TO BRING OFT THE VOTE.

In Cincinnati it is proposed to make half
holiday of the afternoon of election day. If
this should be done the result will be full
vote and the triumph of the best elements of
the city, as represented by the Republican
party. In Chicago public interest became SO
great in a city election, where the issue
involved was the overthrow of corrupt DEM
ocratic whisky ring, that nearly all the bust
ness houses and factories closed for the day.
The result was majority against the ring of
more than fourteen thousand. The worst ell
ements of this city, the saloons and their hang
ers-on and dependents have an enforced holt
day. The law closes them up, and so law and
interest unite to put those elements at work
at the polls throughout the day. Shall not
the conservative, business, tax-paying classes
of the city determine to do something toward
the work of overthrowing the attempted DOM
ination of the whisky ring in State and local
affairs2 At least, cannot those interested see
to it that every vote they can control is polled
on election day?
There are from one thousand to fifteen hun
dred travelling men in Indiana There are
several hundreds of them residents of Marion
county. They usually go out on their COM
mercial tours on Monday morning. Let not
one of them do so next week. Let not one of
them fail to stay over at their respective
places of residence, and vote on Tuesday be-
fore they start on their trips. This is mat
ter of more Importance than may be supposed.
Not single vote should be lost. The State
of Indiana holds an election now only once in
two years. Every voter in the State cannot
afford to fail to take the time necessary to
cast his ballot. That is the duty of good cit
izenship, and upon good citizenship every in
terest of the State and of society depends.

saints will be caught up to meet the Lord. These
passages indicate that the home of the righteous

be .the prince of the power of air" The abode
of ungodly souls is mentioned as below. When
our present system of astronomy was published,
these views were cast aside as idle dreams, 1t is
now known, however, that around each planet is
an atmosphere, and beyond that Is ether. There
has been some speculation concerning this ether,
and more than one scientist has reached the con-
clusion that if there is life there-as is probable
it must be pure spirit We may not affirm it,
but it will be harmless speculation for us to
indulge. that the inter-stellar ether is the home
of the good, while the wicked, because of their
grosser nature, are confined nearer the earth.

The subject of Rev. E. J. Gantz's sermon at

Baptism" and the text Of his discourse was.
go, We, therefore, and teach all nations, bap-
tizing them in the name of the Father, and of
the Son, and of the Holy Ghost-teaching them
to observe all things whatsoever / have COM
manded you; and 10, I am with you always, even
unto the end of the world" st. Matthew xviii
10, 20. The injunction to teach all nations
to become disciples of Christ. Rev. Gantz said
applied to all Christians as well as to pastors.
In speaking of baptism. he said it was an essen
tial ordinance in all evangelical churches. The
definition of the word Baptism" which
is of Greek origin. is ito dip in
water" This is the definition given in Web
ster's Dictionary; and it has stood unquestioned
by the scholars of the country for more than
twenty years Notwithstanding the fact that it
is impossible for any word to express more than
one meaning, the Christian world draws from it
the word mean 10 immerse,D Ito pour and ito
sprinkle" There is great deal of figurative
language in the New Testament which is used
simply because of the resemblance of the natural
to the supernatural. Originally the word spirit
meant prayer. The word 'lmagination"i is made
to take in everything now, but in the original
meaning it simply expressed form" or
