The Christian Worker.

In Matthew XIV, 1896, we find a
record of true work, and its rich re-
ward. Not for what we should call
"signal services or heroic deeds is the
blessing given, but for small things
for the everyday unnoticed things
which human annals make no note of,
but which are truly great and imper-
ishable, because they are done unto
the King. A hungry one was fed
drink-it may he of cold WATERWAYS
lifted to some parched lip; weary
stranger was offered resting place a
garment was made for some half-clad
child an hour was spent by a suffer
er's bedside; a visit was paid to
prisoners cell and the worker return
ed home, saddened it may be by the
thought of how little had that day been
done for a Master SO adored but His
accompanying love had noticed and
accepted all. True, the hungry, and
the thirsty, and the naked had not
been lifted above further need; the
stranger had not been made a citizen
the sick had not been healed the pris-
on bars had not been flung back. For
this the worker had had no power; but
Gods eternal love had resulted in a
loving life of daily intercourse with
Him, and, like track of moonlight
glory on the miduipht sea which
stretches from the sandy shore across
the broad eXpanse of waters, till it
reaches that effulgent point whence
all its light and beauty came, so the
workers life reflected His life, and
each wave of trouble brought the ser
want nearer unto Him, into whose pres
ence there is Guinness of JOY for ever
more In the Great Harvest Field.

makes the summer months so fatal to
us. If the mouth be dry and parched,
that is no reason why the healthy ac-
ton of the stomach should be checked
by a deluge of artic cold water, any
more than it is a sensible act to sit in
a draught that your head may be cool,
when you are certain that your throat
will have to pay heavily for the tenn
poIary relief to your head. Treat all
your organs in a natural manner and
don't distress them with too much
work. Catch every breath of fresh air
you can and don't foolishly work your
self into passion railing against the
cruelties of a climate which you have
no power to change or avoid"

A POLITICAL HERESY,

Editor REGISTER.
/ see by occasional notices in the pa
pers, and by certain absurd state
ments, which lately fell in my way,
and which he is said to have present
ed to the tariff commission, that Prof.
Garfield, of our State university, is
making himself somewhat conspicu-
Gus as an advocate of British free trade.
1t may be all right for the professor to
seek notoriety in this way if it pleases
him to do SO, but it is sincerely to be
hoped he does not attempt to poison
the minds of his pupils with that mis-
chievous heresy. So long as his opin-
ions on this subject are confined to
speculations in his study, or find ex-
preston only in harmless letters to
the papers, or in propounding start
ling queries to the tariff commission,
he has perfect right to their enjoy
ment. But he has no right as pub
lie teacher in our highest institution of
learning, employed and paid by the
State. to.attempt to prapogate in the
minds of the youth committed to his
charge a doctrine SO widely at vari-
ance with the views of a majority of
his employees, and SO utterly subver-
sive of the best interests of the State
and Nation. The professor himself
and his opinions immured in college
walls, can do but little harm, and may
be tolerated, but the young men and
women who assemble in his class
rooms from year to year, go forth to
engage in the practical affairs of life.
They are soon to become the leading
citizens of the State-to mould its
views and shapa.its policy. That these
should be indoctrinated during their
college life with the sbsurd and per-
nicious fallacy of free trade, is a thing
not to be tolerated, and | repeat it is to
be hoped Prof. Garfield does not SO
far abuse the trust reposed in him as
to make his position the means OF
propagating doctrine so repugnant
to the views of a great majority of the
American people, and so pernicious in
their effjrt on every interest that
American craftsmanship ought to pro-
tect and cherish. AMERICUs.

THANKSGIVING Services.

Thanksgiving services were held in
this city yesterday at the Baptist
church and were well attended.
The discourse was delivered by Rev.
f. S. Miller, who chose his text from
lst Thes. 5:lS.-rIn everything give
thanks for it is the will Of God in
Christ Jesus concerning you,"-and
spoke substantially as follows: The
season has returned in which by a
we'll established national custom, We
are reminded of our relation to Divine
Providence. The fitness of our observ-
ing day of national thanksgiving
to Almighty God for the bounties of
his Providence, is too apparent and too
generally conceded to require ny ar
gument.
The only difference of opinion prob
ably would be with reference to the
grounds for thanksgiving.
The thought in the text is that, to
him who reposes trust in the GJd of
Providence, everything received at
his hand affords good reason for
thanksgiving. To maintain and
manifest such spirit is very high
christian attainment. We incline
rather TO murmur at what is unpleas-
ant, and receive good things as if they
were due to us.

DEMOCRATIC hair pulling will COM
mence in earnest with the organiza-
ton of the new Congress. The oppos-
ing camps of the Democracy are head
ed by Randall and Carlisle. Sugar
coat it as he will, Randall is Pro-
tectionist, and intimates that Demo-
Gratis who would commit the party to
any other policy are simpletons
of the first water. Carlisle is a free
trader, and the majority of the Democ-
racy are undoubtedly with him. The
depression i'm the iron and steel trade,
owing to the proposed reduction in the
tariff, with mills and furnaces closing
everywhere, and thousands of men out
of employment, promises to render the
contest more close and bitter, and in
tensifies the general uupleasantnesso of
the Democratic situation. 1t is cry
ing pity that some '.pull-back" always
catches on to the Democratic party
just as it gets fairly on the way to sue
cess.

RAILROAD LEGISLATION.

So much has been said every year
concerning railway legislation and so
little done, that the people have grown
skeptical of the promises of their legis-
tors and begin to doubt if anything Sc
rious or practical is intended or can ever
be accomplished. This fall however, a
few men of some prominence have ia
ken hold of the matter and their ag-
itatiou of ii seems likely to be of some
avail. We are in receipt of circular
letter, signed by John Johntz, j. II,
Burton, c. p. Hoffman, A. p. Collins
and Geo. w. Martin, all members
elect to the legislature, calling upon
all those interested in having the rail-
roads put under proper legal restraint,
to meet at Abilene on the 18th day of
December, for the purpose of devising
means to accomplish the best legisla-
ton on the question. This looks bus
iness-like, and is, We think, a step in
the right direction. The session of the
legislature is so short, and so much
business is to come before it, that if
anything is to be accomplished in this
line there must be a oefinite plan laid
out beforehand, and agreed upon by
advocates of the measure.
We are in hearty sympathy with
this movement, and earnestly hope to
see some practical and effective legis-
lation enacted this winter. While We
by no means join in the senseless cry
raised against railroads in general by
the professcd anti-monopoly organs,
while on the contrary we hold that it
is to the railroads more than to any
other force that our State owes its de-
velopment, wealth and advancement,
we can yet see clearly enough that
there is great danger of these corpora
tons arrogating to themselves rights
to which they, as common carriers,
can lay no claim. They need OCCASION
ally to be reminded that they owe
their existence to the people, and are
servants, not masters. The lesson needs
not be a severe one, however. There
Is no call for legislation that shall in
any way restrict their traffic or inn
peril their existence. No one would
argue that it would be a wise course
to enact such laws as would render it
impossible for companies to operate
their lines with profit. But unjust
discrimination in favor of or against
localities and individuals, passenger
and freight rates that can be proven
to be eXorbitant, and interference in
local and State elections, are matters
that call for legislative action, and the
men who are honestly trying to effect
that action should receive the support
and encouragement of all good citizens.
