The Nrth Americon .Reuiew for January
opens with symposium in which three OF
the most prominent advocates in this country
OF the "Reyision Of Church Creeds," name
ly Rev DIR. Newman Smyth, Rev. Henry
Ward Beecber and Rev. DIR. Lyman Abbott,
set forth the grounds upon which such reyis.
ion is deemed necessary as a defense Of re-
vealed religion against the encroachments of
skepticism, and as an adjustment of the re-
lations between faith and science. Prof
Isaac l.. Rice gives a Definition of Liber-
ty," deduced from profoundly philosophic-
al study Of the phases Of political evolution,
from the earliest ADglo-SaXon times 10 the
present day. American English" by Gil.
bert NJ. Tucker, is a spirited defense of our
cis-Atlantic fashion Of English speech against
the aspersions of sundry British critics. The
Rev. DR.. II. w. Thomas writes an article
that can hardly fail to strike a sympathetic
chord in many a mind, on 'sThe Responsible
ties OF Progressive Thinkers" "Bigotry in
the Medical Profession" by DR.. David Hunt
is protest. from the pen OF respected
member Of the medical profession against
the first commandment of medical etchics,
which forbids association with any but reg

RAILWAY GRAFT LANDS.

Secretary Teller decides that lands within
the limits of grants TO railway companies, to
which presumption or homestead claims ca
pable of being forfeited had attached at the
time the grant took effect are excluded from
the railroad grant. and upon the abandon
ment of such claims, The lands do not inure
TO the company but are restored to the public
domain. He also decides that when n per-
son, having filing in law upon land under
laid with coal contracts with third party
TO occupy and work such land, he must be
considered as having sold the same and can
not secure the patent. He decides further
that an erroneous entry in the registers

TIE ABILENE CONVENTION.

The proceedings of the Abilene conyen-
ton called TO consider railway legislation
are not published, from the fact that moth
ing OF importance was encompassed. There
were twenty-ore representatives and two
senators present. All seemed very earnest
in their desires to do something, but two
days was found too little time in which to
even sift the views OF those present. The
Ware bill, OF which we spoke last week,
was gone over section by section and many
amendments suggested. A committee OF
nineteen were appointed to take the whole
matter in band and an adjourned meeting
designated for January 9Th. at Topeka.

HIGH ENOUGH.

just now there is quite noise raised fa-
yoring an increase OF the Governors salary.
IT 10 said to be niggardly, inadequate and all
that. Three thousand collars per annum
with telegraphic, Office, clerical and travel
ing expenses thrown in is enough pay for
any man who may be elected TO the honor.
We should not object to the raising OF the
amount paid the district and supreme judg-
es of the State, for several reasons, but the
Governor and other state officers receive
very fair paw.

CONGRESSIONAL APPORTIONMENT.

The Junction City Union says: 1.-THE di.
vision of the State for congressional pur-
poses is purely an arbitrary matter. Local
and personal selfshness is the only thing that
viii! prevail" 1t then proceeds to make a
division of the State upon this theory, and
achieves eminent success. The apportion-
ment ii proposes is infinitely worse than that
of the Wichita EAGLE, which was bad
enough. Geographically, politically, COM
mercialiy and personally the Unaoa s
scheme illustrates personal selfisbness that
is monumental, and a disregard okall the
material and political interests of the State
that is equally Recommendation

While President Herman was here last
Saturday he made the purchase of the va
cant block, owned by John W. Gilmore, and
used for base ball ground for some years
past, for the site of the depot Of the ST.

pot will be in the fourth block north on
Main street, from Central avenue, and is just
the place for the depot and switch yards.
The purchase price finally agreed on was

We maintain that were the impious lnger-
soil TO deliver his lectures Sunday after
Sunday, as 90 the Christian ministers. he
could not hold his audiences after once or
twice hearing. There are no crumbs OF COM
fort for his hearers, only cold, relentless sar-
easm and wit standing alone, while the plain
simple story Of the lowly Nazarene preached
by he minister Of God, hath power to hold
together the masses now, as in the past, and
win do in the ages TO come. Should the
minister retire and our churches be opened
to tie preaching Of Ingersollism, our coun-
try would go to the devil ia half a century.
