RELIGION AND HONESTY.

Is it not time to preach anew the SER
mon of honesty First, to do justly, as
if honesty was the foundation stone,
then to love mercy, and then to walk
humbly.
There is too much one-sided religion.
We know examples of zeal and untiring
energy, in Christian work, in men who
so neglect their own affairs that they
are always under load of debt, and
give honest unbclievers a very poor
opinion of Christian mans business
habits.
Such things ought not so to be. We
know people who are called lights and
shining lights, who not only profess and
call themselves Christians, but do a
great deal of real work, who are utterly
unmindful of pecuniary obligations. who
'fail' when they can pay no longer, and
yet learn nothing of the value of money
and are just as devout as if they were
not dishonest.
They are unfortunate" true, but for
tune implies chance, and there is nc
chance in living within ones incom,
and paying ones debts. Think of ;
published "Memoir" of so-callet
Christian who, in our opinion, cheate'
trades. people and defrauded creditors
bated no jot of his expenses or charities
No wonder that many honest men ar
not believers. They attend to thei
own affairs and are not always failing.
We want a great many things in thes
days, more faith, more love, more self
denial, more Christian zeal; but 70
symmetry of character we want NOR
downright honesty in men and women.
To do justly, love mercy, and wor
humbly with our od,-God help us.

1t having become apparent to the Mer-
rill-Appleton- Donnelly combination after
careful canvass of the House that that body
is bound to stand firmly by its record on the
Feller amendment they have evidently
abandoned the contest and are preparing to
sible.
Mr.. Merrill, we are informed, stated in the
lobby of the House yesterday that he would
prefer to have the entire supplementary bill
mitted to vote of the people. Mr.. Merrill
has the veto power. He is bigger man than
Pillsbury in this matter, for the bill gives
him sixty days to decide whether he will
accept it's provisions OF not, and if it is I'M
satisfactory to him he can reject it and stand
OH his contract under the law of last winter.
He made that contract knowing the law, and
the State is not repudiating because it does
not give him a supplementary bill to supply
him the capital to execute the contract
The House owes it to itself to re- enact thu
Teller amendment and then let the Senat,
take the responsibility of eau sing the supple
mentary bill to fail.
If the advocates of any measure that viii
affect the interests of the whole State are not
willing to let the people have voice in the
matter there must be some inherent weak
ness in the measure itself.

"GOD SAFE THE CZAR."

At last, we have the news that the Treaty
of Peace has been signed. St. Petersburg is
is ecstacy and the Gear is safe. How is it
with the Sultan? There is no doubt but
that material notifications of the treaty were
made by Russia in favor of Turkey, both as
to territory and indemnity money. One of
the most significant items of the late news
is, that there is no interference with the por-
ton of the Turkish revenue hypothecated by
the foreign creditors. This may somewhat
appease the terrible anxiety of England, but,
as yet, great uncertainty rests upon European
affairs.
It is very difficult to sec how peace can
long be maintained. The present can not
be q permanent settlement of pending ques-
tons, and therefore the pacifcation can not
be lasting. AS an evidence, however,
of the progress of the anti-war
sentiment of nations, is the present in
disposition or hesitancy to engage in war.
Who can doubt but that twenty years ago,
under precisely similar circumstances the
continent of Europe would be in blaze of
war? Whatever may be the causes of the
change, whether growing out Of the expense,
or the more destructive agencies of war, OF
out of an improvement in international NOR
ality, no one could regret the final establish
ment of a judicial tribunal to settle AMIGA
bly, the quarrels of nations. What an i'm
mense saving that would be? Suppose for
example, that nations should disband their
standing armies, and turn into the channels

HiSTY LEGISLATION

The Legislature is crowded with business.
Bills are rushing after each other, like sheep
jumping over fence jostling each other in
the transit, and regardless of the spot of
landing. It is becoming unfortunately the
custom to postpone all or nearly al import
ant legislation to the end of the session. 1t
is il custom that would be more hon
ored in the breach. 1t has
of late been fruitful of much hasty and in
considerate legislation, and the present
seems no exception.
Both Houses should beware. Never
were the people less patient with useless, ex-
pensive, and uncalled for legislation, and
never was there more necessity for wise and
Just discrimination and good judgment.
Emphatically should class and special legis-
lation be avoided in the closing hours of the
session, when ninety-nine cases in hun
dred interested parties are at the bottom of
it, seeking to crafty some selfish scheme OF
to secure some doubtful measure. Every
bill should now bemost carefully scrutinized,
because it will be better that bad laws should
be defeated whatever may betide.

Partially St,'a,sgled.
[Lanesboro Journal.l

The House of Representatives on Tuesday
had the nerve to partially strangle the gigan-
tic text book job, by SO amending it that it
becomes imperative at the end of five years
unless continued bya vote of the people of
the State. Another and better amendment
provides that any county in the State shall
be exempt from the operation Of the law by
a three-fourths majority vote of the people
of that county against the job. While this
effectually squelches the fraud, in one sense,
it'should have been more thoroughly pune
tured. # it is right that the people should
be permitted to vote on job that so vitality
affects their interests, it is certainly right
that a majority vote should determine the
question at issue, and not q three-f fourth ma
jority vote. Let the people be thankful for
small fayors, however.

MERRILL claims that under the supple
mentary bill the State does not furnish him
the capital to execute his contract of last
winter. Why then does he ask any legisla-
ton? The pending bill gives him access to
the treasury to the extent of the school tax,
some 100000. The people are compelled
to buy the books and compelled to pay for
them by taxation. Mr.. Merrill knows that
if this bill becomes law he can turn in
books to the amount of 100000 and re-
ceive the cash at once. If that is not asking
the State to supply the basis of credit and
capital to conduct the business we should
like to know what it would be termed.

Benjamin has been as quiet as his name
sake of Israel. Only an occasional out
break has reminded us that B. F. B. was
still alive. He has been as sullen and as
silent as Achilles in his tent. It remains to
be seen whether the quondam wrathful
Achilles has subsidized into the quiet and
lamblike Benjamin, or whether the country
shall be RECALLED with another epic of unnum-
bered woes.
The occasion has arisen and the Patroclus
of Benjamin, the distinguished Simmons,
lies sprawling on Boston Common, wounded,
bleeding, and dying. Simmons has been re-
moved from the Boston Custom House where
he had fondly dreamed of resting until the
Republican party should be no more. The
President has Bearded Butler in his den and
put Beard in the place of Simmons.
We are not advised of the peculiar

and such variety of colors and odors
as to defy any method of calculation. It
may safely be set down, that Beard don't
belong to the Butler tribe, and if Butler
tamely submits to this outrage, then we shall
begin to think the SURPRISING bravery of the
famous general has oozed out altogether,

The hour draweth nigh when the TWEEN
teth session of the Minnesota Legislature
will be numbered among the things that
were. Never before, at least in the past half
dozen years, were the closing days of a
session confronted with such an array of
business, much of it, too, of the most import
ant character, as this, and the great problem
how to accomplish a material portion of the
work: remains as yet practically unsolyed.
AS the time draws on apace. the press of
work increases, and In pari passu fourishes
also the disposition to talk, and thereby
consume valuable time. The shorter the
time grows, the more should this disposition
to gas be checked if the House does not de-
sire to leave undone large amount of bust
ness now before it.
