CHURCH ACTS ON MEMORIALS
One Adopted Proposing Change in the
Method of Selecting Elders.
ANOTHER ON SAME TOPIC KILLED
Question ' of Ministers Who I'se
Tobacco Brought t'p, hot Confer
race Takes 5o Aotlon on
the Proposition.
' TJie Deg Moines conference of the Meth
odist church, by a vote of 131 to 63, favored
the change In the method of the appoint
ment of presiding elders as suggested In
the memorial presented by Rev. O. W.
Flfer of Des Moines. The memorial was
ordered sent to the general conference to
be voted on there. The plan suggested by
Rev. Mr. Flfer permits the conferences to
nominate the presiding elders, the nomi
nations, however, to be merely of an ad
visory character, the presiding bishops still
retaining the right of appointment.
Borne of the opponents to the proposed
change attempted to have the memorial
laid on the tablo and only failed by the
close vote of 75 to 87. When the resolution
sending the memorial to the general con-'
ference had been, adopted Bishop Goodsell
took occasion to make a few remarks
which Indicated he was not in sympathy
with the proposition. "I know of nothing,"
he said, 'which would be more difficult to
administer than this plan. The nomina
tion, though only advisory, would carry
with It the presumption of appointment. '
And I do not feel that the bishops can
consider only a man's qualifications In ap
pointing a presiding elder. When , I ap
point a presiding elder I always try to
secure a man who Is fit for the position,
but I also take Into consideration the
effect the appointment may have upon
regular paBtoral appointments. I want to
benefit the active pastors aa far as pos
sible and If I can help twenty ministers by
appointing for presiding elder some par
ticular man who Is well qualified, I make
the appointment. The bishop Is the only
man who can take all these things Into
consideration. Moreover, we, the bishops,
are held responsible for all the appoint
ments, yet the ministers- and the laymen
keep fighting against us, despite the fact
that we are exercising only the authority
to which we are entitled."
No Claaa Bishops.
. The proposition to allow one or rftore
bishops to be elected for a Jurisdiction ex
clusively among people of particular lan
guages or races, a proposition, referring
particularly to the negroes, was voted
down by a vote of 120 to 22.
The questions of the election of presiding
elders by the preachers Instead of by the
bishops and the removal of the ministerial
time limit were Indefinitely postponed by
an almost unanimous vote.
"Should brethren who ore In full con
nection with the church and who use to
bacco be continued In the active minis
try?" was a question which had beer
handed Bishop Goodsell and which he rear
before the conference. Bishop Goodsell salt.
It was not his duty to answer the question,
but that It was one for the conference to
determine. The conference, however,
showed no inclination to take up the ques
tion and It was dropped,
the first year of their prescribed course of
study, were admitted to full membership
In the conference. .Those admitted were:
Orvllle F. Howard, Merle F. Gable, Edward
L. Stone, Fred A. Meade, Roscoe B. Shep
ard, Roy W. Thomas, Edwin C. McDay and
Charles Zlmmerln. R. W. Thomas, It was
announced, had passed the highest examina
tion, with a grade of 93V4 per cent. They
were addressed by Bishop Goodsell.
Rev. W. F. Rlggs made a short address
relative to the work of the American Bible
society, which, he stated, distributed an
nually 2.000.000 Bibles, of which 250.000 went
to foreigners In their own tongues.
A draft for $2,284 was received by the
bishop yesterday morning from the Metho
dist Book Concern, that being the dividend
to which the Des Moines conference Is en
titled. In accordance with the usual cus
tom, it will be used for the relief of super
numeraries. "Entirely and absolutely Innocent of the
charges preferred against him," was the
verdict of the "select number" before whom
the trial of Rev. A. D. Davis of Lacona
was held. The finding of the commission
was announced by the conference last even
ing and was received with much gratifica
tion by the conference. Rev. Mr. Davis was
at once reinstated and, needless to say, was
the recipient of hearty congratulations from
his many friends In and out of the confer
ence. Rev. Mr. Davis was defended by
Rev. A. A. Walburn, who Is well known
in Council Bluffs, he being the chaplain of
the Fifty-fifth regiment, Iowa National
Guard.
Speaking of the trial, one of the commis
sion said last night: "Mr. Davis came ab
solutely spotless out of the hearing. There
was not a scintilla of evidence to support
the charges made against him. There was
absolutely nothing against his moral char
acter. The election of six delegate s to the general
conference, which will meet in Baltimore
next May, Is proving a tedious task for the
conference, so keen Is the rivalry among
those anxious to erve in this capacity.
I'p to last night but two of the six dele,
gates nud been elected, although the vote
had been taken on a third, but will not be
announced until this morning's session. The
two elected are Rev. B. F. Miller, presiding
elder of the Charlton district, and Dr.
Fletcher Brown of Indlanola, field secretary
of the Preachers' Aid society.

