L. Loveland Comss From Topeka, Kan., to Pulpit of First Church. COMMITTEES AT STATION Minister and AVlfe, Tired After long Trip, Arc Taken to Apartments in Alexandru. Vntil Par sonage . Is Read)-. ' Promptly on schedule time, 7:15 o'clock last night, the O.-W. IC & N. train brought Dr. Frank. Lafayette Loveland, the new pBtor of the First Methodist Episcopal Church, and his wife Into the Union Depot. As the Lovelands stepped off the train they were met by G. F. Johnson, chairman of the reception committee. The other members of the committee were wait ing around one of the depot pillars, where the pastor and his wife were exposed to the flashlights and cameras of the waiting newspaper photograph ers'. , ' Then Mr. Johnson introduced the rest of the reception "committee and the Ladles' Aid Society committee and a number of others who had come to greet the new pastor and his wife, and the two tired wayfarers shook hands and said a few pleasant words of greeting to everyone. Dr. Loveland is a large man of florid complexion with - iron gray hair. He impresses one as being a strong man and has the appearance of a statesman. He has the reputation of being not only a successful pastor, but an orator of distinction. Doctor Annwerx Question!. Although both Dr. Loveland and Mrs. I-oveland must have been tired after three days and nights' traveling, for they left Topeka, Kan., Monday night, the doctor was willing to answer all tlie questions put to him. "Although last Sunday was one of the stormiest that I have seen in my four years' stay in Topeka," said Dr. I Loveland, "the church was packed at both morning and evening services. And the last day of my pastorate I re ceived 25 new members into the First Church, teii of them prominent busi ness men of Topeka. "Before leaving we were tendered one of the most gracious receptions I have ever participated in, and I want to say, even though it may sound a little bit -onceited, that the people of Topeka liave no great love for Portland for taking me away, except in so far as they will be compensated for my trans fer by the acquisition of Dr. Young, who. from what I hear of him, will be well able to fill my shoes." said Dr. Loveland. "At any rate, there will bo open arms and a cordial reception for my successor." Dr. Loveland said that the bfficial board of the First Church in Topeka was composed of 40 of the finest men In the capita of the State of Kansas. Grrnl Temple Told About. "We have the greatest Sunday school temple in our social service building in the whole Mtehodist Kpiscopal Church," he added with some pride, for Port land's new pastor was the man who bulls, this temple, which is the pioneer of Us kind in the United States. "The First Church of Topeka." said Dr. Loveland, "has a membership of between 1400 and 1500 and there are nearly 2000 Sunday school pupils. So you can see that it was something of a wrench for me to give up an insti tiution like that, which in the four years of my pastorate I had helped to build up." The Lovelands have two children. The son is a practicing physician in Topeka. The daughter is a vocal teach er In New York City. She is now tak ing vocal instruction, said Mrs. Love land, to fit herself for the concert etage Mr. and Mrs. G. F. Johnson took Dr. and Mrs. Loveland to apartments in Alexandra Court, where they will make their home until the parsonage of the First Methodist Church, at 221 Eleventh street is put in readiness to receive them.

