Representative Kennedy, while the post
rffioe appropriation bill was before the com
Cnlttee of the whole too'ay, precipitated a
warm disoussinn on the question as to
whether the railroads had been (riven a
hearing on the reductions made in their
compensation for carrying the malls. Ha
had read In the house the resolutions
adopted by the Omaha Commercial club
protesting airalnst a radical reduction In
the compensntlon allowed the railroads On
the ground that the result would be to Im
pair the service: also on telegrams from
the Omaha banks to the same effect. Mr.
Flnley of South Carolina took exception
to the statement contained In these com
munications that the railroad companies
Jiad no opportunity to be heard, and asked
Mr. Kennedy if he was not aware of the
fact that such a statement was untrue.
. 3r. Kennedy' replied that the chairman cf
the committee, Mr. Overstreet, had lr
k formed him that two days, January SI and
I February 1. had been offered to the rail
lays to present their side, but that they
Aad only two days notice and they claimed
Ithejr could not get their evidence to Wash
ington In that time.
' Before the discussion ended Mr. Hedge of
Iowa and Mr. Flnley. both members of tho
postofflce and post roads committee, got
Into an altercation as to what took place
In the commlttae on the subject, and finally
they were both called to order by the chair
because It was Improper for members to
disclose committee proceedings.
Mr. Kennedy stated to the house that he
vmt In favor cf any reasonable and defi
hlte reduction In the compensation allowed
the railways for carrying the malls and
wb opposed to amy unreasonable of indef
inite reduction. He said he favored per
centage reductions provided for In the bill;
SUno the reduction relating to postal cars. I
Ixit was opposed to the provision requiring
the railroad companies to carry free empty
tnall bags, and to the change In method of
tfjomputlnc the welrhts until some member
(of the committee or of the house could
jXtve aorne definite Information as to the
iftffect of such provisions. He ssld he was
uwllllng to enter the domain of specula
tion tn dealing with the postal service snd
iliudated that the paramount question before
Wbw house and before the country was not
ljrfutt waa beet for the railroads but what
fsjraa beet for the public and that an Im
paired railway mall service would be dear
Sat any price.

MISSION TALKS DRAW

these non-Chrlstlan people. Our present
requirements would therefore be two men
and two women missionaries for each 100,(KH
or 4.IK0 missionaries. We have now but TOO
missionaries In the field and the expendi
ture for mission work is $1.13.(tt), where
t Aon 0D0 la needed. This would mean an
average of PJ for mission work for every
member here at home. Now the question
comes could we not spare 2,000 men and
2,000 women; this would be but one from
each church mission, and to or 14 each for
our members. If so we could evangelize
the world."
"Every church, every synod, every pres
bytery and every Individual has a definite
responsibility In this work. Let us go out
from this convention on a campaign of
education to advance this mighty work.
It is easy to tangle the work with petty
regulations, that a particular dollar should
go to some particular place. There are
900 missionaries out now, let us send out
the additional 3,100 and get what we can
and give It to them; let them have free
rein to do the best they can. I believe that
God has given this generation the priceless
privilege to deliver the gospel to every
creature, not that our forefathers were less
faithful or zealous."
Address of Dr. Corbett.
"Visions From the Foreign Field" was
the subject of three extremely Interesting
addresses Wednesday forenoon. The first
speaker was the veteran missionary. Rev.
Hunter Corbett, D.D. of China.
"Jesus said to His disciples, 'The field is
white and ready for the harvest.' So It U
today In the far away lands of China,
Corea and India. Christ would have us
see these landa from the viewpoint ' of
heaver.. How are these people to be won 4
for Christ T" said Dr. Corbett, "except as
the people cf God are faithful. The safety
of our country and the peace of our homes
depend upon the Christlanizatlon of the
peqple of China and Japan. We must lift
up our eyes and look beyond. The present
population of Japan Is t,880,000; that la
more than the population of the United
States fifty years ago. In 159 the first
mission was established In Japan and to
day 60,000 of those people have been con
verted to Christ ,
latere la Japaa.
"Ninety-three per cent of Japan's chil
dren are In the schools of Japan. Its army
Is equal In organization and drill to any of
the civilised western nations. The leading
officials of Japan are In sympathy with
Christian methods. The emperor and em
press recently gave 26,009 for the Young
Men's Christian association there. Since
the Japanese-Russian war not less than
LOCO soldiers of the Japanese army have
openly professed Christ. The Japanese are
now sending native Christian missionaries
Into Manchuria and elsewhere, as well as
Into Corea. Corea Is the land of the great
est possibilities.
