CHRISTIAN SCIENCE.
An Cn6eliever Says It Is the Art Of LIZ Ing
Easily, and Of Knowing q Fool q,
Sight-Etc.

Siyht-Etc.
To THE EDITOR OF THE TINEs:-
Now that Mrs. Rothrock, the
Christian Scientist, is about to appear
in Bellevue, l wish to call general at
tention to the glorious work she has
accomplished during the short time
she has been in HALEY.
The little girl afflicted with St.
Vitus's dance is nearly cured. The
only symptoms remaining are a Pc
cuiiarly mysterious winking and that
clear, silvery cackle with which the
Christian Scientist is wont to manifest
her JOY at such a plenteous crop of
fools.
Grandma Richards states openly
to all inquirers that his hydraulic ap-
paratus is working better than it has
for long time.
OF the hundreds treated while in
Haley, these are the only onts show
ing any marked improvement. 1t is
estimated that she has taken in $4,000
or more, in this town alone.
1t is to be hoped that the people of
Bellevue will show themselves less
gullible by game that is already too
old and decrepit to work except with
the freshest, most verdant localities.
1t should be borne in mind that
this is technically the same thing as
faith cure; but, instead of having
faith yourself, you only need to give
81 to an expert in the faith business.
1t is evident that those people who
are still trying frantically to call Gods
attention to their own little belly
ache or rheumatism, forget that it is
notorious fact that God has not paid
the slightest attention to even the
most important affairs of men for
some thousands of years, at least.
lie let's millions die by famine, by
plague, and by war, and He never
lifts finger to change the course of
events. How absurd it is, then, to
suppose that He is going to cure
toothache aud stir up torpid livers at
the bidding of Mrs Rothrock
God sees the storm and flood an
initiate HIS churches and His most
devoted followers along with rebel
lious sinners. He looks on while His
holy wood is used to build fire to
cook the missionary who thought he
had call to convert some Of Gods
savage children. Twenty are born
where there is room for no more than
one; the nineteen must perish-and
by most cruel methods-yet God
seems satisfied with the way things
are going.
The writer has listened to one of
the thirty dollars course lectures,
and can assure the reader that it was
neither more interesting nor instruct
i've than sermon by good Method
list brother. Christian Science is the
knowledge and art of lying with easy,
graceful spontaneity, aud of knowing
fool at sight.
If one is not born that way, it re-
quires years of practise to prevaricate
in the artless, happy manner of
Christian Scientist.

Hon. William L. Putnam. of Port.
land, Maine. the Democratic candidate
for Governor OF that State, is an old
and experienced politician and lawyer,
who hns been identified with the Demo-
cratic party from tho outset of his
career. He is in the fifty-second year
OF his age, having been born III 1886 in
Bath, Sagadahoc couuty, Maine.
Young Putnam pursued his enry
studies in his native town, and COM
pletei his course Mt Bowdoin College,
from which institution he was graduated
in the year 1856. Soon afterwards he
was appointed Assistant Clerk Of the
State House of Representatives and
subsequently entered upon the study OF
the pro- ssiun which he has since pur-
sued with eminent success. In 1853 he
was admitted to the bar, and in tie
same year removed to Cumberland
county. locating ut Portland, which
place has since been his home. MIR.
Putnam wOs first connected with the
fisheries disputes by being employed us
lawyer by Secret Try b Iyard t, me- for
and the detuiled information he thus
acquired induced the Secretary to ask
him to- act with Professor Angel in the
negotiations with the British Commis-
sioners, which position he accepted.
Mr.. Putnam was also member of the
Fisheries Conference which recently
convened Mt WaIhingt IN. He has baen
nominated several times for important
Offices. and made IL strong race, es-
pecially in the campaigns for Justice of
the Supreme Court, of Maine, but was
not elected. He IL one of the Trustees

conferred on him the degree of L. L. D .
He has not been regarded as q violent
partisan, and his nomination ns the
Democratic s'anCard- bearer for the
Governorship mny he regarded a. n
tribute to real ability and fitness rather
than as reward for mere partisan ser
vice. He is In the broadcast sense n

courageous, and in the social and liter
airy life of his city he is qnite M i'm

In discussing the probable future OF

In discussing the probable future OF
railroad construction in the United
States, Bradstreet's puts the contem-
plated mileage. at fifteen to twenty
thousand Understanding all pro-
jected enterprises which have a far-off
look. This estimate is not an over
large one when it is taken into con-
sideration that the process of land
acquisition by individuals, syndicates
and combinations of individuals was
never at greater ebb than now. The
purchasers and owners of large or
small tracts of timber, coal, ore and
agricultural lands can only make them
valuable-or greatly increase their
values-by providing means of trans
portation for the development Of re-
sources which must remain largely
unprodu ctive until a market can be
veniently reached. Following this
necessity, the building Of short lines
will characterize railroad activity in
the near future.

The mormon Tncocracy.

There can be no doubt but that the
Latter Day Saints hold to the supe-
periority Of the Church over the
State, in all things pertaining to the
temporal government OF Utah. 1t
was true that when Mormonism was
founded, Joseph Smiths idea was to
keep in political harmony with the
institutions of the Republic as evil
denced by his declaration promulgat-
cd in 1889. The Mormon leader
said:
"There is a principle, also, which
we are bound to be exercised with
that is in common with all men, such
as governments, and laws, and regu-
lations in the civil concerns of life
T11 principle guarantees to all parties
eeCls and classes, equal rights; they
are things that pertain to this life
therefore all are alike interested ; they
make our responsibilities one to
wards another in matters of corrupt
ble things. Hence We say that the
Constitution of the United States is 8
glorious standard; it is founded in the
wisdom of God"
With the apparent success of the
new creed, and with his pride and
love Of power quickened by delusive
dream Of universal dominion for his
Church, the prophet of the new dis
pensation, in 1874, gave out for the
guidance Of his flock this doctrine:
As the world is governed too much,
and as there is not a nation or dynasty
now occupying the earth, which ac-
kno Wedges Almighty God as their
laW-giver and as crowns won by
blood, by blood must be main.
