JONH S. FITZCIBBONS. Editor and Business Manager llbinders are having their 1 he sne time now. In a few weeks the content will be over. The people of the United States will have spoken and xhi'ir voice must be heeded. People nowadays do not give proper consideration to the advantages they are enjoying. Take for instance the telephone. What a blessing that invention is to the people at large. "Who would be without one? Who would go back to the old days when the telephone was unknown? Echo answers, who. 'When W. J. Bryan was. in St. Louis yesterday he submitted to an interview. He said: "I ave not changed my position on the money question You ask how I can vote for Judge Parker ? I reply how could I advance the cause of bimetalism by aid ing to defeat him? I suspected that Parker was for the gold stan dard before the convention. After ward I knew it. But so is Roosevelt, and as one of these two is to be elect ed, I must choose upon other issues.' ' The election is near at hand and il behooves Republicans to be on the alert. Hvery man who has a vote should take advantage of the great privilege vouchsafed him by the con stitutidn of the United States. The ritrht of suffrage is a great privilege and it is not half enough appreciated in thisi'eountry. The ballot box has a sacredness about it that should be guarded .well. Let every voter go to the polls on election day and cast his ballot for the country and its people. The party that has kept the shops. factories and mines opened and has given the laboring man honest wages for an honest day's work. That the general attitude toward the public schools is rapidly changing and that the opposition with which innovations in education are met on every hand is "a form of conceit," was the declaration made yesterday by William J. Bogan, superintendent of the Chicago Athenaeum, before the Chicoga Commons Club. Every man thinks of the public school as it was when he went to school," he said. "It seems as if it was all right when it turned out such intellectual prodigies as we are. We are living in the past and do not appreciate that with growth in other lines there also must come .growth in the public school. One of the most distressing thinsrs to the teacher is the lack of sympathy on the part of parents for the teacher. This is especially true of the well-to-do parents whise children are pampered rf at home and expect to be pampered at school. These people insist that their darlings lp treated as superior beings. What puch bovs need is the "give and tafce'A; training engenedered by SI eontactvith the children of the pub-; lie seh$l. '' l,v :!'::' -': The Mbor vote' of the country from all indications will go largely, f or; the Republican ticket this vear; The un ion organizations among the working" men throughout the nation are generally well pleased with what the administration of President Roosevelt has done for the cause of labor and mean to. support him in order to keep conditions as thev are.

His position in the great coal tsirke a few years ago was directly in favor of the miners in their demands for better wages, and he forced the settl " ment of the strike on that basis. The president has been active in the enforcement of the Chinese exclusion act and other acts of congress intended to keep cheap foreign labor out of the country. Recently the Union Protective League, an organization cf Chicago and New York union labor leadersfi has declared openly for the election of Roosevelt and Firbanks in a booklet addressed to the trades unions of the country. EPISCOPALIANS AND DIVORCE. There now seems to be little doubt that the" Protestant Episcopal church of America will alter its canon relating to the marriage of divorced persons so that a man or woman divorced for any cause will not be permitted to remarry through the sacred offices of a Episcopal clergyman. The general convention devoted two hour8 to the discussion of this problem yesterday and while no agreement was reached it heard a majority report favoring revision of the canon and applauded fervent addresses by many delegates who asserted that the hour had come for "the ehureh- to obliterate a "constantly growing; menacetto society." v ;v ;'- - V .Early in'lhe discussion there developed general opposition to the presr ent canon, which permits the innocent party of a pair divorced on the ground of infidelity to be married again, though denying this privilege to the other. The majority, however, presented a report asking the convention" to leave well enough alone," and only to strengthen the cause by instructing clergymen to look to the civil court which sundered the marriage tie for such facts concerning a divorce as were needed. By this plan, it was held, the minister would make no blunder and the innocent party could be recognized easily and given "'the marriage vows. The debate became so ardent that delegates asserted the verses in St. Matthew, dealing with divorce were by not means clear. In this, chapter, said certain of the deputies, Christ took a firm stand against many mar ried persons, and in reply to many questions denied the righteousness or wisdom of the law of Moses, which permitted legal separation. The chairman of the committee on cannon, Rev. Dr. F. P. Davenport, of Memphis, submitted the majority report, which recommended the fol lowing amendments: If any minister of this church shall have reasonable cause to doubt whether a person desirous of feeing ad mitted to holy baptism or to confirmation or to the holy communion has been married otherwise than as the word of God and discipline 1 of this church allow;rueh . minister, before receiving ; such person, to these. .ordinances, -shall - refer the case- td the bishop . for his godly judgment shall in any ease refuse the sacraments to a penitent person, in jniminet . ganger of death', or to" any person who shall solemnly aver' that he, or she, was the innocent party in a divorce for the cause of infidelity.'. '. No minister shall solemnize a marriage between any two persons unless, bp Inquiry, he shall have satisfied neither person has been or is the husband or the wife of any other person then living, from whom

he or sne lias been divorced for ancause arising after marriage. 1 If any question shall arise under this 'eanon in a diocese or missionary jurisdiction in which there is no bishop, such questions shall be referred to some bishop to be - designated by the standing committee, and the bishop to whom such questions have been referred shall thereupon make inquiry" in such manner, as he shall deem expedient, and shall deliver his judgment in the premises. -. o CoL Averill Dead.

