After reading book, or an article, or an
item Of information from any reliable source,
before turning your attention to other things,
give two or three minutes quiet thought to
the subject that has just been presented to
your mind; see how much you can remember
concerning it and if there were any new
ideas, instructive facts, or hints of especial
interest that impressed you as real force your
self to recall them.
1t may be a little troublesome at first until
your mind gets under control and learns to
obey your will, but the very effort to think it
all out will engrave the facts so deeply that
they will not be affected by the rushing in of
new and different set of ideas; whereas if
the matter be given ne further consideration
at all, the impression you have received will
fade away so entirely that within a few weeks
you will be totally unable to remember more
than dim outline of them

Governor Martin on the Defensive.

a few months ago it looked more
than favorable that Governor Martin
would surely secure a denomination,
but for the past four or five weeks the
tables have turned against him, and
the Governor is now trying to explain
some of his actions. one of them espec~
ially-his calling out the militia to Par
sons against the labOring men, men
who were cOntending for their rights in
a bread and butter way. This stand of
the Governor showed him to be man
without backbone, man who could be
and had been worked by Gould and his
fOllowerS.a man who was acting as Gov
ernor, not in the interest of the people
at large, but in the interest Of mOnOp-
olieS and corporations. Yes, he is now
busy defending himself and trying to
get back into the good graceS and con-
fidence of the people, but from the stand
the republican papers of the state are
taking against him it looks as though
denomination is not SO sure. and if it
should be, the outlook for the demo-
cratic party will be brighter and
will 60 into the fight with determine
ton of meeting with success.

McCabe Must Go.

VIII the republican politicians tell US
what McCabe has done that he IS not to
receive their support for a re-nomina-
ton? Is he to be kicked out without a
cause? But to the point. The republic
can politicians are now engaged in play
ing the same game which they accuse
the southern democrats of doing. 4. g.:
anything to down a Niger" and they
so managed the play as to get cOlOred
convention called. which met at juno
ton City on the Sd, where they succeed
ed in pulling the wool over the eyes of
the cOlored gentlemen by getting them
to pass a resolution against the re-nOm-
inatiOn of +. =. McCabe. a cOlOTed man
who has served two terms, not only
with credit to himself but to the state,
and to endorse one Col. J. NJ. Brown, of
Topeka, for the nomination. This
proves that the republicans love for the
negro is not genuine and that they do
not intend to longer share the hOnOrS
of a republican state by giving any negro
a prominent Office and so are now work
ing with all their power to have McCabe
dOwned and to get a ticket nominated
which will be composed strictly Of
white men. In this action Of the white
republicans of the stale consistency has
ceased to be a virtue with them for they
virtually say let no negro apply. 1t
is Il shame that the colored people are
allowing themselves to be duped in such
a way. yet the time is coming and COM
ing fast when they will find out beyond
any doubt that instead of the republican
party being a friend to them, it is their
worst enemy, for in every instance,
which is now a matter of history, when
ever the colOred people refuse tObe con-
trolled by them they Immediately turn
a cold shoulder and give them kick.
This action, in trying to down McCabe,
as their schemings i'll the past, proves
that the republican party has no res
pect for the c3,0red people only as they
are kept in power by their votes, and
the same may be truthfully said of their
pretended love for the prohibition ele-
ment.

Edmunds Losing His Leadership.

1t has leaked out that in executive
session the partisan resolutions adopted
as the outcome of Senator Edmund'S
warfare upon the President, are totally
disregarded. Instead of rejecting the
nominations of every man named i'll the
plaza of a suspended Republican the
Democratic nominees are being con-
fnmed right along. In fact the Repub-
lican senators on the quiet are diSplac-
ing Edmunds from his Self-assumed
leadership. Nor is the overthrow of
the Vermonter an undeSeved or regret
able occurrence. He haSprOven himself
to be pretty small potatoes as leader.
As a Republican he has been selfish,
domineering and unworthy. As a SEN
ator he has done ip-Service to a good
government and tried to drag it down
when he thought he might rise individ-
ualIy thereby. As the hero of the self
STYLED ReformerS and Independents his
action and attitude have been laughably
incongruous. He has been insincere,
sophistical and indecently partisan. His
talents have been only a veneer to his
personal interests and there has been
iustenough virtue in him to barb his per-
sonal antipathies. He has been honest
enough to keep out of jail, but the hon

The New York Christian Adr0cate in
speaking of ministerial scandals says:
These scandals will do the Church
good, and not harm, provided the guilty
are strictly dealt with. No sympathy
should be shown any minister proven
guilty of crime; his heart may break,
and his family may be disgraced. but if
the proof is absolute he should be cut
off. If he repent. let him serve God in
private life. But what Of those where
there is a doubt? In the Church, as III
the State. where there is reasonable
doubt, such persons cannot be technic-
ally convicted; but if there is great
deal of evidence, even though not
sufficient to prove their guilt beyond a
doubt, they ought to step down and out,
relying upon the providence Of God to
vindicate them if innocent"
