
making rude jokes, together with an
unmistakable greed for gold, that is
pure graft, have all brought the gos
pel into disrepute with thinking
people and the masses.
“Methods in revival meetings, that
savor of vaudeville, tricks that make
a self-respecting man blush for shame,
Scripture truth twisted until its
meaning is made to tit a fool are all
prevalant now, and it is the duty of
ministers called of God, to both deny
and denounce the whole lot.”
In opening Mr. Yatman, speaking
from Psalm xi, “if the foundations Ixs
destroyed what can the righteous do':’”
said that preachers, who are just like
other people, need the same tonic;
hence he “brought some sunlight
mixed with dynamite.” The problem
as he stated it, is:
“Alas!! The aim of the present
day church is more ethical and social
rather than devotional aud spiritual,
hence loss of power.
“She seeks to ‘reform’ men, rather
than ‘regenerate’ them.
“Emphasis is laid on ‘doing some
thing’ more than on ‘being something’
“Her vision is first ‘Outward’ and
not ‘Upward.’ The law of Pentecost
is broken.
“It is not ‘be ye holy’ but ‘be ye
happy.’
‘The emphasis of church life is to
hear a man preach, instead of wor
ship, praise and prayer, with truth
he needs in message.
“It’s ‘pay’ instead of ‘pray,’ gold
counts more than God.
“The penuriousness of the people
to their pastor, and their unfair criti
cism and expectation of him in get
ting crowds and money, weaken his
ministry and defeat his purpose,
i “The church is sociological rather
than theological. There can be no
genuine revivals apart from sound
doctrine. Neither strong Christian
character, in church or nation.
“Evolution by education, is the
watchword, above revolution by sal
vation—what is the use of saying to
the devil “be good.” You need to
tell him ‘begone.’
“Sanctity has given way to socia
bility. Many churches are successful
clubs, hardly that. God’s house is
not a soup kitchen or concert hall.
“The evangelist who can make
them laugh is wanted above one who
will make them weep for their sins
and truly repent.
“The ‘Fatherhood of God’ in re
demption, and ‘Brotherhood of Man’
in Christ, is lost in the whirl of uni
versal ism.
" ± ne unripe tninKinganu unproven
declarations of so-called scientists,
have been accepted as truth, when
riper scholarship will prove them ab
solutely false. This is the history of
the past two decades. Evolution is
not a proven theory. Both Darwin
and Huxley are discredited in the
higher universities of today. Con
structive criticism is good, destruo
tive criticism is devilish.
“The ‘divineness of Jesus’ supplants
his dietyship and he is ‘example and
teacher’ more than ‘Messiah and Sa
vior.’ Hs is no more the ‘only begot
ten son of God,’ but one of many like
the other children of Joseph and Mary
Luke, who was a doctor, was deceived
when he wrote his gospel, so they say.
“The Bible is symbolic, and not his
toric and unauthorative: it came by
men like other books, instead of by
the Holy Ghost, in inspiration.
“Hell is but a metaphor and its
fires have been almost extinguished,
when penalty for broken law, is an,
eternal truth and fact.
“Worldliness, like a flood, has swept
through the church and left it anemic
in some cities quite dead. Pagan
Christianity is worse than heathen
idolatry.
“National problems, like tapital
and labor, civic righteousness and
sins, must be solved by gospel prin
ciples and power, or they never will be.
“Secular education, without moral
standards, has brought upon us a
teeming mass of youth who run wild
after pleasure and stop not at sin, of
ten in its worst form. This Christian
nation has wickedly allowed the Bible
to be taken from the public schools.
Chicago began that work, Jand she
reaped the bombs.
“The saloon, with its accursed sow
ing of ‘wild oats’ will make us go on
for fifty years yet, reaping its deadly
harvest, should the last one be wiped
out this day. And the last one should
be wiped out from America within a
decade. It will not be much longer
than that, when this prophesy will
be history, if the church will do her
duty.”
These solutions for the problems
of the present day preacher were sug
gested:
“Remember the Triune God lives
and rules and reigns. His purposes
and plans in the ultimate, never fail!
Get from Him, His word, His spirit,
your convictions of His immense and
His power and then work with both,
bo the accomplishment of the task
allotted you.
“Go in great for expository preach
ing. It will get you a hearing, it will
bring results, and magnify your work
among the people.
“See that your preaching is ‘objec
tive and not ‘subjective,’ the one gets
converts, the other seldom or never
Joes.
“Know God intimately; be filled
with Him; live holy lives and put in
indefatigable toil daily. Do nob be
afraid to let the spirit lead you. He
may take you out of ruts, which will
be a glorious thing. Dr. Wayland
well said: ‘Propriety is the grave of
power.’
“Stick to the three essentials that
are apostolic and historic. 1. The
word of God. 2. The blood of Christ.
1. The Holy Ghost. All these will
lead you to give the people what they
need instead os what they want.
“Get all the wisdom you can from
every source, both in heaven and on
earth, and use good sense, for he that
winneth souls is wise. John Bunyan
who wrote the book next to the Bible,
‘Pilgrim’s Progress,’ was a Baptist,
but he never baptized his pilgrim,
for had'he done so, it would have
killed his work. It is a great thing
to know what to leave out and when
to quit.
“Be of large faith, and know by
experience, that prevailing -prayer
prevails.”