'In China In 1840 there was but pne pro
fessed Christian In that vast empire of
tOO.GCiO.OOO people. In 1S63 there were 1.000,
and today the number exceeds 150,000. More
than 50,000 have been converted since the
Boxer rebellion. Think what It will be fifty
years hence. I believe that not only China,
but other nonchristlan nations, will be won
for Christ.
A rosy ef Martyrs.
"During the Boxer uprising US. of our mis
sionaries and their children were called as
martyrs to Christ's cause. The crusade was
not so much against Christians aa against
foreigners. But, nevertheless, between
SP.OOO and 40.000 Chinese converts also met
the death of martyrs because they would
nor deny the love of Jesus, who was more
than love and life to them.
"The Chinese as a people have many noble
traits, particularly In the reverence for
their parents and the aged. The awaken
ing of Japan has awakened China. Schools
are being opened, postofflces are being es
tablished, telegraph systems ars being In
troduced, and 10,000 or U.000 of their best
young men are now studying In the best
schools of Japan. Their military schools
are modeled upon the beet systems of
America and Europe. The Chinese army Is
being officered by the best military talent
available from the military schools of Ger
many and elsewhere.
"It Is our duty to encourage their friend
ship, rather than enmity. The western na
tions have awakened their military spirit,
though compelling them to pay enormous
Indemnities. We have compelled China to
organize. Let us Influence them by lead
Ing them to love us. Send our best men
there to hold up the Christian Ideal life be
fore them. The doors of opportunity are
now opened and we can go and preach
where we wllL- Are we doing what we can?
Now U our opportunity. Think of these
thlnga I will go back to China In a few
days to finish my life there, not that I
do not love my native land, but because I
believe my greatest duty Is there."
Dr. MosTatt aa Corea.
Rev. 8. A. Moffatt. D. D., for seventeen
years a missionary In Oorea, followed Dr.
Hunter Corbett.
"It Is a spiritual message I bring you,"
aid Dr. Moffatt. His address told of the
graauai wnnsuanisaiion or Lores, wuicn t
he compared as the Judea cf the Orient,
and from which may yet spring the
evangelisation of China and Manchuria.
He said:
"Seventeen years ago there was not a
professed Christian In Corea. Today nearly
10 per cent of the population of the larger
cities are under Christian Influences, snd
of eO.UOS people In the city cf Pl-Ang there
Is one Christian In each household. There
Is a Christian constltutency of WO.ioS people
In these three larger cities In northern
Corea,"
He spoke further of the rapidly growing
Christlon spirit throughout the kingdom
and that native churches were springing up
la all quarters, as are schools, all of which
is due to Christian Influences rather than
the spirit of western civilization.
Bew Saaa la Frteaaly.
Rev. 8. M. Jordan. D. D., principal of the
Presbyterlaa school of Teheran, Persia,
spoke at - considerable length upon the
strergtb cf the MohameJaa religion. "Persia
Is the keystone cf the arch of Ma.honilan
lam.'' he said, "a ad If the world la to be
won for Christ It must go Into the enemy's
country. The Mahometans are great mis
sionaries and hsve spread thyr faith Into
India where they have 7.Wi"iO devotees,
30.0no.oo0 m China, and many millions In
Africa. In Persia, where there are 7.(00.
0u Mahomedana assigned to the Presby
terian church, we have but fifteen min
isters." He spoke cf the friendliness of
the new shah toward the Christians, but
not In a way that anything can be hoped
from him for assistance In the advancement
of the Christian cause.
Christ's Appeal t Mea.
Another great meeting was held at the
Auditorium Wednesday afternoon, with Mr.
Robert E. 8 peer as the principal speaker.
The subject of his address waa "Christ's
Appeal to Men for the World." He spoke
of the urgency of the appeal and the Im
perative need for a response to that ap
peal. "Now la the time of all times to
carry the gospel to all the world under the
personal leadership of Christ," said he,
"and the Inspiration cf our personal rela
tionship to Him should excite our every
energy and every devotion. Let us go
forth with the grasp of His conquering
handV Invincible and unconquerable, and
we can achieve Impossible things. We are
going to stay by the work to the end and
carry It through or die In trying. Christ
wants Just a few more men to work In
His spirit. The moving spirit of missionary
work is knowledge. The time Is coming
when men will give mlllons of dollars for
the evangelization of the world. But It Is
not money alone that Is needed, but prayer
and obedience. The burden of Christ's ob
ligation rests upon the shoulders of all men
alike. He demands everything of all; not
SO per cent of money, time and life. If any
man cometh after Him let him take up the
cross of Christ and follow Him. Such Is
the divine injunction. We should follow
Hlm th Prlt of "" obedience.