WILSON POLICY CRITICISED Some Progressives Attend Columbus Meeting and Hear Senator Borah Denounce Their Attitude Toward Monopoly. COLl'MBCS, O., Feb. 26. Asserting that Democratic rule in state and Na tion Is a failure and charging that the so-called political machine which has been established in Ohio by Governor Cox is a menace to free government, Ohio Republicans arid some Progres sives 'gathered today at a "harmony banquet." Ex-United States Senator Foraker assailed President Wilson's Mexican- policy, terming it a "pusillanimous policy," and criticised the President for urging that American ships pay tolls through the Panama canal. . United States Senator Borah, of Idaho, the principal speaker, in in dorsing woman suffrage was greeted by cheers. "We have found every ten dency of equal suffrage in Idaho" for good," he said. War on Cox Demanded. Mr. Foraker and United States Sen ator Burton, who also spoke, referred to woman suffrage as a "minor ques tion." . - Senator Borah scored the Progres sives' principle of regulation of mo nopoly. "Destroy the monopoly," w the Senator's plea. 'Even if the Republican party were at an end," he said, "I could never join the third party so long as it stands as it does if I correctly under stand its leaders on this question of monopoly." "Monopoly," said Senator Borah, 10,000 times worse than black slavery, It is the father of class domination the molder of chains both for the body and for the soul, and cannot exist any form with safety to the people in a republic. Here, sir Is where I could never be a third party man. Upon this issue I would have to disagree with that even if I agreed with them upon all others. "Mr. Beveridge, who has spoken to you eloquently and effectively, says that trusts and monopolies are 'the richest, ripest fruits of civilization'. He says in print that the beef monopoly, the steel monopoly, the Standard Oil Company and other monopolies are the result of the combination of genius and energy and of great benefit to the coun try. These industrial combinations, he says (speaking particularly of the beef trust, the Standard Oil Company and the steel trust), have steadied the whole commercial world and have ex tended the period of prosperity by the steadiness they have given to the com mercial' and financial world. More than that, he says, they have "actually caused. compelled the organization of labor on modern lines. "I do not know just what he has reference to by 'modern lines," but I hardly presume he refers to the fact that an investigation two years ago disclosed that the steel trust worked men 12 hours a day and seven days in the week." Tariff RevlKlon Criticized. Senator Borah denounced Democratic tariff revision. "I do not understand how our third party friends can indorse that ' policy," he added. "And yet it received the votes of all the declared members of the party in the Senate and the most of the members of the party in the House. I do not Bee why if a man be lieves in these policies he should not loin the Democratic party outright. D. Meade ilassie, of Chiilico the, an "" OHIO REPUBLICANS BEGIN WAR COX it- UR. AXD JIK& FRAJ'K LAFAYETTE LOVELAND, ex-Roosevelt Republican, characterized Governor Cox as the "common enemy against whom Progressives and Repub licans should unite." He asserted that the people of the state now found themselves in condition "under, which they were being governed by Cox com missions." .

"My hands, knees and ankles would swell . so that I had to have a nurse to care for me. "I was under he care of physicians and tried numerous remedies, but re ceived nothing -more than temporary relief until about two years ago, when I had the pleasure of meeting Mr. John D.

BOYS' SHOP, SECOND FLOOR BEN SELLING questions concerning- the proposed legislation. Charles K. Matthewson was spokes man and the members of the commit tee were in accord on every proposition except one advanced by Dr. C. It. Van Hise. This was an amendment under which bodies of such individuals as lumbermen and fruitgrowers desiring to form co-operative institutions might submit their plan of organization to the trade commission, which, if it 'approved the plan, would issue a permit. This plan, Dr. Van Hise -thought, would be a help to men who desired to do a legiti mate business, but did not .know how far they could go under the law and perhaps could not afford to pay high priced lawyers. Mr. Matthewson ' ar gued that this plan was unworkable and tmwise. . eivlandii Amendment Favored. The. rest of the discussion was on the trade commission bill with the amendments drawn by Chairman New lands. Mr. Matthewson said the committee felt the Newlands amendments would make a great Improvement In the bill and would meet most of the criticisms that might have been made. He doubted whether it would be advisable to re quire reports from industrial corpora tions, and said the agitation of this question was already causing alarm in business circles. He expressed the opin ion that it would be unconstitutional to authorize the committee to have access to the private papers of a corporation. Mr. Matthewson thought it unwise to draw a line as to the size of corpora tions compelled to make reports, and suggested that the requirement should include all corporations except those subject to the Interstate Commerce and the Comptroller of the Treasury. He said he could, by the adition of a few lines, amend the Sherman anti trust law so it would be satisfactory. He would say in his amendment that the law was not intended and should not be construed to prohibit combina tions in restraint of competition unless such combinations were against the public welfare.
