CELIBACY.

The ascctic teachings of the Early Church
were calculated to degrade the idea OF
marriage even, which was considered
rather as a concession to the weakness of
humanity than as condition in itself hon
orable. Abstain if you can, marry If you
must; such was the teaching of Paul on
this subject Marriage was indeed honor
able when it became necessity of the flesh
Just as consorting with prostitutes is now
regarded as at least excusable by those
who advocate its necessity. Later. virgin
itv came to be considered the only chasti
ty, an indispensable condition of purity.
leading dogma of the Church-that of the
immaculate eption''-doubtless had
its origin partly in this idea. No abso-
lutely pure and holy being could be
admitted to have sprung from relation in
its very essence and nature as sensual and
degrading This dogma must also be re-
garded as survival from other systems,
since it is not peculiar to the Christian re-
ligion. Gautama Buddha (thc founder OF
a religion which numbers more followers
than any other system extant) is said IN
the sacred writings of that faith, to have
been born of virgin; and there Is
Chinese legend to the effect that the first
HlOI1tT Oh HldIlkill WAS III IL llhC hoiy SS"
tate. Among these races, as formerly
among the Jews, degrading views of wo-
men have always prevailed. The practice
of celibacy among the clergy was also
founded in the belief itat marriages and
purity were irreconciable and one OF its
enthusiastic advocates of the third century,
ST. Martin of Tours, admitting that mar
riage was ''pardonable, exalted virginity
as .'glorious. But with the decline of as
cetcism. which favored low views OF The
character of women, marriage gradually
came to be regarded as in the highest de-
gree honorable and the later teachings Of
the church are more in harmony with nature.
Celibacy is still enjoined upon the Catho-
lie clergy, it is true; not, however, as
means of self-purity and salvation, but be-
canse it affords immunity from the cares
and distractions of family life which would
interrupt that constant and untiring devo-
ton to the duties of religion which their
church demands. Westminster Rerie'c.

l. To maintain the power and prestige of the
Union against all attempts to subvert oppose its just
authority and to insist that the Government of the
Cnied States shall be controlled by loyal men.
.. TodiscOuntenance and reprobate the reasonable
and revolutionary course of the Democrats in Cong
ress, who threaten to cripple and destroy the func
tions of the Government if constitutionally pre-
vented from enacting their partisan measures into
Law.
3. TO uphold the right of the United States to en-
force its laws wherever they are operate and
to frown down and put down the dangerous her
esy of the States Right secessonists who have al
ready plunged the country into one bloody war
''" WI" "'' nv" attempting " 'ohuoi 'ht 'oN'
ernment of the Union with the same measures
that preceded the rebellion of lS6
4. To insist upon free electons-not only free
from National military interference, which no one
desires. but also free from the interference and vo-
oence of so-caled State militia and the assassins
who with deadly weapons have seized the polls in
many Of the Southern States, driving innocent and
defenceess voters from the ballot-box and making
mockery OF elections, which upon free suffrage
has been made distinct political issue by every
Democrat in the Senate and House voting against a
measure designed TO prevent and suppress it.
8. Touphod the financial credit of the Government
and to assure 10 the people of all sections sound
currency, equiv alent to coin at all times and in all
places and redeemable in coin. And to this end 10
oppose all distractng repudiating and mischievous
efforts against the peace welfare and industrial pros.
perity of the People.
u. In these aims and purposes all citizens of Maine
are invited to unite that the hands of the President
and of the Republican minority in both branches OF
Congress may be strengthened in their efforts up.
