Henry Georges Theory.


Boston courier.
In these days when communistic theories are
heard on every SIDE and shallow babbler like
Henry George succeeds in finding people
of apparent intelligence who regard his illogical
and wordy fulminations as of real Importance it
is worth while to give as wide diffusion as posi-
BILE to so strong words as the following passage
from an article by the Hon. Auberon Herbert,
an Engishman who writes with unusual vigor
and inesiveness:
Mr.. George claims that the lands should be
taken forcibly and without compensation, be-
cause all men have right in it. A right is to
me personally the most sacred thing that exists,
that which binds us in all our relations to each
other, and must be absolutely respected. But
what kind of a thing is this which Henry George
christens rights A right, from its supreme
importance, must at least be clearly defined. 1t
cannot take a score of different shapes, while
nobody, not even Mr.. George himself, can tell
US which is the true one. If all Englishmen
have right to the 38, 600, 900 acres of England.

Christianity and Mohammedanism.


To the Editor of the indianapolis Journal;
In Dr. Marines sermon, published in yester-
days Journal, this language is found:
s'Mohammedanism gave Christianity a start of
six centuries and has eutstripped the religion of
Christ in the race for the supremacy of numbers
Twelve centuries secured more devotees to Mo
manned than eighteen centuries have won to
Christ"
l wish the Doctor had given us the authority
he obtained this information FROM I call in
question the correctness of the statement above
quoted. In the Methodist Quarterly Review
for January 1885, page 1884, the editor heads an
article 1.-THE Creeds of the World" In the foot
notes we told that the authorities from which
he takes his numbers are e. Benin, r. Wagner
and Professor Schem. In the article we find the
Mohammedan population of Asia given at o.
600, 900; Africa, 1000, 900; Europe, $3.50 600;
total Mohammedan population of the world

world is given at Protestant, Ill, 200 600; Roman

grass landl Since yesterday some hundreds of
persons were born in England Have my rights
contracted since their birthl Have I lost so
many fractions Of my acres since these newcom-
ers arrive, and gained so many more since others
gave up their share in this world by going out of
it, Clearly, if nature has given me this right,
she will necessarily answer these questions and
solve my difficulties. Am to believe that she
confers rights which cannot be stated in precise
terms, which vary according to the place in
which man is born, which vary according to
population, which admit of q crowd of different
schemes being grated on them without power

The appointment of Mr.. A. NJ Kelley, of this
city, as United States Minister to Rome, has
been used by some of the few of his enemies
here as an occasion for reviving speech made
by him on jan IL, 1871. A mass meeting was
held in st. Peters Cathedral on that day to pro-
test against the action of King Victor Emmanuel
in foreibly occupying Rome. Mr.. Kelley, on that
occasion, was made chairman of the committee
on resolutions, and presented a num-
Der of resolutions to the meeting
which were adopted. These declared
that 1.-THE Catholics of this diocese. have
witnessed with the profoundest concern the
cruel and causeless invasion of the Papal States
by neighboring sovereign and the sacrlegious
violence with which the Holy Father has been
driven from his home and bereft Of his lawful
authority Mr.. Kelley made a speech support
ing these resolutions, in which he referred to
Victor Emmanuel in severe terms, saying the
cause that triunphed when King Victor En-
manuel crossed the Roman frontier was the
cause OF the Socialists and infdels of Geneva
no more, no less. The local papers at the time
reported these resolutions and Mr.. Kelley 8

others they got me interested in the movement
and now will show you how that led to the

the exercises of the convention, sim ply doing
my share with all the rest I remember a GER
tain afternoon of the convention we'll. The sub
ject under discussion was, How to Reach the
Masses Having been introduced to Mr.. Moody
that day, he unconsciously gave me a practical
illustration of how to reach the masses Sitting
near me he whispered to to meet him on a
street corner that evening. Wondering what he
desired l did SO. and he then told me he wanted
to hold an experimental outdoor meeting with
my assistance. From neghboring store he

were John Carothers, of New Castle; Rev Mr.

years He then asked me to enter into the
evangelistic work with him at Chicago de-

seauently entered the field with him. Since
then yen know what our meetings have done
We have traversed the world. Several times
we have been to Great Britain, and also to
France, Germany, Switzerland and the United

A Braying Donkey for Governor.

Democrat. in the Evening Minute.
There have been rumors that Governor Gray
had aspirations for the United States Senate,
and that General Manson was thinking of re-
signing the lieutenant governorship to accept o
federal position. In the name and in behalf of
long suffering public, let me beg of these gen
tlemen to subserve their ambitions and private
interests to the good of this fair State, for it is
impossible to conceive of worse calamity than
that the way should be cleared for Green
Smith to step into the gubernatorial chair.
Fancy such a braying donkey in the Governors
chair. From this may heaven save us.

showing of the results of self government in a
community of over 900 young men. The dean
also states that the number Of suspensions was
larger than in any recent year. On the general
subject OF college penalties he says land this is,
believe, statement of the real difference be-
tween the two methods contrasted by DIR. Nc
GOSH: "The student has been relieved from the
observance of numerous minute regulations,
guarded by artificial penalties, because it is as
sunled that his conscience. and Judgment,
and self-respect are sufficiently developed
to be fifty charged with the control OF his be-
havior; he ought not to escape the responsibility
which belongs to freedom Of action
IL is truth, often forgotten, that the life
which is lived in public, and which can be
reached by college discipline, is least potent for
good or ILL young man who falls into vice at
college is tempted by books, companions and
other influences exerted at such times and places
that effective discipline is impossible, and this is
as true of colleges which, like Princeton, assume
the position of parent to its students as of those
like Harvard, which rely upon broader, but
equally effective methods. No set of men
can guard several hundred youths as
they can be guarded in their homes
and to assume to do so is misleading. A
young mans strongest protection at college
can never be the oversight of his instructors; he
must be kept upright and earnest, not by law, or
even by the personal influence of college presi-
dent valuable as that may be, out by the
strength of character which has already been
achieved in his home life, and by the knowledge
that parents or friends who helped him to form
his character waiting to him prove
worthy of their faith
If with this safeguard the student enters a
community in which maniness and industry are
inculcated by precept and by example. not by
the numberless police regulations of college
code community in which students well
coined not as boys to be tended and watched in
conduct and work, hut as men, responsible to the
civil law, to the law of gentlemanly conduct and
to the unwrtten law that eompels every honora-

To the Editor of the Indi annapolis Journal:
The publication of President Ingals's address
at the late railroad meeting in Chicago makes it
fair subject for open comment The distin-
guished gentleman presented in emphatic Ian
guage the necessity for devising means whereby
roads could maintain paying rates, and strongly
advocated a pool of the roads west of the trunk
line termini as a method Of accomplishing the
purpose. The remarks made an impression on
the meeting, and have been generally accepted
by the public as step in advance.
Lest the uninitiated, however should suppose
that railroad millennium is now at hand, lei me
say that for years there has been scarcely a
meeting of prominence where the need of main
tanning rates has not been dwelt upon more or
less urgently, and, it may be added, not unusu-
ally the sermons delivered have been felt to be,
like some ministerial ones, based on the rule of
'precept" rather than of example"
II goes with the saying that every railroad
man would like to see good rates. provided he
could get satisfactory share of business. The
question is as to the methods. Do pools effect
