A PoINTLEss OBJECTION.

Some very thin.skinned individuals are
offended because Matthew Arnold came to
the United States with the purpose in
view of turning enough honest pennies to
pay the expenses of his trip. Condemn
him, they cry, "for the purpose of his
visit is mercenary." Indeed And why
should not Mr.. Arpeld lecture in America :?
Certainly he will thus address more of the
people and accomplish more good among
US than if he confines his expressions to
remarks before few learned societies.
The best and bravest of our men of cult
ure have appeared upon the rostrum for the
door money" and it is to their credit that
they did. Our people appreciate what
they pay for, far better than that which is
set before them without fee. The
Christian Leader is one of the squeamlsh
kind that enters objections to Mr.. Arnold
making expenses" To it replies the
New York Poet, with these caustic re-
marks: Even ministers are not above
asking good salary and their doing so is
not held to mar their preaching, and it
should not mar their images. What does
it think of the long and successful mer-
cenary lecturing of its own DIR. Chaplin !?
The fact is that one object of Mr.. Arnold's
visit is to open up such minds as the
Lenders, and stop any improper image
marring there may be going on inside. J"

THE CRY PoR CHANGE.

Mr.. Curtis, in Harper's Weekly, puts the
case with incisive force when he says that
the mere cry for change in administration,
without an intelligent conception of what
the change is to be, is like casting dice.
This is good smile. Parties long in
power may become careless and cor.
rupt The Office holder is sometimes apt
to forget the source of his power, but intel.
ligence has reason for any change of Off
GERS it makes. The independent voter is
very apt to know before he exercises his
right to make change, what the result
will be, in all probability, of his making it..
He did this in New York when party
methods were rebuked and Cleveland cho-
sen. He again manifested his intelligence
when he overthrow the 100, 900 majority
he gave to Cleveland and said to the party
in power, GO / am not your servant" As
the Weekly puts it, to such voters the des-
tiny of the country is in fact confded, and
not to the men "who pride themselves
upon never scratching, nor kicking, nor
boiling, and upon always voting the
straight ticket, whether bearing unworthy
names or nominated by fraud" 1t is be-
cause of the independent voter and his in
telligence and courage that we do not be-
lieve the Democratic cry for change will
have any effect The Independent voter
will still trust the Republican party and
not blindly submit to change simply be-
cause the opposition cry "Turn the ras-
Gals out"

DANCING AND THE CHURCH.

A Presbyterian minister has broken up
the placid surface of religious waters in
San Francisco, and set them seething into
contentious waves by declaring in the
words of the Bible that "there is a time
to dance" He has been taken to task for
his bold position, but maintains his ground
with persistepcy and earnestness that
speaks of sincere conviction. He has the
wisdom to see that in the mere act of
dancing there is no evil, OF necessity, He
but echoed the thought OF the broadest
pulpits when he announced that nothing
but harm has come out of the wholesale
condemnation, by some of the sects, of the
act of dancing. 1t certainly is true that
"the dance has not declined under the
snathemss of the pulpit, Not only ia

fore, but it is freer in character and far
less formal and guarded than in the past.
He admits that he once held to the dog.
matte view that dancing at any time, Of
ary kind, and under any circumstances,
was sin and vicious practice. Study
and observation had led him to change his
views. He believed that correction was
better than denunciation. Whatever i'm.
modesty or evil there is in the modern
dance and its associations, the church
may well bend its energies to cor
rect, for Its long opposition to it in
any form has not served to affect the prac.
tice in the slightest degree. In the proper
place, properly conducted, reasonably in
dulged in, dancing is not harmful on the
contrary, it is beneficial 1t should, under
proper conditions, be no more conducive of
i'll than any other proper physical exercise.
Nor, as a rule, are the associations con.
nected with dancing more inimical to ply.
steal and moral well being than indulgence
in recreations at other social reunions. By
far is dancing by the young, in decorous
manner, under the approval of their elders.
and governed by the laws of gentility and
correct department, preferable to any other
physical exercise in which the sexes may
engage at social reunions. Mr.. Hemphill
is correct in his judgment when he says
that there is nothing in their religion to
prevent Christian people from dancing
nothing inconsistent with the Christian
character, any more than partaking in any
other amusement or recreation-if only
care was taken to avoid the errors and ex-
cesses he had mentioned. Young Christians
who danced in this way should not be
charged with loving pleasure more than
they loved Cod"
