I'm the Balance.

The great Home Rule measure was
introduced into Parliament last week
with a great flourish and pre- arranged
demonstration in GlaGstone's favor
His speech was at first spoken Of as the
greatest effort of lis life and the cas-
ual reader was led to believe that Ire
land bad assurance in advances Of
Home Rule.
1t is now plainly demonstrated that
defeat is staring Gladstone in the face,
the dissenslons in the Ministry meant
all that it seemed to mean and despite
the money and argument sent over
from this side, the Liberals will be de-
feated and Home Rule in Ireland be IN
definitely deferred.
The bill is tumble Of lmpracticabie
theories, based upon no known system,
and that have no parallel in any civil
lied government on the face of the
earth. Instead Of being proof of Glad
stones wonderful craftsmanship, the
bill is proof of his utter inability to
measure the extent of the issue raised
by the question of Home Rule in Ire
land. Home Rule is not for Ireland

The Strikes.

The railroad strikes are going on IN
a desultory sort of way on the Gould
roads in the Southwest.
The roads however are moving more
trains daily than they did one year ago,
which does not look as though the
strikes were very effective except as
AGAINST the strikers. There are too

for work, and who are not members OF

Probation After Death.

DR.. James Freeman Clark. in Recent Sermon
There is one very important passage in the
New Testament, where Jesus lays down hope
that the heather who have not known Him will
be saved. 1t is a curious fact that those partic-
pating in the recent discussion have omitted
this To be on the safe side, will say they sell
dom have referred to it AS matter of fact,
have never known it to be referred to. The pas
sage is that describing the day of judgement in
Matthew XIV, where the Son of Man is referred
to as sitting on the throne judging nations be-
fore Him. The word nation" is the same word
translated "gentiles" in ninety-two places in
the New Testament. Therefore. in this
description Jesus is evidently speaking of the
nations. including heather nations, as being
gathered before Him. He puts some on His right
hand some on His left. he sends some into
spiritual life, others into spiritual suffering. In
each case the test is, have they done good TO
their fellow-men3 IL they have they have done
1t to Him. They are represented as having no
consciousness of having done anything for Christ
himself. This again shows that those who are
not included were just those who are referred to-
And He tells them that they were His disciples
and followers when they were doing good to His
brethren. When, therefore. New England di-
vines taught that those who did not consciously
profess Christ could not be saved, were they
never so diligent to conform their lives accord
ing to the light of nature, they certainly seem
to have been contradictiag Christs teaching"