Lay Conference.
The lay electoral conference which met
yesterday at Trinity Methodist church
elected the following six delegates to the
general conference:
Charles R. Brenton,' Dallas Center, Ames
district.
C. R Benedict. Shelby. Atlantic district.
W. G. Clark, Corydon, Chariton district.
HORSES. CATTLE and
HOUSEHOLD FURNITURE
at. one-half the usual rate.
C. L. Btratton, Red Oak, Creston district.
Dr. C. 8. Erickscn, Council Bluffs, Council
Bluffs district.
Mrs. T. W. Lamme, Pleasantvtlle, Des
Moines district.
Other candidates for delegate from the
Council Bluffs district were State Senator
C. O. Baunders. Dr. G. M. Agan of Silver
City, C. C. Clifton and Miss Lou Mann,
both of Council Bluffs.
The meeting was presided over by Hon.
B W. Weeks of Guthrie Center, who cre
ated somewhat of a sensation by Intro
ducing the following resolutions, which
were voted down at the afternoon session,
much to the relief. It Is said, of the mem
bers of the clerical conference. '
We believe that the financial Interests
and demands of the church are sii vast
and exacting under Its present policy of
operation that the responsibility therefor
should not be assumed by the pastorate:
that by reason of this responsibility and
the multifarious duties Imposed thereby
the spiritual growth of the church Is hin
dered and the liberty and efficiency of the
pastorate Impaired.
We believe that the laws and rules of
the church should he so changed and
modified as to permit and require the
laity to be responsible for the financial
requirements and disbursements thereof;
that all duties of church policy, other
than those relating to spiritual things, be
put upon the laity; that pastors should
as much as possible be relieved from all
secular and material duties.
We believe that the performance of pas
toral duties and functions should not be
required of presiding elders; that laymen
should be eligible to that office; that the
salary of that office should be greatlv re
duced; that each district should elect Its
own presiding elder and fix his salary.
We believe that each conference should
have a conference bishop, whose duties
would be similar to that of a bishop, with
certain limitations, whose term of office
should be for four years, and who should
reside within the conference durlna- his
term; that he should be elected quadren- j
many Dy me annual conrerenco of which
the lny electoral conference Is a part, and
should the office become vacant for any
reason and the annual conference. Includ
ing the lay electoral conference, he not
in session, then the bishop who held the
last preceding annual conference should ap
point. Have your eyes tested and get a pair
of our made-to-order glasses and be sat
isfied. Dr. W. W. Magarrell, Optometrist,

