AA--Z WWW» RAG TIME SERMONS I was talking to a prominent church woman this week about a free reading room for Medford. “It would be an excellent thing,” said she, “but 1 doubt if it would be possible to establish one.” When asked for a reason, she said the people of Medford, especially the church people, were di- ided into cliques, and whatever one faction favored the other would oppose. This is certainly a very regrettable state of affairs. No matter by whom, or What clique, it is that proposes some thing for the benefit of the city, all the church people, above any other class, should support the movement. Other wise their religion is not worth much. If a Christian cannot ris«) above per sonal jealousy she or he has a very poor conception of the teachings of the Bible. I am loath to believe that such a condition exists among the ehurch people of Medford. If such is the case there is certainly room for missionary work here at home. Education, above all things, will prove the solution to the vexed social question. In these turbulent times of labor troubles and strikes the goal seems a long ways off; but there is a gradual evolution, so slow that it is hardly perceptible, toward a better condi tion of affairs.

Terms of peace between the Boers and British were signed, bringing the war to an end. The war lasted 32 months. The terms In brief are as follows: Following is a synopsis of Balfour’s statemint in the House of Commons of the terms of the pom»: The burgher forces lay down their urms and hand overall their rifles, guns and munitions of war in their posses sion or under their control. All prisoners are to be brought back as soon as possible to South Africa, without loss of liberty or property. No action to be taken against pris oners, except where they ure guilty of breaches of the rules of war. Dutch is to be taught in the schools, if dcsirqd by the parents, and used in the courts, If necessary. Rifles are allowed for protection. Military occupation is to be with drawn as soon as possible and self- government substituted. There Is to be no tax on theTransvaal to pafy the cost of the war.

The Kind You Have Always Bought Bears the Signature uC i W al Baking Powder Most healthful leavener in the world. Goes farther THE DOCTORS DISAGREE Mlx»p on Reciprocity and Tariff Re form—The Way to Revise. There la much difference of opinion throughout the country In regard to reciprocity. Some ultra protectionist» declare that reciprocity is a part of the protective scheme. Others of the same cult assert quite as positively that reci procity is the antithesis of protection. The same lack of unity prevails in the ranks of the free traders. The New York Times of Feb. 10 says: “Reciprocity knocks a hole In the wall, throws down the top rails of the fence and undoes the work of the builder. Protection excludes, reciproc ity admits. The two things are anti thetical, opposite, contradictory and quarrelsome. When we take up one, we abandon the other, ex vl termini.” What The Times says may be true of one kind of reciprocity, but it is not true of the kind that has been prac ticed in thia country. Reciprocity has been adopted only when demanded by certain lobbyists. The hole made in the wail has been made at the instiga tion and for the particular benefit of some protected interest. At present the charitable agitation for suffering Culta I s being conducted principally by the sugar trust and the American To bacco company, two organizations not originally incorporated for philanthrop ic purposes. A reduction of the duties on raw sugar and tobacco from Cuba will possibly benefit Cuba. It is not impossible that some slight benefit may accrue to the American consumer, but it is perfectly certain that the sugar trust and the toltacco trust will be the chief beneficiaries. The moral of all this is not that we should withhold aid from Cuba. It is rather that we should withdraw all special privileges that enable favored producers to exact tribute from their consumers. The kind of reciprocity preached by the trusts is not likely to bring abpid tb¿s happy state. It will serve" only to strengthen "some protect-_ ed monopolies at the expense of the weaker protected industries. Ideal rec iprocity might possibly bring about rational modifications of the present tariff, but ideal reciprocity seems to be The Troth About the Tariff. further off than direct tariff legisla Congressman De Armond, in his ad- tion.
