Government-What is It?

There are many persons who write upon
this subject but scarcely any that write cor>
rectiy, they talk more about the form, name.
or outward appearance of tho thing than the
thing itself Government is a word derived
from the word guide, to direct or lead in the
right way. 1t is rule of action or nouactiop.
1t tells You what You may or shall do, and
what you may not or shall not do God saws
this day, as he said of old, ''that my people
do not consider, they do not know me-" If
the people would only consider and enquire of
God, and learn his counsels and his statutes
and walk therein, we shall have peace, we
will never have it until they do. The people
nave all gone astray, some are for Greeley,
some for Grant, few for O'Conor. but alas
alas !! how few for God and Christ, to direct.
to govern, to rule over them. They are like
the Jews of old, they will have ruler like
the other nations, they will choose Barrabbas.
Now | warn you all in the name of the living
God, whose servant l am, that the time is
short, that you work while it is day, that the
night cometh in which no man can work
Tho cry is, let us have peace But thus
sayeth the Lord there shall be no peace
until all, from, the least unto the greatest
rulers aud people, Shall come and enquire of
me and learn my counsels and statutes, and
Keep them, and confess that am Lord of
Lords, and King of Kings

LESLIE CoMBs-A KENTUCKY ANEoDoTE.-
General Leslie Combs made speech ut the
raising Of Clay pole in Paris, KY, during
the campaign of 1914. He was SO confident
Oh this occasion that he promised TO climb
that tall pole backward, from tile staunch-
ions at the bottom 10 the raccoon-cage on
top, If the Kentucky statesman should be de-
feated by the unknown candidate from Ten.
nessee. 1t was rash promise, and the memo
ry of his bearers afterwards exhibited 4 very
annoying tenacity. In his stump exercises uf-
ter that the enthusiastic aud sanguine General
could never indulge in eytIrvagaut prom.
ises or rose-colored predictions without Ell.
countering flashes OF country wit that put
him OH the defensive. He never got done
explaining that he had failed to climb that
pole according to promise only because it had
been cut down and removed before he could
get there. Recently it transpired that two
sections of that same blue-ash pole were still
standing as gate-poSts in Paris, and in order
to stop the CLASH of the country editors round
about, the General consented to appear on
Thanksgiving Day and perform the long
deferred feat of climbing. Sure enough, when
the appointed day came he arrived on the
cars, was welcomed to sumptuous break
fast, and, fortified by some old Bourbon
made during the campaign of 1874. he made
good his promise, and made besides happy
speech from the top Of the gate-post. His
hair was as black, his eye as bright, and bis
step as brisk when he did this as when he
made the speech that led to it in 1874 He
was captain In the war of 1872, and is still
30 youthful in spirit and appearance rs to be
regarded with sort Of superstition by the
people Of Kentucky. As Time writes no
wrinkles on his genial face they begin to is,,s.
