Armenia, where famine is now rag.
ing-there is always famine in some part
OF the East-is the original seat of one
OF the Oldest civilizations. 1t has had
different boundaries in different cen
turtles, but its present area is estimated
at $4,000 square miles, and its popula-
ton at 100000. Although long sub
lect to the despotism of the Turks and
Persians, the Almenians have preserved
their nationality, both physically and
morally; their religion, and, despite the
loss Of most of their ancient culture, a
higher civilization than that of their
conquerors. Christianity appears to
have been introduced into that country
as early as the second century. The
form of theology called mechanism
ascribes only one nature TO Jesus, and
holds that the Spirit comes from the
Father alone. Concerning what is
dnown as the seven saeraments, they
believe that a person at baptism must be
sprinkled three times, and also dipped
three times; that confirmation must be
united to baptism; that the Lords Sup
per must be commemorated with pure
wine and leavGned bread, and that ex-
treme junction. should be given to eccle-
siastics only, and Immediately after in
stead of preceding death. They believe
In the worship OF saints, but not in pur-
gatory; they excel the Greek church in
the number of their fasts, but have fewer
religious festivals. Service is usually
held in Turkey at night; mass is cele-
DRAFTED in the old Armenian language,
though the preaching is done in the new.

Catholics, lives at Etahmiadzin, 8

In reference to our custom laws a
policy should be pursued which will
bring revenues to the treasury, and will
enable the labor and capital employed in
our great industries to compete fairly in
our own markets with the labor and capi
tai OF foreign producers. We Iegislate fol
the people Of the United States, and not
for the whole world, and it is our glory
that the American laborer is more in
tehgent and better paid than his foreign
competitor. Our country cannot be in
dependent unless its people with their
abundant natural resources possess the
requisite skill at any time TO clothe. arm
and equip themselves for war, and in
time OF peace to produce all the neces-
ssry implements of labor. It was the
manifest intention of the founders of the
government to provide for the com mon
defense. not by standing armies alone,
put by raising among the people greater
army OF artisans whose intelligence and
sklllshould powerfully contribute 30 the
safety and glory of the nation.