happen at home If we let loose all these
energies for the evangelization of foreign
fields? I will tell you what will happen
the spirit ofeGod will come down Into our
churches once again. The Galileans were
world transforming men. So can we be.
Let us fight for Him and bestow upon Him
that glorious crown He came for 1.800 years
ago. Why not do It new?"
Force ef F.dacatloa.
T. H. P. Sailer, Ph. D.. educational sec
retary of the Presbyterian Board of For
eign missions, followed In a brief address
upon the theme of "The Inspiration of In
formation." In no country In the world
has there been given greater gifts for
education than In America. The life of our
nation depends upon education, and so It
will ever be where the government Is by
the people. By education they are com
petent to govern and govern Intelligently.
Despotisms do not desire that the people
shall be educated. This Is Illustrated In
Russia where, as the people become edu
cated, their Ideals differ from those of
despotic power. The application can bt
made to the old-time churches, which were
but oblong boxes with a puppet at one end.
With the growth of education the Ameri
can people demand an educated church
Tet even to this day there Is too much o:
a tendency to let the speaker do most ol '
the work, while the audience remains pas- I
slve. An educator who does not draw out
his pupils Is a failure. Bible study Is the
great factor In Christian evangelisation.
But too many people put off studying the
Bible or study It indifferently. They think
It a thing to be done at -any time. A
thing that can be done at any time had
better never be done at all. Devise some
system of Bible study. Devise some sys
tem of the study of missions. Some people
think that the study of foreign missions
Is too vast an undertaking for them and
hence do not study It at all. Study the
matter of mission work. Do ft systemat
ically with others." The Influence of social
contagion Is Incalculable. Tou ask, 'What
can I do? Go back to your church and
organize a small class for training lead
ers. Second, when your leaders are trained,
give them exercise, and form groups of
adults and children and get them inter
ested. Third, start In your Sunday school
a mission study class, and encourage Bible
study. Fourth, extend this work Into other
churches. The trouble with we Presby
terians Is that we are too autonomous."
CoBfereaeee at Ctaareaee.
The remainder of the afternoon was given
over to missionary conferences at the vari
ous churches. The mission study class
was the subject of the conference at the
Auditorium, with Prof. T. H. P. Sailer-as
leader, and J. Dickey Templeton of Bloom
lngton. III., as chairman.
A conference with theological students
was held at the Omaha Theological semi
nary, with Rev. -V WHalsey as leader
and Prof. M. B. Lowrie as chairman. Aa
Interesting conference with missionaries
was held at the First Presbyterian church
on the subject of China, with President D.
R. Kerr of Westminster college, Fulton,
Mo., as chairman and Rev. Hunter Corbett
and Rev. J. Ashley Fitch as missionaries
from that field.
The missions of Cores were the subject
of an Interesting meeting at Knox Pres
byterian church, with Rev. Carey F. Maore
of Fulton, III., as chairman and Rev. 8. A.
Moffett, missionary for seventeen years In
Cores, spoke very Interestingly on mission
ary conditions In that kingdom. Japan
was the mission subject treated of at Clif
ton Hill Presbyterian church, with Rev. J.
M. Leonard aa chairman and Rev. James
B. Ayres aa the principal speaker. At
Westminster church Rev. E. M. Wherry
gave an Interesting talk on the subject of
"What Should Be Done Immediately for
India," with Rev. George H. Simonson of
Pueblo, Colo., as the chairman of the meet
ing. Ijersla was the theme of the mis
sionary conference at Castellar church, with

"We are teaching the children of the
rcyal blood In Persia." said Rev. 8. M.
Jordan, principal of an American school at
Teheran, Persia, at the evening session.
"We are teaching these Mohammedan chil
dren the Christian religion within half a
mile of the royal palace and the nobility
seems anxious to send their sons to the
mission schorl to leam the Christian re
ligion. When the school was first estab
lished the Mohammedans did not attend, but
later came In numbers and last year of
TX boys IS were Mohammedans, the sons of
princes and cabinet officers and srns of
the wealthiest, who are destined to go
forth Into the world to work for weal or
woe.