PURDUE INSTITUTE Many Farmers Attend the Seventh Annual Conference. Lafayette, Ind., October 13. The seventh annual conference of farmers' institute workers began at Purdue University yesterday and will continue through today and tonight, when the delegates will leave for their homes. The institute this year was made a joint feature with the third annual State-wid excursion and picnic, and hundred of visitors who came yesterday stayed over for the institute conference. The sessions are being held in the assembly hall in the agricultural building. .The visitors were shown about the grounds, visited the Purdue farm buildings, laboratories and dairy and watched the Avork of the agricultural students. " ; The feature of the meeting was the address of W. D. Hoard, of Wisconsin, former governor of that State, and editor of an agricultural pubication. Mr. Hoard is a. strong advocate of the introduction of the studv of agriculture into the schools of the rural communities, and he urged that the subject be considered. Yesterday morning the session of the conference of institute worker? began in Agricultural hall. The attendance this year is much larger than ever before and a rather remark" able feature is the presence of Tippecanoe county farmers. Prof. W. C. Latta, head of the agricultural department, is taking a prominent part in the conference and is- directing its sessions, assisted by his associates, The sessions continued through yesterday with papers on agricultural work and talks by experts and laymen. Today the program will be completed. FELL FROM TENDER And Had His Head Badly Cut A Colored Laborer. The city ambulance was called about 1 :30 this morning to the Pennsylvania round house, where William Patterson, a colored laborer had fallen from the tender of an engine and cut his head open. The injured man was removed to the office of Dr. Marvel, where a wound about two inches long on the right side of the head was dressed. His right leg-was also slightly bruise'd. Patterson was assisting in coaling an engine when the accident occurred. He lives at 009 South Ninth street. Bertsch Improving. Albert Bertsch, the Centerville man who Avas so badly hurt Monday morning , by being crushed by a tree, is improving as rapidly as could be expected and his physician. Dr. Fonts, expects to have him out of danger in a" short time. The crop of sweet .potatoes on the Virginia eastern shore this season was one of the largest .ever .known. The yield has been most satisfactory, and the farmers would have had good year but for the price of their potatoes 'being so low. The market price' for prime stock at railroad stations and 'steamboat wharves is only S5 centfc for a barrel. The low price is attributed to large crops in other sections, to its being presidential election year, and to the mammoth yield of all, kinds of fruit throughout the land. : It is thought now that the potatoes would not be worth digging but for the good work of the Eastern Shore 'of Virginia Produce Exchange Richmond (Va.)

PHILIPPINE FOES - 9 ' Students at Chicago University Once Were Bitter Enemies. Chicago,- 111., October 13. That two students cf the University of Chicago, at present Avorking together in amity, were formerly pitted against each other is the discovery made yesterday by John B. Kenne, formerly an American soldier and at present head Avaiter in the university commons, and Fredrico Sarabia, a natiA-e Filipino, who is acting as Kenue's assistant. The two young men, both of whom are working their way through college have been employed side by side since the opening of the fall term. Thy haA'e discovered in chance conversation that they fought on opposite sides in the Philippine Avar in at least three battles. In the early part of 1S99 Kenne Avas a member cf Young's scouts. Sarabia at the same time Avas a sergeant in the First Manila regulars, a regiment Avhich formed a part of the first division "Aguinaldo's oavii" -under the command of the Filipino general Pilar. The forces of which the men Avere members met in conflict in the battles of Manila, San Isidero and Tarbou bridge, in each of which the Manila regulars Avere defeated.

Tokio, Oyama, October 12 Reports of .fighting' along -the Entire front on October 10. The Japanese are gaining ground and the Russian attack oh Sienchuang on Ilnn River, 35 miles southwest of -Mukden Avas repulsed.- ' St. Petersburg, Pa., October 12. The battle below Mukden continues to rage along .the entire front and Kuropatkin reported the " Japanese stubbornly holding their own. Artillery bore the brunt of battle. The Japanese still hold Yen Tai. The battle is continuing today. Literary Note. The announcement that "BreAvster's Millions," by Richard Greaves, Avas really Avritten by George Barr McCutcheon, throws an interesting light- upon the methods of publishers and the-taste of the public. At the time of its publication, the book Avas exploited as the Avork of an unknown author, and his photograps A-ere printed in the literary columns of newspapers all over the country. As they represented a kind of matinee girl's idol, they probably helped to give the book a start. Details of the career of this imaginary author were also printed until the public began to grow interested in the new celebrity. With this kind of aid, but without the help of the reputation of its real author, the book sold on its merits, and .justified Mr. McCutcheon 's opinion that 'popularity lay- in the quality of the Avorkitself rather jthaa in the fame of the .writer. The) story Avas the outcome of an idea suggested to Mr. McCutcheon by 'his brother Ben as a theme for a short story. In Discussing it Avith his publisher, Mr. Stone thought. the-' scheme large enough for a novel, and wanted it worked up for immediate publication. But as another new novel, by Mr. McCutcheon had already been announced and advertised, it Avas decided to publish "BreAvster "anonymously and se if the public really liked the work as well as it liked the author. As a result. Mr. McCutcheon wrote the -hook in six weeks and published it under the nora de plume of Richard Greaves. Its success has been notable enough to justify the belief that merit will be discovered eA'en when it wears a disguise.
