M| R CH IR | A warm argument on the question | of retaining the provincial secretary marked the morning session of the Episcopal synod of the Province of | the Northwest. | F. L. Gallagher of Rosalle, is one banker who has been in politics. He does not need the advice given the bankers hy Joseph French Johnson of New York to | ket Into the legisiature and congress, and There are many in the province | who believed that this officer could | be dispensed with, thus saving the $3,000 salary and the $1,000 re- quired for his expenses | Several of the bishops spoke and | all of them favored keeping both the | office and the man now filling it, Rev. Dr. C. C. Rollit | Bishop Tyler of North Dakota | struck a humorous note in the dis- | cussion when he said: “I was so much bothered by a flood of | letters from traveling sccretaries when | 1 first became bishop of North Dakota that I feit like asking the board to ap- point & misslonary to take of eorrespondence and T wanted to put half | of ‘em right out of their jobs. Dr. Rol- M, however, has left me beautifully | wlone. I hope that we will vote uproar- ously, simultaneously, unanimously and tumultously to retaln the office and to retaln Dr. Rolllt in it. . More Than Money. Wishop Beecher made a strong speech In favor of it and the venerable Bishop Brewer of Montana, who was presiding @t the meeting, took the fioor and pointed out that the dioceses in Which the secre- tary worked during the last year had con- tributed §,00 more than they dld the year before, thus proving the secretary's efficlency from the financial standpoint @ishop Beecher declared there was & much deeper cause for retaining Dr. Rol- Nt than mere money. “The spiritual strengthening of the people and the giv- Ing of a bronder vision of the great church to those In remote districts are alone worth retaining this office and officer,” sald the bishop. The synod voted unanimously against memorializing the general convention of the church to have the office abolished. The Brotherhood of St. Andrew was addressed by F. H. Spencer at 2 p. m. and at 2:3 p. m. a conference on soclal service, Bishop Beccher presiding; was held in Gardner Memorial huil, This evening at 8 o'clock a mass meet- Jng will be held in Gardner Memorial hall, at which G, W.

Smith sald on Smith's bank for $4.75, signed Smith's name to it, and the triumphant voung agent had the pleasure of handing this through the teller's window at Emith's bank and making Smith cash it with als own hands.
