LOOKING FOR THE MILLENNIUM.- There
was large attendance of "Millerites" or
PRO. Millenarians" at The "Bibe and Proph.
etc Conference" which was held in Farm
we'll Hall, Chicago, Tuesday. The first hour
was devoted to devotional exercises, after
which The Rev. DR.. Goodwin read q paper
on The Personal, Literal and Visible Com
ing of Christ" He argued that the early
church held emphatically to the belief that
the Lord was to come in his own person,
but modern editors and preachers had re-
fined away the doctrine and had improved
upon, as they thought, the historic faith.
Few young ministers had the old belief on
this point. If the Bible was to be believed
the hope of the early Christians that thew
and their descendants would see the Lord
face to face would be realized. He de.
nounced the notionalistic theories that the
second advent of the Messiah had already
been accomplished in the destruction Of
Jerusalem, or meant that by tbs death of
the Redeemer. The paper lasted one hour.
Inc chairman announced that there would
De nc opportunity for controversy or verbal

o. OF Warrenton, Mo-, read PAPER entitled
uChrlst's Coming Before the Millennium
Inc conference is composed of Milerites or
Pre- Milenarians. They say thew divide
the Biblical scholarship of the country with
the Post Millenarians. The Post. Millena-
rIans maintain that the presently constituted
agencies of evangelism are all sufficient to
bring reclamation of the world. When
this is reached the millennium is at hand,
The Pre- Millenarians maintain that the sec
ond advent is imminent when Christ does
comes and he may come at any moment. He
will set up kingdom on the earth and
reign with his saints during the millennium.
At the end of the millennium the Judgment

THE RECENT attempt to poison Mr.. Ar
mour and his family in Chicago only adds
one more 10 the numerous instances of the
danger Of Installing into stupid and ignorant
men wild and impracticable ideas on the
subject of labor, and of teaching them that
property is robbery it be tie
product Of labor-and thereby inducing
them to hate men with property, and to be-
lieve that efforts to destroy property owners
are justiiable and will rebound to the bene-
fit of labor. If the foolish and laundering at.
tempt referred to had succeeded, Mr.. Ar.
mour's immense stock yards, employing
thousands of workmen, would have been
closed, and the chief sufferers would have
been the employees whom the defeated, poi
soners, doubtless, really believed would
have been benefited by the success of their
insane and reckl less crime.

The Richmond Dispatch says nobody
proposes to fight the Supreme Court of the
United States, nor even to engage in a con-
test with that tribunal" If that DO so, then
all is plain sailing again, and tax payers
will proceed without let or hinderance in
settling their tax bills with coupons. But
wouldn't 1t be better for the State in every
conceivable respect for it to substitute
money for deprecated coupons in receipt
of taxes, by accepting the oondholders'
terms, by which all the coupons would be
refunded?

AMONG THE reasons the President gives
for reinstating Mr.. Benton in the position
of U. S. attorney for district in Missouri,
is that he "did not intend to condemn the
making of political speech by federal
official to his neighbors and friends, at any
time and place, when it was merely Incl
dental-if the speech itself was decent
and fair" If that be so, why did
the President send word to assistant
attorney general Ben Wilson that if he made
a political speech to his "neighbors and
friends during q proposed visit OF recrea-
tion to his home in West Virginia, when
such speech would of course have been
merely "incidontal," and "decent and fair
it would he considered az a resignation I?

ALEX ANDRIA.
THURSDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 10.

ALL WISE men are aware of the littleness
and meanness Of human nature, but the
lack of true manhood exhibited by many Of
the democratic congressman now in Wash
ington is surprising even to those who have
the poorest opinion of humanity. The con.
gressmen referred to, Senators Gs we'll as
Representatives, in their private converse
tons, attribute the recent democratic defeat
to the Presidents remarkable policy, and
say worse things about his administration,
and mention instances of its delinquencies
more damaging than the newspapers have
ever published, and then will 60 to the
White House and tell Mr.. Cleveland he is
the best President since Jacksons time, and
in their interviews for the press will attempt
to twist the defeat into glorious victory
aud it's manifest condemnation Of the Cleve-
land policy into an emphatic endorsement
thereof. The administration has over two
more years to run, and the congressman al
luded to have hopes of some or of more of
its favors during that time; but for their
own reputation and for that of the party to
which they belong, they should try to lessen
the difference between their public and their
private utterarces on a subject of so much
Importance. II they would tell the Presi-
dent what they tell their friends it might be
better for him it would certainly be better
for the dem ocratic party, in whose success
they profess to be, deeply interested.

SHOULD WE WORK FOR PROHIBITION?
1t cannot be doubted that there are
ssme honest a%dvocatss e temperance
who are frightened at the notion OF pro-
hibition by the never ending cry of
the anti-temperancs element that p,o-
hibition does not prohibit. BY the way,
il 1t DOESN'T why do thAy 5gh. it 30
Justify? In the first place, these faint
hearted temperance people believe the
assertion. Blindly following the lead of
those interested in proving the truth
they overlook the vast areas where the
endorsements of %prohibitory law il al
ready An insntimabls blessing to suffer-
ing humanity, and hx their gaze upon
those points where the liquor interest is
SO firmly sntrenshsd in the hearts Of the
majority that they are wiling law
breakers Tor its sake.
In the second place. under the in
|Husncs OF their belief they urge with
evident sincerity and, 1t must be adj
mittsd, witha show Of reason, that it is
worss than useless to enact laws which.
cannot be enforced. But even this
point admits of controversy. 1t must be
remembered that at certain times and
places 5 majority is only another name
for . mob. Mobs must always be led.
It Is certainly cAsier to lead them in the
direction which their lowest instincts
