planations from his friends about his peculiar
ideas about church membership and lodge affilia-
tion. It would appear that he has some far-fetch-
ed opinion that to attach himself to one particular
church would in some mysterious way make him
appear antagonistic to other churches. We can-
not understand the peculiar workings of Mr.
Coolidge’s mind regarding his church and lodge
positions, but we will say we haven’t any patience
with any such reasoning. Not that we think Mr.
Coolidge cares what we think, but when a man
says he believes in the Christian religion we think
he should support some branch of the Christian
church with his membership.
Mr. McAdoo is a vestryman in the Protestant
Episcopal church.
And He sure does! He’s just like Pa—
He always comes to time,
And never gives a penny when
I need a silver dime!
God likes my Pa a lot, I know,
And I like God, you bet!
When I thinks of ’em—say .don’t you tell—
Sometimes my eyes gits wet!

The coal strike is on. Both sides have been
looking for it and neither tried to prevent it.
Neither side to the strike will lose anything in the
long run. They can’t lose the good will of the con-
sumer for neither of them have it to lose. They
cannot lose financially because an increase in
wages will result in the customer paying it. There
are more coal miners than are necessary to supply
the public and there are so many idle days any-
way and the miner would just as soon take them
all at one time. The public is the only party that
is interested in the strike. In a few days the pub-
lic will bring pressure to bear on the government,
the government will bring pressure on the mine
owners, they will grant the raise of 10 per cent,
the raise will be passed on to the consumer the

credit for settling another strike. And Jones

alone. But it seems to be certain that the Bishop
brought the monstrous charge that the Rev. Mc-
Geehee was receiving money for his activity in
the interest of the klan.
Did anyone ever hear of such a ridiculous
charge? The idea that any of these preachers
who go about the country lecturing on the klan
were receiving filthy lucre. Perish the thought.
But the Rev. McGeehee is reported to have
told the Bishop that his statement was a “lie” and
the Bishop is said to have slapped the Rev. Mc-
Geehee’s jaws, and that the said Rev. McGeehee
then and there told the said Bishop that the “klan
had his number.”
It was certainly some mix up. But what we
started to say was that in all of the six published
reports that we have seen of the affair, the Rev.
McGeehee was referred to as the “rector.” As a
Methodist we wish to protest, but if we were an
Episcopalian we would simply raise thunder.

Dear Sir: Will you kindly publish what church
both President Coolidge and McAdoo belong to.
Thanking you. A READER
In answer to the above we would say that
President Coolidge does not belong to any church.
He has been a life-long attendant of the Congre-
gationalist Church and supports it financially.
His wife is a Congregationalist. Mr. Coolidge not
only does not belong to any church but is not a
winter of any secret order. We have seen ex-

And it is also true that some of the severest
critics of the court house are men who use all kinds
of reasons and devices to keep from jury service.
But we really believe that any intelligent man
should be ashamed of himself to claim that he
could take a solemn oath to administer justice and
be so prejudiced that he would have to violate
his oath. Such a man lacks that much of be-

Austin, Sept. 5.—Lon A. Smith,
State Comptroller, will spend some
time within the near future in inves-
tigating the operation of the Dean
Liquor law in Texas’ largest cities.
Under the new appropriation by the
recent legislature the Comptroller |
now has a fund which he can use to I

and druggists have been cancelled,
because of misuse of their privileges
Comptroller Smith has assured fed-

We have seen six or eight differently written
press reports of a certain misunderstanding be-
tween Bishop McMurray of the Southern Metho-
dist church and Rev. McGeehee, pastor of a Metho-
dist church in St. Louis. It seems the Rev. Mc-
Geehee had announced that he was going to preach
a sermon in his church advocating the Ku Klux
Klan. He had been doing some speaking and or-
ganizing for the klan and things were going so
smoothly for the Rev. McGeehee, that he had
determined to bring the message of Americanism
and all the other virtues to his own congregation.
But there was where the Bishop came in. He
was so old fashioned and benighted and Catholic
and Jewish in his belief that he told the Reverend
with the Scotch-Irish name, that he couldn’t
preach such doctrines in the Southern Methodist
church. The advocate of the bed-sheet as the
remedy for all our moral and immoral troubles
objected to the Bishop breaking in on his right
to preach what he wanted to in his own church.
And so he hies himself to the Bishopric. It’s not

District Judge P. O. Beard in talking to pros-
pective members of the petit jury the other day,
expressed himself about the man who, being sum-
moned for jury service, is ever ready to disqualify
himself by claiming he has formed an opinion
about the guilt or innocence of the man to m
be tried.
Judge Beard very properly took the position
that any fair minded, honest man could not thusE
truly disqualify himself. We heartily agree with P
him. In fact we think any man belittles himself I
who confesses that he is so prejudiced that he
could not sit in a jury box and do justice ac-
cording to the evidence given. It is confessing
a narrowness that no good citizen should be will-
ing to acknowledge.
We are inclined to think there are very few
intelligent men who could not divest themselves -
of any preconceived opinions if it were not for E-
the desire to escape jury service. If a juror F*
was paid fifty dollars per day, instead of two
dollars, the preconceived opinions would dwindle