"They have the pedagogue system there
the same as they had In Oreece centuries
ago. We do not say a hard word against
their prophets, but we put Ood's word Into
their hearts so they will not forget It all
the days of their life. The moral transfor
mation of tho whole lot Is apparent. They
have accepted the truths of Christianity:
we see them accepting Christianity as the
true religion. We tell them there is but one
true religion, one way unto God."
Mr. Jordan told several of his exper
iences with the yeutks of the royal house
who attended the school. One boy said:
"Mr. Jordan, how do you expect the young
men of Persia to have pure hearts when
we are not taught that by our religion."
"That Is the keynote It Is not In their
religion. They now strive for the pure
hearts and the right way. Low Ideals hold
them In a vice and the men of Christian
America can remedy the evil. It Is not a
question of what we can do about It. but
what will we do about It. May God give
us the vlHon to go forward and possess
the land for Him."
Mr. Jordan will speak at the business
men's prayer meeting at noon today In the
Pax ton block.
What One Catarrh Is Doing.
J. Campbell White, field secretary of the
United Presbyterian church and secretary
of the laymen's foreign movement, speak
ing of "What the Men of One Church are
Doing," told of the activity In his branch
of the church tn the field of foreign' mis
sions and very Interestedly gave figures to
show how much more could be accom
plished by a small effort on the part of
many.
"The deepest needs of the world are
spiritual, the greatest opportunity and all
forces are spiritual and the only permanent
values In the world are spiritual. Is it a
Wonder the Lord said: "Seek ye first the
kingdom of God." We brought nothing
Into this world and can take nothing out.
Men who put money as rapidly as they can
spare It Into the transformation of other
men's souls are laying up treasures In
heaven. One hundred thousand dollars In-!
vested and 50,000 heathens professing Jesus
Christ Is one record made by one grand
man,' a record to be proud of for any giver
as the result was marvelous. That may ac
complish more than all the llbralries of
Carnagle. Christ -recognized but one kind
if greatness. His standard was different
.'rom the rest of the world. He taught to
minister to men a man Is valued by what
he Is. How great his helpfulness-1. Christ
has given every follower of his a chance
to have a world-wide Influence. Are we al
lowing Christ to make out of us the great
men he wants? No men are made great
except in a great cause.- CTirist's great
program of redemption offers the opportun
ity. For the occupation and evangelization
of the field of India the United Presby
terian mlssonariea asked for 180 men to
carry on the work or one for every 25,000
men. We have aa many volunteers today
as we have missionaries. Our church Is
now giving about 2 for each member. The
Presbyterian church a little less than that
and only protectant churches about 50 cents
a year. We are seriously considering ask
ing $S a year.
"Shall we fall to give 10 cents a week to
the work of evangelizing the world? Col
leges which thought they would get less
money because of the gifts going to foreign
missions are attracting more attention
than ever and receiving larger gifts than
ever before. Last year America gave 29,000,
00t and Great Britain the same, and all the
rest of the world the t3.0u0.O00. This coun
try Is richer than England. Can . this na
tion support 25,000 missionaries at an ex
pense of $50,000,000 a year? Can we not af
ford to give to this service at least a street
car fare a week to the evangelization of
the world? It Is stated 2260,000,000 Is spent
In this country on churches each year and
29.000,000 went to foreign missions. In view
of this fact that America must take the
primary part In the evangelization of the
' world, the ratio for foreign missions Is not
right. I think all should give 25 per cent
of all you give to churches to the work
of foreign missions. We are investing our
Uvea here which Is a larger matter than
our money. The cheapest thing you can
give is money."
Mighty Men of Missions.
Rev. R. F. Coyle. D. D.. pastor of the
Central Presbyterian church of Denver and
ex-moderator of the general assembly, was
the last speaker of the evening and was
assigned the theme, "Men of Might in Mis
sions." In a most eloquent address Mr.
Coyle led his hearers along the path of
dynamics, showing there was but one all
Impelling force and that. Jesus Christ.
The mighty men of missions of whom he
spoke were Paul, Carey and Livingston.
He said: v
"The ability to do Is the main thing and
power la back of it, and will avails nothing
without the power to run It. Power Is the
fundamental base of religion and espe
cially In the work of evangelising the
world. There are the vested Interests of
mlllenlums of heathenism to deal with.