the devil approached him, and said:
“Who are you, anyway? You act as

do own,it,” replied the man. “My

250 Good Stories
The Youth’s Companion abounds in
stirring stories of adventure and hero
ism. One may describe an escape
from accidental peril, another a
strange encounter with wild creatures
—man or beast.
Many of these stories are true as
to facts, and only disguised as to
names and places. A score or more
of such stories will be published dur
ing 1910 in addition to nearly 200
others—250 good stories in all, and no
two alike. And this is not counting
the serial stories which it is believed
will be considered by old Companion
readers as the best The Companion
has ever published.
Every new subscriber will find it of
specialad vantage to send at once the
H.75 for the new 1910 Volume. Not
only does he get the beautiful “Vene

wny non t several townsnips go in
together and buy an engine to grade
their roads with? Webster township
purchased an extra heavy grader last
spring so an engine could be used as
power instead of horses, but carrier
has failed to see it attached to an
engine all summer. The best piece
of road work on route 1 last year was
done with an engine attached to a
light grader, but which was too light
for an engine, and when the front
grader wheel dropped into a hole
letting the point of the grader in so
deep that it broke the crook neck
castings on the grader, which proved
that it was too ligtli, so Webster
township ordered one extra heavy last
spring. Milo Gilbert was road over
seer at the time this work was done
and had hold of the levers of the
machine and Zwink Bros, were run
ning the engine. Ask them what
they think about it? You can do
three miles a day with an engine and
grader where you can only do one
mile a day with horses. In the morn
ing you have to wait on some one who
is one-half or an hour late and then
all the horses don’t pull even and the
next day you probably have several
new teams, and before you get them
used to pulling together there will be
another new team on the job that
won’t pull the hat off your head.
With an engine you need only three
men and with one pull of the lever
everything is working smoothly and
at the top of the hill there is no tired
horses either. In the hot summer
days where the sweat rolls off the
horses and you have to stop to give
them their breath, an engine would
work right •along, even better when
it is hottest. It is one of the hardest
jobs to get the farmers to work on
the roads, and road work generally
has to be put off until the farmer can
get his work caught up. With an
engine you don’t have to wait on any
one and in this way the same roads
can be gone over twice with an engine
and one day left, in which all the by
roads could be worked. Roads worked
in June and July are worth twice as

Tne highest box was purchased by
Frank Wheeler for $3 and belonged to
Mae Mcllravy. The proceeds of the
social was $46.95, which is certainly
the best box social ever held in the
country, and there is no telling how
high the sales would have reached if
there had been more boxes. The
crowd was so large you just had to
elbow your way along and every box
put u p went like a house afire, and
the boys from Loup City were not
slow bidders. It was estimated that
80 people were in attendance. Supt.
Hendrickson has a way of running the
boxes up that is hard to understand
and has quite a reputation for selling
lunches. Miss Lula Lee and pupils
deserve a lot of credit for the way in
which the program was carried out.
The proceeds will perhaps go toward
the purchase of an organ for the
school.