COCKCILMEJf HAVE MVEI.T TIM IB
Each Side Aecnsee Other of Bad Falt'i
on Water Proposition.
One element was conspicuous by Its ab
sence at the meeting of the committee of
the wholo of the city council last night and
that was harmony. If the clerical delegates
to the Methodist conference, a few blocks
away, could have heard the recriminations
which passed back and forth between the
councllmen, they would undoubtedly have
dropped upon their knees and offered up a
prayer. From start to finish of the meet
ing there waa nothing but bickering and
Councilman Younkerman's water rate ordi
nance was the cause of It all.
Councllmen Olson, who presided, Wallace
and Younkerman were lined up against
Councllmen Fleming, Hendrlx,, Maloney and
Smith, while Attorney Thomas Q. Harrison
sat at Younkerman's right hand and at
regular Intervals prompted him what to say
next. Each side accused the other of bad
faith and that was about all there was
to the meeting. Nothing was accomplished.
It was decided to postpone consideration
of the resolutions relative to the construc
tion of a new water works system until
'he return to the city of Mayor Macrae.
Congressman Smith addressed the com
ilttee relative to the protested hydrant
.erttal bill of the water works company and
t was decided to recommend that It be
paid at the rate of $45 a hydrant up to June
1 and at $60 from that date, the difference
to be referred to the Judiciary committee.

TEST CORPORATION LAWS
One Object ii to Find Out Whether
They Are Capable of Enforcement.
OTHER TO CURB CORPORATIONS
If l.nvra Are Weak Attorney funeral
Wants to Kind It Ont Before
the Next Session of the
Legislator.
From a Staff Correspondent.)
DES MOINES. Sept. 14.-Sp?clal.)-Ac-tlon
will he undertaken soon by Attorney
General Byers to enforce a number of
the corporation laws of the state of Iowa.
Several suits will be started In the state
courts, and while the genernl purpose Is
the simple reason that there Is evidence
that some of the laws ore being broken
there are also some other reasons. Chief
of these Is a desire to put the laws" to the
test of the courts, so that If there Is any
weakness anywhere the next legislature
can correct It. The fact Is, that hardly
any of the more Important corporation
laws of the state of Iowa have ever been
tested In the courts. There has been talk
of revising them, but It Is felt that there
ought first be some effort to enforce them
as they are. The last legislature added
some new ones to the list.
It is also proposed through these suits
to Inform the corporations that they must
respect end obey the laws of the state
of Iowa. It Is proposed that there will be
no hysteria accompanying the filing of the
suits. There will be no wholesale filing
of suits such as has taken place in some
states, about the only accomplished pur
pose of which has been to advertise the
attorney general's office.
A number of times In recent years there
has been complaint from the office of the
secretary of state that corporations did
not obey the law which requires that
corporations organized- In other states
must file certified copies of their articles
of Incorporation In this state before c"o
lng business here. The secretary of state
has had no means of ferreting out cor
porations doing business here that have
not complied with this law, but the at
tention of the office has been called to
cases frequently. It Is proposed now that
all such shall be prosecuted.
Gnrst to Boston.
Lieutenant Governor and Mrs. Warren
Garst will leave Saturday for Boston,
Mass., where they have a number of rela
tives. While no formal announcement has
been made, it Is generally understood that
Lieutenant Governor Garst Is a candidate
for governor, and upon his return to tho
state will probably make a number of
speeches. He has spoken In a rtumber of
places recently.

Will Still Fight Two-Cent Law.
Judge Carr, attorney for the Iowa Central
and Minneapolis & St. Louis railroads, said
today that the suits to annul the Iowa
2-cent fare law will not be dropped and that
the action In Minnesota In sustaining the
law will have nothing to do with the suit
by his roads. Hf pointed to the success In
Pennsylvania where the law was held to
be unconstitutional, and said that before
November 1 a substitute petition would be
filed in the federal court here.

vided with tickets and took the train for
Omaha, nothing doubting. But the plans
for the meeting failed to carry out, jnd
the young rrn-n did not show up as they
promised. The girls arrived In Bouth

looked for her penjietbeiok that she might
pay him for the work. He was to have
received 50 cents. She suspected him, and
retiring, she secured a gun and held the
man at bay for a time, hoping to secure
the aid of the police. Then sho went to a
