“Church Cane" Added to Collection
of Clarinda Presbyterian Pastor
9/
Minister, 82. With Hobby for Collecting Walking Sticks,
Comes Into Possession of One Handed Down
to Oldest Living Divine in Iowa.
Clarinda. la., Sept. 29.—Every man
has thrust upon him seoonor later
a collection of bedroom slippers,
neckties and traveling kits, but It
takes a United Preebyterlan minister
to top the market in canes.
Dr. IV. ('. Williamson, pastor of
the church here, began his collection
while a student in Jefferson college,
Pennsylvania, when each member of
the class of 1SC5 carried a lightweight
ebony cane. Although 92, the veteran
minister has no need of a supporting
rod, ami if he carries a cane at all,
he still chooses the cane of college
days.
The canes have been given him
from year to year, by friends. The
collection has asstmied historical
value by the addttlun of two canes
coming from the late Rev. J. D. Ted
ford of Mount Ayr, and brought to
Dr. Williamson h.v the son, Howard
Tedford, as the two ministers had
been fast friends.. One, a massive
ebony rane. with heavy ivory handle,
had been given Rev. Tedford by Coi.
W. P. Hepburn, congressman from
the Eighth district of Iowa, and ae
qnired by him through leval friends
while in Washington, D. C.; the
other, known as the "Church cane,"
has for many years, in rapid suc
cession, been held by the oldest liv
ing minister in the Iowa United
Presbyterian synod. It will he taken
by Dr. Williamson to Newton, la.,
October 7, at the convening of synod,
and presented to the rightful owner,
possibly Dr. Williamson himself.
This cane, presumably of olive
(wood, was first owner and for many
years carried by Dr. C. T. Mr
Caugh.m, minister, Wtnterset. Ia. At
, his death, his daughter gave It to Dr.
Henry Wallace, retired minister,
editor of Wallace's Farmer, and
father of the present secretary of
agriculture. Dr. Wallace evolved the
Idea of making it the church cane,
and shortly before his death pre
sented it to synod for that purpose.
The entire surface Pf the cane is
i overed with elaborate carving, high
ly polished. A single two-inch leaf is
oft repeated, alternating with hor
: izontal lines, to within seven or eight
1 inches of the crown. An eagle, readv
for flight, holds in its beak a
serpent, and above the full rays of
the sun, evidently symbolic of the
strength of government and the
church to overpower sin. The upper
space is reserved for the four one ;
im h silver bands, engraved with the
name of the holder.
The top Viand carries the name of
"C. T. McCaughan, 1910, 96th," and
beneath it "Henry Wallace^' The
following Viands, in order, show 'Rev.
John Lackey, October 18, 182o-8ep
tember 10, 1911;" Samuel Findley
Thompson, May 17, 1828-May 1.3,
1012;" Samuel Ewing McKee, Sep
tember 13. 1820-June 26, 1913."
The Inscription for the late J. R.
Tedford had not been placed, but
will be added by synod at the time of
I passing the cane on. Samuel Find*
ley Thompson is the father of the
present president of Tnrkio college,
l>r. J. W. Thompson.

Coolidge Record
on Oil Scandal
Mississippi Senator Says Pres
ident Cannot Escape
Odium of Teapot
Dome.
Cleveland, o.. Sept. 29.—Senator
Fat Harrison of Mississippi, opening
the democratic speaking campaign
here today at the luncheon of the
women's democratic organization,
critii izeil the record of President
Coolidge.
"They say Coolidge should not he
held responsible for the corruption
that infested the Harding adminis
tration, " he said. "Why, the wild
orgies of the veterans' bureau were
exposed through congressional com
mittees, aired and acted upon by con
gressional mandates. The Teapot
Dome scandal corroded even the raf
ters and corridors o£ the senate cham
ber, r.0 nauseating was it In Its foul
odors. Calvin Coolidge could not es
cape It, because he was sitting above
us and over us in the same chamber
with us. The country has not forgot
ten, too, that on the first day Pres
ident Harding went in as ch ef exec
utive he said: 'The sort of govern
ment T ’have In mind ought to take
advantage of the capacity and expe
rience of a man like Governor Cool
idge by bringing him Into the cabinet
counsels.
"If Calvin Coolidge did not obtain
some inside information touching the
corruption* of the Teapot Dome from
these cabinet members, then it was
certainly his duty, in the interest of
the country and in good faith of his
high position to his party and admin
istration to appraise the president
and the cabinet of what he had
heard ns presiding- officer of the sen
ate."
On the subject of reparations Harri
son said, "We are told this adminis
tration deserves grent credit for the
part it has played in concluding the
reparations report.
"I charge that the republican party
has withheld from hte American peo
ple and the world reparations settle
rnent for more than three yearsi* I
charge that if this administration
had possessed any courage, states
manship or vision, it could have ac
complished three years ago what it
has accomplished now." <
