MR. JOHNSON AND CONGRESS

''It is true that I shall support the Democratic national ticket this fa, for I heartily approve the platform and nominees of that party, and as heartily disapprove the policies (that are at issue) as well as the candidates of the Republicans. Any sound money man who could support the Democratic party in 1900, could consistently take no other course this year. These sentiments apply to the State as well as national ticket and their force is only emphasized by the unrepubliean and autocratic conduct of Governor Durbin and President Roosevelt since they have .been in office." TH jf-H 11 H: H'i The above is a paragraph from Mr. B. B, Johnson's letter to the Sun-Telegram, declining: to be the Democratic candidate for Congress in the sixth congressional district. His entire letter is a frank statement of Lis attitude to the two leading; parties, but this cirticism on Governor Durbin and President Roosevelt are manifestly unjust. "Unrepubliean and

autocratic" can scarcely be appplied to the official acts of these two executives. All men are mortal and all men have made mistakes. Governor Durbin "s administration has not been entirety popular, but it has been efficient and honest. Lay bare all his business transactions and they will be. found to be stamped .with honesty. What more does the public want? This criticism is still more erroneous when applied to President Roosevelt. No president was ever more fearless and independent than the present occupant of the White House. Just because public officers can not be domineered by outside influences, they are regarded as "unrepubliean and autocratic." There are thousands of people who have suggestions and

opinions which they would give Mr. Roosevelt and give them gratis, too, but he could not even listen to them. He is a busy man and must be responsible for his own acts. He has "done things" during the last three years and his acts will bear inspection. Like those of Governor Durbin, they bear the stamp of honesty and can be used as campaign literature. This can not be said of the public acts of all executives either in the States or in the Nation. The more you grind a diamond, the more brilliant it becomes. The more the other fellows criticise President Roosevelt the more his official acts show his wisdom and statesmanship.

NO CAOSE

T. A. Fitzgibbons.

"Uncle Joe" Cannon knows a good speaker when he hears him. Consequently he invited James E., Watson, our sixth district congressman to accompany him on a two weeks' tour. Mr. Watson will speak from the rear platform and will not need to study the cyclopedia between stations. This is not only a great compliment to our young congressmen but to the judgment of Mr. Cannon as well.

One of our exchanges, in commenting on the Democratic State convention, says the two wings of the Democratic party "are working together more harmoniously than at any time since 1S9G." This should be no discouragement to the grand old Republican party that has no "wings," but present a soild front to the enemy not only during the campaign, btu at all times.

One of our contemporaries is lamenting about the burdens of the American laboring man under the protective system. Under our protec

tive system, the laboring man is able to bear his burdens. Give us any

other, or the other system and his burdens will be doubled and his

abilitv to bear them halved.

ing Piper Heidsieck in this territory.

In those days Tom used to carry in his sample case a pair of Galways which were the envy of every man from the old sod, and he not only gained popularity but sold goods in carload lot as the result of his irresistible fund of Irish wit and story. Even to this day he sccarcely ever goes to a town where he is not asked, "Have you got

your whiskers with you, 'Gil?' "

while it is not uncommon to be addressed by those who have known him for years as "Mr. Gilhooley." Tom took to the road for the Amer-

MPORTANT

EVENT

Will Be the Opening of the New Chapel of the Wesleyan Church. One of the most interesting events of the week is the opening of the new chapel of the Wesleyan Methodist church on South Tenth street, this evening, the doors open at half past seven o'clock. A specially arranged musical program has been prepared and there will be speeches by prominent citizens, among them, Mr. George H. Knollenberg, Mr. John Weller, Rev. Gaines, of the Second Baptist church; Rev. Baker, of the A. M .E. church, and Rev. Randolph, of the Ninth street Baptist church.

In addition to an entirely new chapel, this congregation has enlarged its parsonage and beautified it throughout. More than $400 debt has been paid during the past year and altogether the occasion this evening marks a fitting close to a prosperous and profitable year. Rev. C. P. Cook, pastor, extends an invitation to the public, and everyone will be welcome.

Glen Miller Park. The Richmond band has been in almost constant practice for several months and is making excellent music. The band will play in Glen Miller park next Sunday, both afternoon and evening. 5-2

Wednesday Evening. The evening session opened by singing "Faith is the Victory" after which prayer was offered by Chsa. Francisco. The East Main Street Quarettte then rendered some special music. Prof. Elbert Russell lectured on the

subject of "The Vhristian Paradox."

.Nearer the Hearts oi man is sorrow

than laughter.

This is the reason that Jesus is

called the "Man of Sorrows." In a little book entitled "A Worn

an's Ideal," is a Christian Paradox. This shows that to gain the place of a

self renounced life, we must throw awav our youthful selfishness. The

disciples of Jeseus expected to gain

terms and still show His fatherly love. Some of us are prodigal sons, and some are still working for wages, (an eternal life.) The Christian paradox is that "A Man to save his life must loose it." It is necessary if a seed of any kind is to have new life, that it be placed in the ground, and swell and decay. That it must loose its old life in or

der to have new. Therefore to have

new life it must' change. We attempt to embalm religion and keep it un

changed. We are too apt to cling to

the creed that once meant life for us.

No. We can only live as we die to the present life. There must be something more than a mere ehange. The

farmer must plant his seed in the

spring if he would keep it by raising more. Again we find loneliness the greatest of curses. If a man lives

alone and gives to the rest of the world he reaps his reward. So wTith everything. As soon as we stop doing

and giving to the world, we suffer the results. Happiness and peace are the results of a self denying life. Happiness is the result of righteous living. The happy people are those who forget themselves and help others. Self denial is the initiation to the fellowship of pain and death;

same manner many of us would like to be saints but we turn away like the rich young ruler and will not drink

the cup. This then is the Christian

Paradox.