These are In front, but what are the foes
In the rear? They are the vices of civiliza
tion. In the front our representatives are
trying to evangelise the Filipinos, only to
find the work made bard by our own sol
diers. '
"Rationalism, and scepticism send their
books to pagan lands and put weapons In
the hands of the enemy. What force shall
we put against these? A force has been
furnished In the person of Jesus Christ. We
can draw on this force. In every direction
4 wa are aa Biruue aa uiv ming 10 wmcn wv
attach ourselves. If we are In a prairie
schooner we have not the power we would
have If tn a vestlbuled train. Fjjatlrne
can only be made of things or powers which,
are equal. The force of Christ sends Its
thrill all over this country and to all parts
of the world. The power which can bring
men together snd keep them together for
ages Is worth thinking about. Where are
the men who would die for the great heroes
of history, and yet that Is what they are
doing today for the ,Lord Jesus Christ
when they go to the Jungles of India.
They are bolstered tip by the force of the
love of God. There Is no dynamic In the
cold statement of truth. No victories are
gained by libraries of words, but by men
with flaming hearts. Truth that is not
felt can no more thrill the people than can
a stone Image. If there Is no shout of a
king tn our midst there can be no spoils
and no victory. The early disciples haTi
come to the point where God was not with
them He was In them. Feeling Is no proof
of the truth. It -may accompany error.
Tbe truth cannot be a force unless It Is
felt. To feel is to be awake, to have every
fiber throb with energy. Eliminate feeling
from the pulpit and you have December all
the year around.
Pant Greatest of Missionaries.
"The Christian's power chrystallzee Into
service. I name Paul first because he was
first. Civilisation came Into Europe with
the landing of the boat which brought him
across the sea. His activities are Innumer
able and his tireless feet were everywhere.
Were there no Paul Who can measure where
the world would be tonight? The power
of Jesus Christ behind him was his force.
'I can do all things through Christ' Wil
liam Carey was a second man of might
a shoemaker brooding In his shop, and he
began to talk and preach about missions.
He was squelched by his elders, but
nothing could stop him when God was pro
pelling him.
" 'I go down Into the pits and you must
hold the ropes," he said to his comrades
at home. He went. At the end of seven
years his first convert Is made, but he

PURE DRUGS
ACT

la Effect January 1, 1907
A GOOD LAW
terated, impure, worthless and even dangerous drugs.
This sort of thing has been an imposition, fraud and crime
against the People, as well as against the responsible manu
facturers of honest, reliable remedies, and it was high time for
it to be stopped. Misrepresentation and substitution of "some
thing just as good" will now be done away with.
' The principles of the Food and Drugs Act have been always
favored by conscientious and honorable manufacturers, who
recognized that Purity and Quality alone could permanently
secure the favor of the nation.
So the makers of Cascaret Candy Cathartic recognized the great prin
ciple of PURITY, QUALITY and MEDICINAL MERIT when the first
tablet was made, over eleven years ago, and have adhered to them ever
since. ,
Cascarets stand alone on their record, of having gained in that short
period of time the friendship, confidence and patronage of millions of
people, who are now buying Cascarets at the rate of over a MILLION
BOXES A MONTH, the largest sale of any Bowel Medicine in all tha
world.
We endorse the Pure Drug Law.
It suits us, because we have always stood before our friends unafraid
and clear of conscience, made our contracts good to every one, and in tht
conduct of our business, had the good fortune to help hundreds of thou
sands of our fellow-citiiens back to health and life.
We havt no reason to hesitate, and so we do not hesitate, to recom
mend Cascarets to all sufferers from Constipation and all complication
arising therefrom. Also any other diseases of the food-canaL We are ad
vertised by our loving friends and whenever the American people pass judg
ment in favor of an article after over ten years of investigation, trial and
test, their verdict speaks for itself.
The greatest merit of Cascarets however, is that of being a positiv
and reliable preventive of disease. The most important function of the
human body is to keep its digestive channels and passages, with over thirty
six feet of bowels, strictly clean and disinfected, so that natural operations
van take place in a natural manner, and the growth and activity of disease
germs can be prevented.
A Cascaret at night before "turning in" will keep your Bowels regular,
and your whole digestive canal wholesome, pure and normally active.
No matter what you have been taking, buy a little 10c. box TODAY
at your own druggist, and let the results tell their own story. It means a
lot of health and comfort in store for you. m
